That's nice. The best kind of fast food.

What’s the issue with Fallout 3?

You can clearly see how it interferes itself.

Skin colour, patterns and feathers and scales heavily affect the appearance of the species. Also soft tissue, muscle and fat distribution. These things are hard to figure out from fossils. A lot of research is based on assumptions, we can guess what they most likely look like, but we don’t know for certain.

We don't even know what they really look like.

[–] cloudless@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago

Exactly. That's the idea, and Copilot seems to understand it.

There are different input methods. I use phoenetic one so I only have to type 3 letters and select the character.

There is also "quick" input method which you only need to pay attention to 2 parts of the character when you type, then it gives you a selection of the most likely characters.

Thought you were a PlayStation fanboy for a second.

Yes. For example in Chinese underground metro is 地下鐵路 roughly “ground under metal road”.

The shorthand is 地鐵, roughly “ground metal”. And everyone understands that as the metro.

I nearly killed my new lawn because I didn't water it enough.

Just go back a few days and let me water it well.

A new community has been created on:

On the original instance, there are plenty of comments on every post.

But on PieFed there are none:

Is there any way to retrieve the comments so they can show up on PieFed?

 

I don’t understand why the majority of cozy games have a calendar system and or time limits. I already have a limited time on earth and I don’t want game devs to artificially restrict how I spend time in game.

I have to drop games like Stardew Valley because of the calendar system. I know there is no strict time limits and I can just wait for the following year if I miss an event. But that just makes the game stressful. Also the day/night cycle is extremely quick. Every action I take I have to look at the time and consider the duration.

Similarly in Persona series, why do they have the calendar system and restrict how much you can do with social interactions? When I play an RPG I like to take my time to explore as I want.

I am writing this because I finally found a game that feels cozy, which is Fantasy Life i. No calendar, no time limits, live as many different lives as I want. I prefer games to be games.

 

Any summer sale?

 

Is the Steam Deck performance struggling with new AAA games? Should I be concerned buying a Steam Deck now?

I'm guessing/hoping not because most game developers would optimise the games for the Switch 2 and Xbox Series S which have similar performances as the Deck.

I think 30 fps (consistent) is perfectly fine, and I don't mind medium details.

I am wondering if results from this community would be different.

 

For me, I am hoping to see discounts on:

  • Steam Deck OLED
  • Expedition 33 (probably worth the full price but I am not sure if the timing based combat is for me)
  • Fantasy Life i
  • Indiana Jones and the Great Circle
 

I love watching game reviews on YouTube, but I find many reviewers sharing these annoyances:

  • Loud background music making it difficult to listen to the actual review
  • Spending way too much time talking about the story. I only want to know the theme of the story, not the entire plot
  • Making it a game tutorial. It is helpful to briefly describe the game mechanics so I can find out whether the game is for me. But it becomes excessive when you explain it in detail.

What I want to hear more:

  • Whether the game is good
  • How it compares with other games in the genre
  • How is the music in the game?

Game channels I like/recommend:
TheKisekiNut, JohnRiggs, MortismalGaming, davidvinc, gameranx, ircha

Can someone recommend other good gaming channels? I especially like retro games.
