Don’t have the energy to play myself. But started watching a Let’s Play today and I really love the premise.

Click here for the NDA.

Sometimes they still look at a petition even if it didn’t reach the threshold. At least that has been the case for German petitions.

In the end they still get ignored, whether they reached the threshold or not.

We’ve known since the 2010s that brown equals realism.

Yeah. Sometimes we’re lucky and get a leak of the cancelled game. Happened with the War Craft adventure game. It was almost finished. And it was really mid. Maybe up to today’s Blizzard standards but not back then.

So feared that everyone is using it. I think the Chinese are just more honest.

The last patch with new content. Bugfixes will still follow.

Nice!

With all the hidden content available in the game I’d say 100%ing it is almost impossible. Sure, not everything is accompanied by a nice “ding”. But I bet if you play completely different you should be able to find lots of new stuff.

Maybe try to get every inspiration for every background.

I really wish they would have released fixes more often with smaller patches. It’s always fascinating to find out what new bugs appear in the game and which regression they failed again to address.

People will buy the Switch 2 and its games despite the high price because of the exclusive Nintendo games you can only play on that console.

Or almost every other language besides English.

Betteridge wins again.

Handhelds are a niche in PC gaming. Especially in the whole gaming market.

Now the question is, do they use Yuzu or Ryujinx?

Now that I think about it, the marvellous thing about BG3 isn’t just the acting of the main characters but of the minor NPCs as well. It shows an unprecedented attention to detail and love and care.

I think the only “bad” acting I encountered in the game was that one kid who was apparently voiced by one of the staff’s kids. And that’s only because the model looked too old, for which I suspect that the kid chose their own model.

At least Silent Hill 2 was great as well. Lae’zel’s actress Devora Wilde actually did some mocap for it. She did some Maria and some of the monsters.

She’s streaming her own playthrough on Twitch. It’s hilarious and painful. BG3 was the first video game she’s ever played since the Sims back then.

But yeah, they really upped the game. And apparently they got Liv Tyler interested in doing games as well.

We’re really living through the time gaming is growing up.

That would be great. It would mean a ton of lost revenue and bad publicity for Denuvo.

“We have patented the concept of playing and will now sue every company that makes toys or games.”

It’s the integration into the Steam interface. So you could manage all your games through one interface.

It could have compatibility with everything in Steam, including achievements. But as long as it’s closed source I won’t touch it.

A common theme I have seen with her is reporting about a new paper about an older hypothesis. Then saying stuff like “this has been known since 2007, and still [field]-scientists are ignoring it, why?” But when you watch a scientist’s video who actually is from that field they will also mention the older papers and go on to list a myriad of reasons why it hasn’t been accepted yet.

Diablo and Diablo 2 (not Resurrected)

I think Diablo 2 even came with an extra disc specifically so you could give it to your friend to play via LAN. Then these fuckers removed the option in Resurrected even though they promised they wouldn’t.

StarCraft and the old Warcraft games work via LAN as well.

Quake, Doom, Unreal (Tournament), Half Life

So you’re saying I should register p5re.jp?

Super Mario World on the SNES. That game is just great. I love playing it every so often.

I find it even more strange that they couldn’t get the Xbox interface onto mainline Windows to make it more controller friendly.

Yeah, but by now I can’t even enjoy them without being reminded that they take place in the same universe as the rest. It just feels pointless.

I’ll rather keep my head canon in Legends the EU. Kyle Katarn stole the Death Star plans and Ben is Luke’s son.

I just have no interest in a Disney-ified KOTOR whatsoever.

Could maybe run Doom scaled down.

The funniest thing about it is that they did make the anticheat Linux compatible. They just refuse to activate it for Fortnite.

With LinkSheet you should be able to change what app is opened when the URL of your bank is requested.

Gemma ballz.

Does he even have the rights? I bet they are with Wizards of the Coast.

The flak cannon from Unreal. It’s just a more fun and innovative type of shotgun with grenade launcher.

I was so blown away by that installer. I was used to having to set up my soundcard for every game and often encountering problems with that. Hearing the frickin’ installer talking to me without any setup was like magic.

Doom was also born out of D&D sessions. And the What genre is Doom? video argues pretty well for RPG.

Almost every game nowadays has some kind of story. Pure abstract games like Tetris, however long lasting and multigenerational they are, are the vast minority. Even in something like Pong you play the role of a tennis player.

So, yeah, almost every game is an RPG.

As far as I’m aware (I only played one Silent Hill, Shattered Memories) the series really took off with Silent Hill 2.

I mean, Activision could just lie. I wouldn’t put it past them. And if they get found out blame it on some fall guy.

That was a playable teaser. It was awful. They wanted to gauge interest in a full game. This new demo is for the real game. It looks and plays totally different. It’s still a bit clunky but much better than the playable teaser.

It’s the same demo they have shown to press and others on conventions the past few years. So you might already have seen some scenes from it. They keep updating it. Last time I saw it it didn’t even have a save system.

I’m anxiously waiting for the Gothic Remake demo. I hope my Steam Deck and me are up to the task.

Don’t bother with the latest game in the series Double Exposure. It plays like a lazy cheap cash grab.

But the same devs as the original also recently released Lost Records: Bloom & Rage that’s supposed to be good. It’s similar but not officially part of the series due to rights issues.

Same with Tell Me Why, which is free every pride month. Personally I found it to be boring but others seem to like it.
