I still haven’t finished Witcher 3 :/

Minecraft.

Firefox is absolutely horrendous on mobile. A lot of websites don’t render properly, or when scrolling everything jumps around. Browsing Facebook is especially bad. Also UX is a lot worse than competing browsers.

At least Samsung phones are only bloated with Samsung apps, which in most part you can uninstall or disable. Although it’s still fucking stupid that when you buy a new phone you need to do a lot of maintenance just to make your phone work as it should, and not slow down because of shitty apps.

You don’t need to play new games to have fun though.

I’ve just finished playing Half-Life (or in fact, the fan-made remake Black Mesa), and Half-Life: Uplink (the demo version that was released after the final game, and it consisted of a short non-canon scenario that’s not included in the final game, but lately was included in the 25th anniversary version).

I will be playing HL: Opposing Force and Blue Shift next. And in general I am planning to fish every Half-Life game this month (except Alyx since I don’t have good enough hardware for me to enjoy it, and playing it on GTX 1060 3GB is not enjoyable at all), and if it goes well Portal games as well.

Absolutely nothing, like in the past like 5 years.

Currently (re)playing all Half-Life and Portal games in order they were released.

Technology is incredible!

~Random NPC in Pallet Town in Pokémon Red/Blue

There’s a new flight simulator? Shit, I still haven’t played the one I bought like a year or two ago.

It’s a huge deal for hardcore fans, but I am overall against these practices, since they are just illegal, period.

There are a lot of fangames that contain regions and their Pokemon from original games, with some enhancements. You could try these.

That’s probably something a person who has no clue about Pokemon could say. You underestimate how many mechanics older games contain, since like half of them are not obvious for casual players. Although I am not sure about gens newer than IV (Diamond and Pearl is the most recent I’ve played), since I haven’t played them. But most people agree that the best games were around that period (Gen IV, or V), and they only become worse over the years.

To be honest I really think that an AI surprising human brain in many ways is a matter of time, but what people don’t tend to talk about is whether or not we are slowly approaching the limit what we can do with technology, because I already see tech progress slowing down in some areas.

Mouse and keyboard, optionally a Xbox Controller or similar.

But my least liked one? Probably any PlayStation one, I hate them all.

What about the original Game Boy? I am pretty sure it lasted nearly a decade.

While I don’t really like to play newer Doom games (still would rather play original Doom or Doom 2), they really look great and metal as fuck.

I think that’s what we expected? I don’t think anything else would make sense. Although I miss small handhelds like GBA or 3DS.

Oh it looks like your PC is not supported because you turned off single option in UEFI. Go to this link and buy your new Windows 11 PC today!

Original Xbox had custom OS. It run on something similar to Windows 2000 (NT 5) kernel though.

Plot twist: It will be a PC with 486DX2-compatible CPU.

Dunno. I like both old and new games.

Missing Euro Truck Similator 2 Map DLC’s :)

I don’t think I ever seen an Android app launching Chrome if it’s not a default browser. Are you sure they are not launching built-in WebView?

I mean, they look nothing like RL people, but still there is some progress.

In no particular order:

• Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
• Minecraft
• Gothic II (or The Chronicles of Myrtana: Archolos, but that’s a mod)

With honorable mentions (also in no particular order):

• Portal 2
• Heroes of Might and Magic III
• Pokémon Platinum (Previously I would put Emerald Version, but I’ve recently started to play Platinum and it’s best one yet, didn’t touch later ones though).
• Far Cry 3 (and Blood Dragon)
• The Witcher 2 (Haven’t finished TW3 yet)

Finished first Quake recently (EXCELLENT game, still very much playable even after nearly 3 decades, definitely 9/10), and currently playing Perdition’s Gate, it is kinda unofficial Doom 2 expansion released in 1996, and it had chance to be included in Final Doom (which are two additional official episodes for Doom 2), but ultimately it was decided against it.

Perdition’s Gate is kinda interesting as it has some unique elements and I genuinely enjoyed it even though there are probably much better Mega WADs nowadays, later maps are too short though, and it looks like they have made them only to accomplish 32 maps total like in the original game. Secret maps are also… odd… definitely not bad, but… just odd (and disappointing to some extent I guess), although I am not going to spoil them for you. Also the locations for secrets are also weird.

Interesting and odd is I think the best description for this Expansion/WAD.

You are not wrong though, they will do the same for the next release of Skyrim.

In 2050, when Bethesda releases TES 7, it will be just a launcher to Creation Engine editor with half-assed models and a single empty map where modders collaborate to make the game themselves.

In 2127 with the early-access TES 8 it will be just a README file where they say that game should be ready for Christmas of 21XX, if modders won’t fuck around and finish making the damn engine.

I have added the Baldur’s Gate series to my backlog, I will probably play these in 10-15 years, wish me luck.

The only step up is a full on fascist country like China or russia.

You are confusing fascism with imperialism. Netiher China or Russia is fascist state despite of what some shitty non-scientific sources say. However it’s not hard to see increase of fascist movement in Russia (which could become a huge problem in post war Russia no matter the result of the war), but also in some other European states or even USA (Republicans come to mind).
