gotta enable the scan lines and put it at 144hz and it’s so worth it

those indie games that try to look retro really shine once you have on those scan lines and they’re so snappy on a 144hz CRT

i was kind of put off from that style because pixel art isn’t interesting to me (seems like a relic that’s just simple and lazy to do) but once you have a set up where the game could fool you into actually being old school it’s like a blast from past and they’re actually better than the real classics
Didn't even know CRTs supported 144hz.

Do you just enable this in the service menu or gotta mod the board?

it’s called interlacing; both windows and gnu/linux support it natively. Just turn it on in the OS through the display adapter settings or the console and the monitor will automatically be switched to double its refresh rate but you get those old school scanlines

Man, those stalker games are great. Played through the first two, now on the last one before the new one comes out in December.

2023 was a very productive year.
Finally played through Prey and the Half life expansions.
Got to finish all of the Stalker games before the new game comes out.
Completed RE1 on original hardware.

Over the past three years, I've beaten over 200 games in an ongoing effort to crush my backlog. This year, I'm gonna try to slow things down considerably in the interest of enjoying other things about life. I'll still be gaming—my soul is currently owned by Street Fighter 6—but I'd expect the number of games I finish in 2024 to be considerably smaller than previous years this decade. Nier Automata, Silent Hill 2, Outer Wilds, Devil May Cry 3, and the rest of the Metal Gear Solid franchise are some things I'm planning on finishing this year. Currently enjoying a playthrough of Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

Witcher 1 was something.

The combat is glitchy at times and pretty boring, the writing is... mixed, great locations, unexpected nudity, slow walking speed, great variety of characters and enemies.
Its almost in the territory of "How did this get a sequel?"
Will move onto the second game later this year. Now its onto Unreal.
