Epic’s customer service sucks. Consider my last experience from a prior xmas sale:
had multiple games in the cart with discounts applied, checked out with paypal, but for whatever reason the communication broke and didn’t go through
my cart then got stuck in a limbo where I couldn’t check out with any method to receive the discounts, everything was full price again
opened a customer support ticket to get the problem resolved, then went through 3 days of back and forth, explaining the situation over and over because
each of your replies are handled by whoever the next agent is
who apparently don’t read any history of the ticket, so they provide feedback or advice that already didn’t work
and it can take a full 24 hours or more to get a reply that ignores all previous replies
by the time the error was resolved by a competent person, the sale was over by only a few hours
despite the fact that I only missed the sale window because their reps were incompetent, they refused to make any exceptions to apply the sale prices I had been trying to checkout for 3 days
So, fuck them. I only claim free games from them now.
And I concur with problems other people have mentioned.
each of your replies are handled by whoever the next agent is
The names of their support agents is truly odd. I’ve seen people post complaints about their support that is little more than this:
Hi, this is Charlie Uniform November Tango here to help.
After receiving all the information that you sent us that we requested, we sadly can’t help because reasons.
Thanks for being an epic gamer.
Z tego co pamiętam używałeś Linuksa. Jeśli nadal go używasz, to polecam pakiet ImageMagick i dostarczany przez niego program convert.
Możesz nim pliki zmniejszać co zadanych limitów, np. convert zdjęcie.jpg -scale 512x512 miniatura.jpg lub do jakiegoś procentu oryginału: convert zdjęcie.jpg -scale 25% miniatura.jpg.
Jest to narzędzie linii poleceń i możesz używać go do skalowania wieku plików na raz. Jeśli chcesz pomogę Ci to zautomatyzować.
I guess so… Unless a company is objectively terrible, I guess it does end up being “subjective”.
For example, I like the idea of Linux, but am happy that things work on Windows. And MacOS is too restrictive for my tastes.
Now, surely there are objective reasons for why Linux is better than the others. But the entry point issue for me is that each distro is different, and while I love customisability, I cannot expend energy on setting up my distro at the moment… (Soon.)
Plus, games work on Windows. I do plan to dual boot when I get a better PC, but not yet.
And fuck Apple (subjective, but I don’t wike em). So, yeah 🫡.
I would love their to be more games like this. I just finished Nexus and just started rift apart and absolutely loving it. So annoyed we’re not getting another R&C game to 2029. I LOVE the Spiderman games but rift apart is leagues ahead of them.
DayZ just had it’s 10th anniversary! It is just a great game, complicated and unwieldy but man you can do pretty much anything.
Obviously there’s the zombies, that’s a given, but everyone I meet is playing a different game. PvP can be bonkers… or you can live as a woodland hermit; foraging mushrooms and fruit, hunting animals and fashioning outfits from their pelts. The possibilities are endless!
An active modding community and regular developer updates means it never gets stale. Fantastic platform, I think it’s neat.
The most reliable that I’ve found is an Xbox controller connected via the Wireless Xbox Adapter. I’m not sure they make it anymore though. You will probably have to buy a used one (if interested).
My experience with the Bluetooth on PC is that it was a bit flakey. That may have improved in the last few years though. I ran into a couple of games where it wouldn’t work on BT but worked fine via the wireless adapter.
That same e-waste recycler has new boxed Xbox360 wireless controllers for $20 - I almost bought that then I realized that it needs to buy the proprietary battery pack, the proprietary charging cable and the proprietary USB receiver and it will become the same price of the new Xbox bluetooth controller.
I took a gamble and bought the stadia controller for $15, hope I can find time to flash it to the Bluetooth mode before they close the service
Obejrzałem sobie część wczorajszych i nieźle to wygląda, chociaż zabrakło omówienia kwestionowanej legalności przejęcia. Za to mam wrażenie, że trochę amatorskie wykonanie i umiarkowany ton mają szanse wywrzeć dobre wrażenie a przy głównej publice TVP1.
Myślę, że prowadzenie newsów w możliwie niesensacyjnym tonie mogłoby być wręcz bardzo skuteczną strategią długoterminową. Na tym jechało latami Radio Maryja, “jest spokojne i miłe” - co prawda sączyło jad, ale w uprzejmy sposób. Tu, gdyby program informacyjny był po prostu typ - bez żadnych atrakcji, spokojnie i konkretnie podaną informacją, to mogło by to być w dzisiejszych czasach całkiem atrakcyjne, nie tylko dla starszych. W drugą stronę konkurencja jest nie do wygrania.
I just bought Mad games tycoon 2. Because I heard it was a better/improved game of game tycoon which I played a lot. And ofc, I also bought Baldurs gate 3! Honestly I was considering not buying bg3 and waiting for it not to be discounted, because I wanted to give more money to Larian studio haha
If the issue is having to go through Steam to launch the game, then GOG would be the better alternative, as it gives you a DRM-free version of the game that can be installed and run without depending on them.
Just rediscovered Battlefield Heroes through the fanmade Rising Hub.
Pretty sure it’s the perfect kinda game for a group of 10 year olds to play and socialize on.
Okay, I’m really enjoying Deathloop now. At first I wasn’t super feeling it, but as it went on, it seems to have become kind of like “Dishonored, but if it didn’t take itself seriously at all”.
Part immersive sim, part detective/puzzle game, part rogue-lite.
Has a lot in common with the Sexy Brutale as well, which is interesting, but plays very differently.
Weapons are fun and I love the '60s spy-fi vibe, so I’m enjoying it.
Deathloop is fantastic. Colt and Julianna are brilliantly written and acted, they sell the game singlehandedly. The fact that the rest of it is awesome is just a bonus
