It is very good, I'm quite excited for their 1.0 release.

The developer's office is a few blocks from my house so I noticed a few local easter eggs in early access. I never thought I'd be interested in working in game dev but apparently they have 4 day weeks...... kind of tempting to send them a resume

which Saint Row was it where there were billboards advertising idk medium services or whatever and then if you called it after a certain character had died they'd come back as a zombie?

i have a ps4 controller. i can make it charge with my vita charger, and i can make it charge with an anker power bank. it does not charge with either an iphone charger or a different phone charger i use (both bog standard usb-a chargers). it only draws like 800ma, and the phone chargers are 1 and 2 amps so i don't think that's an issue

anyone have a clue why it won't charge on the phone chargers? i've tried it with the cable from the vita charger, and that doesn't work either so it's not due to the cable itself

i want to use this controller for remote play in my office, but charging it is proving obnoxious. i already have enough poo poo plugged in that i don't want to have yet another single-use power brick plugged in. and it's just kind of annoying to have to discharge the power bank for reasons i dont understand

carry on then

(and can't post for 10 years!)

the switch dock can't be powered by a macbook pro power brick because the dock needs 15V power delivery that the apple brick doesn't provide. could this be similar?

i don't think so - the vita charger says 5v at 1.5A and the chargers that don't work are 5v at 1A (apple) and 2.1A (iogear). maybe some kind of negotiation isn't happening? but then i'd expect the anker power bank to also not work. maybe im missing something though

What the heck was up with calling it Grind in the US anyway? Does "jet set" mean something rude in American?

nah, although "jet setter" has a bougie vibe to it

i think sega was just all in on the edgy skateboarding craze back then and rollerblades were comparatively lame

it's fun as heck and actually hasn't aged that badly, especially if you use some shaders (RG503 uses some sort of retroarch + kodi frontend). tbf they did call the xbox-only sequel "jet set radio future", which was also baller

I remember the dualshock 3 needed to negotiate something with its charger so you couldn’t use dumb chargers but I don’t think that’s an issue with the 4. are you sure it’s a DualShock 4?

Wait does imgur gently caress thigns up or something? I'm at least able to read the titles on the original photo but that's... like three pixels.

E: testing to see if it dies it again

it looks like imgur messed it up. i can read falcon, quake, dungeon, and might & magic on the boxes, but the sign on the left just looks like a bunch of messy gibberish

It's not a sign, it's a box with a label taped on.

it's also a super long time from when you get the first half to even being able to get to the area that has the second. I went round the albinauric village like 3 times assuming I'd missed something then when I finally got to the ice zone suddenly a spirit pipes up with "hey the other medallion is in castle sol over there lol".

the fire giant fight was intense tho. The first time I got to phase 2 I did actually go "holy poo poo" in the cutscene

fire giant, for some reason, kept deciding to hitch himself on the geometry in his arena for me so I put the game down to have a break and never picked it up again

Played some Zork last night. Started out as just testing a new keyboard, but it's pretty dang good at sucking you in.

Only stopped playing when I got too deep to remember things by heart and couldn't find my old maps. But still played so long I only woke up now (15:43).

9/10 game.

E: and by the way my wrist is hurting, the keyboard definitely needs a support :( (also I'm old and decrepit).

Reading the Fallout thread I'm Games, and it's 100% like that slurp juice tweet to people who don't play Fallout 76. I'm sure they're having fun, but it just reads like they're in a cult.

(I'd buy it in a second if it didn't require an Internet connection all the time.)
