You say this a lot. I am still not seeing a sticky brimming with all the exciting news of VR, the gaming section(s) flooded with VR content that bores those of us that like games worth playing at present time, you sharing all the exciting news of how the VR company is going to lock me in with DRM this time rather than make it cross platform...

It seems like no ones gonna bother unless there is an actual section on it- and uh... I say this a lot because I’m passionate about VR and I don’t know who to bother besides Shaun- XD

Honestly it feels pretty out of place to only make VR-related threads in general discussion or the PC section- considering PCVR will likely become more and more niche over time as standalone VR grows. It’s just more convenient and cheaper for consumers to get into

Why create a section for a thing only like 5 people own?
Mama Looigi
Mama Looigi
Because more than 5 people own it. Over 2% of all steam users use VR- and steam users certainly aren’t the only ones using it. 2% may not seem like much but I mean... when you compare it to the total amount of users, 2% is actually a lot for something new.

Quite a few users here have VR already- and I’m sure there’s a huge amount here who use it but just don’t mention it because there’s no where to talk about it. And didn’t you say you’ve been depressed at the thought that you’ll never get your hands on it at home? I’ve been around since VR went consumer, which makes me a VR boomer compared to most the VR users here.

I can certainly say that VR will continue to grow. In fact if you saw all the things I saw and took in all the news, you’d know that VR certainly isn’t a fad

" didn’t you say you’ve been depressed at the thought that you’ll never get your hands on it at home" depressed is a bit strong, it's more of a "oh well"

Sections don't make discussion, else Windows phone would have done something. Most users will also being using the view new posts too.
Sections happen because obvious (new console for example) or when they take something over -- general off topic was getting taken over with film trailers, books and TV show discussion so we got that section.
General chit-chat

    good night
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    as to you
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How do you know if the night will be good when you're asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    because i didn't say i was asleep
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    i said i was sleeping...
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    sleeping with uremum
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Even my mum slept on that uremum
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
