    It works now. It definitely didn’t before when using Sync for Lemmy. That kind of mistake wouldn’t have worked on the reddit website either. I had seen it a million times. Not sure if the Lemmy web site would handle it right.

    Both versions work on my end.

    I’m surprised to hear that.

    Markdown libraries normally see the closing parenthesis in the URL as the end of the link markdown syntax of [text](link). You had [text](link(stuff)) which is parsed as [text](link(stuff) A smarter markdown parser could handle it, so whatever app you were using might do that.

    Here’s the article. Their cookie policy is shit, so fuck 'em.

    Hell, just go to the game’s page: https://www.woodus.com/den/resources/dq+nightfly.php

    Enix’s Dragon Quest is one of the most important JRPGs ever made and can be credited (alongside Final Fantasy) with turning the genre into the huge commercial proposition it is in Japan today.

    However, given that the game’s Western release – under the title Dragon Warrior – wasn’t quite as acclaimed in the US, there’s a good chance that some of you reading this haven’t actually experienced the first game in the franchise.

    Before running to Square Enix’s official ‘remaster’ of the game on your Switch, you might want to check out Dragon Quest +, a fan-made remake from NightFly Studio. Described as a “full remake” for PC containing around six to eight hours of additional content, it has been in development for over a decade and finally got a full release late last year.

    Dragon Quest + features remixed monsters, new weapons and armour, an orchestrated soundtrack, new locations inspired by Dragon Quest Monsters and Dragon Quest Monsters 2, new mini-dungeons in Alefgard and three fresh minigames.

    It’s free to download but is only compatible with Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 Pro, Windows 10 and Windows 11. It’s also playable on Steam Deck, although there appear to be some issues which are still being ironed out.

    • (W)INE (I)s (N)ot an (E)mulator. It’s not a virtual environment either. It’s just a compatibility layer that wires up calls to Windows libraries to their Linux counterparts. Proton is an enhanced fork of WINE.
    • Sleep mode is just… sleep mode, and consumes 10% of your battery per day.
    • DosBox runs on Windows, too.
    • The Steam Deck is a weak ass PC. I love mine, but it does not compare to a modest gaming PC.

    I haven’t gamed on Windows since buying my Deck, but you’re testimonial here isn’t very convincing. It’s a portable gaming device that requires a dock (or hub) to even play on a monitor. It’s underpowered by design. Not even all top Steam games run on it.

    I’ll fix your list for you. It doesn’t have any line breaks, and it has some typos.

    • Mike Tyson punches out Mega Man
    • Series-Mega
      • Man, 2 has the most banger soundtrack!
    • R-Type: Alpha
    • Mission RC Pro
    • I’m Ironman Ivan Stewarts
    • Off-road Super Sprint Double
    • Dragon Kung Fu /s

    If you want markdown to preserve new lines you have to add two spaces at the end of each line before hitting Enter. Or just make a bulleted list, which is actually better in this case.

    • Mike Tyson’s punch out
    • Mega Man series- Mega Man 2 has the most banger soundtrack.
    • R-Type
    • Alpha mission
    • RC Pro Am
    • Ironman Ivan Stewart’s Off-road
    • Super sprint
    • Double Dragon
    • Kung Fu
