No, I’m replaying 8 via the mobile remaster right now and that is what you can do and how the game essentially explains why it happens. It only works with Squall and Seifer as well.

The La Li Lu Le Lo?!

I installed PopOS last year after I got fed up with bloatware, adds, and just outright annoying “notifications” in windows 10 and 11, and I haven’t looked back.

I found a great resource in the ProtonDB website for configuring proton settings as I have also occasionally had games not work properly that are steam deck verified. There are typically enough people posting how they overcame issues and their build components so you can try to match up their fixes with your computer parts. It helps a ton most of the time.

Nice! Glad to hear that you are enjoying it, happy that the recommendation worked for you! Agreed about the armor. I did miss that. I did enjoy the weapon level ups and finding rings that worked well together. It was a good way to scratch the first person dungeon crawler itch.

Infamous Second Son and the expansion pack take place in Seattle.

I just finished Days Gone earlier this week, and that game was solid. I wish I played it sooner.

That ending video rolling and the absolutely beautiful personalized version of Bound Together playing is one of my favorite moments of any game I’ve played. I would love to go back to that world in other mediums.

I’ve been putting off playing Ultrakill until it finally releases, but from the little I had to check out when I bought it; I thought it was great. I’m excited to play it. Dusk is also just fantastic. It’s hard to pick a favorite from the New Blood games for me. Amid Evil is also up there.

Lunacid - King’s Fieldalike with a great atmosphere and PS1 era esthetic. Fun hidden secrets (sometimes a little too obscure, but whateva, still fun) that I fell in love with as a fan of the OG From Soft King’s Field/Eternal Ring games.

Signalis - A thought provoking horror sci-fi game about an android trying to find their missing ship captain on a far away planet. I don’t want to stay more to stay away from spoilers, but this plays homage to OG Resident Evil and other early survival horror games from a top down perspective.

Pyre - A sports game and VN hybrid made by Supergiant games. Not as popular (At least I think) as Hades, Transistor, and Bastion. Just fantastic story and world building with characters that you end up feeling so passionately for by the end of the game. Just a wonderful game and probably my favorite Supergiant game barely in front of Hades.

Dusk - A retro FPS ala Quake 1 era games. The game that kicked off the newest resurgence of “Boomer shooters” and is one of the best out there. Wonderful secrets and level design along with some solid atmosphere and scares by those New Blood boys that I love so much.

No, not at all. She does have some interesting faces while she is laying around at peace. The rescue I got her from told me she was a part of a feral cat colony living on the streets, so while I think she could fight with the best of them; she is a lover at heart.

Yes, they do! They have very different personalities, but still get along well.

What does Biden and Democrats (assuming from the US) have to do with an Australian company?

Article says it’s from an entirely different country….

I appreciate it! I’ll take a look at that post as well.

You are a champion! Thank you for this info! I’ve been wanting to install something else on my Surface pro 7 since I started using W11 on it and immediately disliked it. Your comment just turned that into a much easier process for my weekend!

I also crave a new Kings Field! Some of my favorite childhood games.

Have you heard of Lunacid? Indie PC game that fully released this year by the developer behind Lost in Vivo. It’s absolutely crammed full with the legacy of Kings Field. First person dungeon crawl with magic rings to equip (Eternal Ring!) and a weapon stamina build up mechanic like KF. A TON of hidden secrets behind fake walls. Very obscure story that you piece together by the few characters in the game and environmental story telling.

I wouldn’t call it a perfect Kings Field clone, but it sure scratched the itch. It’s on Steam for probably 15-20 usd.
