Day 342 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing in c/games@lemmy.world
[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm with you, Mario 64 is one of my all time favorites.

i still play it every few years and sometimes I'll get the urge to watch the latest world-record speedrun, it's so much fun to even just watch.

pretty much the only game i do that with.

great screenshots too. there are so many mods for SM64 but I almost always play vanilla, so it's fun to see you guys as different characters.

SM64 Toad is a psychopath for sure.

congrats on getting to share the game with your friend, and almost hitting a year with your screenshots!

if you think that despite the overwhelming popular evidence, i don't think any further examples are going to change your mind.

sewing is mine also. I don't think I've talked to a single person in the 15 years I've been sewing that hasn't reacted with shock to some degree or another upon finding out.

i like repairing clothes and making backpacks.

whaaat?

so a comment mentioned lump.... that's a quite a leap to your notion that Lemmy is nothing but presidents of the United States band posts.

I think the fact that you have that post at hand maybe indicates that you're pretty into the band?

rather than all of Lemmy being into that band.

who does rock.

from my absurdly extensive(editorial opinion) user history alone, you'll be able to tell that.... wait let me check how many posts and comments I have...

that .01% of my posts are about that band.

I don't think the POTUS band affliction is as a widespread as you are insinuating.

I see a lot more posts about the coward POTUS than the band POTUS these days.

i always figured with the "woman" cry and all the talking about bulges and fingering that it was about sex.

I don't know its depth measurement, but I don't think...the song is strictly about the peach fruit.

listening to some presidents of the United States of America.

peaches, specifically.

but I've been thinking about this point with a lot of bands, and songs I love, lately.

also, I know this is crazy, but apparently I forgot there's a ninja fight at the end of the peaches video?

that was surprising.

there are hundreds of prominent Republicans who become Democrats, it's just that liberals know people can change their minds, that's the whole point of liberalism, so they don't see it as noteworthy, whereas when the liberal becomes a conservative, the conservatives all lose their minds because they can't believe a forward thinking person has finally regressed, so they shout it from their pointy demon spiked rooftops.

because the lines are bad?

is that a common drawing exercise?

sorry what's the context here? I'm having a beer night.

I can't find the post or my comment that ended up with this show on my watchlist, and during the first 15 minutes I thought it was goofy, but by the end of the first episode I'm definitely hooked.

theit discussion of what it means to be human is pretty engaging.

Cannot climb the base of the spire in Horizon: Forbidden West (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm playing with the keyboard and mouse, and the climbing is very clunky so far overall, but it seems completely broken for the spire.

when I get to the second to the last hand holds and I have to reach out and then long jump to the highest hand holds so that I can jump into the spire, aloy reaches out but only jumps to the left or right off the spire, she will not jump up to the highest, final handhold, even if she's reaching straight up.

has anyone else played this with a mouse and keyboard instead of a controller?

I've tried different key bindings and default, but she only jumps left or right off the spire and refuses to jump up to the highest handhold.

it looks very much like this guys problem, but he's playing it with a controller and finally solved it, sayd his problem was custom key bindings and the solution was default, but I can't get anywhere with these keyboard controls.

Cool client, am I missing something obvious with quick actions? mine are missing despite showing up in the preview. (sh.itjust.works)
 

in the preview I can see them under the post, I've added share and save, but on the actual posts in the feed on any layout, share and save are not in the quick action bar.

do I have to enable something else also?

thanks

for US voters who didn't, why didn't you vote early through the mail? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Just curious since it seems so much easier and less stressful during any election cycle to fill out a form and mail it in during your free time.

I like a lot about the Marvels(2023), but does this movie have the worst CGI/set pieces of any Marvel movie? (sh.itjust.works)

does anyone have any insight into this? actual behind the scenes knowledge?

the sets either look like cheap plastic or ps3 graphics.

It's very distracting and making it almost impossible for me to immerse myself in the story.

It's very frustrating because I like the movie and the story and I think the actors are mostly doing a good job, kamala and her family are hilarious, but I can't get over how dog shit the CGI , editing and set pieces are.

did anyone else notice this?

and the budget was 220 million. it was huge, I can't understand why the effects and set pieces are so terrible.

a small example: when captain Marvel "changes" her clothes in the singing Palace, her entire wardrobe is clearly changed off screen, she's already wearing her new costume when the camera switches back to her and there are literal like 1970s cartoon Disney sparkles floating around her for a second to imply that she morphed her costume?

have Marvel movies always looked this ridiculous? I feel like 10 years ago the effects and settings were more believable, or at the very least more immersive.

All of these effects look like they were made in one frantic week.

oh, and the costumes?

Why are all the costumes baggy?

like professor Marvel's costume is baggy, everyone on Nick Fury ship is wearing baggy jumpsuits.

and it's not like cool baggy, they just didn't make costumes that fit for everybody on set?

professor's Marvel's mom's hair looks crazy, it looks like they sprayed white spray paint on her head and was like okay, she's old now.

the kittens are rough, their textures, movements and physics are absurd.

I used sink plungers in toilets pretty much my whole life until i scrolled across a similar diagram one day and discovered the truth.

I hadn't heard about any of this until seeing that ToS post.
