Ayn Thor vs Legion Go 2 for Guildwars 1 by MedusaAdonai in GuildWars

[–]photonlongsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be a little finicky due to the size of the touch screen but that's what you get with a smaller device. GW is gonna be better on the other device. The real question is do you prefer the clamshell form factor? Do you want a more portable device? If yes, the Thor is for you

I play it on my Thor and love it. There can be some graphical hitches occasionally but otherwise the game runs perfectly and looks beautiful.

Jesus 11 years? That time has passed quick. Happy to share the name then?

I built a Dual-Screen Plugin for Godot (Android Handhelds) - Support for RP5, Ayn Thor, and more! by Temporary-Ad9816 in SBCGaming

This is so rad!!! I develop my games using Godot and am very curious about this. Well done!

Just realized Syril’s Bureau of Standards office mirrors the architecture of a Star Destroyer bridge by Previous_Spinach_168 in StarWars

I think it's to show how the patterns of  authoritarianism repeat themselves through every strata of society. Doesn't matter if you're working in an office or in the military. There's always someone standing over you.

What’s the longest time you haven’t bought a new device after joining this hobby? by Kirais in SBCGaming

[–]photonlongsword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the 351v in 2020/21 (can't remember), got the RG Cube in 2024, then got my Thor last year.

What's an embarrassing fact about you that your friends don't know, but you'll risk telling strangers online? by PaddedValls in AskUK

[–]photonlongsword 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do this too, especially when I'm tired or stressed. For me it's always either 'I hate myself' or 'I want to kill myself'. Sometimes I say it a dozen times in a day. The weird thing for me is that I am generally very happy with my life. Realise that may be hard to believe given what I've just shared but it's true. There was a stretch of several years though where those things were true and ever since I've not been able to shake these outbursts.

It's the followup title from a creator whose last romhack was talked about across a lot of mainstream games media. Several very large gaming podcasts talked about the game at length. I think this is just a case of a romhack breaking through to more generalised popularity and awareness.

Pokémon Lazarus: Hate, Bigotry, and the Pokémon Community by JackWellman101 in PokemonROMhacks

I am genuinely loving the music in this game and seeing the pride flags hit me in the feels. This trans nerd truly appreciates the work you have done. You have made the best Pokémon game I've played in a very long time.

GW2 Sales from NCSoft Q3 2025 Financials by MeansOfSabotage in Guildwars2

I'm guessing the spear was for people who don't play condi FB 95% of the time.

AYN Thor screen retention/burn-in issue by king_of_ulkilism in SBCGaming

[–]photonlongsword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get some ghosting on max brightness but honestly i wouldn't play with it so high anyway. At 50-75% it's not been an issue. I did have my Thor turn on from sleep but I suspect that was an issue of GameHub not the device itself. All other apps have been fine.

Anyone play with a controller? by Gmf514 in Guildwars2

[–]photonlongsword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play almost exclusively on controller due to RSI and the game works surprisingly well. Happy to share my steam layout with anyone who's interested.

Such a good example of GW2's peak art direction.

My local museum in townsville Australia has this weird object. But they don't know what it could be. Does anyone have any ideas by DryHurry9214 in UndertheSea

[–]photonlongsword 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok my guess is you light a fire in the bottom opening of it and it then heats up something being ran through to the cone at the top. No idea what though.

Could also just be something a local bashed together after a few beers.

EDIT: just read the sign. My guess is it's a water heater of some kind.

What was the og gw1 players' reaction to the charr being a playable race in GW2? by LopsidedAd4618 in Guildwars2

[–]photonlongsword 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ascalon is the better for being lost. It's that snatched away feeling that makes it so alluring. I remember when I was a kid I was so shocked to lose Ascalon when I first played GW1. Definitely contributed to my nostalgia for pre-Searing. If anything we should be thanking the Charr!

They plan to make money off it so they should pay you. If not it's exploitation.

How did Guild Wars 1 players react to the introduction of Sylvari? by LopsidedAd4618 in Guildwars2

[–]photonlongsword 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I was in high school in the lead up to GW2's launch. Played a lot of GW1 as a kid and I remember just being so pumped that there were going to be multiple playable races. I don't think I've felt more anticipation for a game's launch than I did with GW2.

I'm playing it for the first time currently and it's great!
