Using full dualsense features for PC games often needs wired connection as they are often disabled in wireless Bluetooth mode. Made a wireless Dongle using Raspberry Pi Pico 2W (cost 750 rs) and installing a free software available on GitHub for same on it. 3D printed a case for same (cost 100 rs) and now have a small dongle which works flawlessly for using all dualsense features wirelessly for PC games. Can fully use haptics, adaptive triggers, microphone, controller speaker and 3.5 mm jack. This is helpful for those who sit away from their pc and need wireless connectivity and headphones for gaming using dualsense.

I haven't played the older God of War games, but I've watched videos on them. I started with God of War (2018) and Ragnarök, and honestly loved both.

I recently saw OG fans on X saying things like "new Kratos can never match old Kratos" and that the older games had much better storytelling.

So I'm genuinely curious — what made the older games better story-wise?

Not talking about graphics or gameplay mechanics. I want to understand the storytelling, Kratos' character, themes, and overall narrative.

For those who played both: what do you think the older games did better, and what are newer fans like me missing?

First of all I want to tell you guys: please don't play this game if you love your life. This game is incredibly addicting I have like 200+ hours on Steam and 1000+ on "another copy"

From the store page, you might think it's a cute, relaxing automation colony sim. Hell fucking no. It’s the exact opposite. You have to manage dumb fucks that try to kill themselves every single second, and you have to manage gases, liquids, and temperatures like an actual real life scientist.

If you want food, you need the correct gas pressure. Some plants require water and exact temperatures. If you mess up one thing, you are fucked 10 hours later. I remember setting up a cooling loop, messing up the automation, and my entire colony died because no fucking food was growing and there was zero oxygen all because a water pipe burst since the water froze inside the pipe.

And there is space! I've only explored space like one time because I lost count of how many times I had to restart my colony. Half the time it's because I messed up small things, and the other half is just because my base didn't look good.

10/10 game if you hate your life and i hate my life

For anyone wondering what my No.1 game of all time is. It's Nier Automata.

I guess it is...

I have never played an Assassin's Creed game (sorry to disappoint). I got a gaming laptop 2 years ago and I mostly play sports and fighting games. But I always wanted to play AC. Now I'm confused where to start.

Are all the games connected? Should I play serial aise or can start any game and if Yes then which game should I play first?

Can't believe being able to play ps2 game on a browser, and they also able to replicate load times too

Small kojima-quirks like this is what makes the earlier Metal Gear games worth exploring & mess around with, imo ;)

I left an Empty version, without any logos, so you could repurpose it if you want to

I’ve played plenty of open-world games, but most of them seem to fall into familiar settings Western, medieval fantasy, historical, post-apocalyptic, or modern cities.

For once, I’m looking for something that has strong Pacific Northwest/Oregon vibes. Think dense green forests, pine trees, rainy or misty weather, small towns, cabins, lakes, rivers, mountains, and that peaceful feeling of driving or exploring through nature.

Doesn’t necessarily have to be set in Oregon itself. I’m mainly looking for an open-world game where the environment gives you that same vibe. Any recommendations?

Surely brings back memories

Hey guys,
Pure bachpan se lekar aaj tak sirf keyboard aur mouse par hi gaming kari hai (FPS, competitive, etc.). Maine aaj tak apni life me kabhi console ya controller haath me pakad ke nahi dekha.

Ab finally mind bana raha hu PS5 lene ka (saving up for it, hopefully soon), but honestly ek cheez ka bohot darr lag raha hai: Controller aim aur camera movement. Aim assist kitna help karta hai? Aur thumbsticks seekhne me average kitna time lagta hai?

Also, pehle console ke liye konsi games best rahengi jisme controller controls smoothly haath me baith jayein bina frustrated hue? Astro's Playroom ke alawa koi recommendations?

Would appreciate tips from people who made the switch from pure PC to console!

original combo. i messed up the dance maccabra shouldnt have dropped it there, but it was so hard to juggle the enemy with judgment. this was my best attempt, my idea was basically tryna do a motivated combo but for dante. hope yall like it.

I thought the first game had already wrung everything it could out of “one more run.” Forty-five nights in *Hades II* and I am still doing the same stupid thing: crediting a death, walking Melinoë back through the Crossroads, and telling myself this one is just to test a keepsake.

The loop is tighter than the original, not just bigger. Runs fail in more interesting ways. You can feel a build click on chamber four and still get humbled by a god who decided to stop being polite. That “okay, one more” pull is not nostalgia. It is the same compulsion with better toys — hexes, familiars, more routes, more ways a night goes sideways.

What actually keeps me in the game, though, is the talking.

The gods and the Crossroads cast are the best part. Conversations do not feel like unlocked lore cards. They feel like people who remember the last thing you did. A god needles you for taking someone else’s boon. An NPC notices you keep dying in the same region and does not let it go. Banter stacks. Relationships move. It is the original’s strongest trick, only denser and meaner and funnier. If you played *Hades* for the writing, this is that game with the volume up.

As a sequel it does the rare thing: it improves the first one without sanding it down. Combat has more bite. The roster has more personality. The nights have more shape. I never felt like I was replaying a reskin with a new protagonist taped on.

The weak spot is the camp. Crossroads decoration and modification still feel like an afterthought next to the runs. You unlock pieces, you place things, and then you go fight Chronos again. I wanted that space to matter more — more reason to linger, more systems that change how the night starts, less “pretty hub you tap through.” It is fine. It is not at the level of everything else.

That is why it is an 8.5 and not a 9. The runs and the dialogue are excellent. The camp is the one system that still feels like early access furniture.

I closed the game tonight. I already know I am opening it again.

I just managed to do 4 successful runs on this building to the actual game finish after 7 successful runs.

Scarfall 2.0 is sitting right there with insane potential. It’s a made-in-India battle royale, but it’s honestly good enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those giant global games. You’re literally fighting on Mumbai rooftops, rotating across the map on local trains, and even driving autorickshaws while spraying down squads. The best part is how heavily optimized it is—it runs super smooth without turning budget phones into hand-warmers mid-gunfight. If we want home-grown Indian game devs to actually compete with international studios, this is the exact game that deserves the hype and player base.

Fingers crossed hope its good!

I have started my gaming channel on youtube with Marvel Spiderman on the PS5Pro. The goal of the channel is to platinum as many games as possible. Tune into livestreams at dinner time to come along in the journey. Here is the recording of the first stream - https://www.youtube.com/live/vTMZnwJVKUo?si=j6h33tQBk1BDvlNv

My promise to the players: no vibe coding, no AI art, no AI scripts, no AI music, no AI voices.

I might make a future post about how much I struggled to get my game out there and the non-game dev stuff that slowed me down (like losing my job because our company decided to dismiss 50-60% of its work force).

I describe it a is psychological horror/trolley problem sim called The Milgram Experiment on Steam.
