I've seen this pop up on websites a lot lately. Usually it takes a few seconds to load the website but there have been occasions where it seemed to hang as it was stuck on that screen for minutes and I ended up closing my browser tab because the website just wouldn't load.

Is this a (known) issue or is it intended to be like this?

I looooved Simon The Sorcerer so much as a child! One of my favourite point and click adventures.

Ah that clarifies a lot actually. I do miss the days where I'd go to a store and buy a physical copy of a game. Then again, they do end up taking up (physical) space of course.

Not sure how it works nowadays, actually! As a child I would borrow PC and PlayStation games from the library. They were physical copies of course. But with Steam keys and all I'm not sure!

So the game was abandoned? That's too bad! I was considering buying it once it got more features (since it was still in early access)but wasn't 100% sure yet. I ended up getting Foundry at the time but still wanted to try Techtonica at some point.

Oh so you can't buy the physical copy of game for Switch 2? That's lame.

It looks super fun to play in co-op!

I was going to say exactly this. When I have to take a break from exercising and need to get back to it it's not easy, but I remind myself of all the benefits that come with exercising and how much better it made me feel and that gives me the motivation to get started again. The easiest way for me to force myself to exercise on a day I really don't feel motivated to do it (or I've been out of it for a while) is by putting on my sport outfit and readying whatever I need for my exercises, telling myself I can still change my mind and not do it whenever I want. But by the time I got changed and everything is ready I think "I might as well just do it".

And it just really takes that one time to fully remind myself of how good it feels afterwards and it gives me the motivation to keep going. Sometimes I'll end up enjoying it so much I can't wait for my next exercise session and no, it's not the actual exercising myself I enjoy, but how I feel afterwards.

This is rather disappointing. The game looks really good and I've been looking forward to playing it. But I meant to play the game in co-op with my husband and when it launched in early access it didn't seem to have co-op yet (if I remember correctly) so I decided to wait until that was added (and working of course). But after hearing this news I'm a bit wary of buying a game that I'm not sure they'll even finish. That's such a shame because the game really looks amazing and super fun to play in co-op.

(What's the state of the game right now? Have they added co-op yet and how is the game so far?)

Why would it make you a bad person? You might live to be 90 and you could have 40 good years with your kid. There are young parents who die young as well, so I don't see how that would be a problem.

Thanks for the tips! I'll have a look!

Haha, to be honest it took me a bit to figure out you might have meant nephew. XD I must admit I even looked it up to see if there was a different meaning to the word that I didn't know about. :'-)

Thanks for the tips. I do vaguely remember seeing a setting somewhere but I think I'll need to look into it more when I'm more awake (it's past midnight here).

Isn't neoprene a synthetic material?

My husband also uses the power button to power off his PC. I didn't even know it was a thing until he asked me to do it for him at some point and I was very confused. He's on Windows. I didn't know this worked on Linux as well (though I know it's a thing on laptops). Is there a way to configure what it does (on PC) like it does on laptops?

People don't do this? Sitting in dirty water for a period of time doesn't make me feel any cleaner.

That actually does sound fun!

It's a Shiba Inu.

How is Avowed? Is it good? I loved the Fable games.

There is a mod that allows for unlimited saving without the need to use Saviour Schnapps to save. When the game was first release the only way to save was by sleeping in certain beds, after quest progress and by manually saving using Saviour Schapps. They later added a quit and save option which I think should've been in the game since the beginning. Because back then I'd often lose progress when I didn't have Saviour Schnapps or the ingredients to make them, and I didn't have a bed nearby. So that kind of ruined the experience for me. With the Unlimited Saves mod, though, you can save anytime you want just like in other games.

Gear doesn't break that often, and you can buy repair kits that have X uses and you can use those to repair your gear anytime. :)

I can't see what's on the screen with shaky camerawork like this. :)

You may need to install steam-devices to get controller support to work.
