Fuckin' STOP PREORDERING shite

I had to go look, it’s absolutely amazing. Some guy posted a mock-up of a new Steam controller, and the top response is “I don’t see what this has to do with steam engines”

Sounds kinda like Deathspank, which was awesome.

Dunkey’s promo vid had the dev say he wrote it himself.

would focus on the essence of what made the original series great by making an, “arcadey, amazing-feeling, very accessible, competitive and fun game.” Project Gravity was also planned to be a live-service, free-to-play title

Yeaaaaaah, those two are probably not compatible.

Try to see it like a choose your own adventure instead of "gotta catch 'em all". I find it helps to have a soft rule against savescumming for myself - if I make a mistake, my character made that. The only times I let myself reload is if the outcome of what I did was unclear, and went entirely against what I thought it would do.

Or maybe we just need to stop buying shit that’s just thinly veiled skinner boxes, and play games because they are fun again, not to get the best/coolest/most brag-worthy stuff in-game.

I think you could do a LOT better for $10

MS has been doing that for over 20 years, no news there. The reason for acquiring is to deny acquisition to others, and to ensure MS’s ecosystems have software, I imagine.

Releasing a niche new IP from a well-regarded but lesser-known developer with little to no marketing in the extremely busy autumn and expecting success is... a bit weird. You gotta wonder what they were thinking.

The Eurogamer forum was my place in the early noughties. The forum was suddenly shut down in late 2021, removing about 20 years of discussions.

Arrowhead has less than 100 employees. Helldivers 1 sold much, much less than 2. It has an all-time peak of 6,744 players, and that was seven years ago.

These were the conditions going in. I’m sure they’re trying to scale up and meet the insane demand for bug fixes and content, but that ain’t done in two months. In most respects this is a small developer who hasn’t planned for this kind of popularity.

I think I saw an ad for this when it came out, but I thought it was some multiplayer hero shooter thing, which doesn’t interest me.

Maybe not release it in-between BG3 and Starfield would have been better, hey?

“I was expecting shrinkage after the sale, because that always happens, but not immediately, and honestly not myself because RPS doesn't have an editor at the moment, so without [me] it just won't have editorial leadership. More fool me, eh?”

You can definitely solo a lot of content, if that’s your jam. There’s plenty of vids on YouTube showing this, at the hardest level to boot.

It would, except they transferred all story-related items, regardless of whether the quest was finished or not, including some equipment and alchemy item, and IN BAGS for some reason. It made a whole mess of my MC's inventory whenever I swapped my party around.

Frontier: Elite 2 main theme by David Lowe, Amiga version. It may just be my memories from the game, but that track never fails to pick me up.

Crusader: No Remorse, the entire OST. Industrial meets 90s midi techno.

Ascendancy, OST by Nenad Vugrinec. Awesome ambient sounds.

and the Mass Effect OST.

I’ll grab it in four years, when they give it away for free. And never ever play it.

Nice! Is there a version that would work on PiHole?

Yeah, clearly offering more ways to legitimately purchase their content is predatory… Stellaris is EIGHT years old at this point, it’s hard to find another single player game that’s still supported and updated as well. Every dlc also brings a free update, so all owners benefit.

You gotta watch your back

Well, I beg your pardon

Walk the straight and narrow track

Check a thread you know you wrote something in?

Yes.

Wait, is NMS a game nowadays?

Set up a PiHole if you can, I see no ads whatsoever.

15/5

Is there a decent open source alternative for navigation?

Weird. I have like three crashes total in 66 hours since I bought the game in late march. Did you clear the shader cache, update drivers and all that jazz?
