Riding netsplits, slapping people with trouts, those were the days…


4chan was definitely around in 2008 but it was a lot more crazy random eclectic message board and a lot less nazi pedo bar. There were still shitty people there but it wasn’t the norm.


Doing nefarious things on the Internet is probably not much younger than the Internet. That take sounds like something someone who wasn’t around in the 90s would say. I still remember the Ping of Death, people abusing netsplits on IRC, scams, identity theft, fraud, etc. - this is not exactly a new thing and even predates the web.


Borderlands 4 and the Switch 2: Two things I wouldn’t piss on if they were on fire.




Haven’t played yet, I bought copies for me and a family member to play online after they told me about it.

Update: Online co-op. it does not appear to have local multiplayer.





Other hobbies lke hiking, biking, etc. but if your only concern is cost, why not get an old computer for super cheap, put Linux on it, and play games thay don’t need high end specs?


Maybe it’s because all the good games are indie games that cost a fraction of the batshit insane prices these shady corpo outfits are pushing?



The worst thing about it is that there isn’t more.


Portal/Portal 2

Deus Ex (the original)

Minecraft

Stardew Valley

Terraria

Mirror’s Edge

Chrono Trigger

Cyberpunk 2077

Hades

Subnautica

A Short Hike

If you mean Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo, IMO, Nintendo is the worst of them when it comes to stuff like this. You don’t see Microsoft crushing little enthusiast developers and modders (in fact, the Skyblivion team was sent free copies of the Oblivion remaster and has received lots of support and encouragement, as have many other modders).

If someone did that with Pokemon or Zelda at it got as much coverage as Skyblivion, Nintendo would squash them under a bunch of lawyers. That said, IMO, all consoles kind of suck, and PC is a lot fairer to consumers. Steam Deck is like, “You want to run an emulator? A whole new OS? Anything you say King. I love you.”


Shame, guess I’ll never buy anything from them ever again. Bricking the device I own is fucked, it’s none of your business what I do or don’t do with it.

The Steam Deck is superior in every regard anyways.


I’ve been playing the shit out of Children of Morta. I think it was $20, max. There are more indie games that are more fun to play and cost a fraction of the price than there are AAA games that are actually really good and not just generic slop that exists solely to try and make more money.


They don’t cost $80 if I don’t buy them. There are plenty of great games coming out regularly that cost way less (and there’s a good chance they’re also better games).







I didn’t come up with the name, that’s just what people have been calling it for as long as I can remember.




Shame, I’m never buying a game from the Epic Store.

Oh well.





Hotswappable batteries and an option for a keyboard would be nice too. Virtual keyboards seem like they’re getting shittier (at least on Android) and they never matched the accuracy of a regular keyboard.






Maybe we’ll find out more details later but we don’t know anything for sure yet. Publishers doing shady stuff wouldn’t surprise me one bit, but I’ve heard of devs doing sketchy stuff too.


*claiming to not know anything

Another post above said they may have been faking reviews, if so, they would almost certainly play dumb when caught.



Yoshi’s Crafted World is pretty ideal for a young kid, there’s a special mode for young kids too where you basically can’t fail.
