It’s an interesting scenario.

I’d posit that the possibility mostly depends on the aquisition of RAM by Valve before the memory market implosion.

If Valve is able to successfully sell Steam Machines then other SIs and manufacturers might revisit the gaming market.


Based on Micron’s action of exiting the consumer market (by killing off their Crucial division) I’d imagine that most manufaturers are considering doing the same as the demand from AI hyperscalers has become obnoxiously enticing for most corporate entities.

Looking into this it seems that lootboxes aren’t banned in the sense that would benefit the industry and players as a whole and will instead incentivize game developers and platforms to create age verification systems.

Brazil had the chance to outright ban lootboxes full stop and the fact that they didn’t take it is really disappointing.

Mine was Mike Klubnika before Buckshot Roulette.

I was absolutely stunned and shocked to my core after experiencing Infineural, Concrete Tremor, Tartarus Engine.

Now that they’ve become a mainstream indie dev I gotta dig for new devs to add to my list :D


I’m still going through the vid while doing stuff in the background but essentially:

  • Moonie is pointing out that SKG and the way that they worded/phrased the initiative might seem sematicy to the layman but is highly strategic as is required in order for the best potential outcomes.

There’s a ton I’m leaving out but someone can probably explain better than I currently can.

Sorry it wasn’t really a TLDW, currently I’m busy but I didn’t want to leave anyone hanging as this is also important to me🫡

Persoanlly it feels like Riaz/Longdue Games was trying to unreasonably coerce and then pressure Argo into signing away all IP and rights related to announcing a new game studio for the sake of trying to poach Disco Elysium’s prior fans.


I’ll have to see if this feeling holds up after I review the back and forth a couple of times but so far to me Riaz is pulling some shady toxic moves. I personally wouldn’t feel comfortable being in the same country as that guy.

Tap for spoiler

I think this is a collection of indie game releases with Mike Klubnika being the host/presentor?

  • Mike Klubnika known for Buckshot Roulette, Tartarus Engine, and recently s.p.l.i.t.

Nothing stopping kids from making games within Minecraft

You'll want a PCIe 3.0 NVME drive at minimum for an optimal gaming experience. Anything beyond PCIe 4.0 is excessive and is a poor use of your money. 2. SATA SSDs are still viable but on the cusp of unplayable. 3. And lastly no one should game on a HDD/harddrive as the performance is beyond abysmal.

To blow this can of worms fully open I’d be interested in seeing what games were delisted


AYYYYY🤙🤙

I’m so glad s.p.l.i.t’s getting more coverage as it’s a pretty sick game from yet again the now famed horror gamedev Mike Klubnika

I actually recently made some parts recommendations here on the Fediverse

So if you’d like, using ca.pcpartpicker.com you can share your current pc build to Build A PC and I’d be happy to help you make informed Gaming PC upgrading recommendations🤗


👍 Not sure if it worked though, on Voyager the post still shows up without the thumbnail🤔

Well anyways, hope it works for your future posts🍀👍

In comparison the 5070 Ti saw just a 2½% improvement." - Steve Walton from Hardware Unboxed. 4K results shows the 5070 Ti and the 9070 XT performance matching neck and neck. 1. On review day the 5070 Ti was 2% faster, but now the 9070 XT is 3% faster than the 5070 Ti. 2. With the 9070 XT being $150 CAD or ~30% cheaper (in US and AU) than the 5070 Ti, the 9070 XT wins out in being the better value buy.
