So some game talk from me
First of all, I might actually get the Metal Gear Solid Volume 1 collection now, cause there has been a project that has recently released some VERY good support for the games. (Subsistence camera for Metal Gear Solid 2 has been something I've wanted for a LONG time, I know the "PC" version got a working one but... rather would have the actual game, WITH the support as well... also learned it WAS in the works officially in the HD collection, but never made the final release)
Second, I find it funny AND cool that Hello Neighbor has been getting community support, never got the game but always liked the alpha build look till... it became a janky mess. (I love broken games actually, but didn't like how it felt like the neighbor's house got SO gigantic... like as if the developer figured "how to make this work... just add more floors!" which then turned the house into a fun house really lmao) Meanwhile the community making quite a few different versions of what creators felt like how the game SHOULD have been... which honestly works, cause some are short experiences (good for a few hours of experience) or have planned out more in the future... which it's weird seeing the community work out a game that isn't as broken as a paid product too lol
My current kick being Pokemon Champions which... the mobile version can't come any quicker. I love the game don't get me wrong, however... playing it on my phone so I can play against people ANYTIME, versus restricted to my Switch (2) or even playing on my AYN THOR, which I can hook up to my computer if I did want to play on my TV, or just play it on a smaller, PORTABLE handheld? (in bed without having to be restricted to the Switch... while it is a handheld, playing on a device that big does wear my arms out I know, first world problem, blame my RA) As much as I like the game, the restrictiveness of being on a console where you NEED to be connected online to play? (so if you are not home or at a good wifi spot, can't play) That's why it can't come ANY sooner and hoping "summer release" means next month, not July, or worse, August.
... Which speaking of AYN THOR, Mina the Hollower, definitely difficult. (some people may need to mess with modifiers to play it without the difficulty spike) But will also say... it plays wonderfully on the AYN THOR. Almost like it was made for something as small and portable as it.
So, definitely a lot of things going on in the gaming world, some good, some bad... still waiting on the Steam Frame, even if the price will be stupid, it's the last "hardware" thing I might get for a while, I just REALLY want a good VR headset that will last for years, as unlike Meta and other companies, Valve seems to usually put stuff out, and then not make another things for a LONG time. (While the Steam Deck DID get an upgrade not long after which was the OLED model, the upgrades wasn't anything minus things that didn't involve the system itself, just the screen, battery and better wifi compatibility... and then look at the Valve Index, it took them 7 years to produce a new headset, and it still is compatible with stuff, unlike Meta discontinuing their support for the Quest 2 and it will REQUIRE a tether after it's final day of support. (at least the Frame will have it's own storage AND the tether can be wireless too via dongle)
