pulido@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•All four major web browsers are about to lose 80% of their funding | by Dan Fabulich | Apr, 2025English1·6 hours agoIt’s mainly because making GUIs primarily in code is cumbersome and outdated.
pulido@lemmings.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish1·6 hours agoThat’s fair. I think a hybrid solution of owning/streaming is best.
Free streaming sites are the easiest way to watch something and we should be recommending them more often.
pulido@lemmings.worldto News@lemmy.world•McDonald’s Blames Trump ‘Uncertainty’ for Worst Sales Since COVID2·7 hours agoNo, it’s anti-consumerism.
This generation has sold itself out to the lowest bidder, so it makes some sense that we have to look to the past for how to live with more self-respect.

pulido@lemmings.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Borderlands 4 - State of Play Deep Dive | PS5 GamesEnglish1·7 hours agoYes.
pulido@lemmings.worldOPto Games@lemmy.world•Why don't Oblivion and Morrowind turn the character model when you run in different directions?English13·7 hours agoIn the original version of Oblivion, they run like they do in Morrowind.
It was until Skyrim that Bethesda properly implemented partially turning the character when running sideways or diagonally.
pulido@lemmings.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Game design question : how to make a "trapped" player character?English51·7 hours agoPretty sure your concept is flawed from the start.
It might sound nice as a ‘what-if’ scenario, but as soon as you get into any of the details, it falls apart and hopefully shows us why games and stories are typically focused on the people doing something.
Now, if you want something a bit more likely to succeed, you can make a “Damsel in Distress Simulator.” From the get-go, you can start to think of gameplay mechanics like combing your hair, talking with guards, taking care of birds, etc etc. The ideas just flow, instead of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.
In fact, this could loop around to your idea of helping the rescuers by opening up opportunities for the princess to sabotage her captors. You can have a Majora’s Mask-like timer which keeps track of how far the knight is from saving you.

Aren’t there enough PVP games that center around rewarding whoever puts more time into the game?

pulido@lemmings.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish12·7 hours agoYou should have an adblocker like ublock origin or Adnauseam installed.
pulido@lemmings.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish13·7 hours agoDunning-kruger effect on full display right here.
This guy thinks he knows so much, yet doesn’t even know about adblockers. Sad.
pulido@lemmings.worldOPto Games@lemmy.world•Why don't Oblivion and Morrowind turn the character model when you run in different directions?English1·13 hours agoAs for thr PC, automatically turning the player is honestly a bad idea in first person. It can be disorienting for some palyers.
I’m referring to 3rd person. You can’t see the character model in first person.
NPCs don’t have a camera following them, so they can’t run in a different direction than what it’s facing.
pulido@lemmings.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck)English1·13 hours agoHm. I was able to play it without issue on my Linux computer.
I don’t see a reason why the Steam Deck would be unable to play it or have any issues that I didn’t.
If buying it is a concern (which it should be), you can always torrent it.

pulido@lemmings.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Looking for a local co-op game to play with my SO (Steam Deck)English5·13 hours agoBroaden your horizons, start using emulators.
Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
Super Mario Wonder
Any of the Warriors games (just don’t buy it, don’t reward them for releasing the same damn game 20+ times)
Legend of Mana (highly recommended, please don’t sleep on this)
Destroy All Humans 2
Ratchet: Deadlocked
Divinity: Original Sin
Resident Evil 6
Halo: Master Chief Collection
Lego Star Wars
The Tales games are long and go up to 4 players. I’d recommend them if you have more people to join.
Be prepared for a few roadbumps while you acclimate yourself to using emulators. It won’t be smooth at first, but it gets easier the more familiar you become with it.
Kirby.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land can be played co-op. You can play it for free on your computer using the Torzu emulator.
Also The Sims.

You may have to go through the uBlock Origin settings and add/update all the blocklists.
