Aesthetics are part of the game. Vibe is a big part.

I come from a time where we all lost our shit over horse armor being sold. Your comment just reminds me they have normalized things. They won.

The guy who made the Backblaze software said it was already done and was easy for their standard client to work with Linux but never got rolled out because Linux users are power users. I wonder if that is the real reason when it comes to Proton. It’s not unlimited but maybe there is some power user use that they anticipate and don’t want to deal with.

I never got to play the original, but I remember it had more character in its trailers.

I really like the art style and animations. I like the soft-touched looks to things and the unique characters.

I recently encountered a song I could only stream but not buy anywhere without DRM. Kinda wild because it has over 5 million YouTube views.

If anyone knows how the buy Slow Song by The Knocks, lmk.

The bastards barely started selling it a few years ago. I feel like some responsibility should exist. It isn’t a company that is going under, so it shouldn’t be able to just casually kill the devices tied-service it only recently sold.

Do you know if you can just pay the difference to upgrade from simple to unlimited? I’m pretty sure I will gobble the 300 searches but they claim that 99% of people do not.

Did you ever play the first Divinity?

It looks more like multiple companies were needed to pin the individual. I don’t expect any company to not comply with legal requests. My understanding is this is why it’s important to know what information a company retains.

For my own use, I have used Proton just to mitigate being a source of ad info and to get better service. I’m not interesting enough to overthrow anything.

That seems weirder to me to be honest. Like the recent The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria. Just call if Return to Moria and make a LotR badge for marketings sake. Same here.

I’ll accept Middle-Earth though.

I know little about it. What makes this stand out? I am guessing kernal level, but is there anything else to it?

All of my local gyms in my last 3 areas have been super pricy. Like $75-$150 a month. It may not seem high, but when you can get a franchise membership for $10-$30, it’s a hard sale.

I have had luck with specialty stuff though. Yoga is common to have discounts and decent pricing if that’s anyone’s jam.

This is neat. I would have loved to have played some of these alongside what I did on the 360. Feels similar. Marble Blast Ultra, Geometry Wars, etc. I had no idea either.

This looks fun. Thanks for the share.

You can grind for great rewards but they also are encouraging easy endeavors for a lot of points and any content is giving the 100% XP bonus which makes even questing feel nicer. There is a grind if you want true flame or one of the other 4 this-time-only items but that’s some people’s enjoyment.

The only ball dropping imo is the PTS debacle but they are giving the affected all the items, like a years endeavors, and a ton of other stuff that seems fair to me.

I think it can be hard for someone if they always feel the need to maximize anything they do, they probably just grind the whole time to earn millions of gold. I did a few grinds to get the loot high but doing dailies I had not tried yet has been fun since I get the 100%xp and an extra loot box for each.

Obviously just my experience though.

I like the idea, but the execution looks cheap. I’m more open to middle earth games without fighting than with though so I won’t lament the IP yet. It often feels hamfisted to force it into the slashy-casty box.

Is € 251.88 the estimated loss in revenue? I would like to say that it only makes sense if you assume the user will be on the platform either way, instead of just not paying and leaving. However, my experience with others makes me believe they will take whatever option to get to what they want.

I think it’s a situation for policy but, at least here in the US, our policy makers aren’t in the ethical or learned position to be effective.

What I’m saying is, the boat has holes and I’m concerned.

If they are working on 5 sequels, two are Homeworld and Borderlands, that means there is a non-zero chance for Duke Nukem.

ESO Financials were part of the Microsoft leak. They do pretty dang well. Downward trend but what ten year old game constantly only sees number go up.
