I don't root for any rich guy over another, but I do think competition is the best way you're going to keep them in check for a commodity market with little regulation, at least.
On that front the cultish adoration of Newell and all the actively rooting for a Steam PC gaming monopoly is... worrying.
I used to volunteer for humble bundle back in the day. It was a lot of work but very rewarding. Getting a job with gog could be fun. Hope they get the people they need! I've always been impressed by what they are able to accomplish!
What exactly did you do for them? I’d say its a better thing to dedicate your time to than others, when it comes to volunteering time! Like others, I checked over the jobs listed but it doesn’t show if nay are remote, or whether it is strictly for those living in Poland!
I did Linux testing of games and for the platform. This was before valve did a lot in the Linux space. You know the game dust force? One of the reasons it works for Debian is because of something I reported. It's a bunch of very small contributions over a 4 year period. Humble bundle even had their own internal issue tracker. It was technically my first fortay into QA and Linux dev work. Linux native games are awesome.
Nowadays we have proton/wine/etc... (and that's awesome) but Linux native apps have many advantages over an emulated layer. Power savings and CPU cycles just a couple. I'm glad we have so many options for games. Gog or otherwise.
This is very cool. My partner and I are bigger fans of life is strange 2 and we have it on the bucket list to take a few weeks traveling from Seattle down the coast until we get to Mexico.
Unfortunately I cannot stand driving and I don’t think either of us want to visit America for a while but I still hope to do it one day.
The big things from the game would be the redwoods and the US border I guess. Still irks me that the fandom didn’t turn up for LiS2, which I found vastly better - but at least we get that. Lost Records definitely feels like dontnod leaning in to the long-term LiS1 fanbase anyway, to me.
Sounds like another success for id. I’m curious how players (as in general public) who liked 2016 but didn’t vibe with Eternal feel about it in a few months to a year. I’ll guess I’ll keep an eye out on those discussions.
There’s truly nothing else like it on the market right now, especially in today’s overly sanitized, pussy ass snowflake-infested gaming landscape.
I’m glad he found an extremely rare example of a game that doesn’t offend his delicate sensibilities, I guess? I’m sure it’s not easy being a REAL MEN’s MAN these days.
