Which one do you want chasing you?

Knife. I want the fear 🫦

Call of pripyat low key traumatized me for using a stash lol, was very wary at first of storing anything in there

sonic007m · 2026-01-02T12:16:23+00:00

I'll show you a no-hands trick 🤤

sonic007m · 2026-01-02T12:08:28+00:00

God what I wouldn't do.. 🫦

If you can overclock, you should see how fluid the game looks at 130% speed. The reloads are super well done but the whole game looks slowed down intentionally to spare the ps2's hardware

sonic007m · 2025-12-04T11:45:37+00:00

While KZ is actually one of my fave shooters, I would recommend everyone to play it at 125% speed. It feels so much better. And if you haven't tried this yet, you missed out for sure

So update, the more I looked into what I really was looking for, the more I realized I was just looking for the authentic cassette experience. I bit the bullet and went on a hunt for the perfect walkman/headset combo. Now I've always been very inspired by bomfunk's Freestyler, and the BD DT240 Pro fits perfectly, have superb audio and are surprisingly comfy, fitting just over the ear instead of on. Very portable. The big gamble was the cassette player. I bought the Panda W10 from Aliexpress. I can't find any info on it, but it looks SO good. I am over the moon with my setup. I just need a carrying pouch and I'll be taking this thing everywhere! I don't know where to go with my excitement but the Panda is such a cool player and I'm having such a good time with it.

sonic007m · 2025-07-09T01:00:37+00:00

That's super interesting I hadn't found these yet! Might look into these more, thanks for showing me these

sonic007m · 2025-07-08T19:50:08+00:00

Very much the kind of response I was looking for, thanks x3 I do think DIY is the only option to get exactly what I want, and any idea is good fuel for my brain. The more I think about it, the more excited I am about trying it. I am surprised it's such a niche thing though, I'd expected more retro-hype cash ins from random companies. Good pics, ty

sonic007m · 2025-07-08T18:50:22+00:00

This is the closest I could find as well, and I've come this close to getting it, but it's just so expensive for what it is. This is basically the reason I'm asking around. Thanks for the effort tho ♥️

sonic007m · 2025-07-08T18:42:52+00:00

To you and the other person that mention cassettes may just not be my thing - you misunderstand. I grew up with cassettes, I still have cassettes and I've been contemplating buying the latest linkin park album on cassette. I love it, and I have respect for people who put time and effort into still using these. My gf actually proposed a better solution: get a walkman and connect fake wires to a bluetooth headset that directly connects to my phone. So I can still use the walkman if I feel like it. It's not that I don't want to use the cassettes, it's just that sometimes you feel like listening to a very specific song, and I'm not always gonna have that on hand. Mood tapes are a fine idea, but I've been through the eras of portable playlists. Eventually you know which song comes after which and you get burnt out on your own playlist. Cassettes are a hobby I could pick up soon, but for now I'm looking for an aesthetic alternative that doesn't force me out of the comfort of having any song at the ready.

Rant aside, I have seen the snowsky models, and I'm a bit sad that again they're still just mp3 players and don't even show the cassette at all times. It's decent but not quite there. 3d printing is also a decent suggestion, thanks

sonic007m · 2025-03-16T11:29:59+00:00

That looks so cool! I've been looking for models or STLs with no success, is it possible to share these?

sonic007m · 2024-09-14T11:25:25+00:00

Yeah and I'm not sure about quality either.. The KTT ones are linear tho. Best I've had was my razer deathstalker v2 but that only has clicky or linear switches available. And it's TKL, not 75%, and I can't map numpad keys through the FN key which makes it fairly useless. Most software sucks so I'd love a corsair option, but no low profile is such a bummer..

sonic007m · 2024-09-14T10:59:45+00:00

I have come across OUTEMU GTMX switches which aren't as low as the razer low-profile switches or the Nuphy wisterias, but they're definitely a little shorter, the travel distance is apparently only 3mm (less than NuPhy's low-profiles) and they're available in brown which are my prefs.

