well, usually when a vtuber is a member of some sort of company, they usually keep the rights for the character. so, when vtuber quits, they have to either create a new character, or make a face reveal. and both is not something people would want to do

i could install Control Ultimate edition but............idk dont wanna have the steam deck explode lmao
royal relic
DUDE
i have control on me deck
installed it after finishing it twice
well - finishing it once on pc
and enduring it on ps4 (at 13 frames per second)
and i got it on the deck just to test it out
as this sort of benchmark
random sedge
and?
royal relic
and if you tweak your settings right it's gonna look better than it does on ps4
while running at locked 45 fps
random sedge
how bout Prey?
royal relic
that infamous staircase that was C H U G G I N G at 13 fps on ps4 does 42-45 fps on the deck
random sedge
also NEAT that you also play Control i love the story line💜 even tho im not that far yet
royal relic
probably even more, i just limited it to 45
i'm... actually not the biggest fan of control's story
i like it's writing, but not the story as a whole
but it's still a damn fine game
random sedge
that infamous staircase that was ***C H U G G I N G*** at 13 fps on ps4 does 42-...
pov Cult of the lamb just lags on the nintendo switch and on the steam deck you get a few dips but very few
oh i forgot lol also nice you can charge the steam deck while its powered off something nintendo cant do

there's one point around halfway through control that just makes me go like

you're kidding me
nope you can charge it while powered off even if you have the deck docked!
royal relic
overpowered bosses?
in control?
random sedge
overpowered bosses?
in control?
like those runs with a certain lvl
i was waaaaay lower due to sidequests
royal relic
im super confused
but maybe it's because i find control to be the easiest remedy game
probably because it doesn't have difficulty settings but this magical director system thingy that does whatever it wants
random sedge
but maybe it's because i find control to be the easiest remedy game
Control is one of the first triple A games for me (if you dont count Alien Iso as triple A)
royal relic
like - it's nowhere near the absurd difficulty levels of max payne 1
i wouldn't even call control a AA game
like - remedy had to cut down HARD on a lot of aspects after quantum break
random sedge
i wouldn't even call control a AA game <:dusa:522248771409543188>
the pc req does make it triple A

now that was AAA
but it didn't make a lot of money

it plays well, looks amazing for a handheld

how bout in docked mode?

and playing on sticks at least gives some vague sense of challenge

ive no idea maybe its cos the wifi here is rather sluggish
royal relic
so i'm watching that tech talk about rendering in hades 1 and 2
and...
huh 
https://youtu.be/Vj9elQc0ix4?t=590
i'm not 100% if i got this bit right, but
i didn't realize they had fixed mipmaps
with camera zooming in and out since...
well - since bastion, really
like in that zia level or some vistas in transistor or the camera going 
in pyre
you'd think that would be more noticable
random sedge
no idea...what ur talking bout
royal relic
mipmaps
tall owl
mapmips
royal relic
no idea...what ur talking bout
ok so i'm not really qualified to talk about this ||despite writing my own engine using opengl libraries that had to deal with mipmaps back at uni lmao||, but
imagine having a really detailed, grainiy texture in a game
like sand or something
that looks really sharp and clean when looked up close
random sedge
im a gamer ok not a dev😭
random sedge
that looks really sharp and clean when looked up close
like with Control and the u know clock mission?
royal relic
now - when you zoom out the camera all those pixels that make all those fine little details will cover less and less of your screen
and eventually it will look like they're "fighting" for screen real estate (i'm really simplifying this but i hope you get the point)
and here's where mipmaps come in
mipmaps are like... lower resolution versions of the same texture
and the game will switch between full res and mipmaps depending on the distance and how much (or how little) screen said texture takes
so in this sand texture example - as you zoom out, the game will go like "oh ok so this texture is far away so the player can't really take a good look at it so i won't bother wasting processing power on rendering the full resolution texture and switch to a smaller mipmap - since it takes a smaller part of the screen"
and this lower quality version ironically looks better when viewed from a distance and runs better
anyways - going back to supergiant games, uh
games
random sedge
ok
royal relic
that presentation says "exported at fixed mip levels" - which is kinda vague for me
but what i think it means is that there's very little set mip levels
like - i dunno - 2x maybe?
and i'm surprised cause i was expecting a more robust solution for those games
unless i just didn't understand that point and im just talking crazy
which is a possibility

it's bink video
of course it's bink
oooohhh 
so in hades 2 enemies are actually 3d models instead of sprites / bink videos
yeah i kinda suspected that
after seeing those tiny spinny guys in the first biome i was like "now hang on a minute something ain't right here" 
and there was some aliasing on the screaming ghost ladies (i'm bad with remembering names)

tall owl
why didn't they put subway surfers gameplay next to the slides, i can barely follow
royal relic
actually - all this talk made me thonk 
i wonder if the fact that characters and enemies aren't bink videos anymore in hades 2 is the reason why it runs better than 1 on the deck
especially considering how visually busy this game can get

some time ago i've stumbled across some oatmilk, and decided to give it a try just for the sake of it
(it was also cheaper)
and suddenly, it's pretty nice
by the taste, it's just a milk, with some oat flavor added
perfect for breakfast with flakes or something
muted smelt
its very interesting that its cheaper than milk. always see them as more expensive

maybe it's because milk price here have already taken off into the stratosphere due to many reasons, and these kind of alternatives are sorta new

here, the more expensive are the ‚barista quality‘ ones for like 4€/L but a bit hidden you have the normal ones for 1-2€ which is better

gonna go a long way before it can replace soy milk here

my friend hate coconuts for some reason, so she didn't try it, but recommended anyway.. i tried, and yes, it's a milk with coconut taste
i wonder though if it's really what's inside coconuts from the beginning, or there's some kind of processing involved, just like with other types
oat milk and coconut milk might taste strange for people, but soy milk just.. you know
it tastes okay, but puts some kind of lump in the throat, like, a choking feeling
