This reminds me to the completionist video (using mlem, don’t know how to link videos) where he’s trying to get the complete 3ds and Wii U libraries and all the hoops he had to jump in order to complete them.
The thing is that even though there will be probably some that will try to achieve a complete collection for these consoles, how many of these games will be unplayable due to not connecting to servers? Modern gaming is in a very sad state…
Same thing I play every week. Coral Island and RCT3.
Coral Island is in Steam Early Access and is as yet unfinished, but is making steady progress and the devs are doing great at keeping everyone up to date on progress. Coral Island is frequently compared to Stardew Valley. Frankly, I don’t enjoy SDV. I’ve tried and tried and it just doesn’t do it for me. Coral Island is everything I was hoping SDV would be. It’s game play is similar, but I find the whole thing much more enjoyable.
I’ve been playing RCT3 off and on since I first bought it on CD a million years ago.
I think digital store only titles really muddy the waters in terms of completionist collecting. I don’t see any reason why people interested in collecting wouldn’t also collect PS4/Xbox/Switch games though. To me the more pressing question is, what will happen to retro collecting when consoles stop having physical releases? Kids growing up in that time period won’t get the joy of returning to childhood favorites by getting a working console and physical games. That makes me sad, I my self have had a blast putting together a collection of my favorite Genesis and PS1 games along with a lot of consoles from that era.
Broke a helmet and concussed myself as a teenager because my quick release on the front wheel was loose, and well you can guess what happened. Learned a valuable lesson that day to always, always check that the quick release is tight
The best way is to have a small server with wireguard installed, which is a VPN. This runs on virtually anything, including a raspberry pi or even a router with open-wrt.
Anyways, your wireguard server will only accept connections from devices that have its certificate (secure passwordless authentication).
Once you’re connected to that VPN, it’s effectively as being in your home network.
You might want to Google for guides on how to setup wireguard on a raspberry pi. Even if you don’t have a PI you’ll surely find the tutorial you need.
I’ve been thinking about getting some stuff from my childhood again. I recently watched We’re Back on YouTube and while the movie is not great, it has a great charm, which has been making me think of getting the VHS tapes I used to have as a kid.
Aside from that movie, I’m also thinking of getting The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars, Anastasia, The Jungle Book, and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
I've got a better idea: enable downvotes so we can give this post (and others like it) the treatment they deserve.
Seriously, "its [sic] obvious this is a failed experiment" after less than one week? And "a majority of users aren't going to sign up for yet another site"... except for you? Give it a rest.
Depends on the instance, some are well-prepared and can expand storage depending on the traffic, so I think they’ll be fine. People are already posting a lot of images, but it is a good idea to try and link to other sources rather than stress the servers.
Got a Xeon E5-2690v2 with TrueNAS Scale and a Synology DS418. Having used both pretty heavily over the years I can safely say I'm indifferent. The Synology is efficient; the TrueNAS Scale box performs really well with the added bonus of being able to run Kubernetes and Docker workloads. They're both sitting in their respective corners, doing their respective things, with minimal intervention.
When I turned 24 and started to make friends outside the circle of friends that I grew up with I realized I had so many pictures of everything but of me in them to show , to remember those times by. It was kind of awful , and now I make an effort to be a part of the memories i am making if only to one day look back at what i looked liked then. Social media ruin being part of pictures for me but trying to connect to other people in real life and being kinder to myself made me realise why is actually very important to me. There are memories I have zero pictures of just because “I don’t want to make this moment about pictures and social media” as if there is no other purpose to pictures but social media , i was a dummy.
The worse part is there is a lot of pictures i am in that i don’t remember the context of until other people bring up the story of it. I guess the whole “We didn’t know we were making memories, we just. knew we were having fun." - Winnie the Pooh. Is legitness. So be part of the picture people even if just to remember youself by.
