Well, Im a sorry if I offended you

like someone working of an AI generated transcript

Can I just point out the insane irony of someone critiquing my writing when they can’t spell? This would be hilarious if it wasn’t so painful.

Of course you offended me. I’m a writer, and you said that I didn’t write it. It’s disgusting.

The funny thing (well, funny to me anyway) is that someone shared my article on Reddit, and it has been viewed so far 261K times. It has 918 upvotes and 89 comments. And do you know how many of them thought this was written by A.I.?

Zero.

Being a writer, a comment like yours is not only insulting, but dangerous to me. It also makes me really sad. So thanks.

I used to adore the en dash and em dash. If I see writing I did and submitted around with articles and guides from like three years ago, they’re all through it. But then GPT boomed and I couldn’t be bothered dealing with the allegations. Ironically, those claims still haunt me.

It can be so exhausting that we need to do this to appear human now. It can just be heartbreaking!

What the absolute fuck.

No. Jesus. What the hell? I’ve been writing on here for a long time. And I’m not A.I.

So gross.

In fact, tiny edit here. The moderator of this community will speak for me, I’ve been writing things for this space for a long time now. More than that I’m more than happy for you to come and join our discord if you’d like. I have friends in there like the former lead tech writing for Forbes, or the guy who owns the site who will speak for me and what I write.

I hate this shit. The mere face we can write and this whole new scene of A.I. replicating writers’ work and then it is doubted and we have to deal with this is the worlds’ most exhausting nonsense to deal with.

The invite remains, join our discord. There’s plenty of devs and journalists who will attest to me being on the level.

NSL is created by a racist jerk and coded with GPT.

What’s not to love?

I spy two of my very good friends in this picture!

That sounds super interesting!

Also makes me sad that all that has disappeared now to time. I’d love to have seen it :(

An easy mistake to make!

You’ll be thinking of my good friend Gardiner, whose YouTube channel is well known!

But no, I just write on his site. I used to contribute to a bunch of sites and spaces you might know, but these days I only share articles on his site.

And thank you! I appreciate that, glad you enjoyed this one :)

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoy it, I’m really proud of this one :)

I use RetroDECK, which in turn uses the left-hand trackpad on the SteamDeck as a ‘radial dial’. I touch it, then select ‘quick’ then select ‘save’ - and it then makes an instant save state. So I don’t have to use any menu or loading point. I just start a game, then use the touchpad to ‘load’ that state and it is instant!

Save anywhere, any time. And load the same way. :)

It absolutely is!

I have a screenshot in the article of me doing just that. In fact it handles it so well that you can upscale the resolution a ton, and you can add HD texture packs. So it plays unbelievably well. Check my linked post up the top in this post and you’ll find some details I go into for getting it to work with HD texture packs!

The games have been decompiled and made to run native via openGOAL, so they’re far better using that via Decky Loader than emulated!

Thank you!

I have got it on my Steam Deck, but rather the PS3 version (using RPCS3/RetroDECK), and I’m wondering which one I should play when I do try it! Everyone speaks so highly of it, I’m looking forward to!

That’s an amazing idea!

I love the cheat code, and the idea of the game. Thank you for this, I’d never have looked at it (more of a Batman fan than Spidey), so this is a perfect recommendation!!!

Shadow of the Colossus is one I have for RPCS3…should I instead opt for a polished HD texture PS2 version? From what I read, there was some big frame-rate issues on the PS3 version

Rule of Rose is one I already have on my emulator! You can see it in the picture there, and the HD texture pack I got for that was like…one billion GB, so the textures are phenomenally polished!!!

Tenchu!!! I like the look of this one, will do!!!

Having played Persona 4 and 5…will 3 still be worth my time?

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks so much for both reading what I write, and for check in!

I’m okay, for the most part. The good news is that my kidneys have gotten the all-clear and are totally fine. The not-so-good news is that I do have nerve damage. Oh my right hip, and on my left thigh. That means I won’t know for another 10 months if I am able to reverse or slow the damage at all.

A hard pill to swallow (so to speak), and pretty devastating all up. But, I was expecting worse!!!

But I’m in a better place, I’ve cut back on work a ton (lucky to be in the financial position to do so), and am focusing on lots of physical activity. I’m also spending time bringing the cabin I bought to life - which has been really nice. Escaping Paris helped I think.

And, catching up on writing plenty of gaming, too. I’ve so many to come in the next week or two, not including any dedicated Steam Deck / Gaming News posts. So its really nice to get back to them!

Thanks for writing, always makes me smile :)

These are wonderful! Exactly the kind of thing I hoped might be suggested - less reviews generally means less known, so I’m excited to try!

I think some people get caught up on the few AAA offerings, and miss the indie car games. But maybe I’m generalizing.

I appreciate these, hope others do also :)
