Try using the IP address of the NordVPN SOCK5 server, instead of the domain.

I had issues with using the domain name provided by Privado, and found switching to the IP address resolved them.

Unfortunate. From here the best I can say is check the logs.

I’d be curious how this all shakes out when including different product lines. For example, Disney movies are merchandised to high heaven. How does the licensing revenue that Frozen picks up add to the pot compared to Overwatch.

Here’s the state of BioWare right here:

Can’t even read the blog post because it’s blocked by Connie preferences and then a dialogue for applying cookie preferences that takes minutes (?!) to run.

Thanks for the archive link.

I would always play AVP2 as an Alien. I loved the mobility of being able to traverse walls and the unique challenges/opportunities it presented. I played it a lot and got quite good at it (would easily be the top player in most games I played), but would more often focus on making use of those unique mechanics for novelty situations.

One map (the forge, or something similar) had high ceilings with ridges built in to it, perfect for hiding an Alien. Instead of running around the map tearing up victims and moving up the leaderboard, I would cling up on that ceiling and wait for an unsuspecting human to pass underneath. I would drop down like a spider, paralyze them with my tail, and immediately headbite them. The glee that I would get from perfectly executing that surpassed any MVP received from high scores. It was fun to just play an Alien like an Alien.

Steam for a few reasons:

  1. Ease of use with the Steam deck
  2. Prices are often cheaper, albeit often through sites like Fanatical/ Humble
  3. Synergizes with my only subscription, Humble Choice
  4. There is a lot of content missing from games on GOG compared to Steam. Most of it is trivial, but sometimes it is substantial. It has created a rhetoric about GOG customers being treated as second class citizens. Google Sheets

I used to try to buy my games at GOG where there wasn’t a significant financial difference. I liked what they were doing, especially with GOG Galaxy at the time. The pendulum swung back to Steam over time, and now I’m just not buying games any more.

Matter of opinion. I would rather have an empty feed than have to scroll past all the memes I have no interest in.

There’s no paradox. It says there is a risk, it is not substantial, and the benefits outweigh it.

Definitely. Their marketing speak may not have any holes in it but wouldn’t trust them as far as I could throw them.

Working parents, how do you find time to game? angielski

I grew up an avid gamer. But now, among my 50-hour work week, helping my kids with their math homework, grocery shopping, and house chores, I’m no longer able to find enough free time to really dive into a game. I mostly play casual games that I can drop in and out of but forget about the 40hr+ games requiring commitment....

I picked up a Switch thinking it would always be attracted to my TV. Maybe it was for a bit, but when my child came along the only way I used it was handheld and for spurts at a time.

That’s how I knew the Steam Deck was an instant buy for me - the pause/resume is key.
