If I don't engage with something basically every day I just forget it exists. Doesn't matter if it's a friend, a TV show I'm watching or working out every morning.

Love Summit, and idunnolulz is a fantastic dev. It's already my preferred app, but when the whole roadmap is implemented it will be the best by a margin I think.
+1, would be really great!
God that brings me back to middle school computer classes and hacking together your own websites with basic HTML.
Isn't this old news? I am pretty sure they submitted a request back in like February already.
If you want the SNES emulation flavour I am a big fan of the Woolsey Uncensored romhack. So much of the 90s Final Fantasy charm (in the west) came from Woolsey's uniquely creative translations, and it's a shame to miss out on it in my opinion.
If you prefer the Pixel Remaster version there is a mod to use the Woolsey Uncensored script instead for that one too. I haven't tested that one personally but it could potentially be the best of both worlds if it works.
The Talos Principle series are probably the biggest and best 3D first-person puzzle games out there, together with the Portal series.
I think Blue Prince needs to be added to this list going forward.
I assume you've already played Final Fantasy VI?
It's a damn shame because Sync is absolutely excellent, but it's already had several quite severe bugs gone unfixed for over a year now, and it will stop working altogether with Lemmy 1.0.
If you're looking for an alternative Summit has been great, and the developer is super active and responsive. It's without a doubt the best alternative, in my opinion.
So my impatient gaming is over for the moment. I'm finally finished with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Well, I say finished but that is a bit of a lie. It still lives rent free in my head and I'm still watching people play it to relive those first playthrough moments. But I'm done playing for now. I was actually tempted to go straight back and do NG+ immediately after seeing the credits, and that is a very rare feeling for me. Last time I had that feeling was Alan Wake 2. Anyway, the game is great: play it, wishlist it, whatever - just don't miss it. I think it will be a shoe-in for Game of the Year, and it's one of the best games I've ever played.
As my repentance for being super impatient two months in a row with Blue Prince and Expedition 33 back-to-back, I've gone back to an old classic for my next game: F.E.A.R.. I never actually played it back in the day, I remember trying the demo but my PC at the time couldn't handle it and it fell to the wayside later as I played other games. I've installed a couple of mods: upscaled textures (didn't get the actual Rivarez Mod, just the textures) and the Echo Patch for stuff like HUD scaling and FPS fix. I'm also playing on DLDSR 1.78x and with RTX HDR.
With all that said, the game holds up incredibly well. The lighting and atmosphere is phenomenal, but what is really striking is the gunplay and enemy AI. This really doesn't feel like a 20-year-old game. Even if you completely ignore the horror elements, the game is just an incredibly enjoyable shooter, with every engagement feeling thrilling as enemies flank you, hide, flee, sneak and flush you out with grenades. The bullet time is cinematic, but a little overpowered. Though you can just elect to not use it.
If you haven't already, pick it up on GOG and play it. You can probably get it for like a dollar on sale and that's an absolute steal. Now if only I could get EAX emulation working...
That's when you just flip a coin between positive or negative response and hope for the best.
