Maybe some people just don’t like grinding for hours and hours to replace stuff they already acquired in a video game.

Personally, I would rather that we have a variety of different game types and options. There aren’t very many MMOs that make death feel meaningful. If it’s not your type of game, then don’t play it.

Here’s another win for Steam:

Subnautica has a multiplayer mod, but it only works with an older version of the game. Steam lets you downgrade the version, Epic games does not.

Well, apperently I’ve been misusing the term “Deckbuilder” for a while. TIL. Thanks!

When did “deckbuilder” stop applying to TCGs? Isn’t that the original definition of a deckbuilder game?

I can’t think of any off the top of my head, but a quick search leads to some titles like:

Shapebreaker - Tower Defense Deckbuilder https://steamcommunity.com/app/1924010

Actual card battle games like Magic the Gathering.

Or deckbuilding like those castle/turret defense games.

I’d have to agree with @iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works, I’ve never been a fan of roguelike games where your next move/ability is left up to what you draw from your deck next.

I’m definitely looking forward to this game.

It’s looking good from what I’ve seen so far.

Are we able to vote for the same person again on the next day (after the 24hour cooldown)?

Well unless you did sunday driving… And put weapons on your car so you could go around demolishing the buildings you had built up in Sim City.

It’s not an easy answer, but the best way I’ve found so far is to use GrayJay.

If I find that one of the content creators I follow on YouTube happen to post their content on any other platform, I switch my subscription to that platform.

Besides YouTube they support Nebula, Twitch, Odysee, PeerTube, Dailymotion, Bitchute, Kick, BiliBili, Rumble, Patreon, and more.

Hmmm, time to find an app that can let me schedule a future comment then… Thanks!

Oh, awesome, I thought we had to pm it to the bot to give it to a commenter. Thanks!

Does your vote get reset exactly 24 hours after your last vote, or is it reset midnight UTC time?

Thanks for putting this together!

It looks like a lot of people are attempting to use it on comments instead of a direct reply to the post, while expecting it to go to the commenter.

Can we get a confirmation from the bot of who the vote is going to?

Banning cheaters in games is TIGHT!!!

No problem. Unfortunately the prompt for an application being denied access usually only shows up when the game first creates a save point. So you might have to get just far enough until the game saves to trigger it.

Issues like that are usually related to windows security settings which block applications from modifying the contents of user specific folders.

If a game likes to write save files to those locations and you have enabled ransomware protection, you’ll need to allow an exception for it:

Go to Windows Security -> Protection History -> Protected folder access blocked (look for the game’s executable in this list) -> Actions -> Allow on Device

I doubt it would work well, but with enough training data it would be able to pick up on some areas. Especially if there are large landmarks in the frame (mountains/hills/rivers, etc.).

One interesting alternative would be the Visual Positioning System (VPS) that Niantic has built from Pokemon go player data. Basically you can take a picture outside and your phone will know exactly where you are:

Too bad they’re getting close to being bought out by a company that’s notorious for squeezing out every penny from their player base.

Edit: Correction, Pokemon Go is being bought from Niantic… The company itself is not being bought.
