They’re not free, you’re paying for it somehow. Still not a bad idea to have more than one though.

I know some bank tellers who say they are taught to comply with ANY robbery instructions. Even if it’s as simple as someone slipping them a note saying, “This is a robbery” with no explicit threats. If they feel comfortable, they can slip him the marked bills or dye packs, but they won’t be punished if they don’t. Get the robber out, lock the door, call the cops.
I could totally see the tellers recognizing the avocado for what it was and figuring it was on the cops to catch him, not theirs.
Because many of us remember before that, when Valve revolutionized the single player first person genre again and again with the Portal and mainline Half-Life games.
Any other dev would have capitalized on the massive interest in a sequel or at least sold off the property so someone else could have continued those franchises.
…Irish car bombs have Bailey’s Irish Cream and possibly coffee liqueur in them. Many people would say that’s a pretty sweet drink.
You sure you’re not thinking of an Irish Boilermaker? That’s just a beer with Irish whiskey.
On old gen consoles, yes. On PC, it was merely a rough launch, not the industry shattering event it was made out to be.
(First off, the last gen versions were a shit show and I fully believe CDPR should have bit the bullet and cancelled those preorders. That was a failure at the high levels, not with the devs. This is about the PC version:)
Hey yo, I’m one of those idiots that gave it a good review, and that was day one. Yeah, it had a bad launch, but I’d argue it was no worse than No Man’s Sky, or Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, or The Witcher 3. All of the above are some of my favorite games of all time.
If you don’t like the core game, cool. Agree to disagree. But the things that people love about the game now have been in there since 1.0. Sure, there are genuine criticisms to be made, but most of the hate this game got has either been patched out or was pure bandwagon hate to begin with.
There’s also the Wasteland 2/3 engine which would be a good fit. A lot of the assets from 2 would probably drop right into Fallout, given the similarity in tone and setting.
… Well, I say that, but now that I look it up, the Wasteland games used the Unity engine so… Yeah, a BG3 total conversion would be fun
This is the mouse that 30 year old boomer gamers refer to when they say, ‘They don’t make them like they used to’.
Fuck. When she mentioned the MX518, I started typing a comment about how great a mouse it was when I heard her say the above. 30 year old boomer? I’m a 37-year old millennial, dammit. Get off my virtual lawn, child.
For real though, the MX518 and G15 were an iconic pair for me. I got the G15 back when I worked IT for a game developer. I pulled it out of a tech recycling bin with the WASD keys completely worn off and probably over a million keypresses logged since it was unboxed. I used that keyboard for another million, easy.
Nowadays, I still use a G910 keyboard because I map PS scripts and Windows hotkeys to the macro buttons, but I gave up on Logitech mice because the buttons kept failing after a couple years. I’m currently using a Razer Basilisk.
3DRealms ran out of money and Gearbox bought the rights in 2010 ahead of the 2011 release, but according to Wikipedia, several of the 3DRealms developers were brought on board as a part of that process.
Duke Nukem Forever devs over in the corner hoping everyone continues to think BL3 was the worst game Gearbox ever made.
Here is the KnowYourMeme page. Note the Alternative/Minimalist Interpretations section.
I’ve played everything in the bundle outside of Gotham Knights. I get it if you don’t like fighting games, but I had fun with every one of them (besides GK, as mentioned). They are all solid games, even Mad Max.
In other words… that’s just, like, your opinion, person.
Steam recently updated to make it way easier to switch between accounts. It used to be you had to authenticate every time, which was a pain with Steam Guard. Now there’s a Change Account function which won’t invalidate your authentication token though it does seem to sign you out until you switch back.
I use that to ensure I’m not advertising certain games to the world.
In the Windows client you can right-click and hide games. Is there a way to do that in SteamOS? I only see updates for games that aren’t hidden.
I had a copy of Are You Gonna Be My Girl by Jet that would cut out and loop back in the middle of the song. I listened to it so much I could sing along without missing a beat. Then whenever I heard the right version, it always felt weird when the song flowed through normally.
I just had flashbacks to Dead State. It was a AA title written by one of the guys from Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines so I was watching it closely during development.
Suddenly, it went from EA to full release. I was surprised, but picked it up without reading many reviews.
I enjoyed the game and put maybe 15 hours into it, but then I had to move and had to pack up my PC for a few weeks. By the time I got settled and booted it up, it had gotten a massive patch which fixed a ton of bugs, filled in missing content like item descriptions and a bunch of other polish that would typically be done during pre-launch.
Meanwhile, one of the devs had gotten into a high profile pissing match with the community over accusations they had rushed it out the door. I normally try to sympathize with devs over a reactive community, but I couldn’t help feel like I got punished for buying the game at launch and experiencing those relatively non-replayable opening hours in a non-optimal (Dead) state.
