Brackets in a quote denote a change to what was actually said. In a perfect world, with quality journalism, they’re used to summarize or make the quote flow better in the piece without changing the intent or meaning of the quote

In this case, they very well could’ve changed “won’t be” to “will be”

I don’t expect that to be the case here, but it’s possible.

Also, using an ellipsis inside brackets like this: “[…]” Is an intentional omission by the author of the piece.


Ciri took the Trial of the Grasses in 3

What about that makes her not a “real Witcher”?


Lmao so

It’s a book series, their username is the name of the main antagonist of sorts…

Book 5, Wind and Truth, releases tomorrow, and this is akin to Infinity War/Endgame levels of “it’s all coming together”.

We’re all super excited haha


Bridge Four!

I hope your namesake gets what’s coming to him. The previews were an absolute wild ride.


Is your name a reference to Stormlight Archive’s Odium? If so, happy release day eve!




Oh to start OSRS blind again like I was a kid (just RS at the time)

Good luck with the new account!



Old School RuneScape is alive and well, we got a new boss yesterday, and we’ve been getting drip-fed content all year this year.


This is actually an insane take

Furries at large don’t care about the e2ee or security features

They care that:

  1. their friends are the platform

  2. custom stickers of their fursonas are easy to make and import

That’s basically it. Telegram has become entirely ubiquitous in the fandom. No one group/ideology claims it as their own.

Sincerely,

a progressive leftist furry who uses TG



Totally agreed

She just has some games she wants to play on it that don’t even have an entry on protondb (COD Black ops 4… I was shocked when I searched and couldn’t find it). So I’ll have to do some research.


We’ll see about that lol

She’s not at all the Linux person I am, so that might be a hard sell even if the software is bad

It’s definitely an option that I’ll keep in mind, though. I’ve tried Bazzite on my desktop and it seems like a really great project.


Ah fuck

The wife wants an Ally X for her birthday when they release them in a few days. Hopefully these issues are cleared up soon

(Believe me I tried steering her away from it but she likes the smaller form factor too much vs other offerings.)


Supergiant has the level of respect from me that early Blizzard had.

They have done nothing but release complete, solid games throughout their history. Everything in their library is at least an 8/10 and worth the money imo.

I have no reason to believe Hades 2 will be any different based on the tech test and the couple hours I played today.


Pyre was arguably a miss

But I see it as more of a red-headed-stepchild of their games.

It still has the trademark excellent writing and gameplay, but it didn’t sell well because it’s just a quirky game.

There was no market for a “wizard-basketball visual novel” (their words, not mine)


The tech test was already feeling really solid. New characters, more detailed art, continuation of the story from Hades 1 with a new big bad…

I’m a fan of Supergiant in general, so I’m really excited to get further into it.


There’s always Xcom - the shining example of what a mobile port could be.

I wish other companies would see that and go “yeah, that’s doable”

Instead, this crap happens.





Someone ported Infinity Blade 1 to PC (And it’s playable on Steam Deck!)
I've missed this series for a long time, and I'll never forgive Epic for dropping it like a baby giraffe. It plays pretty well on my gaming rig, but I'd love to hear about how it plays on lower-end systems. Maybe I'll install it on my 2-in-1 so I can use the touch screen.

Sounds like enough to pay all those workers they laid off


That would be a welcome surprise.

I only did a quick Google, so fair enough.


FYI

Prophecy Games Inc is a Hirez subsidiary.

Expect all the same shenanigans and monetization hell that comes with that. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if it’s not.
