  • I need to remind some people here who don't seem to understand something.

    Forks may be dead and development may not be as fast as the original.

    However - you must think about the future and not the situation right now. Yuzu and Ryujinx sources will be invaluable information for people making emulators later down the line.

    It's a matter of when and not if someone picks it up again.

  • The way I did it is by trying to solve more and more advanced problems with simpler tools/features, then looking at more advanced features and seeing where they could be applied to make the problem solving simpler. Rinse and repeat.

    An easy example that I can remember is making arrays that dynamically expand. I started with the barebones malloc and worked out how to use std::vector (and other list types) in its place.

    Understanding that concept is, what I believe, to be the foundation of learning programming.

    I'm no pro whatsoever, but using this method really helps me pick up and learn new languages.

  • Yeah I meant don't use joycons lol

    Pro Controller at the very least. CTR is a game that should be played with a dpad for steering. You can use the analog inputs but some more advanced tricks (such as tight steering) will require a solid dpad.

  • And that't the crux of the issue. Stenzek doesn't actually understand the reality of licensing.

    The reality is this - you can't do anything without a lawyer. Laweyrs cost money (pro bono isn't a thing in the copyright world AFAIK, but IANAL).

    If he wanted to avoid this, then maybe he should've kept it closed source from the beginning. Chinese sellers on AliExpress couldn't care less about licensing anyway, so that way he'd have at least some protection.

    IMO his course of action so far has been wrong.

    What he should've done is this:

    1. Cause a stir
    2. Get support from the community
    3. Open up donations for the project (or just himself, since you don't want a repeat of Yuzu)

    He could even go after Arcade1up legally if he raised funds, but that's not even worth the time if you ask me.

  • To top it off, what matters at the end of the day js this - people generally don't care about graphics anymore!

    Even if you end up with graphics that are worse than a console, you still have:

    • an option to upgrade later
    • options to configure graphics (generally games actually optimize themselves pretty well nowadays)
    • an open platform to do things the way you want

    PS5 Pro makes absolutely no sense to me.

  • It's just their ego showing through.

    It basically now comes down to the current devs depending on new Rust devs for anything that interacts with Rust code.

    They could just work together with Rust devs to solve any issues (API for example).

    But their ego doesn't allow for it. They want to do everything by themselves because that's how it always was (up until now).

    Sure, you could say it's more efficient to work on things alone for some people, and I'd agree here, but realistically that's not going to matter because the most interactivity that exists (at the moment) between Rust and C in Linux is... the API. Something that they touch up on once in a while. Once it's solid enough, they don't have to touch it anymore at all.

    This is a completely new challenge that the Linux devs are facing now after a new language has been introduced. It was tried before, but now it's been approved. The only person they should be mad at is Linus, not the Rust devs.

  • Yeah enabling remote debugging because the dev thought it made it easier is a pretty big oof.

    But this is just strike one. It's a one man show, after all, so cutting them some slack is warranted when it comes to this specific topic.

    Nevertheless, your concerns aren't unfounded. This project needs more contributors to be able to keep up. (Thorium is basically in the same boat)

  • Permanently Deleted

  • Shame that PES/WE not only got renamed to eFootball, but also sufferred from the post-Kojima PTSD at Konami.

    It recently caught up to DDR and it's slowly catching up to Yu-Gi-Oh as well (if it didn't already).

  • I used to play Duel Links and shortly Master Duel after it came out. I don't anymore but hopefully this will help.

    If I was going back to the game, I'd go to look for budget deck lists and seeing what ranks up easily. Most of the community is on Discord and Reddit, as well as YouTube (yugitubers and alike) so I'd go and look there. (Not to mention Dkayed's website, https://masterduelmeta.com and looking at the decks that topped, you'll be surprised it's sometimes not all meta stuff)

    I'd also go look for some easy farming methods. These usually come in a form of a current event (IIRC in MD there are these "festivals" for each card type, such as Synchro Festival). These events are usually a very easy way to gain a lot of gems for not much playing.

    It is what it is. TCG paper Yu-Gi-Oh is even more expensive than MD.

    DL is arguably cheaper but it's been a long time since I last played (2021).

    EDIT: Oh and before I forget - there will always be Dueling Book as a free alternative. This is a manual simulator, not an automated one, and allows you to use any card you want with custom rules.
