Simple premise is basically Minesweeper, but all the puzzles are handcrafted with some neat designs and concepts that will stretch your puzzle solving to the limit. Also importantly, no guessing required to solve and it’s dirt cheap for the amount of hours of puzzles you get!

This is a bit victim blamey but why the heck would you buy a Huawei device outside of China? Have to assume you can’t be familiar with the many criticisms…

Whoa get those perverted thoughts out of here commie scum!

I would say isometric adventure game

Back when I was a kid I got into building a cantenna and aircrack-ng when my parents shut the internet off every night. Wasn’t addicted to games, just found it interesting and entertaining. Also came in handy in the days of shaped internet when you ran out of GB for the month.

This looks rad!

On a similar note I Wanna Maker which is more or less Mario Maker but free and tonnes of developer created and user created levels to play through.

Share the other 4 :)

Enshittification is real

Do ya’ll not have beef/chicken/veal schnitzel over there?

OP is not saying “any meat” as in “every meat”, just ones specifically designed as crumbed. It’s pretty popular here in Aus to have breaded meats.

As someone who buys a lot of gadgets and quite often barely uses them afterwards or has mild buyers remorse… I have never once regretted buying a Steam Deck. It really is an amazing piece of technology.

I know it will probably never happen but I find it fun to think they could do a time jump IRL, do a new season after years so everyone is literally older

  • Disco Elysium

  • Citizen Sleeper

  • 1000xRESIST

Japanese and somewhat fan servicey at times but also recommended:

  • Nier: Automata

  • 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim

Last I heard I think they had lost or fired 7 Editor in Chiefs across their holdings in the past 8 months or so. From what I’ve heard they are run pretty terribly for the people that work there and G/O just generally suck.

The former Kotaku EIC in particular did not have nice things to say about them on The Games Press podcast

Epic already tried to sue Apple and Google for basically this, saying they had to charge their customers more to account for Apple’s cut given there was no other means of acquiring.

I completely gave up on the game after they killed the PvE / skill plans for 2 (around Lifeweaver launch), but I played quite a lot of 2 from launch and agree. I really like 5v5 and team structure wise to me the game felt in a great place with the change.

My guess is that they’re still bleeding players and looking for any shot in the arm to bring the oldheads back

Didn’t they already say it doesn’t include the FES content?

Taiji was waaaaay harder than the Witness for me personally, but great choice. The vibe and music and what not is super chill also

Persona 4 / 5. So many bops.

Reminder that every day’s great at your Junes

Man this made me feel guilty downvoting. Great game, a real surprise packet for me, think I got it in a Humble Bundle and tried on a whim and had a great time.

Think it’s an Aussie dev (single person?) too, and still getting pretty frequent large content updates

Not sure what you mean, the linked article was from months ago and the in person vote was yesterday. People had plenty of time to decide to make an informed choice and many decided not to.

This is Kojima’s Xbox Cloud Gaming (whatever that means) game though. So I could see it being PC and Xbox only and not Playstation at least

Were you already wealthy or just a gambler? For me the idea of throwing $800 on a random share just because it was the cheapest is unfathomable

I have used GamersGate, GreenManGaming, Fanatical and Humble without any issues

Ha, funny timing, I actually just got this working yesterday.

I recommend going with OpenTyrian2000 rather than the GOG edition. It has some extra scaling options and music works out of the box.

Basic steps:

  • download OpenTyrian and data files (in Github description) from https://github.com/KScl/opentyrian2000
  • extract all to same folder. Data files should sit in same directory as OpenTyrian2000.exe
  • (optional) if you have a Windows PC, you can try running it and it should start up normally
  • assuming that’s all working, copy the files to your Deck
  • add a new Lutris shortcut to existing game. I used latest Wine.
  • test that you can run the game on Deck, it should boot and play fine with sound and all. Scaling options are in the OpenTyrian2000 menu option.
  • (optional) on Steam side map escape key to start so you can pause the game if needed. All the other default keybinds seem to work though I did not test for long so others like weapon switching may need to be changed.

Hope that helps! Let me know if I’ve messed anything up or if it’s not working for you

Basically Cloudflare aren’t giving Archive.is a piece of DNS information which Cloudflare says is good for privacy and Archive.is says is bad for their ability to load content from regional CDNs

I also ate horse in Japan and didn’t enjoy it

Yeah Worthikids did this which I think was made with Blender?

Still looks damn incredible to me, though I am kinda wistful and sad that this sort of “handmade” art is slowly disappearing (including 2D handdrawn animation)

If you enjoyed Firewatch you’d probably like

  • Gone Home (somewhat the OG of this style of game)
  • The Vanishing of Ethan Carter
  • What Remains of Edith Finch

My case is abnormal, but even more rare is the guys that continue to be in pain for the rest of their lives. Didn't find out about that until I started digging deeper because of my persistent pain.

Dang that sucks your urologist / surgeon didn’t let you know about this. Mine was very clear that though it is rare (was quoted 1% which seems kind high to me) he doesn’t recommend going through with the procedure if you have testicular pain in your day to day as it could be a risk factor for having permanent pain afterwards

Pretty much just astroturfing isn’t it?

Been playing this too, it’s great.

Unfortunately am hitting some hard lockups in the last chapter or two on Deck so have put it down for now - seems to be a common issue based on some forum posts and ProtonDB.

I played through Portal Reloaded just before this which was excellent too, the puzzles are SUPER hard though, way harder than Revolution.

It seems to be down currently but you could do it here

Not sure if there are any other Spaces setup to do illusion generation

If it looks like a developer made a mistake, it was actually the product owner. Or the user. Or cosmic rays. But never the developer.

Uhhh no. The current government is a centre-left party not too dissimilar to the US Democrats.

They’re still fucking useless but at least they’re not dangerously incompetent like the last few right wing governments, or dangerously competent as the current opposition leader (who is an ex-cop) would be in power

For podcasts I highly recommend Into the Aether. They only bring games they like to the show and it’s a super chill and positive show that feels like chatting with friends who are really into vidya games. The episodes are quite long but great to listen to.
