and was not just some sort of “Russia bad” thing from Torvalds

The way he announced it and responded to the critics very much made it seem like that. He legitimately needs to shut the fuck up and get a PR person to talk in his stead.

Can’t possibly be denser than Elon.

And you’re not supporting a godawful abusive company such as Nintendo.

Honestly the Switch 2 is the only future console I have any excitement for.

Steam Deck or literally any other portable PC over whatever the hell Nintendo regurgitates next.

Blowout soon, fellow Stalker.

Technical Death Metal. Depending of the band you get this ridiculously crazy and sophisticated instrumentalism and polyrhythmic beats like Archspire, other times you get more progressive, experimental groups like Blood Incantation that mix and match genres and soundscapes.

In fact, the newest album from Blood Incantation is a good example of that, one moment you’re listening to fast blast beats and then it suddenly takes a hard turn into pink floyd and slowly starts crescendoing back into fast Death Metal over the next couple of minutes. It’s an absurd aural experience to say the least, but I really like experimental music that pushes boundaries even when it doesn’t totally work.

Sure, and if you don’t uninstall Galaxy, go through some hidden menus and download the installers then your GOG games will be gone regardless.

The idea of extinction periodicity has been criticised due to the fact that the hypothesis assumes that most or all extinction events have the same cause, when evidence suggests that extinctions are likely the result of a variety of causes that are unlikely to be cyclically induced.[8]

Once you realize that only one mass extinction has happened due to a meteorite it kind of becomes obvious it’s a bogus theory.

For real, I’ve saved a countless amount of money on games by using this site for the last decade or so. If you’re gaming on PC and you don’t already use it (or something similar) then you’re doing yourself (and your wallet) a massive disservice.

I don’t really mind early access, but it really depends on the game, stuff that is very pick-up and play like roguelikes and shooters is fine, but anything story based or long is a hard pass for me.

That’s like Rune Factory? I thought it was more like Minecraft/Terraria but top-down. It’s been living in my Steam wishlist for a while too now, waiting for a decent discount.

Never thought I’d say this, but I’d be down to vandalize this “museum”.

I probably would’ve already gotten it if wasn’t early access, the possibility of having to restart a game that requires a lot of time commitment is a deal breaker for me, so I’d rather wait until it’s finished. On another note, I’m kind of tired of so many Stardew Valley clones, I wish there were more games like Rune Factory instead with less farming and more RPG and dungeon crawling. I think the only one like that that comes to mind is Sun Haven(?) and that one has been in my backlog since forever now…

Mixed and mostly positive reviews… Oh boy.

The Huns would like a word with you.

Time for an invasion, boys! First Costa Rica and then Iceland!

There’s this concept in game design called game flow, which in simple terms is essentially what happens when a game is both engaging and challenging at just the right amounts to the point where you get immersed in the experience. You can’t have good flow without both some challenge and reward.

That’s why games that are too simple and/or easy are boring. I feel like that’s a very fine line you have to walk if you want to make a “cozy” game. How relaxing is relaxing enough without being boring? You need a minimum of challenge and stakes, because that’s makes good games good.

They think alphabet agencies can’t hack/infect/bug their fairphone at will without them even noticing.

They think only Chinese phones are spy phones
