[people trying to make a change] are worse than [people who don't want to change and are uncomfortable being called out by the first group] is such an easy "unpopular" post to make

Surprised you didn't write "they're doing a disservice to their cause"

This is quite a smart solution, good job !

I admire your patience in interacting with such an obnoxious individual lol

They did a good job with their first title (as a new studio) : Weird West had a great recipe for systemic gameplay, I don't know if it sold as much as they were hoping (and reviews were okay), but they definitely have the right people to work on a spiritual successor to Arkane's hits

It's an open world survival crafting tower defense rogue like survivor like early access gacha !

From the about page it looks like it's a non profit that does not enforse or support candidates or parties, they claim to only try and work on erasing the barriers between voters and the act of voting

Graphics wise mostly, it runs okay (30 to 40 FPS), but there's some input lag because of it in some environment heavy parts

I don't know if this will get as much content as Skyrim has do far, but this is huge, I'm hoping we get to see how deep modders can go

Oh you watch the Olympics name all the medals 🤓 vibe

Yeah at this point they're basically the same thing. The important difference you have to know is that Emudeck will install emulators independently, and show them as their own games in your Steam library, whereas Retrodeck will install ES-de and only show one executable in your Steam library, from which you will launch your emulated games. It's a matter of preference.

Thanks ! Yeah, I've seen a lot of people mentioning Factorio, which I have not played yet, but I think it's an excellent choice as well considering the requirements!

I think the goal is probably to not get bored by the only 3 games available, so with that in mind :

• Skyrim would last long enough to provide entertainment within those 5 years, there's tons of replayability with mods. Witcher 3, RDR2, BG3, are good options as well.
• Then something lighter to come back to, to unwind, like Trackmania (probably United for the multi environment, or 2020 for the latest features), because the editor mode allows for potentially infinite tracks to be made and played offline on top of the official campaign tracks. Kerbal Space Program could fit those criterias too.
• And lastly, probably a rogue like that feels fresh every new run, I'm not a fan of Hades, so I'll pick Dead Cells, or Balatro, or Pyre, or... there's so many choices in that category!

Nah we're done here, have a good day

Well I mean, that specific question you're asking should have been included in your original post then, and could easily be a Google search. I'm not going to waste time doing your job of educating yourself, when I spent time to address in good faith specific points in your original post

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_socialist_states

A simple way to debunk your claims is to simply look at real life examples that show it actually exists, and hope the goalposts will not move ala "but it wasn't large scale so it doesn't count"

1 - SCOP is a type of company in France where employees are owners of the company. This is not yet socialism although it shares the philosophy/ideals. There is no hierarchy in a SCOP. Duralex, french makers of glassware just recently changed their structure to become a worker owned SCOP. Motion Twin, the company behind the game Dead Cells has been a SCOP for years. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worker_cooperative

2 - In the capitalist world it is indeed hard to emancipate from the interconnection with everyone and everything, which is why revolutionaries' main goal is to destroy capitalism. You can't envision a different type of organisation for society because capitalism has become so prevalent it tries to impose itself as the only solution. Look for smaller scale examples of autonomous, self sufficient communities, I'm not talking about uncontacted native tribes, there are, all over the world, tons of examples of small communities trying to rethink how we can restructure society away from the capital. Extrapolate from these examples and you'll have a glimpse of how this could work at a larger scale.

...yet !

What worries me is : can a bad actor reproduce whatever bug was corrupting SteamOS, and publish games on the storefront with the sole intent to mess with people?

This sounds awfully condescending but still, thanks for all those details !

Good catch thank you !
