- Comment on Just months after reportedly cancelling two live service games in development, Sony announces a new PlayStation studio with a live service game in development 6 hours ago:
But then, why do they keep canceling them before release? They don’t know if they’d have been hits or failures.

“Inflation decreases” means “the prices are being raised slower”.
What you are looking for, prices going down, is “deflation”. Governments generally do their best to avoid that, because people would start holding off on purchases expecting lower prices next week, month, quarter,… and it would tank the economy.
- Comment on Do you think Square Enix should remake other Final Fantasy entries? 1 week ago:
Plenty of people will never experience these worlds or stories due to the turn-based combat
What? No! If anything they should make new original FF games with decent turn based combat again! X was the last good one, it’s time.

I’m going to take a look at that.
- Comment on 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux? 4 weeks ago:
I am hoping that the upcoming SteamOS Desktop would make Linux friendly enough for games that aren’t native to Steam, such as my GOG collection
You can just add those to steam or use a launcher like heroic.

- Comment on Anon takes an exam 4 weeks ago:
That, and also when the questions require actual understanding instead of memorized knowledge.
Also, our professors tended to make open book exams so tight on time that you couldn’t realistically look most things up.

It doesn’t really matter if it’s medically safe. It’s just disgraceful.

Properly made open book exams are not easier. The opposite.

- Comment on Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! 1 month ago:
Baldur’s Gate 2. There’s no game I’ve played through more often. BG3 is a very fun successor, but Larian’s writing can’t hold a candle to classic Bioware.
- Comment on Steam Deck Gaming News 2 months ago:
Thank you for doing this. I particularly like the GOG part as I usually prefer to buy from them. Most of the Linux gaming advice and news out there is catered to the majority of 100% steam users though.

So, let me get this right, there’s been a shit storm about… A slightly different haircut?? They couldn’t even find a boob or butt that looks smaller than before?

Looks fine to me.
- Comment on The PlayStation Network outage proves PC gamers were right to resist its mandatory sign-in requirement 2 months ago:
If steam goes under, a significant portion of your steam games won’t launch anymore, period. If GOG goes under, you can still use 100% of their installers, provided you still have them backed up. No, they are not going to be able to do that step for you. Did the store you bought physical games from put your discs in storage for you, so they wouldn’t clog up your basement? Did they give you a new copy if you lost or threw out your disc and then changed your mind?

I’m still using that 1080Ti and currently see no reason to upgrade.

Apple does benefit from tech illiterate customers buying a new iPhone instead.

If I could just download right from the Website
You can.

But then, my steam link could already do that.
- Comment on The $700 price tag isn’t hurting PS5 Pro’s early sales 4 months ago:
I’m by no means talking about AAA latest and greatest. I tried Everspace 2 and Visions of Mana. Both need considerable tuning down, after which Everspace manages a fluid experience, while VoM still stutters while looking horrible. I haven’t dared to even try the likes of Witcher 3 (which people are talking about playing on the deck). I’ll probably stick with pixel art etc for TV mode, and go back to the ps5 for more demanding things.
- Comment on The $700 price tag isn’t hurting PS5 Pro’s early sales 4 months ago:
You mean on the small screen, right?
People’s use cases seem to be wildly different from mine. I mainly use it in TV mode as a couch gaming machine. For most modern 3d games you have to turn graphics quality down substantially that way.

I played Witcher 3 day one and have no idea what you’re talking about.
- Comment on Exodus, the new game being led by BioWare veteran James Ohlen, finally reveals some gameplay, and boy it sure looks like Mass Effect 4 months ago:
but I’m back to feeling rather ambivalent about the whole thing, which to my eye looks like nothing so much as an alt-universe Mass Effect.
And that’s supposed to be a bad thing?
More Mass Effect is always a win in my book.

That must be why it’s still advised to not collect and eat wild mushrooms in parts of southern Germany.

Until something goes wrong and it is not safe and controlled anymore. You know, because of the whole exponential chain reaction thing.
