I enjoy pvp games that I’m talented at. If I’m not good at something I tend to get down when I keep losing. Pvp is just really hard and bottles that feeling of helplessness.

Hi-Rez try to make a correct management decision challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

Oof, Dead Money is either love it or hate it, good luck

They’ve been making variations on the same game for over a decade, I totally believe them when they say that a tool used to regurgitate existing content is something important to their business.

I remember being pissed when I got shitty cards from a YuGiOh booster pack when I was a kid, never bought new packs again. Only got stuff if I knew its value first. The fact that kids these days are actually falling prey to these systems shows how much more advanced and predatory they are.

Surely it’s not due to the increased accessibility of good video games and the decreased accessibility of good movies. Young people bad, have tiktok brain.

He’s in Multiversus now so the awareness for gamers is probably at an all-time high

They’re using a trusted formula that has worked since Far Cry 3 from 12 years ago. It’s fun but it’s not going to turn a lot of heads. Many just wish they would try something different.

My experience playing it so far has been pretty overwhelmingly positive. No one really cares who wins, it’s more fun to just make cool plays and do well individually.

Valve has the resources and incentive to take years and years making something fun with no worry about profitability. Steam is their product, the games Valve releases on Steam are just reasons to spend money on their platform.

Didn’t even think about that because I live in America and mostly tour around rural areas with no public transportation lol

Been doing that, unfortunately I live in a big city so it’s a bit of an infinite treadmill. I like to just mark parking lots since no one seems to do those ever and they’re changing pretty frequently.

Organic maps is better than Google maps for about everything besides finding businesses. If you’re traveling long distances for landmark tourism especially, it’s just objectively better IMO.

A faster refresh rate also means the image on screen is more up-to-date with what the computer is actually processing. Basically, it doesn’t matter if the difference is perceptible in terms of image smoothness because the gap between your inputs and the response of the screen narrows significantly.

I mean, if my game mods were to be made into full titles, I for sure would be selling the rights to Valve if I had a choice. Dota also started as a mod and it still receives love from Valve 11 years on.

I’m so glad The Last of Us exists to show people that not all video game adaptations have to be this bad.

I know this is an older article, but EAC has had compatibility with Linux for years at this point. Linux is also really easy to compile and develop for compared to MacOS. They just don’t want to because there aren’t enough players to justify the cost, most likely. Also might have some incentive to keep their game off the hardware of their biggest competitor.

I would try using Lynx launcher and adding a full-screen widget for news if you want something more feature-rich.

Minecraft is the most popular video game to ever exist in human history and someone thinks that is an easy market to capitalize on.

For me it’s:

• Strategy games are extremely meta-focused
• You always feel like you’re playing sub-optimally if you don’t know the exact right move
• They typically require a lot of time and energy that I just don’t have
• They require long, focused sessions that could be better spent doing anything else
• No one I know is playing them so it sucks as a social activity
• They have less “high moments” compared to other games

Could never get into strategy games except for mobile ones that I would play on long road trips or something.

I’ve only really played New Vegas extensively, but I think the biggest thing to remember is that when you’re familiar with these western-style RPGs, they seem like they have a bottomless well of content because you know how and where to find quests and such. When these games are new, you have to find content for the first time, and if you’re not sure where to look then it becomes frustrating and boring.

New Vegas is better at this than most fallout games because once you have a quest it often leads to a sequence of other quests. in FO3, half the game is just finding stuff to do. Never played 4 or 76. No one plays FO1 or FO2 anymore but they sometimes suffer from similar issues, especially FO1.

Build variety in these games comes more from the perks, skill pts, and SPECIAL stats you choose. They’re not quite as visual as the different classes in Skyrim, but they certainly do much different things.

I tried KF2 for a while and really couldn’t get into it. The game just lacks replayability in my opinion. Trying different perks, maps, difficulties, etc. really didn’t resonate with me because I felt like I was doing basically the same thing, just kiting around enemies in a predictable loop. There was a serious absence of memorable moments, unlike with other horde shooters like l4d and even b4b. Sunk a few dozen hours into it and it kinda feels like a waste in hindsight, never really enjoyed it and spent the whole time trying to.

DbD is my jam recently. Spirit is just too fun to play with all the mindgames you can do.

It really is crazy how much the cultural landscape of games has evolved over the past decade or so. I’ll just be here playing classic singleplayer games until I’m old and gray like a boomer lol.

Better idea: Get them a ton of classics from the Steam sale, put them on a fresh acct, and then give them hundreds of hours of good shit for like $50. You could get 5 copies of Undertale for the equivalent price of 1 Fortnite skin.

Reading the description it sounds more like it’s just basic stuff like kill, gather, or deliver X things at Y location. Maybe it will get better in the future or people will make add-ons for it or something.

I totally played this for a day as a kid, I think you just unlocked a core memory for me.

Cruelty Squad is that game for me, though it’s recently gotten a huge surge in popularity after a big Youtuber released a vid on it last week that already has 3.7 million views. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s not photosensitive.

They can get more features like categorizing and organizing your passwords, but it’s just not worth it imo. I wouldn’t use those features anyways. I used to use Bitwarden but I switched to FF because it’s just easier and works seamlessly.

I personally use Firefox’s built-in password manager and it works great for me. I use Relay to generate email masks and enter in random passwords that are saved and synced across my devices. It’s been very helpful!
