lowkey ive never played on xbox before, what are some of the things is should know abt the controllers

normal scaffold

#

Exactly like that's the thing I don't really care about all the extra games or access of game pass as long as I can play multiplayer

#

Ik mine has the advantage buttons and trigger locks

rare cipher

#

althought i feel screenshot should be a button combo rather than just one button

#

maybe back button + screenshot idk

tired hare
#

It's pretty simple tho but if you've mainly played Playstation you'll have to get used to it probably such as button layout and all that

lusty tangle
#

screenshots just takes forever

lusty tangle
#

also the controllers are bigger right?

#

Ik in my room alone There's 2 xbox one controllers, 2 ps4 controllers a ps3 controller and an xbox 360 controller

tired hare
#

Gives your hand more space in my opinion

#

That and I prefer the button layout including the start, power, settings and ever the screenshot button because it's just all there

lusty tangle
tired hare
#

Yeah instead of the edges

tawdry mango
lusty tangle
#

i kinda like the edges since its closer to my thumbs, what does the material of the controllers feel like?

tired hare
tired hare
#

Idk I started xbox for a long time then the other day I tried playing Playstation and adjusting back to that controller was difficult

lusty tangle
#

ive had a nacon controller, one of those see through ones, are those bit similiar to xbox controllers

tired hare
#

Yeah

lusty tangle
#

adjusting shouldnt be hard then

#

might take a week or just couple days

tired hare
#

Shouldn't take long it's just for the first bit you gotta get back into the feeling of it and the button layout and all that

lusty tangle
#

should play something like minecraft first then

It's ok lol

i got muted

#

I’ve had some time to reflect on my actions since I was muted from the Discord server. Upon further consideration, I now realize that my behavior may not have been in line with the respectful standards expected within the community. The space we share is one of cooperation and mutual respect, and in hindsight, I understand that my actions disrupted that harmony.

# raven kraken Can log out and came back easy way.

While it may seem like an easy workaround to simply log out and return to the server as a means to circumvent the mute, I must respectfully acknowledge that this approach is unethical. By doing so, it undermines the very purpose of the mute, which was issued as a reminder of the importance of maintaining respectful conduct within the community.

If they use the mute feature here, then leaving and rejoining won’t matter. Plus leaving and rejoining over that is kinda pointless cause you’ll reset your progress to getting more perms

I’m nowhere near as organised

#

I just play what I feel on the day

cerulean basin
#

I just use the Extinct Dinosaur Library's calendars to trakc upcoming releases

#

They also have a separate one for TV shows and another one for movies 🙂

hmm very nice

south beacon
#

on estimate, most of these purchases planned for this year goes over 1500.

#

it gets more interesting than that as well

fervent yarrow
south beacon
#

it becomes a debate on if buying a Series X would help increase my savings

cerulean basin
# fierce kettle gonna skip it i think

I'm cautiously optimistic.
It's been more than a year since the last MCU movie that is not Deadpool.
They clearly took a break to rethink their whole strategy. So I want to see if it pays off or if it remains more of the same.

south beacon
#

so if I got a Series X, and I used Game Pass for 9 months, I would spend about 180 USD on the service from March to December

#

I would save at least 500 dollars on the titles I plan to play this year

fierce kettle
#

If you like the line up of games from Xbox then go for it

south beacon
#

so in total, I would spend close to 680 between a new console and 6 ganes

fierce kettle
#

Surprised sonic hasn’t made its way to game pass tbf

south beacon
#

But I mention it as most of these games are going to PlayStation too

#

ikr. frontiers is on ps plus

fierce kettle
cerulean basin
south beacon
#

then, I have to account for other games that aren't going to game pass this yaer

#

stuff like GTA 6 (though it's not a title I have high interest in, unless I got good reason to)

fierce kettle
#

Game pass is worth it imo and the best reason to be part of the Xbox ecosystem

south beacon
#

and let's not forget about Nintendo, between Metroid Prime 4, Switch 2, a new Mario Kart, and whatever else

#

Then third party offerings

fierce kettle
#

If you only really play like 2/3 games a year tho then get a PlayStation you’ll have more variety of games to choose from

south beacon
#

no I already have a PS5. The problem is trying to plan for the games I buy and how I spend

fierce kettle
#

Just get the Switch 2 then don’t bother with Xbox

#

Series S maybe if you can get it cheap

cerulean basin
south beacon
#

but I want to play a lot of the Xbox releases. Even though there are going to PS5, they stack in price, and Xbox will have a couple of exclusives, like Avowed and Fable (Fable is the big one for me)

#

At the very least, I will be making my decision in April, after the Switch 2 direct, so I at least know if Switch 2 is a system I want to get day one, and the games for that system

fierce kettle
#

They’ll be on PlayStation within a year or two so if you don’t mind waiting

south beacon
#

I'm older now, so I know better. I got Switch 1 in June 2017, and was bored out of my mind with game releases. I was stuck with MK8 as my game, since I played BOTW on Wii U.

