20% off. It's Satisfactory but with tower defense and the world catches on fire sometimes.

I don't do early access but $16 is hard to refuse. It's on my watch list for full release.

Original Title: HAVE WE FIXED STAR WARS JEDI: SURVIVOR PC? A FIX FOR CAMERA AND ANIMATION STUTTER

Crucially, this is not a cure-all for all of the game's stuttering issues. It does nothing for shader compilation stutter and it cannot resolve known RT-related crashes and won't improve UI quirks or other systemic issues that continue to plague the PC version of the game. However, it is a viable mitigation for one of the game's most distracting visual artefacts: inconsistent, judder-like camera and animation in CPU-limited situation.

Today’s game is some more Animal Crossing New Horizons. You know what I’ve come to realize? The switch’s Wi-Fi card? Absolutely horrible. Like. My signal fluctuates from 1 bar to no bars. If I hold it high enough I might get 2 bars. So that’s ruled out multiplayer for the most part because my signal is so bad me and my friend get disconnected after like 2 minutes.

I did something revolutionary today though: I went outside, to my friend’s house, and we played local multiplayer. Experience was far better. We went and looked at his aquarium together.

I have to say, having to actually hang out with a friend. I see why this really took off during Covid. It felt like actually hanging out in a museum with my friend, and with the photo mode it kind of feels like I’m making memories.

I also bought a wet suit and went swimming. It’s a cool concept. I like it. Honestly I like the ocean in general. You know what I don’t like? This damn net. I know there’s technical constraints but damn do I want to just swim onward forever.

I also got Sherb. He’s nice. I want to pet him. He was reading a picture book like all day. No shame to him but I don’t think he can read. Which honestly raises some concerns about the infrastructure on my island. I think I need to establish educational facilities so people can learn to read and stuff. Poor Sherb shouldn’t be limited to picture books.

Finally I unlocked Harv’s island. I wasn’t sure what this is but I wasn’t expecting a photo studio. I took a picture and left (I didn’t want to be rude and just fuck off without taking a single photo). I didn’t have time though so I went home.

That was kind of all I did though. After discovering the multiplayer it’s felt like a lot opened up to me, and getting to finally swim was a nice step too. I think my next step will be to earn money to finish the local bridge I’m building since we don’t seem to have taxes. I’m just not sure how to do that really as I only have 30,000 Bells in the bank.

Replaced. Sad Cat Studios' dystopian platformer, has had its release pushed back to April so its developers can make some "final tweaks".

So my obsession with Sony's hardware design is no secret, especially when it comes to the PSP. When I compare it to the handhelds released around that time, it just kinda...kicks butt.

I thought it might be nice to write up an article on both my experiences buying a cheap PSP from Japan (listed as "junk"...which to be fair in Japan has a totally different meaning!), and detailing how to do the same if you're looking for reasonable quality and prices, in 2026.

In the end, mine arrived with an ancient jailbreak from 2009 already used. And since writing and posting this (my will is weak), I've already ordered another, in excellent condition and complete-in-box.

Anyway, if you want to read along with my adventure, read my tips on how to buy a cheap PSP in 2026, or just share in some PSP nostalgia, then as ever my article is here:

BREAKING: PlayStation is shutting down Bluepoint Games, the studio responsible for modern remakes of classic games such as Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, Bloomberg News has learned.

A shocking end for a well-respected studio.

Bluepoint was working on a God of War live-service game until it was canceled early last year. The studio then spent the last year pitching and trying to determine what it would do next.

Something neat I got working on the Miyoo Mini Plus (with a bit of help from the Onion OS guys) from a while ago. I do not recommend as the controls suck, but it did work and was fun to play around with.

this shuts down rumors that bethesda will move to unreal engine for ES6

Today’s game is Quake. Specifically QBJ3. I saw someone talking about this and decided I’d give it a try. I’d never played Quake before this. But I saw someone talking about the modpack and thought it was pretty so I tried it. I even bought a copy of Quake 1 for it.

I really like the modpack. It’s got some some amazing artistry too it, maybe jumping headfirst into it for an evening of fun wasn’t the best idea though. I think I’d appreciate it more if I’d actually played Quake 1 before.

I played 1 map where you’re escaping from prison which was a load of fun. It went on a while though so I stopped and tried a different level.

Next I tried one called “Penis day at the Gym”. I have no clue what the hell I played but it was fun. I got a laugh out of me slipping on a banana peel to my death. I also found something called a Brutalist Butt Plug.

The final one I played I can’t remember the name of but it had something to do with a house. Design wise it reminds me of Silent Cartographer in Halo CE. I think it’s my favorite to play. It had a lot of wide openness the others didn’t.

I do think that openness works against it though too, as it maid it harder to hit targets. That ended up causing me to stop as I was fighting a group of enemies I just couldn’t get past.

I really liked this modpack, ultimately though I think it was more so a fun evening for me to mess around. When I decide to set my mind to it though I’d love to come back for an evening and finish a bunch of the levels.

Hi, this is a quick post I make to talk about something I keep seeing online everywhere.

A lot of people say that the price increases will force developers to optimize and to work with what hardware they have to make good games and stop using AI gen and DLSS tech as an excuse for poor optimization.

The big problem is that nobody thinks about those people that don't have the hardware right now.
Those people that were waiting for a discount to buy a PS5 or a PC and now they're left stranded.

Current-gen consoles are getting really hard to find and a lot of people have been left out, stuck on old-gen and old-games.

playing old-games is not a bad thing but you may have missed the fact that even old consoles are getting reaaally pricey thanks to scalpers and speculators of the market.

This is madness people. Fight AI, don't embrace it!

I do like dnd but ive just had some form of burnout lately and i feel like my depression isint helping either.

I want to explore other games and genres besides just dnd 5e. I would like to try solo but im not sure what the most beginner approach/game would be that is free, as i dont want to pay right away. I would also like to explore unique card games similar to tcgs but those dont really come solo.

Im up to hear out your suggestions and questions.
