Cataclysm dark days ahead




I managed to complete disco elysium in under 25hrs if your up for the challenge you can try and beat my record



Epic games store is honestly quite decent m8 I’ve been using it since 2020. Some of the good things I’ve noticed on epic games is

  • free games

  • alot of the sales for games can be cheaper than steam sales

It’s hardly no different to steam gog or any other game launched out there although it lacks official linux support which is a negative in my books when it comes to privacy I’ll argue they’re both as bad as each other if you think your being smart by avoiding epic games because it’s owned by tencent and your concerned for your privacy then you should stop using steam ubisoft ea gog and the many other launchers as well they’re both as invasive when it comes to your privacy as the other plus hear me out… YOUR NOT THAT IMPORTANT I’m not sure the feds are coming after a 32 year old IT tech support worker because he said wrongthink on a tiny social media network

If your still super paranoid first uninstall all your game launchers then maybe pirate and look into foss alternatives or try GOG out you can install games on the Web without a launcher and the games don’t have invasive drm


I wonder if people might start making there own drivers for these amazing vr headsets


Yeah used it before not the best to say the least m8. I tried to play celeste and couldn’t even get past the intro although when heroic does work it works wonders


I honestly well and truly loved gta Iv’s online. Keep it simple I say



Prehaps an ayn loki zero might be up your valley as its a full fledged budget steamdeck type pc for the same price as a ps portal this might be perfect for you as you could have playstations desktop streaming app installed and some desktop games that’ll run on the meager loki zeros hardware I hear it does a good job emulating games upto ps2 games

Or of course a full fledged steamdeck


Same here og 2020 stadia user here although I wouldn’t necessarily call cloud gaming ideal

pc gaming is the way to go nowadays with Cheap games on steam and free games on epic games sometimes on gog plus playing online is free and nowadays you can build yourself a very cheap rx 480/570 miners are trying get rid of there stock i5 4450/i7 3770 pc for very cheaply pair that with a 60gb ssd and above for a boot drive and a 1tb hdd and your gaming


Honestly this is an awesome update shame they didn’t implement real time shadows like nvidia did with quake 2 as that’ll go hand in hand with the new steamdeck




I’ve sunken my teef into disco elysium great game having hella a Time


Sounds interesting I loved older fortnite I joined in season 9 before a little before the big concerts and stuff I remember getting quite tired of the game with all its bloat soon after season 2 episode 2 and not touching it since then


A device having Windows is a deal breaker? seems like an odd requirement to have set in stone couldn’t you plug in a USB stick with linux loaded on and install your linux distribution of choice onto these gadgets


Windows ce looks like an interesting operating system being ran on almost anything I’m pretty sure they ran this on some cad infotainment systems


Project zomboid might quench that thirst with its farming foraging and fishing mechanics it’s a really good game I’ve put 860 hours into it myself since buying it in late 2018


THE BIG THREE

  • project zomboid
  • barotrumua
  • beamng. drive

Depends an rtx 2060 costs around £120 nowadays pair this with a cheap sandy bridge ivy bridge quadcore 8gb of ram or 16 if your feeling fancy and a 256gb ssd and 1tb hdd and you got yourself a decent computer


$250 can land you one hell of a budget gaming pc pair this with copious amounts of free games from the epic game launcher and no paying for subscriptions and you’ll be saving alot in the long run


Yep exactly this I’m using an i7 3770 and 10gb ddr3 In my own rig I intend on buying a rx 560 for it as an upgrade for my current gpu


Yep a couple of times never completed the campaign tho I’ve gotten 600hrs in the game I tend to troll around and dabble in some griefing I mainly play on mutitplayer servers


Depends if you do your research and look for the right deals both used and new you could get an decent pc built with around the same performance as current gen consoles for less than used current gen xbox series x also you don’t have to pay up the ass for online subscriptions fees generally it’s upto you and your personal preferences though some people prefer consoles and some people people prefer pcs

Generally though in my experience computers are always cheaper in the long term and get better support as well not having to pay for online and having storefronts such as gog and epic games which give out free games makes pcs a hell of alot worth it to me


Barotruma for the honkmother the honkening shall continue



I think most people are more than aware of climate change and climate change issue



That’s a more ideal way of doing targeting big businesses and fossil fuel execs through peaceful forms of protesting a good example of this is how some people in London and Glasglow are protesting ULEZ by vandalising ULEZ cameras if your going protest make sure it doesn’t affect anyone in the general public


plenty of protests have happened through history. Some have been more successful than examples being Marton Luther Kings rallies woman suffrage movements the salt march singing revolution plus with the world of the Internet if you make a large enough rucus you’ll have eyes and ears on you from across the world



I can see why the game is really good I got the game on my phone and tend to play it every so often its really fun I tend to have a whale of a time


But disrupting a major event/traffic or attempting to destroy a priced piece of art with soup out of all things makes you and your organisation look like a massive pile of shit there are way way way better ways of protesting such as picketing as you said or rallys if you bring enough people say 200 or 300 you’ll appear on the social media and prehaps local and regional news prehaps if you make a large enough splash you might sway the general public to your cause


Well There’s plenty of ways of protesting and getting the word out that don’t involve getting in the way or destroying/nicking property you can have peaceful demonstrations ideally populated like a city square where you and a massive crowd of people gather and make your voices heard im fairly certain that’s called a rally or you use art as a way of protesting graffiti etc you can also boycott a organisation or government institution and you can do a picket protest as well


There’s plastic in literally everything welcome to the modern world


No don’t if your going protest do it right your not sending a message by disrupting someone’s nice day out your just going be a nuisance plus why a gaming convention what the fuck does a gaming convention have to do with the environment


I would head to cabins outside muldruagh and survive on foraging and look the nearby dixie trailerpark



I’m a muffifed immortal redneck shooting eypgetican creatures sounds good to me at least my teeth isn’t all crooked wait do rednecks have good dental care?
