I didn’t like it either, but you could still play locally against ai without it, it was their online matchmaking and game servers that required the new epic account.

Still sucks, but it’s not quite the same rug pull that’s often seen.

That’s a bummer, because I was considering the same thing and was wondering what Xbox controller support would be on Linux.

Steam is a good platform, but if this strategy works and it kills off kernel level anticheat and gets more Linux support, those would be next level contributions to gaming.

Calm down there Satan, that sounds pretty awful.

If Cortana had copilots LLM behind it, it might have survived.

Or maybe the 512kb.club a more reasonable balance between 250 club and the 1mb club.

Also with a view: jankfree.org for a similar focus on performance.

Yes. You can. I have a personal site that is using nuxt static site mode and it renders extremely fast and clean output.

Check out https://250kb.club all performance sites focused on speed and small size.

It’s pretty bad on PC as well, with more and more games requiring kernel level anticheat software. I wish I had something positive to say. Just lots of bad news coming out in gaming it seems.

I robbed my self of that ability accidentally, because I preferred cs 1.3/4/5 and it was won only, so I actively avoided 1.6 like the plague and with it steam. Then halflife 2 came out and I bit the bullet.

Servers ain’t free. But they could at least roll the expansion cost into the subscription.

Is that because of the extension marketplace? Or the fact that the debugger has always been closed source?

That’s exactly what happened to me too. It was in the background until something disrupted my status quo and then there was no looking back.
