Treczoks,

I’m currently watching videos of “The Last Caretaker”. Still in development / public beta, but nicely done.

Treczoks,

Not a loss for me. I liked them when they were still good, on C64 and Amiga. But now? Good riddance. May the sheiks have fun with it.

Treczoks,

So Steam is still doing business in Russia? I actually thought they were better than that.

Treczoks,

Always compare value and price.

More often than not, AA games seem to come with a AAA price tag.

Minecraft is removing code obfuscation in Java Edition (www.minecraft.net) angielski

Minecraft: Java Edition has been obfuscated since its release. This obfuscation meant that people couldn’t see our source code. Instead, everything was scrambled – and those who wanted to mod Java Edition had to try and piece together what every class and function in the code did....

Treczoks,

Obfuscation got more and more useless, as there was a serious pressure that AFAIK even tools popped up to specifically de-obfuscate Minecraft.

Treczoks,

Some shitty games will hold out, but as long as the majority works better under Linux, I’m fine with it.

Treczoks,

While they might or might not have reasons to raise prices, those people who cancelled their subscriptions definitively had their reason.

Treczoks,

Some games give you “end credits”, but if you safe and reload, it puts you in the next chapter…

Treczoks,

EA is not yet bad enough? They are actually trying to make it even worse?

Or is behind all this some rich, disappointed gamer who wants to ruin EA with a vengeance?

Treczoks,

Kids crying because a game is not a walkthrough? Maybe they should play something more suitable for their age group.

Treczoks,

It’s not about me liking it or not. I don’t even have that game. The point is that one should play games fitting ones abilities. There are people who will master this game, like I mastered Elite about forty years ago. Complaining about a game being difficult is either they overestimated their abilities, or they lack perseverance.

For the rest, there is always tictactoe or animal crossing.

Treczoks,

American Truck Simulator? Why? Desert Bus already exists.

Treczoks,

That’s not a statement. It’s just a lame excuse and attempt to escape the blame for their behavior.

"We approached payment processors because Steam did not respond" - Australian pressure group Collective Shout claims responsibility for Steam and Itch.io NSFW game removal (www.eurogamer.net) angielski

tldr: Australian pressure group Collective Shout has claimed responsibility for the recent Itch.io and Steam developments that have seen the platforms change how they deal with - and in some cases remove - NSFW games and content from their respective platforms....

Treczoks,

I’m expecting many services to accept alternative payment methods soon, just to beon the safe side from meddling ex-monopolies.

Treczoks,

I thought more of Wero or Taler.

Treczoks,

How would I know? uBlock keeps the shit off the machine.

Treczoks,

Make boring shit, get no love from the community. It’s as easy as that.

Treczoks,

I burned so much time with those games. Where will it be published, and how much will it cost?

Treczoks,

Thanks!

Treczoks,

Oh yes, Loderunner. And Castles of Dr. Creep!

Treczoks,

Someone so disconnected with reality should not represent anyone.

(PC) Chill farming games (non-Anime)? angielski

It’s Steam sale and I’m looking for chill farming/building games that do not look like Anime. The setting is secondary, because I’ve no idea what’s out there. Can be in space, historical, fantasy, anything really and I’ll have a look. I just don’t like Anime style and forced cuteness....

Treczoks,

Thanks. I moved it to the right spot. Congrats on finding out where it actually belonged from the few clues!

Hytale, once touted as the Minecraft killer, is ceasing development (www.destructoid.com) angielski

After being in development for over 10 years, Hytale, a sandbox game from the Hypixel Studios team with support from Riot, has officially been cancelled. Hypixel Studios’ CEO, Noxy, announced the cancellation on X on June 23, with the official Hytale forums following suit.

Treczoks,

“Minecraft Killer”. For that, it should have been released first, shouldn’t it?

And even if it was a super mega game, it might just find a niche on its own.

Treczoks,

Not that I would have bought it - not my type of game - but this game gets on my blacklist.

Should we boycott games with loot boxes? angielski

I have been avoiding multiplayer Valve games like Counter-Strike 2 and Team Fortress 2, due to their in-game economies that have created an underage gambling gray market, which Valve has done little about. However, I am on Linux, and the choices for multiplayer shooters are few. Besides, my small boycott is not stopping...

