I don’t see a problem at all, you just have an option to swap “OR” with “AND” as the search operand

and TGA don’t set any because they don’t take their jobs seriously

Jesus fucking Christ people, we are talking about video games. Get a grip.

Gamers make me embarrassed to enjoy video games

Room

Best game ever.

Oh hai Mark

Was going to say Animal Well. Amazing game

The only streaming service I still pay for besides Prime (which has gotten so bad with ads that I’m just about done with them)

I think they just put the main segment on yt, unless they changed that recently

World of Horror is pretty awesome, but I don’t think I would ever really lump it together with first person dungeon crawlers like Wizardry or Grimrock

I’m aware. Where did anyone in this discussion do anything remotely similar to that?

I doubt it. The dev puts out slop garbage.

Lol what?

As like 3000 other comments here have explained, Valve has a zero tolerance policy for what they consider CSAM, meaning they will not reconsider. Which is their prerogative.

You’ve fabricated a straw man, and appear to be furious at it

Insulin in the US?

Bummer… And yeah, it is, I put a ton of hours into it in PS4 remote streaming to my Deck

Yeah it was rereleased on Switch. Could probably emulate it if you really wanted but yeah dunno if it’s worth the effort

As a Linux user who is forced to use 11 for work, it’s awful. Everything is super slow and laggy. Sometimes the left panel of the file explorer just doesn’t load and I have to exit and reopen. And that’s just after a couple of weeks of using it.

It shouldn’t take 30 seconds to open explorer

Have you played Tokyo Mirage Sessions?

Weird game in general, but some of my favorite turn based combat ever. I think you permanently learn abilities from weapons if I recall.

Sekiro

I think the last game I played that did it was Smash Bros Ultimate, and that’s barely a fighting game imo

Check out Unicorn Overlord (I know, awful name).

Definitely a different kind of game than FF12, but the way the combat works reminds me quite a bit of gambits. Really fun game too, with beautiful art style.

I don’t strictly adhere to it or anything, but I think it’s a good reminder sometimes when I balk at the price of a new game that I’m liable to spend hundreds of hours playing.

Agree 100%. Played Dispatch last week and had a blast. Very short, but worth the money imo

People spend like $20 to watch a 2 hour movie, $1/hr isn’t that unreasonable

Do they have any kind of profit sharing program?

I’d be kind of pissed if I worked there and made like $70k or whatever, only to read this shit.

Like half of this article is weirdly about Pink Floyd lol

Yeah when it’s done well and part of the aesthetic, it’s different.

Labyrinth of the Demon King is another one that comes to mind.

Yeah I tried playing Dispatch on my TV in 4k, and it sounded and felt like my laptop was going to catch on fire.

Lowered the TVs resolution to 1080p, and the game looks exactly the same and the fans barely even turn on.

That could be an optimization issue though I guess.

Some modern games look like absolute dirty brown water trash when you lower the settings a ton

If it’s the latter, at least it’s self deprecating

Sure thing, bud

Ugh. Why are people like this?

You can install Windows on the Steam Deck (psychos), so I imagine it’ll be like that.

You have yet to add a single bit of value to this exchange. Hope you have a good weekend.

I wasn’t referring to Goop the company, I was referring to this: https://decibelics.com/klon-guide/

The creator of the pedal covered the circuitboard in some type of tar or something to prevent people from copying the circuit (it’s pretty trivial to do with analog guitar pedals).

Anyway, I can see that you have no interest in considering that you might be wrong here… If you haven’t messed with a Steam Deck, I suggest you check it out. Because it’s literally just a Linux PC in a handheld form factor. You can avoid Steam altogether on it if you want.

No billionaire is your friend.

What exactly do you think my argument is? I think Gabe is a pos for having multiple yachts. It’s absurd.

However, I have eyes and a brain, and I have seen how he runs the company.

I’m honestly not sure what you’re trying to say with the first part.

They literally cannot lock down the hardware if they wanted. If they decided to do it before the thing is even released, they’re guaranteeing that it will bomb, and there will be people who crack it immediately.

Unless they pull a Klon and coat the boards in black goop or some shit. Not happening any time soon from Valve.

Oh I’m wrong? Show me even 3 Android “distros” that were mature and stable before Android hardware existed. Let alone hundreds.

The only way Valve even TRIES to ever do what you’re suggesting is when Gabe dies and the company goes public. Knowing gamers, I doubt they’d be able to even do it. It would be jail broken the day it was released.

It’s just not currently the ethos of the company. Anyone who has used a Steam Deck knows this.

It’s just not even comparable in any way, regardless of how you try to shoehorn it into your analogy. Android was not a mature, stable OS with hundreds of distributions, for several decades, before Android phones came along.

You’re right, that’s why there’s countless mature Android distributions to choose from, and they’re all free. Oh wait.

I don’t really know much about AOSP, but isn’t the fact that it doesn’t contain any of the proprietary Google stuff mean that the “sideloading” restrictions likely will not apply? How could it?

The same cannot be said about Android. I think you need to educate yourself on what Linux and FOSS actually is.
