Vintage Story looks like a pretty cool survival! Do you have recommendations for games on Luanti?

I’m with you. Very puritan, kinkshaming article. Stellar Blade might not be my thing, but I know not to yuck people’s yum. One could take the opportunity to discuss sexual objectification, but apparently that’s off the table.

Oh no! Venture capital has moved to AI! (Anyways.) The article goes on to talk about humongous corporations making dubious decisions and toppling over themselves. Are we supposed to lament Ubisoft’s demise now?

Expedition 33 just came out of nowhere to great acclaim. Valve is hosting a thriving market & slowly but surely freeing PC gaming from Microsoft’s grip. SILK SONG IS DUE THIS YEAR MY FRIENDS. Everyone’s wishlist is as long as their backlog. The bar to entry for development has never been lower. Video gaming is an established medium at this point. A handful of corporative giants infected with a rotten management culture matters little. What essentially matters to me is for the creators out of a job to find new footing.

I understand how you’d extend reproach to the employees of a bad business. I don’t feel it personally though. Solidarity for all workforce trumps it in my heart. Maybe it’s my family ties with active union members.

In gamedev particularly, a lot of creators get in there mainly because of their passion for the medium. Then they get chewed up by shit work conditions. Ultimately dream job type positions are especially vulnerable to abusive management.

(A few days ago I skimmed a super cool post about Steam’s relationship with Linux that says what you’re saying and now I want to give it a thorough read but I can’t find it bee sob emoji. If anyone remembers and has a link to it I’d be super happy bee laugh sweat emoji)

I’m playing Cassette Beasts lately too! It’s such a good monster collector. The low poly 3D+2D aesthetic is on point and it’s real cozy. They don’t hide their Pokémon inspiration but they do their own thing with it and I really like their take. It feels both kinder and more stimulating. I love that basically all battles are doubles.

Me and my son have a history with Pokemon. It’s a franchise close to our hearts, but we’re both disappointed with everything that happened on the switch. I’ll always remember taking him to the anime convention to battle with the local gym champions. Just watched the Z-A trailer and it’s depressing really. The last entries’ artistic direction is utterly lifeless and the gameplay feels stale, despite the revolving door of gimmicks from gen to gen. I’m still hoping, one day, we get a fucking good Pokemon game though.

So just to be clear I’m pulling this out if my ass, but I’m gonna go and say the main trick to be rich is to be born rich. The lack of morality is just a side-effect of your parents being capitalist vampires. Being a psychopath in itself doesn’t give you a business edge.

Tons of research say the opposite as well so there’s that.

Nope, social inequality and class warfare is not just a US thing. Congrats for having rich friends though I guess. Also please stop equating the US with North, Central and South America, thanks

So where’s that magical place of humane capitalism where everyone truly has equal chance regardless of their social background, and nobody buys items made by slaves in the third world?

Meh, Montreal is full of French expats running away from France’s rigid social ladder and the far right is strengthening all across the old continent. I do hope Europeans aren’t all falling into the trap of thinking they’re all good because some other place is worse.

Do you know of good beginner friendly undervolting guides for AMD & Nvidia? This would go a long way towards people heeding your advice.

luciole, 4 miesiące temu

I’d say not. During the last crypto fuelled shortage there was practically nothing available and anything you could get your hands on was ludicrously expensive. Just checked on a few stores and there is currently some offer at varying prices. Just don’t obsess on last gen Nvidia products.

Gah this is the worst. It breaks the enjoyment of a controller with Switch+PC compatibility for me.

My usual strategy although still imperfect for me. Elden Ring has been in my active games for a while now, and it’s hard to properly try Hyper Light Breaker with my kid because of this issue.

And what are we supposed to do with our Switch now? I know it’s been out for a while, but my growing resentment for the linear economy is giving me huge console generation cycle fatigue.

Been playing mostly Our Adventurer Guild. Super fun indie strategy RPG. Pretty close to the ending I think. If you’ve got a Final Fantasy Tactics itch I recommend you check it out! The art and the dialog is kind of goofy, but don’t be fooled this is a solid game.

Nah I feel you. Grew up with the NES as well. I played for a few hours and then I bounced off it. I think I’ll play it some more at one point. I love that it exists, I love the idea of it, but playing it leaves me pretty neutral.

There’s this theory that if an infinite amount of Bored Apes make games for an infinite amount of time at one point they’ll make a decent one. I don’t buy it.

I have the utmost respect for ConcernedApe’s Stardew Valley, I’m happy it’s a success and I’ve played it plenty. I have to say though, there’s something in the game that leads some of us straight into a minmaxing management race-against-the-clock frenzy. I think I could play it casually, but I’d need an unwavering discipline… and that’s the problem.

Good luck assembling, you’ll love PC gaming I’m sure!

Just in case you don’t know already: pcpartpicker.com is an amazing site to plan a build. You can put all the parts you’re aiming to buy and it’ll tell you if there are any compatibility issues. You can share your parts list with a community too and ask for specific advice.

Concerning parts, XFX AMD GPUs are very well built and go for a reasonable price. Their 6000 series have great cost/performance value imho. I have a 6750XT in a PC connected to a 55’ TV and it’s hardly breaking sweat provided I don’t go overboard with game settings. For a normal computer screen you could have plenty of fun out of a 6650 XT I’m sure.

Could you get Amazon delivery from say, amazon.it? It could give you a chance to find what you’re looking for.

That just sounds like any normal day on Twitter. I feel bad for the community managers that still have to put up with that dumpster fire of a platform. This little flame war does nothing to my impression of Godot engine. To be honest I’ve been more worried about reports of rampant bullying.

I’ve only played the two first entries so far (Trails in the Sky FC & SC) and I’ve found them be fun JRPGs. I’d recommend starting by the beginning.

Pathfinder Kingmaker & WotR are such strong titles in most aspects, but in both instances the mini-game they tacked on top of a perfectly fine RPG got on my nerves. Kingmaker’s management sim and WotR’s Heroes-of-Might&Magic-like army battles felt to me pretty rough around the edges (and ultimately tedious), especially compared to how engaging the rest of the games are. Ugh, I love-hate them sooo much.

I started Planet Crafter and I’m hooked. It’s a low budget yet brilliant Subnautica like game with a higher emphasis on crafting.

I’ve been playing Tyranny as well. It’s a nice CRPG with factions in a bleak setting. A little obtuse with the consequences of dialog options. Still refreshing. I really could use the tank character in my party composition, but he’s such an insufferable square I’d rather not use him.