Treczoks,

No, we should see that they are made illegal.

Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? angielski

I know I remember seeing some people talk about how nice some of the environments in Hitman were, and that they’d just walk around as a tourist from time to time, treating it like a walking simulator/virtual tourism thing instead of the stealth assassination game it is. Curious about other things like that, where you play a...

Treczoks,

For some time I used Minecraft as a mindnumbing tool. I dug a huge underground structure with stone pickaxes. I had some chests of wood down there to make new pickaxes, chests, and torches, and dug an underground space of several square kilometers, 30ish layers high.

Nintendo Switch 2 hands-on reveals a proper generational upgrade, though its biggest new idea remains unproven (www.eurogamer.net) angielski

After four hours with Switch 2, and time with all of its new first-party games, I can see it - though the console’s more experimental side is also its weaker. Of course, there is absolutely nothing wrong with creating a better version of a hugely-successful console, keeping the main Switch concept of hybrid play intact while...

Treczoks,

The key problem for the Switch 2 will be to compete with the Steam Deck. While a good Steam Deck is still a bit pricier, there are a myriad of titles, and the vast majority of them are much cheaper than the 70-90 price point targeted by Nintendo.

Treczoks,

We will see. The big advantage of the SD is the ginormus library of games that already exist, the advantage of the S2 is that they have the Nintendo exclusive titles that have a good and solid fan base. With the S1, it was a no-brainer, the other consoles were limited in their game selection with a small hand of exclusives, and they were more expensive than the S1. The S2 is not far from the SD in terms of price. So this time, there actually is competition.

Treczoks,

That might be true. For party games or Animal Crossing, the Switch is still the top choice. For the non-casual gamer, though, it is way to limited.

Meta: “We're Still Investing Massively In VR Gaming And Don't Plan To Stop” (www.uploadvr.com) angielski

Meta says it funded over 100 VR & mixed reality titles that shipped in 2024, as well as over 200 currently in “active production”. […] These figures were revealed today at GDC 2025 by Meta’s Director of Games Chris Pruett, during a talk where he also claimed that opening the store and heavily pushing Horizon Worlds did...

Treczoks, (edited )

Well, it is their money they are burning. Good luck with that.

Treczoks,

Braben & Bells “Elite”. The original one on the C64.

Treczoks,

Second that! Worms was great fun when hanging out with friends.

Treczoks,

I’m outing me as ancient:

  • M.U.L.E.
  • Load Runner
  • The Castles of Dr. Creep
  • Seven Cities of Gold
  • Paradroid
  • The Sentinel
  • Hanse / Kaiser / Fugger
Treczoks,

Now that if a game for real adults!

Let the kids play with their insignificant toys…

Treczoks,

I have done this so many times…

Treczoks,

The “priorities list” has only two entries: a) make money with it and b) make it in a way that we can make a sequel to make more money.

Treczoks,

Does this mean there will be a professionally recorded “Order!” mp3 somewhere?

Treczoks,

The more confusing thing is a change on February 8th, where they add a Russian edition to their game if I interpret it correctly.

Treczoks,

Should be easy. Just take a AY-3-8500 chip, and the gaming console is basically done!

Treczoks,

If their game was that good, we would read about it up and down the net. The fact that I read about it here for the first time tells a different story.

Treczoks,

I’m using a software that sometimes throws an info requester when loading a project. And this requester can occasionally end up in the background, depending on what I am just doing. The other requester “Loading Project XYZ” meanwhile stays in the foreground and does not proceed, as it waits for the other requester to come back with an OK.

Treczoks,

Yes, and they are real games. We just played ‘Exploding Kittens’, and yesterday, we played ‘Tichu’.

Treczoks,

Playing online games with your family while everyone is at home. You can’t be more fake than that.

Treczoks,

As someone who grew up with block graphic games and sprites on a 320x240 pixel screen in 16 colors, this looks impressive. Not my kind of game or genre, but still well done.

Treczoks,

Two games on the C64: “The Castles of Dr. Creep” and “Elite”. The first was a jump-and-run platform game with incredibly simple and lowres graphics, but perfect for two cooperating players. The second was the absolute classic space game by Braben and Bell.

Treczoks,

As in “We started a trial balloon, and your unfounded criticism made us take it back.”
