Let me guess, ChessBase uses ODBC? :tongue:

This was very satisfactory in 2022 already. I spent 150 hours with it then..

Quoting: shadow1w2No surprise that RPGs fit well on the deck.
Being able to sleep the machine and resume quickly is a big help for lengthy games plus playing them on the go.

Sleep and resume, yes. But I totally don't understand why you would want to play first-person rpgs like Fallout 4 on this a tiny screen. Also, I don't see how this works with the rather massive UI of BG3 -- and no mouse either.

Stardew Valley seems like a perfect fit, however, and so do most of the low-res jrpgs.

Liars under perjury. That's Nintendo.

Because "illegally circumvents Nintendo’s technological protection measures" is not the case, and "runs illegal copies of Nintendo Switch games" does not qualify for anything under the DMCA section 1201.

As I wrote on my review on steam: Prodeus is the most Doom since Doom, while not being Doom.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyWell I'm sorry, but I'm not going to start playing Stellaris or Civ in first-person perspective. :tongue:

Oh, I don't dispute the usefulness of a boardgame-perspective or that there aren't good games that use it. And I play some of these.

But I'm coming mostly from TTRPGs (Which some people do play in a more strategy-games way with miniatures, which of course leads straight to Baldurs Gate), which otherwise favours a more FPV perspective and got us things like Dungeon Master or Eye of the Beholder and Fallout 3.

But taking a perfectly good FPV game and make a top-down/isometric version of it feels like Doom: The Boardgame (Which, incidentally, is a decent game)

This is so wrong.

I won't ever understand people that prefer non first-person perspective computer games. It took us so long to get to the point where they were possible in a somewhat immersive way, and now they're doing stuff like imitating camera shortcomings with motion blur, camera grime, chromatic aberration, film grain, depth of field and lens flare, and produce things like Deep Rock Galactic 2D and Minecraft 2D.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPIf I can play Switch games on my PC, why would I buy a Switch?

If I can play Steam games on my PC, why would I buy a SteamDeck? Oh, hang on, I did.

Looks good, but.. is it intentionally "Stalker"? Even the Region is called "Exclusion Zone" too...