south beacon
#

Too many games

#

I know Firebreak is a Game Pass title I'm interested in that is going to PS Plus

#

is some multiplayer project from Remedy set in the Control universe

#

Hi

south beacon
#

Sony only has two games confirmed for this year (but there may be more). Neither one are titles I'm 100% looking to jump into day one. Both are sequels to games I platinumed last year. It is strange that I am more interested in DS2 than Ghost of Yotei, since originally I was more invested in the Ghost series than DS before playing either. I guess DS really resonated with me

#

I think DS2 is a June release, and Ghost will be late summer

#

Snake Eater is another title. I don't know if I should discuss the release of that game, considering the nature of how I know it now

cerulean basin
#

Death Stranding is such a unique game too, that helps it stand out so much

iron totem
#

anyone like bioshock?

south beacon
#

I do

iron totem
#

nice which one?

south beacon
#

I've played 1 and Infinite, but finished neither

iron totem
#

i have beat all 3 now just waiting on 4

south beacon
#

what about Judas?

#

You could also play System Shock, which is the spiritual predeccessor to Bioshock

#

Judas is the successor to it, made by Levine, who created the Bioshock series

iron totem
#

i love system shock

cerulean basin
#

Never played 2, got more than halfway through 1, only finished Infinite

south beacon
#

Judas imo is probably a way to make a new type of Bioshock, but in a completely different setting from what the series is known for

#

I got as far as changing dimensions in Infinite, and dealing with the Doctor in 1, but my save for B1 got lost, so I don't know what I lost

#

So I opted to try a new save. Played about an hour. It's a series that I left on the backburner to finish another time on my Switch

#

Xbox and Take two probably got the biggest boatload of releases this year

I've played the intro mission of Black Ops 6, was... ok? I should definitely give it a more fair attempt.

But I did enjoy some of Modern Warfare 1 a couple decades ago 😂

well as a person who loves guns i love it

We have identified and analyzed both successful and underperforming cases of console exclusives released on PC, and we are preparing to release the game in a way that ensures continued success in the PC market. This will include optimization, enhancing user convenience, adding supplementary content, and tailored marketing strategies

Well, most 360 games on a single disc would kinda have to be well under 10 GB. You see, DVDs did not hold more than that.

arent games for xb1/series use bluerays?

Sure, but Blu-Rays can't be as big as some games. We all know now that there are games around 120 GB installed, right?

I wonder if Xbox discs can use all 250GB capacity? If so, that should be enough for a minute.

I'm sorry, I meant... let me try to reword this. I meant to ask if Xbox games are still limited to 50GB (old capacity) or 250GB (new capacity).

hearty plinth
#

i have no idea i dont buy physical discs since 2018/2019

#

im just too lazy to find another gameshop plus also too lazy to actually change the disc in my console

south beacon
#

depends. I know PS5 uses Ultra Blu Ray discs (and even then, we already got two games that exceed that capacity on disc to require two discs)

#

ok, I unlock all of the more difficult achievements in Helldivers 2

#

To summarize what I have remaining on the game, its a mix of playing 50, 100 missions, 5000 enemies, and then both module upgrades related achievements

hearty plinth
#

how long will physical disc games be a thing? will it become a small niche thing in the next 5 or so years?

south beacon

At the minimum, it'll continue with PS6

Sony I know is more aware of the value of physical media.

More people buy physical copies on PS5 than on Xbox

I do wish that PS5 had a feature where you can preinstall disc games without the disc

#

in terms of disc games, we can relate to what happened with the recent psn outage.

limpid flicker
merry palm
#

tbh unless they come up with a more practical storage medium, i expect physical games to be less and less of the market

#

if you have to download most of it anyway, why have a disc. unless for resale or sharing

hearty plinth
#

at this point maybe they remove the disc drive from next gen consoles and have an option to use it via as an add-on?

merry palm
#

i do expect the jump to some other media form though, as a note

limpid flicker
hearty plinth
#

the only ones who probably still be on disc are peps who has very bad internet

#

i had my series x at launch i have to yet use my disc drive

limpid flicker

Xbox would have to figure out a new way to connect the disc drive I think, if they want to make it optional. USB isn't fast enough for most modern gaming use.

I would assume so.

It just strikes me a curious edge case now, you know? These are the things I wonder about.

rotund flame

why.

twin fractal
#

So! Do you guys think that capcom will make paid remasters of Re4, Re5, Re6 and Re Origins. Or it would be a free update? Maybe a 50% of sale if you own the games already?

#

Cuz, i'm not sure abt what can they improve to make users pay for those games again besides resolution

#

Major tweaks could be 1440p SS, and 4k SX PS5 for all games, and maybe 60fps for the HD Remaster and Zero HD Remaster

fiery python
#

I would guess full price remakes, rather than remasters.

#

They already did 4.

limpid flicker
# rotund flame why.

