- Comment on Sync-in, a new alternative to Nextcloud 1 week ago:
Does sync-in use file structure like Nextcloud (where the files are accessible in a standard directory structure outside of the application) or is it flat storage like Seafile/Pydio/etc?

- Comment on Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition reveal trailer 2 months ago:
NWN is one of (if not my all time) favourite game, both offline and online.
I played through the NWN2 SP campaign and thoroughly enjoyed it ( though I started and never finished the final expansion.)
The biggest disappointment for me was the changes to multiplayer that made it a lot harder to drop into servers. If I am recalling correctly, you had to pre-download (outside of the game) the meshes for landscapes before joining a server. It was a huge barrier to entry, and even dedicated communities that tried to move from 1 over to 2, faltered.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 3 months ago:
Yeah Link’s Awakening is the one that came to mind for me. Even after having beaten it, the next time I played it I would still get stuck.

Alien vs Predator 2 was peak Monolith for me.
- Comment on Nintendo Announce Virtual Game Cards (Digital Game Sharing) 4 months ago:
Family sharing I presume. I’m not entirely familiar with the scope of the service myself as I’ve only just set up family sharing with my child. But when I did, they had a huge catalog of games in their own steam account as a result.

Still not enough a reason to connect my TV to the internet.
- Comment on Steam Deck Gaming News 5 months ago:
I like the idea of RetroDeck over EmuDeck, but a couple things hold me back.
- When an emulator goes under (a la Yuzu) does it get removed from the RetroDeck package on the next update, or does the already installed emulator stay put?
- Ryujinx has been declared legacy (no longer updated) as of RetroDeck 0.9b, but a fork of the project still continues to receive updates. EmuDeck’s Ryujinx pulls from this repo, where as RetroDeck’s source is dated. Is there a way to switch over within RetroDeck?

The small horse is just getting a good sniff, and no feet isn’t unsettling.

Amazing. I will always be excited by FSO news. The Hardlight forums still send me my annual birthday email.
- Comment on The $900 Ayaneo 3 is the most exciting PC handheld the company’s yet made 6 months ago:
Which is what I mean - any way you slice it, this has 2 inputs less than the Steam Deck (I haven’t looked for the number of grip buttons on this thing).
I don’t use all the input options on every single game, but there are plenty that I do (namely shooters like Deep Rock, Helldivers, etc and macro heavy RPGs like DA Inquisition)

Dunno. Despite the swappable inputs, there is still no way to get trackpad + joystick + buttons/dpad at the same time.

If a laptop has a touchscreen, then I’m fine without a Trackpoint.
Lacking the touchscreen, I will use the Trackpoint more than the track pad.

- Comment on GOG reportedly suffering from staff turnover and poor management: “Current business model is likely running out of steam” 7 months ago:
I switch over to desktop to install new games, but that isn’t strictly necessary - you could run Heroic in game mode and install from there.
Once a game is installed through Heroic it will automatically add a shortcut (I.e. Non-Steam game) to Steam. For the shortcut to be visible, however, the Steam client needs to be restarted. This is why I switch to desktop for all my installing needs then reboot in to game mode. When playing, I never need to leave game mode.

The easy way is with the Heroic Game Launcher. Log in to your GOG account and direct install.