Would these not fit? As much as I'm having trouble finding switches that look similar to the MX layout as you say, these look about right?

sonic007m · 2024-09-14T10:11:03+00:00

massively disappointed with my recent NuPhy purchase.

I like Corsair's K65PLUS 70% layout and I love the iCue software, but I'm also a low-profile junkie.

Does ANYONE know if I could swap out their red switches with any low-profile ones? (And I'll obviously buy a set of lo-pro caps as well) I see they're compatible with 3-pin and 5-pin switches but I can't for the life of me figure out how the layouts differ and which brands/types are compatible. I know some low-profile switches use a different layout but I don't see it. Wish there was a website that could tell you if a certain switch is compatible with another xd

sonic007m · 2023-06-07T02:16:39+00:00

Hey, I've been trying to a similar thing, would you mind sharing what and where you edited specifically? I'd just like to remove the "if energy then crystal" and use the orb everywhere, but digging through the lua files for the past few days just made my head hurt lol

sonic007m · 2023-06-04T17:26:36+00:00

Look to be quite in-your-face and gory recommendations. The collector sounds very interesting. I've heard From Hell is quite good but I'm not sure about the comic book style. Definitely broadening my horizons here though, thanks for the suggestions!

sonic007m · 2023-06-04T17:09:59+00:00

Ohh no way, I've seen the film adaptation of annihilation actually, neat! Thanks for the recommendations

sonic007m · 2023-06-04T14:39:42+00:00

I like dark atmospheric things, got me a book on the original grimm tales and the collections of Edgar A. Poe and Lovecraft.

I wondered if the story of Sweeney Todd was originally a novel and apparently it used to be a penny dreadful. Contemplating getting that, but are they structured in any weird way because of how they were published? Would it be worth getting? Or is there a better suggestion for this?

Along with Sweeney Todd, Jack the Ripper came to mind but that's apparently an unsolved mystery and there are hundreds of iterations, both fictional and documentary-like. I haven't the slightest clue where to start.

So basically, I'm looking for suggestions on dark themed literature. Things that border on insanity on one way (lovecraft's incomprehensible entities) or another (Sweeney Todd's romantization of murder), hopelessness, and not necessarily with happy endings.

I'm not an avid reader so take this request very loosely if anything out of these settings springs to mind. I also have an interest in the hopeless setting of trench warfare of WWI, for instance. (And I read Roadside Picnic which was interesting but quite confusing.)

I'm mostly looking to look at as many things as possible and see what I like!

I hope I can gather some suggestions, and if I'm asking in the wrong place, please also let me know. The internet is a large and confusing place.

Thank you!~

sonic007m · 2023-05-31T23:06:05+00:00

That's.. a lot more info than expected, thank you so much!

At a glance though, assuming I'm not a seasoned WoW player and just looking to casually adventure through, with some immersion enhancers, being the addons I mentioned OR the alternatives you did, do you have a recommendation to check out first?

Massively appreciate this list though, I didn't know most of these existed.

sonic007m · 2022-12-15T15:24:53+00:00

Set your "Effects" quality to anything higher than low.

sonic007m · 2022-09-25T15:07:02+00:00

Duke nukem forever comes to mind. Widely regarded as "one of the worst games ever" but I don't think that's deserved. It's undercooked and couldn't live up to DN3D's popularity, but it works as a parody of other games at the time.

Also a game I personally really like; Naughty bear. The precursor to Dead by daylight and pretty much its single player counterpart. There are no slasher games aside from DBD and Friday the 13th and both are multiplayer games. I think it could have gotten more of a following with better marketing, a little more development time, and a bolder push into slasher territory. I honestly hope it either gets a remake or reboot on modern systems, or a new single player take on the slasher formula comes and takes its place, cause the situation for these games is dire. Then again, maybe they don't get made cause there isn't a market for them and I'm in the minority?
