Fuck HP. I could see these assholes charging you a fee to download anything or use their device in any meaningful way. They are leaders in the enshittification race.

algorithmae,

and then the GPU will catch fire

TomSelleck,

Better hope you paid your fire suppression subscription!

Wow! Im so excited to buy it never.

CrabAndBroom,

There is not a force on Earth that could compel me to ever buy hardware from HP again. I’d rather not have a computer than have an HP computer.

“HPGamerMate requires an active HP Game-On subscription for offline gaming functionality.”

“Remember: You can unlock exclusive HPGamerMate features when you link a valid HP Instant Ink subscription!”

Worse, they would make the hardware in such a way that you need special screwdrivers to open it, and even if you get access to it, the internal design is so hostile that it makes replacing parts a 4 hour experience.

kipo,

“Please submit all fears and worst-case scenarios to the HP Product Design & Improvement Team using our online portal. We strive to implement the most popular ideas into our products.”

kipo,

“The HPGamerMate includes a patented AI-powered blockchain-secured cloud-enabled software-encrypted physical lock on the back of the unit to prevent unauthorized access to the inside of the device. Any attempts to circumvent the hardware lock are considered to be circumvention of the software encryption and will be prosecuted under the Digital Millinnium Copyright Act of 1998 or your region’s specific laws.

HP takes the security of its products seriously and will never burden users with being able to service our devices.”

DebatableRaccoon,

It’s a bold assumption that parts would even be available to buy.

Jesus everyone yes, hp sucks. A lot. But this is still good news. Steam and Linux are being legitimized as real platforms. The more companies who jump in the better.

BmeBenji,

The headline also sucks. “HP are [doing something] because [a different company’s] user experience sucks” reeks of utter hypocrisy

Fantastic game, too bad no one plays anymore.

@Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world avatar

Blendo games is a really unique developer.

I really liked Atom Zombie Smasher and Thirty Flights of Loving (even though it’s very short for some reason I found the experience to be unique).

Tried Quadrilateral Cowboy, I liked the setting and aesthetic, but I wish the gameplay was bit more varied. Have not tried Flotilla.

Skin Deep looks interesting.

I couldn’t remember why Blendo Games was familiar to me until you mentioned AZS. Such a good game!

Agent_Karyo, (edited )
@Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world avatar

They are the OG indie devs.

I still play Atom Zombie Smasher once in 3-4 years (you can get the mods off the dev’s website).

For people unfamiliar with their games: Their first one “Gravity Bone” is free on steam. It is super short and almost 20 years old, but it shows off their style and humor very well. Loved their games ever since.

I didn’t realize they were still around. It’s awesome to see they’re still sticking to id tech.

Snickeboa, do games w Monster Train 2 is now set for release on May 21

To you who have played Monster Train and are in the loop about Monster Train 2: should I play monster train 1, or does Monster Train 2 seem to be just a better version of it and I can wait for it?

simple,

Monster Train 2 is pretty similar, I’d recommend playing the first game since it gets really cheap on sale.

Play the first game without the DLC first (it can be toggled in the settings if you bought it). It changes the balance a lot and makes the game more difficult, so it’s more intended for people that are already familiar with the game.
