Then they'd have a harder time charging $2/month for it.

Yeah same, 1953 looks legitimately great in both vertical and horizontal orientations. I love that the shape that the star lays on kinda looks like Minnesota itself.

F29 is a distant second, but everything else is even further behind, imo

I think that they are looking for a resume builder, but I have no idea why AI would be involved.

Facts, it's a disgrace to the league to make it a blanket ban in order to cuddle the few homophobes

And the character says it so fucking often

Pirates get a better experience than paying customers with old Ubisoft games

Because they don't have to use Uplay

How likely do we think this is to be the interop format that the big name messaging apps use to support that EU regulation to allow cross app messaging?

Enough water in the atmosphere makes us wet.

I never watched the show, but I saw this video on the first episode a few months back and it made me feel like I wasn't missing out on anything at all.

But it's not "every validator has one HDD". It's "you can establish an out-sized representation of the swarm by spawning more processes with more storage".

The pressure doesn't come from one person mining at home, it comes from organized groups trying to intentionally game the system.

The problem is a matter of numbers. If every enemy is trying to shove me off a cliff, they shouldn't also be able to do damage.

Regardless of that though, your last sentence seems to be implying that the player should have just not positioned themselves that way, but I regret to inform you that there are a lot of fights where you don't control everyone on your side. I save-scummed a fight three times because my ally spent his first turn every single time running straight into combat and standing on a peninsula surrounded on three sides by lava.

People literally beeline my casters and shove them every fight that I don't stack them behind front-liners. Maybe it's a difficulty thing?

It's also super fight-dependent because the only reason to use shove is if you can push someone into something. If it's just a fight in an open field there's no use.

Though it is a super easy way to just try to get away free from a AoO from a melee person in range. The action economy is supposed to be "if I don't want to take an AoO and can't teleport, then I have to Disengage and that's my action", but now they can try a shove for "free" and if it works they can move freely and still attack.

I don't know what this article says because I didn't read it to be honest, but every prediction I've read (I live in Florida so I'm paying attention to it) has said that the storm is expected to be Cat1 or Cat2 when it lands.

Thunderclap requires a spell slot and isn't a bonus action. Part of the problem is that every enemy gets to do their full attack, and then go ahead and try a shove just to see if it works for funsies.

If shoves work to the way that they do in d&d, then an enemy going for a shove and failing would mean that they had done nothing on their turn and that you would be net-positive on the round. That doesn't happen in this game because they get to have their cake and eat it too by getting to make an attack and a shove in the same turn.

As a programmer, the biggest problem I have with crypto is that it adds an (I believe) unnecessary pressure on either compute (for proof of work) or storage (for proof of stake) prices for everyone else in the world, for what is seemingly not a huge gain.

Proof of work in particular is awful, because one of the biggest problems that we actually have in the real world is global warming and adding a financial incentive to using more power is exactly the wrong direction we need to be going in. I realize that a lot of crypto is moving away from proof of work, but it's still there.

You say "besides the technical issues" as if that was something small enough that you can just casually brush it aside. Andromeda performed like absolute trash when it came out, and that was a huge reason why people panned it.

As for the story reasons you highlight, I don't agree with most of them personally, but they're subjective so that's on you.

The technical state that Andromeda released in is the biggest reason why I consider it an absolutely trash game.

Sony for one. My Xperia One III (a fucking $1300 or whatever flagship) comes with a completely uninstallable Facebook apk

Inquisition was a downturn from DA2 but it was nowhere near as bad as Andromeda or Anthem. Dragon Age was the property they had that they hadn't messed up yet, so if Dreadwolf is bad then we're down to 0.

That's true for sure, but that doesn't mean that it's valve didn't do an absolute fuckload of work to get proton to be actually functional.

Getting direct3d and vulkan working with actually useful performance was the turning point for Wine being useful for games in addition to just standard applications.

They definitely spent an ass-load of money on that and the fact that Wine was around for 25 years before that just goes to show that no one else was willing to do that.

If you're talking about Chris Pratt and Tom Holland, why would you pick "Uncharted" to use as your contact point for Tom Holland instead of fucking Spider-Man?

E: This is targeted at whoever wrote the title for Eurogamer of course
