It’s thr reason a SIGNIFICANT portion of users still put up with their bullshit OS on their machines. Doesn’t mean they aren’t shitting the bed with said OS or their gaming divisions.
Certified foxgirl enjoyer. Weeb, but hasn’t properly watched anime in ages. Gamer of incresingly niche subgenres. Aficionado of racecars, mechas, fighter jets, and any other vehicles you can think of. Lives in the wrong side of the planet compared to all my friends. Made way too many Fedi accounts

The exact same bullshit they pulled on Helldivers 2 and all their other recent PC games, for that matter, even the single player ones needing PSN logins and region locks. Don’t buy their stuff.
Is anyone surprised by this? Really? At this stage, after we’ve seen the lenghts that Sony has went to stuff PSN account requirements on even their offline singleplayer games?
Most of them have no idea what they’re talking about, and sometimes those who do, are making a video just for entertainment purposes or got paid (in getting a free game key) to not say anything too bad about it.
Real. Ever since I spent some time setting up good CRT shaders, playing retro games feels a lot cooler. They just give the best feeling and look pretty nice with them on. Sometimes for fun, I leave the shader on for regular Windows usage.
Wait, wasn’t this one actually kinda decent at being a CoD clone? Lmao. Ubisoft can’t get anything done right.
Take-Two CEO? absolutely do not believe anything coming out of his mouth or company. Scum.
The banner ad looks like they’re promoting a free week of the game… Which is already free to play. Are they really that desperate to get attention on it to counter these negative reviews? Lmao. I haven’t played in a while but I left a negative review there.
Good move, too bad it’s tied to an incredibly bad game that ruins the franchise. Thanks a fucking lot Randy you sleazeball. Never trust Gearbox with anything.
It’s the bit about RIPPING AND TEARING them to bits and rebuilding the Earth at the end.
I like playing “Asuna” as a minecraft-adjacent experience, with a bunch of nice world generation mods already packed in. But I also have concocted my own modsoup on top of that, so it’s also pretty far from the vanilla of that. There’s other games that come up mostly ready for play, like Mesecraft or Voxelibre (that one being mostly an actual MC clone, also renamed) look around the content DB tho, there’s a ton of nice stuff around.
There’s way too much stuff in there, but as of right now I think it’s Mechanicus, and the Serious Sam HD remasters, thanks to a recommendation in another thread just now. I also have a couple interesting demos I downloaded. The problem is, I haven’t played anything from my Steam at all in the past month or so. Everything I’ve been gaming has been outside of it.
Also hilariously, these Serious Sam games were the literal first games I bought when I created my Steam account and I never played through them. They were an impulse buy from a friend’s recommendation back in the day but I wasn’t as into boomer shooters as I am now.
Yes, actually, it is part of the charm. The series started back on the PS2 and still kinda looks like that. Instead, they get to use fancy bright lighting for the weapons and lasers, and hundreds of enemies on screen at the same time, with each of them blowing up into hundreds of tiny pieces. It’s a very bonkers game, just focused on being a fun horde destroying experience. And it’s themed as classic monster B-movies with alien invasions and legally distinct Godzillas.
Win11 might get “usable” in the same sense that 8.1 was “usable” closer to the end. It was still a turd. I’m sticking with my Windows10 install as long as I can, and later switching the gaming PC to Linux if necessary. Maybe even keep a partition or drive with 10 as a “retrobox” for when it’s end of life. It’s mostly old games that don’t run well on Linux, anything more modern should be fine.
There’s even launchers that do the work of the batch files for you! I like using Doom Explorer or Doom Runner for that. You set it up with your ports, point it at your wads folder and then you can save preset combinations of mods, it’s so practical.
I immediately sought out working backups of both Yuzu and Ryujinx. The “bright side” of this situation is that it pissed me off enough to go acquire both the new Zelda game that potentially caused this whole situation by being leaked early, and the game that was at the absolute top of my to-play list: Unicorn Overlord. So far it is looking like a fantastic game.
I’m thinking less bribe and “laughing away to the bank” and more of a “Nintendo threatened to ruin their life with legal fees if it wasn’t taken down”. The frivolity of said case is irrelevant when they just bully normal people legally like that.
Of course, when said expectations were: to take the crown off of Call of Duty and make a billion gazillion microtransaction dollars, anything would be below expectations.
But also, as it turns out, even the CoD-heads that are tired of the franchise don’t really like the gadgets/hero shooter gameplay over gunplay.
Not launching on Steam for a year also didn’t help things.
The new Kex port is great for it’s accessibility for new players not used to the Doom sourceports scene, but I guess there’s still a few kinks to solve. I still end up preferring to play on my other sourceports (Woof! Is my favorite) but I gotta get back to it to actually finish Legacy of Rust later. At least this new port is MUCH better on the console versions now, if only the Switch version had proper access to the player uploaded addons…
In the meantime Ive been going through Freedoom 2, and I hear people are adapting the assets of the new mapping format into an open sourced version. Looking forward to that.
Surprised it took this long to happen. The game was already a shambling corpse after it got sold to a crypto company.
