Damn this looks good

just why?

>>44926
Why not? It's easily the most convenient for discussion between players.

Is it worth it to get one of these 8bitdo controllers over something like a ps5 controller for pc?

>>45007

only when it's not a PS controller tbh

i can make muscle memory of the button prompts but i associate the red button with O and when i see an X i think of the button in the bottom

i know where the Xbox buttons are but my brain still can still get confused in the heat of the game

>>45008
Yeah they're a fraction of the cost and they're pretty good

>>45008
I have one and it's basically the only way to have cheap controllers with more buttons than normal

>>45008
The dualsense is a garbage controller without hall effect or tmr, and it has a shit battery life. If you want a high polling rate and gyro you buy a more expensive third party controller.

>a series of games that was known to be great for satirizing, among other things, the corporate america Rockstar grew to be.
Shakedown Hawaii is a retro GTA clone that is better about this than GTA ever was.

literally every other mission is capitalist characters finding some new way to fuck up society for a quick buck

>>44993
Thanks for this

It was always destined to happen because there's really no reason why Rockstar should be immune to the profit motive that drives the rest of corporate America.

The satire also got a lot softer as the series went on, the comic critique of America became a lot more American than that of Brits looking at the US from the outside. As in it became a lot more politicised in that really generic liberal "Late Night" way where republicans are all rednecks and democrats are all pretentious urbanites, whereas GTA 1, 2 and III scarcely mention politics at all because it's correctly treated as an irrelevancy in a blowing-up-police-helicopters Hollywood depiction of the US where the protagonist collecting prostitutes and ferrying them to a police ball, picking up stolen donkey porn and pictures of a morgue party involving the most influential businessman in the city, mincing people into dog food so someone can avoid their debts, etc are presented as reasonable jobs for a career criminal. In such a world, the trite bi-partisan politics of Washington DC simply don't matter, it's obviously not of importance in this virtual world where someone is causing enough carnage to get the frigging army after them and then escaping after repainting their car, but the question then is does it matter in the real world that still has powerful criminal gangs, mass shootings, and hookers a plenty?

>>45001
no problem :) glad you found it interesting

yeah i noticed the "late-night-libification" as well.

I'm sorry to inform you that the mobile phone is the one we use, crakkka.

all of my favorite games are cracked by russians doe

if the body was too short why not take that as a hint you're making a dogshit thread?

game runs like shit. when it first came out i could barely run it on my 10 year old shitbox. with every update the performance has gotten worse.

I am guessing EU5 release is the final nail in the coffin.

>5k players is dead
most fighting games would kill to have that amount of players daily

It crashes my computer when I play as the UK/India because it's doing too much at once and I have an i9 CPU with 32GB RAM.

Blue pill me on this, do your choices really matter besides the romance?

Well I liked it… But also been shitposting on /v/ like I used to because of it.

No.

another reason the narrative didn't really work for me is the way the game presents the workplace environment. i comes off as if the writers genuinely believe some corporate propaganda. maybe one of the head writers held management position once and genuinely bought into all that team building corpo babble bullshit those types are trained to spout. solidarity might form between workers of teams like the zteam but would never include the middle manager. matter of fact animosity towards the manager is a big reason solidarity is formed between workers. so i just couldn't buy when robert would give inspirational speeches to the zteam and he wouldn't just be met with anger and eye rolling. if robert wanted to make himself one of the team he shouldn't have bought into the philosophy of 'the weak get culled' that his bosses convinced him to buy into.

but i don't know i'm making complaints about realism about a video game about super heroes

It's written to be easy to grasp so even kids can understand it, but the theoretical concepts it tries to teach are by no means simple. You can look at Land of Lisp for something a bit more pratical and game-oriented.

>maybe a first person exploration / boomer shooter / horror where the enemies could be 2D.
For anything 3D you would either need an icky behemoth of a framework like Unity, or roll your own with a substantial amount of computer graphics and linear algebra knowledge as a prerequisite. 2D and especially tile-based games are far easier though. SDL2 has bindings for a lot of different languages, so if you can wrap your head around how the rendering pipeline works, you can use it from pretty much any programming environment.

I think I'll try Unreal or Unity for now but I will read these books as well in order to give me a theoretical understanding of the field.

The Little Schemer was not written for kids, it was written for adults:
> In fact , The Little Schemer is based on lecture notes from a two-week "quickie" introduction to Scheme for students with no previous programming experience and an admitted dislike for anything mathematical . Many of these students were preparing for careers in public affairs.

>students with no previous programming experience and an admitted dislike for anything mathematical
Maybe the two aren't as different as you would think. Let's say a sufficiently smart kid (12-18) would probably get it, lest we summon newgene.

If you know how programming works but not the language use ChatGPT and tutorials to code shitty scripts but by god DO READ THE CODE
If you ask, it will also comment the code and tell you with detail how it reads
Give it any error log you find and how to fix it manually
After a week or so of doing this you'll more or less be able to read/write some code.
Beware vibe coding tho (not reading the code) if you start falling asleep and realize you're just copying and pasting code stop and try again when you're more focused and can get a better grasp of the code

That's what has worked for me at least.
Easiest way I've found for me to start with Python and C#, for Godot and Unity respectively.
