I went straight for the Steam Deck version and it is a perfect handheld game. The fights don’t drag on too long, and the suspend / resume is really nice to have.

I really wish there were more viable alternatives to Youtube, but since so many peoples’ livelihoods rely on having the largest audience possible, they’re pretty much forced to use YouTube.

Imaginary Characters was always a big source of inspiration for me while writing. Glad to see them exploring the transition to Lemmy / kbin

As far as the wider world is concerned, there’s not much of a difference between a pre recorded event and a recording of a live event. We watched for the announcements, and those are going to come out with or without E3

I’ve been playing the GameCube original on Steam Deck and Can confirm it’s a perfect game for the system

I feel like it’s a whole new world of social media for me. I’ve found myself joining smaller communities across the Lemmyverse and in Discord, and it feels more engaging and less toxic. I’ve even picked up Tik Tok after years of Redditors telling me it’s the plague, and I’ve found that it has more welcoming niche communities (like Booktok, Writertok, Tears of the Kingdom) than Reddit ever had.

I’ve been LOVING SF6. It’s the first fighting game that has ever truly clicked with me.

I really need to pick up Diablo 4, but I’m spoiled by Diablo 3 on the Switch for portable play while my wife watches TV. I’d love to get D4 on the Steam Deck, but the setup seems a bit intimidating, and I’d worry that future updates would break it.

Alternative title: some nobody on the internet has too much free time

I enjoyed NMS more and more each year. I wish I didn’t instantly get migraines from VR headsets or I’d get a PSVR2 just for NMS.

For me, weirdly, it’s a tie between TotK and Street Fighter 6. Every time I sit at my couch, it’s a coin toss of which one I’ll be feeling. I’ve never been that into fighting games, but SF6 is really clicking with me. Then of course is the unbridled freedom and creativity of TotK. It’s a tough choice.
I also need to download the FF16 demo. Heard it’s amazing.

TBH, the thing I disliked most about Reddit ended up being the community. It was nice having little niche communities, but wisps of inceldom, hivemind, and that general air of arrogance permeated the entire site. Killing the apps that made the site tolerable to use (Apollo, in my case) was just the last straw. I already used a plugin that deleted all of my posted content from the past 5 years, so I’m officially out, and it’s kind of a relief. I’ll stick to Discord interest servers and small communities like this one from now on.
