overview for Cmar

I feel like this gem of a game has pretty much been forgotten. Never expected to see someone mention it. Very atmospheric and one of my favorite walking simulator games.

Give Vintage Story a shot. It’s Minecraft as a survival game and much more than that.

Looks beautiful too.

I just can’t get excited for GTA anymore after V, especially with the shark code floodgates being open with that entry.

Even with all of the good parts of V, I just found the game to be really boring and bland. Might have to do with the setting itself as early 2000s are just nowhere near as interesting as the 80s and 90s were.

The humor in SA was over the top but never unfunny. Like a playble mashup of all the best stoner movies from that era.

I have no doubt that VI will look good and probably play good (IV had a much more interesting physics model than V imo) beyond that I expect it to be in the same ballapark as V was.

If looking from top left to right my favourites are 3,4 and 6.

What game do you play to just chill? in c/asklemmy

[–] Cmar 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve seen quite a few mods making it even more immersive. Also seems to be quite playable on the steam deck even with mods.

Thanks for the reply.

How's Minecraft as a singleplayer chill game? Been debating on getting it, just to explore and survive pretty much.

Seems like it can go a long way.

Pure black theme makes some of the text (ie number of upvotes, messages, community name etc) unreadable (self.avelon)

As the title says, the shade of gray used for Pure Black theme makes most of the text using that shade borderline unreadable.

This problem is not present when using any other dark theme other than Pure Black.

Please could this be changed so that the text is as readable as with other themes?

Abandoned farm (lemmy.world)

Running across various different places on rides is one of my favorite things. With abandoned and run down locations having a special place in my heart.

While out on my last ride, I ran across this abandoned massive live stock farm. Most of it has been overgrown with various plants and weeds.

The place is huge, with a large part still explorable. Photo above seems to be were the animals were kept, with a copy paste building right next to it that is still full of hay.

Just got myself a D7200 (lemmy.world)

I've gifted my D7100, alongside a 35mm DX lens to my girlfriend.

For a few weeks I was debating on going FF, with something like a D750 or maybe even a D810, but finally decided against it.

Found a fantastic deal on a D7200 in pretty much mint condition, as the guy using it really took good care of camera. Even got a new original Nikon battery in the whole package.

The first lens that I got for it is another 35mm DX, as I loved using that lens on the D7100. It's probably one of the best DX lenses you can get (at least from all the lenses I've used).

How’s everyone enjoying Baldur’s Gate 3 so far? (self.steamdeck)

submitted 1 year ago by Cmar to c/[email protected]

I’m using medium settings with a few (clouds, fog) low ones. FSR is off for now, I did test it briefly on Ultra Quality and did not really notice any blurrong )though it was a brief test) The FPS I’m getting is mostly above 30 but varies a lot inbetween 25-40 (40 is my refresh rate cap).

The controls are easy to get used to and cover all the functions well. Only 4 hours into the game but really enjoying it so far.

How’s everyone finding the performance to be like after the inital few hours?

Being able to see exact number of players playing could be an interesting metric Blizz might not be wanting to share when it comes to WoW, wondering if we'll ever see it on Steam.