Because I work with systems that manage similar things, at a lower level of complexity and scale.

rotund flame
#

i'm so sad.

twin fractal
# fiery python They already did 4.

Yeah but, u know, the original games Re4, Re5, RE6, Re0, Re1 has been rated for Xbox Series and PS5. Meaning that an upcoming port is coming. I hope it could be a free update pikagasp

It could be cool to see the HD Project mod of RE4 2005 on consoles! And maybe an option to disable the green filter of re5 haha

Changing the password won't change the fact you need to be online. The only way to be able to continue playing with no internet is to use the home console for your account and not share with other people.

I'm too old to be invested in an open ended story line. I need to get closure.

fluid creek
#

lol

#

i read the patrick rothfuss ones without knowing the trilogy was not complete

#

i was angry

merry palm
#

#

#

I knew Yarros' Empyrean series was just releasing book 3 but I had thought it was 3 of 3.

merry palm
#

yeah

fluid creek
#

oh

#

no, onyx storm is not 3/3 lol

#

the ending has me feeling conflicted

merry palm
#

is it a real end or like.. ongoing?

fluid creek
#

i had no idea randy was into dragon-adjacent smut

noble trout
#

NO. It's NOT. And that was obvious when Mr Shadow Man was busy doing big shadow things.

fluid creek
#

ongoing

merry palm
#

lmao the things we learn in here

#

I skip the smut. 50 Shades ruined the medium for me.

fluid creek
#

hahahaha

#

50 shades was terrible

#

i have opinions about that book

#

a soap box tall

fluid creek
#

#

50 shades is twilight fanfic

#

lol

noble trout
#

Seriously. I read Forever... and a bunch of other Adult Themes but then... 50 shades.

merry palm
#

yep

#

its the worst

noble trout
#

If it was published now, I would have blamed AI.

merry palm
#

one of the very few books i warn people away from

noble trout
#

I thought it would get better. Who knew poor grammar and poor punctuation was an anti-aphrodisiac.

#

Anyway, the dragon story is good. The smut is for the grrls. No objection. Broken furniture is fun too.

#

But SAM. Why conflicted?

merry palm
#

grrls, i like that. makes it dino themed

Onyx Storm ending spoilers:

||because i feel like she deliberately cut stuff out of it to force the cliffhanger. Violet was out for 12 hours and somehow now she's married?? and no one knows where she was? what? how?

but also there was a weird one-off comment earlier about Brennan not having marks on neck/wrist that was absolutely glossed over||

merry palm
#

do you think she had a bad beta reader? bc that kind of thing should have been picked up on?

#

editor person thing department

fluid creek
#

oh i think it was a deliberate choice or some editing to remove stuff to put at the start of book 4

merry palm
#

thats just annoying then

fluid creek
#

like the ||brennan thing|| is obviously a clue of some sort but i can't figure out what the heck she wants us to think

noble trout
#

/spoiler Oh ||I agree that she used the 12 hours for a plot device, but I think a whole bunch of ship happened and 'gen used her power to enable it. Violence it into all sorts of chaos. And possibly unbonded? I couldn't tell if the missing connection was just the boy or the dragons too.||

#

Altho I guess the spoiler is self evident. /dum

#

I think we won't know what happened in that ||12 hours|| for at least two books.

#

With at least 3 chapters being the ol' In-an-Out.

#

To quote A Clockwork Orange.

#

I will freely admit that I had to keep reminding myself that the characters weren't teenagers tho. Was good enough story to keep me reading.

merry palm
#

are we all just teenagers in adult bodies at this point? /hj

spiral shore
#

😀 yup yup

fluid creek
#

It’s a fun read. Like twilight was. But the end of this one just didn’t match the energy of the rest of the book imo

noble trout
#

I don't disagree.

#

But i also just finished it and am more pissed that it's ongoing 😉

#

oO, new Dan Brown book this year too.

#

/sigh

#

!! I have stars expiring this month at Starbucks.

The only good thing about Xbox launching cross-platform games is that I will build my library on Steam instead of Microsoft Store, also I will never buy an Xbox again, it was a good journey, I never imagined that Don Matrick was a better CEO than the current one, the me from 3 years ago would never believe this.

spiral shore
#

i do not plan to stop being on xbox been on it since 2003 and love it BUT I do get what ya saying on the pc side

long maple
#

yeah I wont be rebuilding my collection on another platform

spiral shore
#

all my stuff is pc app and xbox steam i have a lot of games not on console there

long maple
#

1500 games on Xbox, will be getting my PC next year atleast I can play PC Game Pass if I want

paper yarrow
#

I still have a lot of games in the backlog to play on my Xbox, but I don't plan buying any more new games, this current Microsoft strategy smells like Windows Phone thing happening again.

spiral shore
#

I play on battlenet app and Xbox /pc app more than anything

merry palm
#

eh less so than windows phone

#

bc they are already on peoples computers
