Oh my, haven’t played Fallout Shelter in ages. I think I played until I hit the “pay or take ages” stage. I guess they removed that by now?

I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Current Blizzard wouldn’t have cancelled Ghost.

At least for me the email did come eventually. It was just 30 or 60 minutes late.

Hell yeah, I remember playing the demo of the first one dozens of times because of the great graphics. I never managed to get anything done.

Baldur’s Gate 3

I’m so glad he still does those even though they aren’t as popular as his usual stuff. Can’t wait for the cradle episode.

Weren’t they forced by the EU to allow non-Webkit browsers?

Although by now it’s probably to late. Making a app on another engine is basically a totally new project.

What I loved about Duke Nukem, especially in contrast to Doom, was the interactivity and that all the places actually looked like places. Doom’s levels just looked like video game levels. In Duke Nukem 3D you were in real cities with real shops. And the cinema worked, the billiard table worked, he’d comment when you tried to use the arcade machines, the toilets worked, electrical outlets gave you a shock, etc.

Isn’t Cachy a more general distribution?

But luckily everything they do is in the open and can be utilised by everyone.

They can’t stop winning.

There are 2-3 major roadblocks. Like others mentioned we simply lack drivers. But in my opinion the biggest issue is the lack of a BIOS equivalent for ARM systems.

Most PCs use x86 processors while most phones use ARM processors. And most x86 systems come with a BIOS (nowadays UEFI). That is a very simple operating system that runs when the computer starts and it gives a standard way for other operating systems like Windows and Linux to start up. That way the same x86 operating system can start on just about every x86 computer.

ARM lacks this standardisation. Although there do exist some projects to fix this they are not in use on most phones. So you actually have to make a custom way to just start up for each and every phone.

On top of that and the general lack of drivers many manufacturers lock their phones down so that only their own operating system may start.

I hope the Steam Frame controllers will be sold separately. They have replaceable batteries and you’re not forced to hold your hands in one position.

Somehow Price has returned.

My Nokia N900 with its paltry 128 MB RAM had better multitasking than a modern Android. It’s a farce.

As long as it’s not Thief 4.

Won’t they have to adjust the price hourly to account for RAM?

Edit: Apparently they will at least look at it: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/01/gog-plan-to-look-a-bit-closer-at-linux-through-2026/

As long as they don’t remove the coconut picture…

Strange, I distinctly remember it being a big deal that the Wii outsold the PS2 at some point.

I expedited 33 obscur clairs (damn, the new area is awesome), rescued some Yoshi eggs in Super Mario World and am now triggering all chronos I can find.

Don’t do that to me. Don’t make the OLED model so cheap that I will actually have to decide if I want to upgrade.

Those games made me want to get a real pogo stick. I still have it lying around somewhere.

Yay, I wanted to recommend Welonz as well. I especially loved her Silent Hill 2 playthrough. I found her through Baldur’s Gate 3.

I heard it’s likely we’re gonna see some KOTOR on there.

I very much don’t want some corporation to be able to just take a 9 year old’s drawing and slap it on their game because someone thought it wasn’t artsy enough to be awarded protection.

And those games usually got really really hard beyond the first episode, so we (at least me) wouldn’t have gotten far in the full games anyways.

Shareware was big back then. Chances are good that your copy was actually legal.

They’ve worked on anti cheat support before. It still depends on the devs actually activating that support. That will always be the case whatever they do.

OP, you would love the Steam Deck, or in a few months the Steam Machine. Or any other PC with Steam for that matter. With Steam Input you can rebind the controls of even the most stubborn game.

They ported it over to X-Wing in later versions. Also, play XWVM, if you haven’t already.

It’s a sign of the times. When I was a kid the cutscenes were the reward for winning the game, or a portion of the game for those bigger games that could afford more than two cutscenes.

But for my kids cutscenes are the boring things that keep you from playing.

Most Lemmy images stopped working. And maybe what my server is showing me in terms of posts is just what it still has stored.

Edit: My server is actually much more responsive with most of the big Lemmy instances being down. I really hope 1.0 brings great improvements.

I give it five to ten years.

They showed a special build of Alyx rendering only what the player is looking at. I guess they didn’t focus on foveated rendering because it’s

1. Expected to work either way.
2. Needs support from the game.

Foveated streaming will work with all games.

They showed a special build of Alyx only rendering where the eyes are looking and supposedly even that works well. I bet they’re working on a version of Alyx that can run natively on the Frame but it wasn’t fully ready for the announcement.

And maybe a HL3 that works both in VR and flat.

I really hope that we can buy the Frame controllers separately. Playing Twilight Princess on the Wii with one hand behind my head and the other resting on my lap was the most relaxed gaming experience I’ve ever had. Miles away from the crazy flailing about that haters would describe Wii gaming as.

I think the Frame is a great step in that direction. I predict a Steam Phone in 5 to 10 years.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has one of the most interesting world in stories inside and outside of gaming. I hope we will see many more stories set in that world.

The hook alone is great.

So the people started sending out expeditions to find out wtf is going on.

Just yesterday, when I told the great wizard Lorroakan
