His full name is John Mastodon Pterodactyl Triceratops Sabre-tooh Tiger Tyrannosaurus but he just goes by John Mastodon for short.
You can exclude tags by going to your Store Settings page and scrolling down to “Tags to Exclude.” You can only exclude up to 10, and this only works for games that are actually tagged with the word. It doesn’t exclude keywords in the description. I don’t know how many games are actually tagged with “dystopian.” I get 3195 results when I search for the “Dystopian” tag, so at least you can exclude those.
This works best for genre types.
the lawsuit accuses Keighin of streaming leaked Switch games, including this month’s Mario & Luigi: Brothership, ahead of release using emulation software as many as 50 times in the last two years. Nintendo is seeking $150,000 in damages for each instance of alleged copyright infringement.
Hilarious that the screenshot Kotaku use in the article is his social media post with his recommendations of what sites to download the games from.
Older games are better than a lot of modern AAA slop, but not for the reasons she describes.
I was hoping she would talk about game design, or writing, mechanics, player agency, gameplay before graphics or literally anything else but she spent nearly 15 minutes only talking about tired culture wars talking points like, “why don’t women look feminine aymore,” “why are characters designed for diversity/inclusion first before story,” “Concord sucks lol.”
Yeah AAA writing is shit, please change the record so all the sweaty neckbeard virgins complaining about Aloy’s facial hair can crawl back in their caves. So sick of hearing about it.
She shouts out Asmongold in her comments. Disgraceful.
you might send that email to the client too by mistake and get fired
That’s an unfair dismissal lawsuit: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/smith-oxford-b2616638.html
Instead of linking to a jpeg hosted on a non-HTTPS website for a weird investments scam you could just link wikipedia:
I hate to be the one to break it to you, but railing against “forced diversity” is just a dog-whistle for rejecting actual diversity.
Normal people don’t actually care about it. If something is shit because it’s badly written with bad character design then we say “it’s shit because it’s badly written and has bad character design,” not “it’s bad because it has women and minorities.”
You clicked the tree somewhere and it would tell you either to try again, or you would win something. I think most people who won got $5 and a monkey plush toy. I’m not sure anyone ever won the jackpot. You could just click over and over again trying to remember where you had previously clicked, like a treasure hunt. Meanwhile they’re showing banner ads on the page.
It worked using the ismap attribute on the image which tells the browser to add the x,y coordinates of the user’s click to the link when fetching the result.
Since nobody has mentioned it yet, the other game that ruined his reputation for me is Godus. He funded it with a kickstarter with the promise it would be a successor to the God-Sim genre like Populous. It turned out to have all of the dark patterns of mobile games (time-gating with micro-transactions), but in a PC game.
Why would there be any reason to bring feminism or Covid into that in the first place?
From another article:
The cautionary note against “feminist propaganda” is a reminder that Game Science have yet to respond to allegations of pervasive sexist behaviour from November last year. In a lengthy report for IGN, Rebekah Valentine and Khee Hoon Chan described “a studio plagued by claims of sexism”, linking this to misogyny elsewhere in the Chinese games industry and on the government-firewalled Chinese internet. The developers have raised the drawbridge in response: when Edders attended a preview event earlier this year, they refused to say anything on the subject in advance.

218/250 were fully playable at good framerates (60+). He notes that the more popular a game is the more likely it is to work flawlessly.
-
Of the remaining 32 games that had problems, 12 of them defaulted to the iGPU on the CPU instead of using the Intel dGPU. He had to disable the iGPU in Device Manager to get them to use the dGPU. 11 of those 12 worked flawlessly after making this change.
-
5 games crashed on launch (Avatar: FOP, Batman Arkham Knight, Sim City 4, Left 4 Dead 2, Saints Row 2)
-
6 games ran but with graphical artifacts (Bioshock, Dirt Rally, Ghost of Tsushima, Starfield, GTA4, The Witcher 3)
-
11 games ran but with poor performance (Starfield, Alan Wake 2, TLOU1, Hellblade 2, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Yakuza Like a Dragon, Metro: Last Light, +4 more not specified).
-
He also had problems running with multiple monitors.
-
Older games seem to mostly run fine, newer games seem to be the ones more likely to have problems.
Their post is specifically about Populous: The Beginning which came out in 1998 and was the first Populous game to use 3D graphics. It has quite different mechanics than the original Populous games, and you can see the DNA of Black & White emerging, with the concept of having a leader character that has an important role in the gameplay.
This was a joke, 14 years ago:
I think the post is supposed to link here: https://timemachiner.io/2022/06/18/windows-95-launch-video-reminds-us-how-90s-the-90s-were/
For some reason when I view the post it just links to a jpeg
This is the Windows 95 launch video in my mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kemivUKb4f4
