As someone with no interest in predominantly NSFW games, it does bother me a bit that that is the most common type of game that show up for me unless I disable NSFW completely.
But my problem is exclusively with the algorithm and not with those games. I’m surprised that in 2025 a 200+ hour rpg with one implied sex scene may get tagged with the same ‘NSFW’ category as a Sex Simulator type of game, with no way to hide one without also hiding the other.
All itch.io had to do was create a “monetization-unfriendly” tag and aplly it to those games and hide them behind an opt-in toggle (with some proper notification for current users). They could even target their ads based on that toggle and get even happier advertisers with it.
I think I had a Mandela effect. I had clear memories of news breaking out about Epic Games acquiring itch.io, but googling for it now, all I see is references to when they added it to their own store.
I got the game from some magazine, in a time I didn’t have many choices for games. I didn’t speak much English yet at the time so I had trouble getting past some stuff and didn’t get very far. I even named my first dog after the robot dog in the game.
I picked it up on steam a few years ago and tried it again. I think I got much farther than I had back in the day, but still didn’t finish it. I think I might try it again on deck now.
Sir, there’s something wrong here. I spent 20 years believing I was the only person who ever played Septerra Core, and it’s too long to change my mind now.
You probably have different gaming habits than me, or a hell of a memory. I’ve likely played over 4 thousand different games over the course of my life so far.
… Now I want to use one of those tools to try to figure out this number.
So 7 hours on that battery would be approximately 5 hours on the deck.
I’ll download dead cells here to see how long the deck can run it in one charge, but I doubt it’ll reach anywhere close to five hours with the default settings.
How big is the battery on the legion go? The deck’s battery drains so quickly I wouldn’t be surprised if it couldn’t last 7 hours even in the home screen.
This is mostly so they can auto close support threads from “can’t get Autocad to run on it” to “system rebooted in the middle of a work presentation and I got fired, I demand compensation”
Now that you mention it, I remember that I would play it with mouse + controller for some reason (back at 1.0), not sure why I picked that as the best way to play but there was probably something bad about using the keyboard and also something bad about not using a mouse.
The slow movement is what kept me from playing it forever. I know there’s mods that improve it, but I wish the base speed would be higher.
Back at 1.0 launch it also had a bug where walking diagonally was even slower, so that may have affected my judgment as well - it was fixed after a week or so.
