This is dystopian, if true. This type of data should be kept private, on the console itself, for the use of the user only.

The Logitech F310 (wired) and F710 (wireless) are ok. The F710 has a big 2xAA battery compartment which is uncomfortable for some.

Save your receipt, because Logitech’s warranty is better than their construction. I destroyed my first F710’s control pad on my second play of Crosscode, but they sent me a new one.

Do not use either one to operate a manned submarine.

While this may look like a good reason not to use the service, I learned of an even better reason just now from this article:

At the start of next year, GeForce Now will roll out a 100-hour monthly playtime allowance to continue providing exceptional quality and speed – as well as shorter queue times – for Performance and Ultimate members

Apparently you have to wait in line?!

Disco Elysium

I acknowledge that it was well received, but it was from 2019.

Elder Scrolls 6 will no doubt be polarizing, with some calling it the game of the decade, and others saying that the TES formula just doesn’t work anymore. (The game might also just suck.)

Beta testers should get a discount, or even get paid, in exchange for writing good bug reports. These people are fools for paying extra for earlier access to a bug fest.

I would never pre-order a game. That just makes it harder to refund it if it sucks.

This is condescending and completely unhelpful.

No, it’s not dead. The number of players is irrelevant.

A “dead game” is a game that needs work but is not under any development. It could be in Early Access, and incomplete. Or, it could be released, but still incomplete (looking at you, 7 Days to Die). Or, it could be an MMO that needs ongoing server maintenance, but they shut the servers down.

A game that is being worked on and making good progress isn’t dead. A game that is complete and relatively bug-free, but not being worked on, is not dead. An MMO getting no new content, but just enough labor to keep the lights on and the servers up, is not dead.

I guess an MMO or multiplayer game that has mandatory multiplayer aspects could be considered Dead if there aren’t enough players available to reasonably play the game. But Palworld is a single player game, or co-op with friends, not really an MMO.

This looks like the kind of game I’d love to play, if it wasn’t Windows-only.

I thought the trailer music was kinda funny, a bit too dramatic for the gameplay which looked more technical.
