Had my eye on Children of the Sun a while back. Thanks for the reminder it’s on sale, I think I’ll pick it up too.

Relax, not a real tweet

It’s less money in their pockets and more money in ours. That’s not going to be a double win in their books.

Getting Epic’s money isn’t a slam dunk for profit. You’re hedging your bets taking guaranteed Epic money for lower potential sales vs non-guaranteed Steam money for higher potential sales. Having a bad exclusivity deal on Epic and then selling your game at a loss (90% discount) on steam isn’t profiting both ways, and sometimes isn’t profiting either way.

I also disagree with the sentiment that you’re reinforcing bad behavior. If anything, you’re signalling to them that you won’t support exclusivity deals, and are happy to wait for a deep discount on Steam. Ultimately, that’s a win for consumers.

That said, fuck exclusivity deals, and I’m much in the same boat where I’m hard pressed to support developers that take them.

You can play Nintendo games on PC, with the added bonus of not giving money to that ghoulish company.

I played BotW and TotK on my PC, and let me tell you friend, with the increased frame rate, and the ability to run reshade, it looks and feels better than ever.

If something is against “national interest” and your president is trying to become an autocrat, that means they can essentially pick and choose what national interest is. This should be setting off alarm bells in EVERYONE’S head as an obvious grab for power.

I’m not american, so I don’t have direct skin in the game, but everyone on both sides of the political spectrum who don’t self identify as fascist should be against this.

If you don’t interpret this as something extremely dangerous, you need to have a sit down and really think about the implications.

It really was weirdly good.

… And there’s no place like home

Is Michelle Obama’s penis in there?

I’ll bite. What’s the proof?

I, too, have been lulled to sleep at night with my headset on by the sounds of my Factorio factory running

LOL

1080p and 4k isn’t really a fair comparison for great earbuds and shit earbuds in my opinion. The comparison there is like 4k and 480p. There is a massive difference between the 2. I have had $30 earbuds that you couldn’t listen to a podcast on, and I currently have $250+ Bose earbuds that are fucking amazing for just about everything.

Unless of course you’re saying that these earbuds are in fact “1080p” quality. In which case, fair point. I have yet to see someone who’s actually used these and commented on the sound quality though. What I’ve seen from fairphone products is they are consumer friendly at the expense of quality.

Of course it’s going to be a shit take.

I do too. I’m not blaming the weed. The OP said he had to stop smoking weed , I just agreed.

These daily doom saying threads on this website are pathetic. No more weed for you friend. Time to turn off the news and touch some grass.

Helldivers 2 with friends.

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Hadn’t played since I was much younger. Forgot how fun it was to kick everyone off ledges.

Binding of Isaac - once I figure out how to get my GOG save file on my partner’s PC to sync with my PC…

Total War: Warhammer 3. Played this one on and off. A mod I love just dropped a patch so I’m bad into it for now, until CA fucks something up again.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I liked DOS2 more than BG3. Not to say I don’t love BG3, but I love DOS2

… We’re talking about video games. People can have fun being hyper competitive or have fun being casual. I don’t know what the fuck is up with this site all this hyper dramatic “absolutist” type bullshit, as if shades of grey for any situation simply don’t exist. Damn bro. If anyone is getting self important, it’s you writing this comment.

Don’t even get me fuckin started on the professional athletes bit, Jesus Christ

Maybe they can see you 👀
