Pampering a King Cobra... in c/animals@lemmy.world

Or it could just be a good snake who wants pets and we should love it and care for it and give it all the frozen mice it wants.

I mean, I think we should do that regardless. Thanks for the information though. I don't know a lot about snakes, so I only had general guesses. That all makes sense I didn't think about shedding specifically.

    I'm really curious about what's happening here. If anyone knows about snakes I'm just curious about what the snake is getting out of this. It looks like it's enjoying this but first of all I know you can't make assumptions about how an animal is behaving but it's certainly not getting trying to leave. Does it like the moisture, or the feeling of the water itself, or is it cooling off, all of the above?

    Someone Turned Their Steam Deck Into A Clamshell Handheld in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

    This is a cool idea, the clamshell would make it a lot easier to toss into a bag or something without needing a case but that particular design doesn't feel like it'd be the most comfortable to hold while playing. I think it'll be interesting to see if anyone iterates on this idea at all.

    Vampire Survivors’ developer is working on over 15 games, including IP collaborations in c/games@lemmy.world
    [–] 2 points 6 months ago

    It's really easy and starting to feel kind of boring. They (the developer) have some fun ideas and I hope they keep growing but the bad UI is already old on the second game and so far it doesn't feel super well thought out. I'm probably going to give it some more time, it's at least easy enough to play on steam deck but unless some depth or strategy appears I probably won't be playing it for long.

    That said for $10 I'll probably at least "get my money's worth from it" but I don't see it holding my attention for as long as something like slay the spire 2.

    I hated that boss. I was seriously worried about the DLC after fighting it but luckily I thought the rest of it was generally pretty good. Lots of fun things that I won't get into for obvious reasons. That is not a great early impression for the DLC though.

    Nioh 3 and Nioh 2 (sh.itjust.works)
     

    What are your thoughts on jumping right into Nioh 3 for those that have played it?

    I've played through Nioh 1 and I already own Nioh 2, got them on sale when I heard Nioh 3 was coming out. So knowing that I already own Nioh 2 what are your thoughts on play order? I assume the stories don't really interconnect enough to matter like most souls games but I know sometimes it's harder to go back to the old games.

    I bought both games with the plan to play through them sometime before 3 came out. I made it through 1 and got distracted with other things. Now that Nioh 3 has been out a while I'm tempted to just jump in and come back to 2 later. Nioh 1 was a fairly long game too and I assume 2 and 3 won't be any shorter. But since I already own Nioh 2 do you all think I'm better off playing through it first before I play 3? Even if it's just because going back to the older game will be hard because of advancements in Nioh 3.

    [DS2] I played Scholar is it worth playing the base game? (sh.itjust.works)
     

    Hey all, I really started playing the souls games with Bloodborne. After that I picked up DS3 and eventually DS1. I had originally skipped DS2 because I had heard how it was polarizing.

    Now I've played through all the mainline games a couple of times at least plus plenty of other souls-likes not made by FromSoft but I've only played through DS2 once, last year I went through all the games in order, just for the fun of it and along with it my first time playing through DS2. I tried not to let the previous discourse color my thoughts too much and it's since had more people coming out to defend many aspects of the game recently.

    Overall I liked it, it certainly wasn't a terrible game and I feel like it did a lot of neat things that are unique to the game but... I still also had more than a few areas and moments that made the game feel like a slog, it was the only one where I didn't decide to go through all the DLCs. By the time I made it to the end I was ready to move onto a newer game with some improvements.

    I'm positive there are tons of things I never found or experienced. I went through it mostly blind and it was a casual run through since I was just playing all the games. I'm not saying I won't go through it again but it's probably the lowest on my list of souls games for a replay but I've also heard that Scholar isn't the best enhanced version.

    TLDR; I thought Scholar of the First Sin was fine but overall had some frustrating moments. The next time I'm thinking about going back to old games though do you all think it'd be worth picking up the base version of the game and playing through it instead?
