They need to fix their launchers on all systems before the do anything else. I’m happy to support them in their mission of game preservation, but they really don’t do a good job at providing a high quality service.

Also, I’ve purchased things from them that were never provided, and they refused a refund (warcraft 2 battle net key). I know it was likely Blizzard’s fault, but they could have at least responded to my emails with more than “no refunds, we are working on it”.




I imagine they will just let you use your steam licenses for games that already exist on Xbox


The driver issue was on Windows for me. Haven’t updated the Linux driver since then


NVIDIA driver rant
Figured I would share this in case anyone is in the market for a new GPU. For the last month or so, every NVIDIA driver released has been incompatible with 4000 series cards (at least when using display port). As soon as any of the last 4 driver releases are installed, the screen goes black, forcing you to boot into safe mode then roll back or uninstall the driver. The 5000 series cards are very new - it's crazy that the seem to have just stopped supporting 1-2 year old cards so they can focus on their new line. That being said, the new drivers are allegedly not great for the 5000 series either. TL;DR: Consider AMD, it'll probably work better with Linux anyways :)

I made it through, didn’t even have to use throwables. Last boss was tough though!


I didn’t even realize there was a tutorial



Everything about the game is satisfying to play


To me it’s frustrating how similar they are… can’t get into rivals. I swear even the voice actors were chosen to sound like overwatch.





Ironically Balatro has proven this is close to what we wanted. Of course if blizz made that game, buying jokers would require a credit card.


Wonder where the money goes, considering the fact that a lot of the core gameplay code could be reused.

Also how has Black Ops 6, which presumably cost at least a billion to make, STILL not managed to make their free-for-all mode actually work??


Hope you installed on two separate drives, windows doesn’t tend to play nice when reinstalling


People aren’t playing the original version anymore though?


I like how the first line of this article below the images states how epic’s flagship unreal 5 game has outdated graphics… Doesn’t make me feel like they did any sort of research.


Definitely WoW overall, but I don’t know how much time. Minecraft is around 300 I think. Factorio is a fairly recent addition for me, but is leading my steam library now, with Terraria in second. I assume RuneScape would be a contender as well. Maybe ESO too… I used to have a bit of an MMO problem.



I am barely aware of it, definitely don’t know about it until it’s in progress. I do like cramming a few trailers though, and wondering whether silksong is real


Great trailer, although it edged a bit too far into Star Lord territory at the end there



The funniest thing about this is the fact that the devs are being forced to use AI.

Why? Because I’ve played the game, and there is basic win condition logic that doesn’t work for a major game mode (free for all). The 3 people with the most kills are supposed to win… except currently the 3 winners are chosen randomly out of everyone in the game. Probably the single stupidest software bug I’ve ever seen, especially considering the budget.


Thank god “kicks” are supported in this mode, or else I wouldn’t be able to show my support for nike


Imagine they surprise drop on the same day


Honestly I will likely continue to support them anyways - despite my grievances against them, they are still doing a better job at preservation than their competitors.



Online play has been broken for a long time for Warcraft 2 on gog. I complained like 2 years ago that they never sent me a code, and they said they were aware of the problem and were working on it. I complained again and they never answered.

I’m all for game preservation, but gog is kind of a shitty company. They can convince me otherwise by having better customer service (or by developing a launcher that actually works).


Do you not realize you’re doing the same content over and over and over again?


I personally am 100% certain they were trying to ride the Chalamet train






  1. I’m guessing the other guy who responded was correct - must be related to markdown lists not having enough space for 4 characters before the period.


Just downloaded a 200kb Session APK from Neo Store
It came as an update, and I installed it without thinking. I did see the size before launching thankfully and uninstalled - how screwed am I?

Is Termux still the best terminal emulator for Android?
I've seen a few other terminal emulators floating around different app stores - has anyone tried these, and found that they were actually better than Termux? Would love to check out any recommendations!
