I mean, it's like a hobby. If you are unlocking them with a program you're just cheating on yourself. If you feel like you need to cheat to make yourself feel better about something that doesn't impact anyone else, then I think you should reflect a bit on that and ask yourself why you wanted it in the first place.
But that's just like, my opinion, man. It doesn't really harm anyone in the end. I just think achievements are used as carrots on a stick, exploiting the human psyche of "number go up = dopamine" to make the player think the game has more value than it does, or is "worth the price" because you got so many hours out of it (grinding for those last shitty achievements).
If you feel like you need more guidance, don't hesitate to look up a guide or for tips on how to get the most out of the game. If you're willing, of course.
Subnautica is one of those games where it needs to "click", and this moment is different for a lot of people. For some it never happens. I will say there is a scanner room you can get to scan for resources, but that will probably not sway you.
I'm not gonna tell you to keep playing because it will get better or something, but I want to address one thing: Subnautica is a game about exploration and discovery. If you do not enjoy these elements in a game, or get motivated by it, then you will probably miss the complex lore hidden in the logs or you will not value it as much as you could have.
Satisfactory is less of a crafting game and more of a factory automation game, so this might be another reason.
Might I suggest trying out Techtonica? It's like a mix of Factorio and Satisfactory in the sense that you build factories, but it's more on a grid and stuff is a lot smaller than in Satisfactory. I mention this game because some elements reminded me of Subnautica (like distress signals to find) but it doesn't have the survival element to it.
Speaking of survival: you can turn that off in Subnautica. You could try that. But again, if discovery and exploration isn't your thing, it would just put more focus on the feeling of aimlessly wandering.
ITT: people who think Balatro is so good they don't even need to spell it right. They're right though.
Now that I have your attention, check out Dungeons & Degenerate Gamblers if you prefer blackjack over poker. Or Solitairica if you enjoy Solitaire. Should run like a dream on Steam Deck as well.
I think you can expect about the same as with the PS4 Pro. Maybe finally this time it will be a smooth actual 4k (ok actually, UHD) gaming experience. But that's kinda what we said last time too, so I don't know.
Developers would still have to optimize their games to get the most out of the hardware, unless we're talking about a game that was already performing suboptimal and throwing raw power at it will hide the surface level problems so it looks smoother.
I would love to see all this horsepower being used to actually make the games better by design, like pathfinding and NPC behaviour. The last big breakthrough we had was raytracing, which proved that it wasn't photorealism that makes it look better, but accurate lighting and shadows. For the consoles it was using an SSD for almost instant loading times.
But I digress. I'm not upgrading my PS5 either, but I can see the value for power users that play competitively or something.
I've met people who hold the same opinions and express themselves in exactly the same way. Simultaneously denying that something is said while also recognising his tendency to twist things.
So I wasn't giving the benefit of the doubt. Sarcasm doesn't work on the internet if there's real people out there saying the exact same thing.
But yeah in hindsight, hopefully that was just that.
You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.
Bush: Whatever you want.
Trump: Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.
He lives rent free in your head
Commenting about something Trump said under an article about something Trump said is quite relevant. In your own confident words: stop lying on the internet.
I won't shoot the messenger, but I need to know: what is the "institutionalized sex trafficking" you are referring to and how does it fit with being an important issue when you look at Trump vs Harris?
Only one of them is in pictures with Epstein for a start. So how do they flip that around? Or are we talking Q stuff like pizzagate?
Also important to know: why would Harris be the largest potential obstacle to be capable of addressing it?
