I'm doing my tenth year starting in an hour. There will be a bidding war on if I revisit Lifeline on ps2 or Duke Nukem Forever. https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&participantID=513027
It was obvious to me from the start that this was one of those kickstarters that was pushed by a publisher behind the scenes. Against my better judgement I did end up backing for Pennyblood, though what they have shown barely registers as a game for me.
I've personally felt like the PS5 controller was a step back. For someone with big hands, the placement of the share and options buttons have regressed from the PS4. On the ps4, these were recessed more than the PS5 which meant going over them didn't exactly cause an accidental press for me. However this happens all the time for me with the PS5 controller.
It isn't so much that I want a PS5 pro controller than me wanting to just use my ps4 controller.
For me it was the opening preamble that meant the most to me, everything else I knew clicked into place and made the rest of the video redundant personally.
However for those who don't really know, I think the entire video is worth it. Is it too long? Maybe, but I've personally watched that long video about Disney's fastpass and that one lasagna cat video so this is just as valid.
I think at this moment it is the best thing that they can do. I highly doubt that they have a cloud setup, otherwise they could've thrown money at this issue quicker than waiting on more hardware to set up in all their server clusters.
Long term, I think they should look into migrating to the cloud. As someone that works in tech, a project like this scares the hell out of me and would take a lot of time to make sure it is done right. Considering that this is now a 10+ year legacy product at this point.
The jump is both a huge technical project and may require a whole new set of skills for those maintaining things. I've personally seen both sides working SaaS and company maintained servers. The pivot is hard.
I can't think of a single water temple I've ever liked. The most aggregious is probably in megaman legends 2 where you can fall for like 10 seconds, get hit by an enemy, and then proceed to fall with no ability to control for however many more seconds till you finally hit the ground.
The first 8 hours will be very scheduled. Co-streaming some multiplayer madness. I'll also be hosting a one shot of The Green Knight (a ttrpg ruleset they released as a promo for the movie), to which there are a few slots open still so DM me if interested.
Things on the docket include:
It Takes Two
Playing a collection of Sonic games that swap every time you pick up a ring
Hive Time https://cheeseness.itch.io/hive-time
attempting the pacqui 2021 chip challenge
There are also a couple of milestone goals: Reaching $500 means I'll have a segment where I play as a healer in FFXIV for the first time ever (I haven't been a healer in anything since Overwatch first launched and still the thought of it gives me chills.) Reaching $800 means I'll be ending my stream doing a session of ring fit adventure with camera on and weighted. There might be a secret incentive if we meet/exceed my amount raised in 2020 ($1000).
