People clearly realize that these algorithms are suppressing dissidents and freedom of speech. Why do they continue to subject themselves to these hacky workarounds and self-censorship?


I was surprised that the church sequence doesn’t kill you. I only got shot once in the Whirling-In-Rags.


I also thought that the character to the right was only wearing underwear. The lighting in that image makes the skin and shirt colors seem identical. For all of the crap going down at the moment, this seems to only be a simple mistake.


Somehow, they’re forgetting that sex sells like hot cakes. They’re also not passing up the opportunity to marginalize minorities even further!


-Find pirating site (I don’t really know any lol)
-Download Linux executable (FTL.x86_64)
-Maybe find a way to somehow sandbox it in case that it contains malware
-Enjoy!


You can pirate 'em if you’re that short on cash. Most of them don’t cost too much more than €20. 0 AD is entirely free, along with all of the Super Tux games.


FTL is great. It’ll probably run on a toaster. I’ve also heard that it has a bajillion great mods to play if you get tired of the base game


You’re right, but I thought that it was one of those visual novels because I had to have a dictionary at hand to understand half of the words.


It’s the only visual novel I’ve ever played, but it excels so much at it. The writing, worldbuilding, characters, narrator, and overall “vibe” are fantastically superb. It’s also another one of those games that I can’t help but play for ~5 hours nearly every day until I finish it. I’m no video game connoisseur, so you can find more sophisticated reviews elsewhere. You can pick it up on GOG for like €10 half of the time.


Disco Elysium. I don’t think that I need to explain why.


In short:

The complaint accuses the initiative of “systemic concealment of major contribution,” violating EU stipulations requiring citizens to report any sponsor contributions over €500.

The complaint cites PC Gamer’s interview with Scott from June, in which he said “there have been many weeks on the campaign where I’ve been working 12 to 14 hours a day to keep things moving to get signatures.” That promotional work, the complaint argues, amounts to “€63,000-147,000 in professional contribution” if he’d charged a “market rate” of “€50-75/hour.”

It’s also not how the EU’s disclosure requirements work. As Scott notes in the video, the EU’s citizens’ initiative rules say that “individuals providing non-financial support, such as volunteering, are not considered sponsors under the ECI Regulation and do not need to be reported.”

If the petition heads to the Commission after its petition deadline on July 31, we can expect to see even more exciting rhetorical maneuvers.

I sure hope that the EU can withstand these 4D chess 900 IQ rhetorical maneuvers.



And from what I’ve heard, they can ONLY impact it negatively.


It’s hard not to like them. Shooting down enemies is not a slog and you don’t get sniped it 1 shot, dying is not as bad because you can just jet back to the action in 5 seconds anyways, and who could possibly hate piloting an X-Wing with the intuitive controls?


I just started playing. The normal shooter PvP was also not my favorite, but do you really think the same of the space battles? I love it a lot.



Do you have a graphics card? Your BIOS might not be able to use it, try plugging your display cable into the side of your motherboard.


I remember them being the characters that you play as in the Hitman Co-op Sniper Assassin mode.


Yeah, I’m also of the opinion that Fallout 4 lacks that spark that makes a good game. It’s got all of these fancy environments, characters, mechanics, and graphics (for the time), yet it just doesn’t seem to all come together for me. Skyrim, while being a little tedious at times, actually feels like something you would really want to play to the end and then some. Fallout 4, however, isn’t much more in my eyes than a mishmash of vaguely game-adjacent concepts that barely appear to fit together.


I would be able to give you feedback if you provide us all with a link.


It’s not like the game can’t launch without a newish GPU, it’ll just run like ass.



When Dr. Breen captures you in the citadel, he (implicitly) admits that it was the G-man who convinced him to let the anti-mass spectrometer cause the resonance cascade. The G-man arranged for the company, and the rest of Earth, to be destroyed.



This reminds me of something that one of the other developers said while commentating a Half Life 2 speedrun: “When the main villain in the story looks like your high school principal, you know it was made by old people.”


Do the chuds really want every single protagonist to be a reincarnation of Chad Thaddeus Bradley?


Neat! I got the game two months ago, and I’m having a lot of fun! I learned of it from the “OG” DRG, which I’ve had for a lot longer (and played much, MUCH more), but it’s great when I just want a fun, quick and simple game to play. I’m still dumbfounded how this game rips off most of its assets, mechanics and even weapons from its predecessor and STILL be completely different, while also actually being fun!


Hollow Knight has also had me a little stuck sometimes, just remember to check your map to see if there’s sometime you might be able to reach. I had to look up locations to get the other ending.


I remember the Vortigaunts sidestepping your shotgun blasts on Black Mesa.


When I played Half Life 1 for the first time, I almost immediately lost interest after getting to Xen. When I played Black Mesa, I almost cried when I got there. Best fan-made remake I’ve ever played!


At this moment, any teaching or glamorisation of simulated gambling automatically leads to a PEGI 18 rating," the ratings board stated

Who’s the clown now?


Coincidentally, my relative and my sibling have also just started playing Halo Reach. They were also a big fan of it when it released!


I think higher prices are only applauded when they also raise the profit margins. If someone figures out how to circumvent the tarriffs while staying competitive, everyone else is screwed.



I do agree that some of the complaints were rather overdone, such as his headset. But the giant gaming candle with its own assistant warrants the general disgust.


I personally enjoy the PLANNED testicular detonations a lot more!


If you are a fan of extremely fast-paced and frantic combat, you should try ULTRAKILL.


Damn! What a bummer. I was actually considering buying their Beyond if they introduced eye tracking to it. I’ll probably make a burner email and stick that into an Apple store if they don’t fix their rather ridiculous iPhone requirements. Thanks for sharing!


Deep Rock Galactic has, in my personal experience, the best battle pass system of them all. Every season’s pass is free, because the game costs €40 upfront, they never expire and you can switch to any other season that has ever been while maintaining progress on your current one. All of the paid cosmetics are also Steam DLC that you can buy whenever, forever. Firstly, this is great because the game never tries to pressure you to play the game by slapping a timer on any and all rewards. Secondly, by allowing players to play every single battle pass, the game now contains multiple times the content that it could ever have in one season. This way, the players can enjoy ever more content while the developers don’t need to create more of it at a fast pace. I just finished season 5: Drilling Deeper and instead of having to wait however long it takes for the developers to add more progression to the game, I just turn the knob to season 2!


I’ve never heard of “dwarf” before. Is Deep Rock Galactic part of it?
