Hence me saying games run fine off an SD card after a reference to a quote falsely attributed to Bill Gates 😁

256GB ought to be enough for anyone!

I run most of my games off an SD card and it’s been fine.

(It seems people have not heard of the Bill Gates 640KB quote and/or my delivery is off)

Touchpads on the Deck are really great for on screen menus for things like ability bars and whatnot.

I’m looking forward to the Frame. I have no interest in giving any money to Meta and Valve has been great with Linux support. I’ve seen people complain about the specs, but if it’s a reasonable price it looks pretty good to me!

Have you tried ALVR? It works pretty well for me at least. Supposedly the latest Steam Link VR beta works with several headsets too.

I can think of no higher praise for the DMA!

And he’ll just come back as a BT to ominously hover over the team.

Cool! I think your intended experience can fuck off if there’s something about it I don’t enjoy.

I haven’t played this game yet so I don’t know if this is the case, but my free time is precious and if I bought the game its my choice how to enjoy it.

Thank the maker for mods!

Anyone know how good Hori’s d-pad is?

Yup! I don’t have a PS5 but I’d have already bought it on Steam if it was out. Now since I have to wait anyway, I’ll probably just wait for it to go on sale since the hype is gone.

Because Bethesda isn’t being cut out of anything. You still need to buy the original game to use mods. And most mods are made using the official modding tools that Bethesda released (Creation Kit).

Sega Dreamcast. It had and IMO still has some of the most unique games ever. Crazy Taxi, Powerstone, Jet Set Radio, the list goes on!

"The global video game business is big but barely growing, Spencer noted to me. One measure, from industry research firm Newzoo, estimates that 2023 game industry revenues were up just 0.6% from 2022. "

So still growth and a little bit more revenue. Total justification for mass layoffs. 🙄

Yes it seems that sometimes you can’t stop an enemy attack. I wonder if that’s by design.

The game certainly isn’t as good as Chrono Trigger, but I’m enjoying it as a nice tribute.

Nice to see someone else who’s favourite game is Chrono Trigger!

Ever play Sea of Stars?

I wish! 😢

I have an original Deck and I love it! They didn’t make it more powerful or anything like that so I feel no need to upgrade.

The special edition with the orange accents is sexy though!

I feel like that in most games but not in BG3. I do still reload sometimes if I fail a check, but BG3 makes failures fun! It’s rather rare that you’re actually locked out of something, and often times a failure leads to interesting outcomes.

I’m sure there is also a lot that I’m missing and don’t know about, so there’s no sense of FOMO. I really do appreciate that the game doesn’t many things. There’s no tracking that you’re attained 45 of 53 powers, or 237 of 245 hidden biscuits, or that you’re missing that last upgrade point to unlock something cool. I also haven’t come across any annoying skill quests where you have to take down 14 enemies in 12 seconds while hopping on one leg.

Larian has done a great job of writing interesting content for pretty much every outcome, and it’s one of the few games that I feel I will want to replay to see a different side of things. There’s a whole quest line in act 1 that you can only get if you fail a random check. I found that pretty novel.

If you haven’t played it, try Mooncrash too! It’s a great side story to Prey.

The article doesn’t even mention Daikatana 😥
