  • I feel like a guide site is very likely to get scraped up by AI. People just typing in "How to repair buildings in Worshippers of Cthulhu" and getting their answer without ever knowing who wrote it out originally. I hope the best for them. I think it's a cool endeavor.

  • I got to play D&D in my first meaningful multi-session way this year.

    I loved how much I got tossed around for trying to use tricks and the like instead of combat.

    We also did a one-shot of Alien. I crashed the ship right away, failing like 5 roles to ease the damage, and then in our first encounter died to shrapnel while hiding in a bush. A player left early so I took theirs over and was the only player to die at all, and twice.

    I love a DM who isn't pushing me to fail but also isn't going to have the NPCs not take logical steps. It was some of the most fun I've had.

  • When I switched, I got the whole setup you describe. Even special soap from etsy. It was too much of a ritual.

    Between simple blades and an electric, I'm good and it's pretty fast as long as I keep up with it.

    I did do dollar shave for a little bit and it was okay. But this is an easier version of set it and forget it. Like you said, it's pretty cheap.

  • I'll try it when it comes out. I really got hooked by Warhammer Online mostly until it closed (now alive again).

    I never backed it, but I never felt Jacob's as anyone bad. He put his own money in and I believe they did considerable refunds after a while. Maybe a bit misguided with whatever that spinoff game was. Warhammer Online tried the same thing after he had already left, with Wrath of Heroes.

    If it is fun PvP, I'll be there. I hope they popularize something new again. I feel like many games have some version of public quests now.

  • I would be extremely surprised if they don't find a way to get more money out of it. Cosmetics for sure. Perhaps quests at some point. I feel like full expansions are kinda dead though and certainly out of scope, as isn't just the normal game in an Unreal 5 wrapping?

    I play ESO, and love it, but I have been shaken down too aggressively to trust.

  • Oblivion has my heart, but I'm not super interested in this. So far some of the visual choices look less inspired than the original take, and I don't just mean the yellow filter. The dryad went from other worlds to person with a dryad skin equipped.

    I'm more interested in the Skyblivion mod. It feels more like it improves upon what was there and has some cool deviations of its own.

  • I've played the first Mirrors Edge to like 75% maybe three times over the years since it released. I just started downloading the second today. Do you think it is ill advised to skip the last quarter of the first? It has been a while since I played it and I feel like I would burn out again.

    Great game. I think it's me.

  • Interesting that the District 9 director is involved with the parent company.

    I thought Game Informer had some cool stuff. I really liked the second opinion on reviews, that tiny box inside the full review. It was fun to pick a side when they were at odds.

  • I am trying Floorp as of yesterday. I like Zen Browser, but their github contributers list makes it look like it's mostly the effort of one person and that always gives me pause until somethings been around a while. Floorp seemed more spread out so I decided to try it despite its silly name.

    I'm interested in how ladybird shapes up.

    Worth noting that you may have DRM issues on some forks with video content. I don't think you will on Linux, and someone clear this if you can, but I think the alternate used can't do 4k video? I'm not a big web media consumer so idk. Has something to do with Widevine I think.

  • Is this a good thing? Wasn't this the number the Dead Space remake had when they called it a financial failure? I'm not sure what the team sizes or expectations were like for each. I'm hoping someone with more know can say something to give 2mil context.

  • Linux Gaming @lemmy.world

    How do you switch window focus while gaming?
