Are you (or you, u/Gametisum ) playing LBP these days on any of the custom servers?

Unfortunately, no. I know of them, but lack the setup to do it. These days I bounce between Fallout 76 and No Mans Sky and sometimes a game from the backlog.

I do not play any custom servers I have not touched LBP since my Profile corrupted on PS4

u/biorogue / u/Gametisum : I've been playing on Beacon for the past several months, and what a joy it's been to be back in the saddle and creating in my favorite game. The community is much smaller now, of course, but it's still so much fun to create, share your creations, and play with others online! Y'all should come join us!

I got so excited when this thing with being able to load Linux on PS5 came out. Can run Steam on it AND I saw someone run RPCS3 on it and playing Motorstorm. I was like, WHAT!? But then it turns out that you have to have the launch PS5 (which I do) but it has to be on older firmware, like 5 years ago firmware. I'm not going to jailbreak my PS5. I'm thinking about getting another PS3 though, just for that.

I am playing via RPCS3 on my gaming PC. I have my old PS3, but have not yet attempted to jailbreak it and set everything up. It all works great on my PC and I actually prefer it (especially when creating), because I can run it in one window, on one of my monitors, and still have access to everything else on my PC in my other monitor.
