It runs perfectly under Proton via the Steam runtime for me. Genuinely- maybe try Linux?

The Long Dark. Something about wandering an icy wasteland scavenging, hunting, fishing, works for me.

They could add a bid price, so that you automatically buy at a certain price level. Sure, you could bid 0.10, but they’d probably never actually take it. And that way, they could know how much money is laying on the table. If there’s a thousand bids for $50, that gives them a pricing signal.

My synology box is 8 years old now and still getting patches. I would actually buy it again. Good work.

She did the Goblins webcomic animated trailer allng with Phil Lamarr! Super stoked for that.

They abandoned Linux support. Fuck them. It was one of the only games that did. Linux users were a bug part of their initial success, and they dumped us as soon as the money came in.

I’m hoping that Nebula, being run as a coop, will avoid much of that ‘growth at any cost’ mindset.

I didn’t say it was. I watch Youtube as well. Do not put words in my mouth.

This is a perfect example of someone saying “I like beans” and someone responding “WELL YOU MUST HATE TOMATOES THEN YOU NAZI LOVER” or something. :P

It can work out financially - I don’t know how they do it specifically, but suppose they put all the lifetime subs into one investment pool and used the interest on that to fund operations.

$300 can generate $20 per year for them. So I benefit by only having to pay once, and they benefit by getting a chunk up front instead of having it drip out over time.

Up front cash can also mean the ability to invest in larger things. They can put it into infra budget instead of ops budget.

Nebula is really good. I just bought a lifetime sub. Expensive but pays itself back in only a few years. Plus the creators there run it as a coop that has a takeover poison pill of some kind.

That’s fair, I pictured it as more a home system.

That said though:

Suppose this thing succeeds wildly. It sells a hundred million copies, they become a world-bestriding colossus.

It’s now a competitor to Microsoft, running Microsoft software.

That’s not a good place to be. I think this thing is dead as a concept.

Still awesome! Am halfway through an immersive mode playthrough in prep for Ashlands!

I stopped playing WoW literally because as a tank, people get shitty about it if you don’t pull CONTINUOUSLY. Like give a guy a break to breathe or pee.

I will give it a try!

Quite a few gamers who wouldn’t give a shit about those people, but for whom the red mist would descend about some game mechanic or another.

Yeah, I suppose you’re right, I overstated it.

The Epic games launcher is total trash on Linux. I know we’re a small chunk of the market, but Valve has bought a lot of loyalty from me for their work there.

Valve has pretty much singlehandedly prevented Microsoft from using their monopoly to take over gaming. Effectively they’re a monopoly themselves, but it’s better than the alternative. If Valve is dependent on Windows, Microsoft has some major points of leverage. Their support of Linux is good for everyone, not just us. In an alternate universe, Valve is dead and Microsoft is skimming off 30% of every game sold by now.

Absolutely, came here to say this. You can fully turn off what minimal ui there is and it’s still playable. They could really get rid of some menus too, like cooking could be a little more drag and drop.

More animations too. Latest patch went a long way, but eg fire starting and the like.

Best game evar if you like survival games and walking simulators. :P

I’m not seeing The Long Dark.

Sorry, hadn’t intended to come off rude. :(

It’s “come on” or “c’mon”, not “common”.

Which game?
