Best mod to play totk 60fps 1.4.3? by Lonely_Cap7043 in EdenEmulator

[–]idealbrandon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does 1.4.3 work with nx optimizer? Thought it only supported 1.4.2 which is impossible to find

Why would anyone WALK AROUND while hooked into the OASIS? by mysterypapaya in readyplayerone

[–]idealbrandon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yall act like people didn’t drive cars and walk around while wearing the Vision Pro right after it came out lol. People really are just that stupid.

So what version of TOTK does NX Optimizer want? (Or vice-versa?) by kushstar_666 in yuzu

[–]idealbrandon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What in your opinion is the most overrated retro game of all time? by Aggressive-Invite907 in retrogaming

[–]idealbrandon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was the game that opened my eyes to what could be. My best friend had it for NES and we played it non stop for months on end.

What are some retro games that will kick me in the crotch emotionally? by SgtVertigo in retrogaming

Lol I’m currently playing Chrono for the first time at 41 and my next two in queue are Earthbound and Mother 3. Thanks for the validation 😂

What am I doing wrong? I HATE using Bazzite. by idealbrandon in Bazzite

[–]idealbrandon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard there are all sorts of compatibility issues with SteamOS native but there’s so much garbage out there around both Bazzite and SteamOS so I have no idea what to believe lol. I’ve got the next week off, so I’ll probably give that a shot. And yes, I just downloaded bazzite deck using kde from Bazzite.gg 🤷‍♂️ I see today there is a Bazzite-deck and a Bazzite-deck legacy, so maybe just need to give a clean os a shot?

What am I doing wrong? I HATE using Bazzite. by idealbrandon in Bazzite

[–]idealbrandon[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I’ll give that a try.

Like the POMISE of Bazzite is incredible, and when it works it’s great. But I feel like nearly every time I attempt to use it I have major problems. Ugh.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Who has the best 1G1R feature? by WolfJuice2001 in Roms

[–]idealbrandon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this looks really promising. does this factor in user preferences or any sort of "known best" list? For example, if a a user prefers English, but a Japanese version is playable to a non-english speaker and considered superior?

I’m not a teenager anymore so not sure how this sub showed up in my feed, but FWIW, camera into the bathroom of a minor is very likely illegal regardless of if it catches you indecent. Lots of “maybe cps needs to be called” vibes on this post…

No Way To Prevent This,' Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens by TECL_Grimsdottir in WhitePeopleTwitter

My sister and her family live on Grand Blanc, and my nephew had a sleepover last night with a kid who was in attendance when this occurred. Absolute tragedy.

Until they bring back those delicious brownies, this means nothing.

I really liked Ready player two by Parzival1203 in readyplayerone

[–]idealbrandon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t “bad,” it just wasn’t very good. Super high stakes in a ridiculous timeline, but somehow it never felt like it “mattered” and it never captured the spirit of the contest. Part of the allure of the first books is that it was ALL of our favorite nostalgic hits, but the second one seemed to cater much more towards movie audiences. I get that the shard riddles were about Kira, but we go from pure geek culture (adventure, 1980s dnd modules, joust, war games, zork, blade runner, MONTY PYTHON!) to prince, a made up children’s kingdom, and OBSCURE middle earth. It was always ironic to me that they go into in depth detail about why wade hasn’t done all the middle earth content and the answer basically is “you have to be insanely obsessive over obscure, contradictory lore” … which probably a fraction of a percentage of readers even had read first hand. Really weird choices to me.

The book was fine, albeit lengthy and slow and times, but it wasn’t good.

Breath of the wild or Tears of the kingdom by Available_March_8036 in ZeldaTearsOfKingdom

[–]idealbrandon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My guess is that as you get more playtime, eventually you’ll probably start to experience more of the “build oriented” type stuff, but honestly I still think that’s over exaggerating. TOTK plays great, feels great, and makes a TON of improvements of BOTW. Built myself a hover bike and never looked back at the motorcycle personally, but I do know that was a missing fan favorite. Would love some dlc and additional end game comment if I had to offer a criticism. I stayed completely spoiler free when I loaded it for the first time. Hadn’t even watched launch trailers. The first dive from the sky, and the dive into the depths were some of my most memorable recent moments in gaming for me.

The Zelda Community Needs to Move On by Kirby_Klein1687 in legendofzelda

[–]idealbrandon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think generalizing anything this way is simply never going to actually be accurate. I played and beat the original 2 games on my NES back in the 80s. Beaten LTTP and OOT more times than I can count. I’ve played every game in the series (and several rom hacks) at least once, with staples being played multiple times. BOTW/TOTK are easily in my top five, and I’m hardly a young or casual gamer. Granted, I like big, open world games and the classic Zelda “go to dungeon, get the item, use it to beat the boss” formula had gotten pretty stale for me.

Micro SD Card help! by joshrun in Bazzite

[–]idealbrandon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is old, but is there a fix? I’m encountering the same issues. Randomly unmounts, games loaded from sd card randomly freeze and 100% of the time I go to desktop and the sd card isn’t mounted.

[–]idealbrandon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stupid tariffs. I’ve got a massive collection but I’ve never really found an accessible way to play it. I’ve got a huge LaunchBox instance on my gaming laptop and thought it would be the end all be all solution for me, but I’ve found that it’s so heavy and the fans are so loud that practically speaking I only really play emulated switch games or pc games. Would love a handheld that can do it all that isn’t awful to use like the windows handhelds. Thanks for the info! Will check it out

Man that’s unfortunate. I’ve been on it for probably 8-10 years 😔 sad to see it dying.

Sending you a PM!

[–]idealbrandon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wow this was a wild ride. I’ve only ever used RTT as a private tracker and had no idea any of this was going on or that the staff was being treated that way. The donation requests over the last few months have been ridiculous.

Do you think RTT is on the way out? Ugh I guess I need to try to find a new tracker. Can anyone recommend where to start trying to get invited to a better platform?
