  • It’s because these companies keep driving up production costs on their own. Their next game has to top their last. At what point do we say that graphics are good enough? Who needs these insane amount of details? Why does a game absolutely need to be 100+GB in size? Is Bloodborne not visually appealing enough? What about God of War (2018)?

    Can we not find a “good enough” acceptable baseline and just work with that? This infinite growth is annoying as both a developer and a player. Like okay, ooooh, you can render each individual hair on someone’s head and they each have their own physics. Congratulations. How’s the story for the game? Ah, broken to the point of unplayable, but you pinky swear a patch is coming.

  • She’s just doing me a favor in return by giving me direct access to my bloodstream to pour caffeine in.

  • My tabby looks up at me, meows, and flops onto her side for belly rubs when she first sees me in the morning. When she’s had her fill, she gently pushes my hand away with her back paws. It’s so cute!

  • Well if a person wanted to use Usenet to download news and totally nothing else, they would need two things - a Usenet provider and an indexer. Both cost an annual fee, but it’s less than $100.

    Newshosting for Usenet access, this gets configured in nzbget or sabnzbd as a news server. Then NZBGeek gets configured in Sonarr and Radarr as an indexer.

    Enjoy your glorious news!

  • At least there’s potential now!

  • Hypothetically, a Sonarr/Radarr/Usenet/Plex setup is looking reeeeeeeeeeeeal nice right now.

  • So how does that work? Connecting them just discharges yours and charges hers until both battery levels are more or less even?

  • If Keanu was in the studio that day, someone should have said “Silverhand, arm the nuke.”

  • “Why did you provide a perfectly logical answer to my argument I made to try to seem superior to Switch owners?”

  • I think it had a mix of dirty jokes and parodies. It’s been ages since I’ve played it.

    Hopefully someone who remembers it better can chime in, otherwise I guess I know what my weekend downtime plans are.

  • Hell, Leisure Suit Larry came out in ‘87.

  • Personally I’m still a fan of GameMaker. Pay for the tool, use the tool, pay literally nothing else even if your game is the next Minecraft.

    Downside is it’s 2D only, but that’s fine for my preferences.

  • Well that’s too bad. And porting it to another framework would be an absolute nightmare - practically an entire rebuild.

  • Seems like the request was blocked on Jul 20. Did the dev decide it’s not happening and will not happen in the future?

  • Allow me to introduce you to Screeps. You’re welcome.

  • Guess I’ll stop my current playthrough since everything is getting revamped. I want to re-experience it with a fresh character.

    But what to do? Street samurai? Knife throwing one hit kill ninja? Master of explosions? Puncher of faces, exploder of heads? Netrunner 2.0?

    The possibilities are… well, not endless, but abundant. The only gripe is that no matter what you need to spec into Technical Ability to be able to craft/upgrade the best gear. Making it pretty much mandatory if you’re minmaxing damage (to my knowledge there is no vendor that can do it for you if you lack the skills) makes it so that 14-17 points of your character are going into that stat no matter what.

  • Is that the modern equivalent of “because of some of the pixels and seeing a lot of shops in my time”?

  • I would pronounce it like Giraffe without the ra - unlike the GIF file format which is like Gift without the t.

  • I will take all your orange ones. You can have all my red ones.
