Oh that’s understandable. Most MMO games, at least in the past before the rise of F2P, had monthly subscriptions (often in addition to needing to buy the base game).

Not sure if this is a joke or not… WoW was always a subscription game-as-a-service.

I regularly dock my Deck and run games at 1080p or even 2160p on my TV so there’s still a use case for Deck owners.

People like to forget Notch.

You can tell how bad it was for developers when even Sega Technical Institute moved Sonic X-treme development off 32X to Saturn and then, after the designer and programmer basically had mental breakdowns, they cancelled it entirely.

I agree with you, Saturn would have been fine if developers had the time to learn the architecture and if Sega hadn’t pulled the launch forward by 6 months by surprise.

I feel so sorry for all those devs who started work on things for the CD or 32X to totally find them defunct before they were able to release their games.

Dreamcast didn’t kill them, it was the Mega-CD, 32X, and Saturn that killed them. Launching three architectures over three years and not giving them space and focus burned a lot of political capital with developers (including those in house) and consumers. By the time the Dreamcast was out, it was already too late.

Which is a shame. Dreamcast was a masterpiece and so ahead of its time.

It’s meant to highlight funny reviews.

Patient Gamers represent!

Titanfall 2 sold like shit yet that’s one of the best single player campaigns and multiplayers in years.

Release the demos!

What’s the state of the game right now? Is the AI working etc? I’ve been holding off until the game stabilises before I pick it up.

And the mad part is I regularly find Windows games run better on Linux though Proton than on Windows directly - and my Windows partition is only for gaming (no other crap installed)!

You didn’t answer the original question.

LTSC?

Darn fucking tooting it is!

Same. Meta spyware on my face has never piqued my interest but Valve can headcrab the fuck out of me.

Deckard is rumoured to be the standalone VR headset (Steam Deck on your face).

Roy is rumoured to be the VR controllers.

Steam Controller 2 is the second coming of Jesus or something.

Palworld is awesome fun but let’s be honest, there’s plenty of jank, inconsistencies, and bland mechanical design throughout the game. Doesn’t stop it from being fun (and my partner and I putting hundreds of hours into the game) but is it award worthy? Probably not.

And well worth the wait!

This is how you celebrate and maintain a legacy but well loved game. I still remember booting the game up for the first time on release day (after hours and hours of downloading haha, boy did Steam suck but look at where it is now).
