I used to have all 50 capital cities memorized from Carmen Sandiego, Broderbund was the goat.

I watched some videos of ET:QW and it looked really dated and I lost interest haha. I bet having nostalgia for this is probably required. I still really want to play gunman chronicles, I can hang with a Half Life engine game!

Good article, I just wish it would say why the game still isn’t available. I never played this game but went down a little rabbit hole looking for it and ET: Quake Wars and it’s insane the hoops you have to jump through to play these games that used to sell. I still hope to jump through those hoops one day and try it out.

wtf I didn’t know Jubert and Prunty were on this joint! Hopefully the remaining team will make Natural Selection 3…

Oh man this looks like the original NES Bubble Bobble which I loved! I even hear the same theme song! I hope this will be good because I can’t resist buying it!

Holy shit I just reinstalled, the new beta is great! For Linux players, make sure you force proton compatibility or else it’ll run the native Linux build which is not the beta. This beta has high FPS and properly locks the mouse into the window!

I’m avoiding it because it just doesn’t look that fun. I played the last 2 new dooms and they were good, for console shooters. More PC gamers should have higher standards than this. I don’t want a dumb story about medieval times, collecting dolls, linear maps, cyberdragon mounts, running from arena to arena and then starting repetitive wave fights. Just make a good shooter please!

I don’t like the Epic Game Store because Epic has turned it’s back on Linux. Their client doesn’t run on Linux which is where I do all my gaming. I also recognize the economic fuckery they’re doing to gain popularity. They’re spending their Fortnite war chest money on subsidizing games to give them away for the purpose of monopolizing their game store. It’s not fair for other game stores like GOG who can’t just buy game licenses for everyone to become popular.

I hate console gamers as they’ve perverted the FPS genre.

For others reading, Hulshult is also great! These other soundtracks aren’t as iconic as Doom but still absolute bangers.

I heard Mick Gordon was fucked over by Bethesda where they had someone else finish the music that Mick started. I wouldn’t be surprised if Mick wasn’t involved in this one. I’m not buying this Doom because it looks bad. Bethesda sucks.

This game looks so lame. Wake me up when the Doom franchise is no longer a Bethesda console shooter.

It’s the game that made me like these kinds of games. 1,300 hours :)

FTL: Faster Than Light

I made a rule that I can’t spend over $10 on a game until I’ve played through my entire backlog. I haven’t bought a game over $10 in 10 years and I’ve spent $6k on Steam since I started using it.

Woo $6k!

I’ve heard “reverse bullet hell”, it’s decent.

Rule 8? This has nothing to do with PC gaming. Glad he got banned though, fuck 'em.

Yeah exactly. I replaced my dead NUC with an Asus AMD mini PC. That replacement now has a 382 day uptime :)

Same, I grew up on Unreal and Epic sucks now so I don’t install their shit. They really shit on Linux while Valve has invested big time, so I don’t install epic game store. I don’t have a windows install anymore.

Starcraft, Starcraft 2 has ruined me with multi-building-selection, the clunkiness, no smart casting, selecting more than a handful of units at a time.

Hah that Konsole theme is sick as fuck, wp my dude!

Dude play Black Mesa! It’s a modern remake of the original Half Life but with a new and improved Xen at the end. I played Opposing Force and Blue Shift back in the day but barely remember them. I’d love to replay those games.

Edit: https://store.steampowered.com/app/362890/Black_Mesa/ It’s on sale for $5 right now. Also it runs decently in Linux, when I played it would crash every 20 minutes or so in some sections, I think there is/was a memory leak or something.

No, you’re not understanding it correctly. The issue is that kernel-level DRM is a terrible thing on Windows, the fact that it doesn’t work on Linux is also a side effect.

Brand protection partners is a much friendlier way to say bloodsucking lawyers.

AliExpress will somehow find a way to ship you a mat that doesn’t work after waiting 2 months for it to arrive.

Inscription! FTL faster than light! Dicey dungeons!

Eww extremely embarrassing that they used Windows.
