Sega calls video games that use blockchain technology 'boring'
  • Crono Crono 1y ago 100%

    Only uses I can think of is having an actually finite currency - as blockchain was conceived to solve the problem of digital currency double-spending - or of complete unfungibility - in creating unique items that can't be double-spent either, so they're truly singular. For that last one, it could be something like your character too, which could make federated MMOs a fair amount easier to create.

    Either way, can't appear to understand where the value could lie in games without extremely sophisticated social dynamics that stretch a very long time.

  • Chrono Trigger progress. Where y'all at in the game?

    Has Chrono Trigger+ gotten consistent updates? Remember it being quite unpolished back when I tried it out.

    Is it reproachable to be satisfied? On that note, I don't think wanting game series to continue forever, ad nauseam, is desirable. There's an incalculable value to closure.

    Phantasy Star, for instance, ended on the fourth game, released in 1993, and was never really revived - Online is a separate series - which is something I have major respect for in having been done. The development team and fans got their closure, and naturally moved on - and the series was much better for it. It's eternalized, with a beginning and an end.

    Much vitriol has been given to entertainment industries for rehashing, but the truth of the matter is that they're only supplying for a demand. For as a long as people don't think 'enough', they will puppet corpses around. Really loving something is knowing when to let it go - to live forever in your memory.

    That all said, I still think Metroid has places to go - and I don't want that potential to be blown away by the breakneck production of new titles. The more different from each other that they are, while still being Metroid, the better - and the passage of time pays service to that.

    I'd prefer it if they weren't, honestly. There have been enough Metroid games as of recent; especially counting Prime 4, if that ever comes out. These games are extremely replayable.

    Hope they take another break - not necessarily for as long - and preferably without Mercury Steam at the helm next time. Could surely do without the focus on 'cinematic action' - just let me play the game, man.

    What's with that layer on L3?

    That's an old screenshot; though I believe you can still use -vgui as a launch argument and do one of the workaround methods - pressing Alt + Enter after interacting with one of the top bar menus, or maybe using Small Mode. Could be wrong, and unfortunately can't really test it.

    Here's one of mine, for an example:

    'Personal Flick Stick' Configuration Preview

    This is a DOOM 2016 Pro Controller config I made in a Sunday, for a friend. I'm not very experienced with Flick Stick - since primarily I'm a Steam Controller user - but I tried my best. Tuned the gyro to a 1:1 ratio, which might be low sensitivity to some.

    You can get it here: steam://controllerconfig/379720/2939739244

    P.S.: Appropriate in-game settings are mentioned in the config description. Have fun!

  • As per the title, this is a thread to share and get feedback on your controller configs. You may give an overall description of what you were going for, post a screenshot of the layout, or whatever you'd want to add. **You can get your sharing URL under the cog submenu to the right of 'Edit Layout', on the controller configuration overview.** *Note that this doesn't mean that posting one as a dedicated thread is forbidden in any way* - especially if it is on the more involved side; here's just a casual place to do it. _Get posting!_

    ### Relevant information and links will be on the sidebar. While you ought not to self-censor, here are some guidelines that I'll try to enforce as consistently - disregarding of my own whims and attachments - as possible, in order to maintain the usefulness of this sub: - Topics outside of Steam Input and surrounding subjects are fair game, so long as they sprout in some way from the former; i.e. you're not immediately and markedly off-topic. _Tangents are fine and encouraged._ - **I'll always err on the side of keeping content up. _In dubio pro reo._** If this sub ever gets more moderators, these will be maintained. In fact, if you disagree with one of my actions, you're encouraged to berate me here. The point of this is discussion after all, not my intact ego. **Have fun!**
