Glad it’s back. It was considered abandonware for a while there.

I played it on my PS3 not too long ago and it’s definitely a middle of the road game. It feels ambitious and like it fell flat at the same time. The game gives you a decent amount of choice but it didn’t feel fun enough to replay. For a spy game I didn’t think it had the best stealth mechanics.

When you say upgraded do you mean changed to a new device or just updated the OS?

If it’s the former you might be able to extract the app and transfer it and crack it yourself.

I believe the term punk has kind of drifted towards a catch-all term to describe something that clashes against what is considered the norm for most people.

There are definitely traditional punk themes in genres like cyberpunk and solarpunk. I feel like with dieselpunk and steampunk it’s largely a matter aesthetics.

Kind of an easy way to describe broad themes. If you are looking for a game similar to Mad Max for example with a post apocalypse desert that’s full of scavengers it might be easier to just use the term desertpunk.

The other person was also in the process of turning away and leaving.

Are you trying to import content? I don’t think there’s a way to do that. There might be a way to mass download content posted by a user but I feel like that’s probably it. I don’t even know if there is a tool for doing what I mentioned for Lemmy.

I could see that being a game I play sporadically or once and never again. At least it’s price fairly.

For those interested AirCar is another chill cyberpunk game. You fly around the city in VR. It can be a bit nauseating if start doing rolls though. It’s also free.

What is it exactly? Some kind of developer mode to bypass the login screen?

I wonder how this will work with local accounts

Kind of reminds me of how I played The Long Dark. I turned all of hazards to minimal and treated it like a walking simulator/exploration game

I mean you aren’t too far off. Honestly I wouldn’t mind it. I would rather have a feature rich simpler looking game than something that’s fancy and shallow.

I’d be more than impressed by something just basically recreates the original Sims experience.

That’s kind of like Tiny Life. It is similar to the Sims but with retro graphics. Lots of people bought it as soon as it hit early access when a lot of core things were missing.

Howard referred to Shattered Space as being in the vein of Bethesda’s other “annual story expansions”, adding that the developers hope to release additional content for Starfield for “a very long time". That means we’ll see at least one more big expansion, with Howard saying that the team “more or less” plan to put out annual DLC in a similar way to their previous games.

“We’re planning for the one after [Shattered Space], so there will be another one,” Howard then confirmed.

I feel like these two comments hint at different things. I hope there is more than one DLC to come.

I haven’t played Starfield yet but I’ve heard the base game can be kind of dull at times. I was hoping we would see some kind of No Man’s Sky or Cyberpunk 2077 changes to the base elements of the game that might address this.

It’s better than blindly scrolling through your dad’s photo library but not by a ton

What are you trying to do that you don’t think you can do on Linux? Also there’s ways to install Windows 11 on unsupported systems.

Update - 11/01/2024, 11:55 AM UTC: The GitHub repository has been restored now. Hopefully this won’t happen in future, considering as noted below, GSC Game World actually gave it their blessing to be used. And thanks to the take-down, even more people now know about it. From the reversal notice, GitHub stated clearly after a review it was a fraudulent take-down.

Most of the time that should be very easy to filter out. Was it not tagged with Unl (Unlicensed) or Pirate in brackets after the ROM name?

It’s the same thing you would usually do to delete ROMs in foreign languages.

That said there are a lot of unlicensed homebrew games out there that are genuinely great like Micro Mage for the NES

You might want to check out curated collections like Tiny Best Set. It will cut out a large amount of low-tier titles.

If you are into reviews and box art I feel like the easiest option would be to look at ES-DE, LaunchBox, or RetroArch depending on your device.

It seems like you are looking for some kind of middle ground between sets and individually picking ROMs so I am not sure.

I also don’t know what you meant by “don’t know what romsets are real or not”.

Some people use Usenet for that kind of thing. I typically stumble across things I have been looking for on other social sites. For example someone makes a post with Adult Swim pilots and specials and other people will add additional material they happen to have. Sometimes it can help to think of what category what you are looking for is under then lurk around there for something like a bundle or a mislabeled version.

Probably not the answer you are looking for but thought I’d mention it

Are you looking to acquire ROMs to make a personal archive yourself or submit ROMs to Vimm’s Lair so that they can be archived?

If it’s the former there are better sites out there for downloading complete sets. You can check the megathread (check the sidebar) but using Internet Archive in combination with a reputable download manager is usually what people do. Myrient is relatively new and seems good as well.

Vimm’s Lair is better suited for downloading individual very specific titles.

ex. the North Korean version 1.02 of Shrek 5: The Swampening for the Super Playstation

If it’s the latter each console’s page has a section that lists what games are missing and their hash values. If yours match you can simply compress and send it.

Good to known I thought there would be other giveaways like not having the DLC registered to your account but somehow having the achievements for it.

In that example though there might be some ways that could happen legitimately like having Fallout New Vegas on Steam but using DLC acquired from a physical copy or GOG.

I feel like I heard before no one has gotten banned for it yet but it just seemed a bit too easy to me
