I have bad news for you if you drive a non-electric car 😏

Because there exists only one place in the world and that is called US of A? 🙄

Saudi Arabia is still the biggest oil exporter in the world (as of 2024). If you drive an internal combustion car anywhere, chances are high that you paid the Sheiks at least some money for doing so.

You can apparently play it fine on Linux these days: www.protondb.com/app/552500

(Obviously there is no kernel level anti-cheat there).

Let’s hope there will be a VR version.

Edit: Seems like it is planned:

Will G-REBELS Support VR?

If you look at the final screen of the G-Rebels trailer, you’ll spot the logo of our partner studio “Nord XR”. They’re specialized in all things VR since 2017.

We’re evaluating how to realize VR support best. G-Rebels was designed from day one with VR in mind, but it’s too early to officially confirm anything just yet.

It has always been a “Which game has the bigger fan base” contest 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think I ever agreed with the nominations or the the final winners, because they never make any sense other than through the hype and fan-base lens.

Steam controller obviously (for everything other than retro gaming which often requires a dpad).

Yes, see: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_Controller

The stick is better for movement, while the pads are better for aiming. And the buttons work fine where they are.

Arguably the left side pad is a bit useless for gaming itself, but its nice to have two pads for desktop navigation and using the on screen keyboard that is build into steam.

Will there be a way for communities to opt-out from being listed in a category?

I think there is a lot of abuse potential in this and even if well intended, a single word or so can’t really describe what communities are about, and as a result those categories (similar to the “all” feed) will bring a lot of off-topic comments and trolling from people not engaged with the communities at all otherwise.

On Mastodon with hashtags the original poster can at least make a conscious choice of being listed under it or not. But this seems fully third party driven and I fear it will increase moderation workload significantly.

Most trolling and brigading is fairly low effort, and having a sharable collection of communities to troll makes it much easier to organize lots of people to do just that. Edit: yes external tools for that exist but having it built in makes it much easier to abuse and rope in people to do the trolling that otherwise would not bother.

But my main concern is that this isn’t opt-in for communities. Having a sharable and subscribable link with for example “meme” communities means that all of them are seeing a constant barrage of random people commenting that are not members of that community and do not have any idea what the community is about other than that it is somewhat loosely related to “memes”. It basically hides everything that is vital about the communities and actively damages attempts at community building.
