It shows the amount of faith people have in the platform. You’re spending money on something that requires steam to continue to exist (as well as your user account), or else the purchase was wasted.
I wouldn’t advance-buy a game I wasn’t sure I’d play soon on a Google or Microsoft platform. I’d lose the ability to play the take within a year!
Oh, and also I guess it speaks to the quality of the discounts available on steam.
My favorite part about my Dark Urge playthrough is that they often phrase the option as something like, “think about hurting the cat,” and that cat was just a dick to me so while I’d never actually hurt the cat, I can certainly think- oops, I just fucking tortured and murdered that cat.
I just replayed GTA V after the update and I forgot how bad I feel on the torture mission. But then I remembered what the guy looked like and only had to deal with two cutscenes worth. Also got a great line of dialogue if you shout the target early.
I absolutely hate that mission. Even for GTA it sticks out as especially mean-spirited. I always use the battery as few times as needed to get it over with, because it seems like the least horrible thing to do to him.
Trevor’s speech following the mission actually has a decent amount of meat to it. He makes a valid point and the mission is used to demonstrate his point.
He points out how the guy was completely willing to give info, but because everyone is so torture happy, they make a game out of it the whole time (yes, I’m aware), cracking jokes and totally enjoying the guy’s pain.
I really hope the social commentary that permeates Los Santos is still there in GTA VI. Based on what we got in RDR2, I have no reason to doubt this game is going to be scathing on the current political climate. Time will tell.
The problem is that the game forces the player to engage in what is obviously pointless torture. It’s in character for Trevor to do this, but we should be able to choose not to be involved in it. All the same points can still be made if Trevor does it on his own.
With VI, Rockstar is going to have an Onion problem of trying to be satirical in an age when the US government has fully embraced fascism. In Florida, no less! I really hope the game is all anti-authority and there is NO cooperation with any government agencies, only killing them.
I had to spend a few months somewhere with no internet connection for a few months. I brought my laptop so I can play games once I really got bored. One month in I try to open the Epic Games launcher it demands that I connect to the internet to give me access to my games. I couldn’t play any of the games on the Epic Games launcher, while Steam just worked offline the entire time.
I don’t even have the Epic Games launcher on my computer now.
My all-time favorite game is Factorio. If I were stranded on a deserted island and could bring only one game, it would undoubtedly be Factorio. That said, Crusader Kings II will always hold a special place in my heart—even though I tried diving into Crusader Kings III, it just never captured the same magic.
“Oh no, we’re not the top choice for games!”
My kids: we have some time, can we play domething?
I (remembering which games have coop): (opening Epic - nope - opening steam - looking for a game - …)
I didn’t see a way to set it up on Java without running a local server. Is there? I prefer Java, but it seemed like a lot of hours of work to get a server set up.
Yeah you play single player, pause, and hit “open to lan”
Then someone else can connect to lan by typing in the IP. I think it autodetects a lan connection that’s already open, too, but it’s been a bit since I’ve used it.
Escape, open to lan. autodetected by other Minecraft clients on the network and works modded without issues. You can enable cheats (or not) by default every time you open it again.
I tried to make a Blizzard account recently, just for testing purposes. Literally could not do it. Spent half an hour trying to complete weird math quizzes, at the end of which it would just fail. Gave up.
