- Comment on Steamdeck or.... 5 days ago:
Definitely, but as a counterpoint it’s also much more sensible ergonomically. The Switch makes my hands hurt, the Steam Deck doesn’t.
- Comment on Nintendo reserves the right to brick your console following "unauthorised use", in bid to prevent piracy 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been pretty consistently buying Nintendo consoles, but I’m not buying this one. Not just because of this, but I challenge these assholes to brick the device I end up playing their games on.
- Comment on Silent Hill 2 (remake) now on GOG 3 weeks ago:
I presume they still haven’t fixed the traversal stutter…
- Comment on Players Have Too Many Options to Spend $80 on a Video Game 3 weeks ago:
Very rarely would I be willing to spend 60 on a game. They’re not getting 80 out of me unless they blow me while I play.
- Comment on [Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems 4 weeks ago:
I’m not blaming UE5, but I’m capable of pattern recognition. There’s a pattern of developers not fixing UE5 issues and releasing games with them still present. The fault lies with both game developers and UE developers.
- Comment on [Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems 4 weeks ago:
If somebody didn’t realize it was almost certainly going to run poorly the second it was revealed to use UE5, I wouldn’t even know what to say to them.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2: 11 Minutes of Exclusive Gameplay – IGN First 1 month ago:
No, it is boring.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 month ago:
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 1 month ago:
As long as you’re running KDE, it will feel familiar to a Windows user. I started with Kubuntu which was great until I had a system update, and it completely shat itself. Wanted to try Bazzite next, but the installer wouldn’t work properly, so I installed OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, and I’ve seen no reason to switch since.
- Comment on Junk Store: BIG update on what is next 2 months ago:
I use the Decky plugin, and paid for GOG support, but they have their work cut out for them in convincing me to pay for this. Running Heroic isn’t that much of a hassle.
- Comment on Minecraft is getting a visual overhaul you probably don't need because of all of those mods you've got installed 2 months ago:
Journalists in general have lost an unbelievable amount of credibility, and games bloggers are the bottom of the barrel.
- Comment on The System Shock 2 remaster comes out June 26th 2 months ago:
I got excited for a second until I realized it’s a remaster. Yeah, I don’t really care at that point.
- Comment on Are mods usually confusing as hell or am I just an idiot? 3 months ago:
Can’t say that I’ve ever had this issue. Usually mod authors will tell you where to install them, or package the files in a folder structure such that there is no thinking involved.
- Comment on Reviewers giving high scores to poorly optimised games really grinds my gears 3 months ago:
You just aren’t perceiving the issues that are there. SH2 stutters. That’s a fact.
- Comment on Dragon Age: The Veilguard appears to receive its final update 4 months ago:
Until they reach a threshold of consecutive disappointing results, and EA lays off the entire studio.
- Comment on Corinne Busche, director of Dragon Ave: The Veilguard, departs BioWare 4 months ago:
Bioware has been speaking the drain for years, and it’s clear the people who made it special have long since left. If I worked there, I would have already been looking for employment elsewhere because this isn’t going to last.
- Comment on Please suggest budget controllers for kaizo mario.. 5 months ago:
A decent example of a bad d-pad would be the Switch Pro Controller. Unless they’ve fixed it in a later revision, the controller has an issue with outputting diagonals when they aren’t intended.
- Comment on The Witcher 4 Recasts Ciri 5 months ago:
Ciri being a witcher is already going outside of existing lore, and it seems very unnecessary; she’s powerful enough in her own right, and shouldn’t need to be swapped 1:1 for Geralt.
- Comment on Guys, what did you buy during the Steam autumn sale? 5 months ago:
FF7 Remake. I tried a “demo” and have been waiting for a sale. It’s still more than I’d like to spend on the game, but I want to go back and continue my saved game.
- Comment on Sony reportedly prepping PlayStation 5 portable, plans to battle Nintendo's handheld dominance 5 months ago:
It’s an ongoing process.
- Comment on Veilguard Isn’t the First Dragon Age Game to Face ‘Woke’ Criticism 6 months ago:
There usually aren’t many complaints of something being woke if the product is actually good. I think the main takeaway is that nobody wants to be lectured, and told they are wrong for having a different opinion, and amateurish writing can easily come across as preachy or bring a self-insert.
- Comment on In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment? 6 months ago:
Sid Meier’s Pirates! There are so few actually good pirate games.
- Comment on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team Disbanded After Critically Lauded Platformer Fails to Meet Expectations - Report 7 months ago:
True, but even through Steam, you’re still dealing with Ubi’s launcher and Denuvo, so it’s just adding another layer on top.
- Comment on Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Team Disbanded After Critically Lauded Platformer Fails to Meet Expectations - Report 7 months ago:
I wanted to play this, but not enough to interact with their launcher and Denuvo.
- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 7 months ago:
Hell yeah. I went with Kubuntu because I figured it would be easy for a beginner to troubleshoot eventual issues, given the amount of asked-and-answered Ubuntu queries online.
- Comment on PS5 Homescreen Now Replaces Unique Video Game Art With Annoying Ads You Can’t Turn Off 7 months ago:
If you’re coming from Windows, something that runs KDE Plasma will feel very familiar.
- Comment on Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered announced for PS4 and PS5 – WGB 8 months ago:

- Comment on Ubisoft Cancels Press Previews of Assassin's Creed Shadows 8 months ago:
Inaccuracies, both historical and caused by a general lack of research. Stolen assets that they have no right to use, some of which could be considered culturally insensitive. Differences in the English and Japanese “apology” letter which make it seem like they’re disregarding the Japanese, or attempting to turn the rest of the world against them. General lack of polish.
- Comment on Leaked Nintendo Switch 2 chassis "almost certainly real," analysts say | TechSpot 8 months ago:
You can buy third party joycons that make it a lot more comfortable. The originals are tiny and make my hands hurt.
- Comment on Introducing Steam Families 8 months ago:
I really doubt they’ve got an IP lock on place; just set up a Family and invite your siblings and in-laws.
