At least there’s a chance they’ll just give it away for free.

It would be completely fine as a cutscene in an 18+ rated game, but it was a bit much for a trailer revealed at an (all ages?) event with no warning at all. Extremely detailed melting flesh and interspecies copulation was not on my bingo card.

Wishlisted, looking forward to more info.

Yeah Respawn is a good dev, just a shame they got bought by EA and scrapped Titanfall 3.

EA (Respawn) peaked at Titanfall 2 and hasn’t released anything good since. I set them to Ignore on Steam a few years ago.

You just reminded me of a funny feature I found in Elite Dangerous (space MMO) to prevent combat logging (quitting suddenly during combat like a little b***h): if you press Alt+F4, the game doesn’t immediately exit, but shows you a Quit dialog (to main menu or desktop), and there’s a lengthy countdown if you’re near hostile ships. :)

Doesn’t prevent it entirely, but I thought it was pretty crafty.

I’m in it for blood, not gold.

Sorry, Mordhau’s mêlée combat completely surpasses Mount and Blade’s for me, I tried Bannerlord but there is simply no going back.

Dwarf Fortress is my desert island game.

🤦

Let’s see some benchmarks.

You can mod games on Linux though, some just need a bit of fiddling, just look it up. Never tried Civ 6 but people say it’s possible.

I set EA to Ignore on Steam two years ago. Ubisoft too.

It’s awesome, enjoy! FYI you can assign right stick to camera control, and raise the framerate with interpolation.

Overpriced, battery not included, haptics suck compared to DualSense, face buttons get stuck sometimes (it’s clean), the cheap rubber coating started wearing and peeling after the first month of light use, triggers are squeaky and too stiff, drops bluetooth connection randomly, you need a stupid overpriced dongle for lower latency, and I just prefer the symmetrical PlayStation layout, never understood the offset sticks.

X360 launched a full year before PS3, seemed great compared to the ancient PS2. Had a rough start with the red ring of death, but it recovered and did very well. X360 sales were higher for most of the generation but PS3 eventually beat them by a small margin for the final count.

I bought an Xbox Series controller and I was shocked by how shitty it is, especially compared to the wired 360 controller I had for years. Bought a DualSense and it’s so much better in every way.

Baby Steps demo is up.

Quite the opposite.

They can’t complain because they never got my money.

He was the face of Microsoft for most of OP’s life.

Let us not forget the single most impressive feat of athleticism in the 20th century.

More Korok seeds for me! 🤷

Also you can hate Nintendo while still enjoying some of their exclusive games like Zelda and Mario.

Valheim can be completed solo, and many prefer it. There is really no pressure to play co-op if you don’t enjoy it, and you can do both in the same playthrough; co-op is seamless, friends can join your solo world (crossplatform PC and Xbox) with their existing characters, and you can join any other world with your existing characters. Some restraint is needed as this can be exploited, skipping progression by “smuggling” advanced materials and gear. There are mods to prevent this if you want.

Enemies scale in difficulty when multiple players are in proximity of each other.

You can tweak the difficulty settings on existing worlds from the main menu, no commitment. Tailor the experience to what you find enjoyable. The most common complaint is that resource gathering is a little slow solo, so you can turn up a multiplier that makes it faster if you like.

1000 hours, AMA.

Well la dee dah look at mister first world socialized healthcare over here.

Cataracts has joined the server.

Edited, cheers.

CAN YOU FEEL THE SUNSHINE?!

Pointless ad-infested article about a video, gave my phone cancer.

Here’s the video, uploaded six months ago: https://youtu.be/Bn0h05Q3OOg

BallisticNG is awesome, and so is Redout. FYI Redout and all DLC tracks is part of Fanatical’s Build Your Own Play on the Go Bundle right now, get it and two other games for 5 $/£/€: https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/build-your-own-play-on-the-go-bundle

Who knows, but 412M is pretty steep. Hope they’ve got a backup plan.

Hm, I really like the minimalism, it’s clean and easy to read. I actually think there is tremendous variety in the levels and applaud the devs for their creativity, although visually they may seem similar at first glance.

Any suggestions for playing with Steam Controller / Deck inputs? I find roguelikes difficult and sometimes frustrating to play without a keyboard, especially moving diagonally or avoiding moving multiple spaces. Keyboard allows precise inputs and often the keys are mnemonic as well (I for Inventory, M for Map, O for Open etc).

One of my favourite things in Valheim is the sailing, Sailwind sounds amazing, thanks for the recommendation!

Intentionally farting near people is gross.

Sounds interesting, looked it up and it’s already in my library, must have been in a bundle. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll try it. Check out N++, it’s an excellent platformer with thousands of levels as well as online scoreboard/replays and level creation/sharing: https://store.steampowered.com/app/230270/N_NPLUSPLUS/

Yeah I use Lastpass, it’s very useful. I’d like to switch to something FOSS and locally encrypted, but honestly I’ve tried a couple times and never got it working properly, meanwhile Lastpass always works. I hate their blinding white UI lol.
