Haven't been playing for a long time because I haven't set up the xbox in a long while, but Borderlands 1. Have been playing that game on and off more than a decade now. I don't think the base game (playthrough 1 only) on its own is 1000+ hours long, could be wrong, but it's long enough, especially with the DLCs. I think I've beaten playthrough 1 and 2 with 2-3 of the characters and have yet to beat all the quests with any of them because of a certain DLC boss fight quest.

It's a game I absolutely fell in love with. Started with the 2nd game, which my brother got, but I later got the 1st because I wanted to see how it was compared to 2 and I'm a bigger fan of the 1st game. Played the pre-sequel, it's fun but not as good as 1 in my opinion, and have no experience at all with 3.

There is Neocities and a few other sites that allow you to make and share your own sites. Though some sites are more than just basic html, so experience will vary, but you can find basic pages dedicated to hobbies and such if you sift through them. Only problem with these sites/services, assuming the other ones are run like Neocities, is that you are given a pretty limited amount of space.

There's no way my dad would have ever let me (or either of my siblings) celebrate that in either of the jobs he had when I was growing up. Even though he doesn't work directly with the machinery, a foundry is the opposite of a safe place for kids to be. Same with military weekend drills.

And if I ever have kids, I personally probably wouldn't celebrate it with them because I think it's just kinda dumb.

If there were no consequences, I can think of a few different things I'd wanna see.

  1. Just out of morbid curiosity, what an atomic bomb dropping looks like when it explodes, being there in person rather than just seeing footage (from a safe distance with protective equipment, just in case I can still get hurt, otherwise get as close as possible if there are absolutely zero consequences to my actions, as if I'm a spectator in minecr*ft).
  2. Probably just go back in time and watch as many cartoons as I could back in the early netflix streaming era because I absolutely love cartoons.
  3. Definitely go back in time and watch either An American Tail or Fivel Goes West in theaters because I really like both movies.

If we're talking just the RPG maker series and not any of the creations, XP because pokemon essentials.

Otherwise, it's close because I love Pokemon Uranium (the game that got banned from too much success and attention IIRC) and the currently still WIP Pokemon Empire (the game where you visit the Telius region and start on a plane ride, to avoid spoilers and also it being mixed up with any other game).

I really like Pokemon Uranium mostly because of nostalgia. Saw videos of people I used to watch who didn't normally make pokemon content playing it and it's probably the first pokemon fangame I ever played and definitely the first I finished the main story of. Still waiting for post game to be released and I'm absolutely pumped for when/if it ever releases.

I love Empire it takes baseline Pokemon Reborn/Rejuvenation elements such as field effects and adds a lot to them, has 18(?/one per type) badges planned and the currently available actually feel fair while still being challenging (IMO), changes a ton of moves to make them better (splash lowering accuracy? I'll take it!), has some pretty cool fakemon (even if they're not all ones you would see in an official game design wise) with a pretty cool spinda evolution, and even changes the type chart by having normal be super effective against fairy type, making normal have an actual use. Also, you can start with a starter of just about any type, which is absolutely amazing.

Biggest problem with both, in my opinion, is that they rely on discord servers for sharing things like game dev progress/updates and such, like most every other fangame out there.

Depends on the article. Political or most other real world news, probably gonna either just read the headline and any comments. If it's something that interests me, I feel more compelled to read it, though.

Would absolutely love to see mod makers turn either 3 or NV into a fo1/2 experience because we're clearly never gonna see remasters of the original at this point.

[–] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Probably the best we'd get for story DLCs would be for FO4 or 76 because there's absolutely no way they'd create new content for a game over a decade old that isn't Skyrim or the latest entry in another series of theirs that is either fallout or fallout or fallout.

You got me there.

I thought y'all was just a gender neutral term combining you and all.

How would it be wrong or offensive to refer to refer to trans person as "y'all"? Genuine question.

Media files are proprietary and it's under the zlib license if that disqualifies anything, but for a somewhat decent experience, there is H-Craft Championship. Not the greatest of games considering it's a game that originally released in 2007 as a commercial game available for Linux (don't know about other platforms outside of the 2015 open source(?) release) by some seemingly random independent studio (Irrgheist), but fun enough I guess.

Unrelated to Adventures, but thanks to this post I rediscovered the Sonic Generations Unleashed Project mod (alongside some cool looking add-on mods). I saw a single video on the base mod years ago and completely forgot about it until today, so thank you for this, I guess, and also thank you to the person who posted the link to the mod site.

 

Mostly asking because I've never used these before due to never needing to. That, and I have a few old disc based PC games that I'd love to be able to straight up boot without the game disc. These are games I could just pirate, but I figure I already own them in disc, so I'd rather see if there are any reputable places with no-disc patches. The places I've looked in the megathread don't have what I'm looking for.

Closest they have is either a link to the game on another platform in the case of My Abandonware due to it being sold, or a link to just straight up pirate the full thing in the case of Magipack Games. I've also done some digging on the Internet Archive but have yet to yield results (probably because I suck at finding things there). Still gonna keep looking there, but any helpful info would be much appreciated.

I don't think I can share the game names, even in DM, due to the rules here, so site mainpages are my best shot.

 

I've never ripped CDs or DVDs before for any reason and am curious how this works since I have some stuff I wanna see about backing up but am nervous about ruining the disc. I've tried looking this up, but every time I do, I obviously am searching for the wrong thing because I have never found the info I'm looking for.

 

Linux noob. Just got a pair of Skull Candy Push Active XT bluetooth earbuds. They pair just fine with my setup but no sound comes through them. I found many different posts on various forums and nothing helped.

Using the inxi command I pulled some info I think might help, if it's needed. (I don't know if any of this is needed to help fix this issue. I've only been using MX for a little over a week and have never really done a lot of under the hood Linux maintenance before, but am more than willing to learn to fix this issue). If there is sny other information needed, I'm willing to edit this with any of that information, if I can find it.

Got a copy of Borderlands (EU iso) from the r/ROMS megathread and found out there is securom verification (which I have absolutely no experience with) as part of the installation process.

Closest I have found to a solution to bypass so far after some brief searching was one "Generic Securom 7/8 by Virusek" off of the "LOSTFILESARCHIVE" github page, which leads to a 404 page (even on the wayback machine).

Are there any programs or patches you would recommend to bypass this god awful drm?
