I haven’t purchased anything in months because my job pays badly, and fuck this capitalist hellscape, but if I was going to buy more games steam is the most likely source. Linux support, cloud saves, game recording, remote play, fairly unobtrusive client, drm at the seller’s discretion.
Agree with the other poster - too open is a net negative. There’s like 3 games I don’t want to play for 1 game I do.
There’s an RPG meetup I go to sometimes. They list some games on their blurbs so people know it’s not just a DND hangout.
Personally I would want to know what kind of games. There’s a wide range. Monopoly? Catan? A six hour indie extravaganza? Same with cards and video games. Like I would go to a sekiro tournament but avoid a CoD thing.
If Sony just sold games on more platforms…
I should look into matrix. I have a small group of nerds in my group. need video, voice, text, and image sharing. A dice bot is nice, too.
Microsoft should be split up, at the very least. I’d also like to see the leadership stripped of their wealth and the company handed over to the workers.
Fortunately someone already did a lot of the work for you. That’s one of the mods I consider mandatory for every playthrough and lets you freely tweak a tons of rules.
Oh yeah, the last time I replayed the games I used that. I had some sort of dwarf berserker that was pretty strong, until the end game where being angry wasn’t enough.
Wonder if getting it to work on linux is trivial… Someone did a writeup at least: https://moebiusproject.gitlab.io/mods_on_linux
I feel like you’d rapidly cross a point of having changed so many rules, you just have a different game with the same story. Which is maybe fine, but at that point maybe just make your own story too.
I’d end up changing like every piece of the rules system if I tried to make it more to my taste.
Loved the game as a child. Really struggle with the rule system now.
The combat is kind of shallow. There’s a lot of tedious kiting, or just rolling the dice and waiting.
The sense of wonder was pretty top notch though.
Y tho
I like to say, half joking, that no one should be allowed to hold high ranking offices if they can’t win every victory condition in civilization.
What do you mean, let Ubisoft die? That’s not the presidents decision to make.
I don’t know about france specifically, but in general the state has many options to prop up a failing capitalist endeavor.
I’ve had several girlfriends who were like “you play video games? Like… <worried expression> call of duty?”
They were all relieved when I was like no.
Less relieved when I got them to play cuphead co-op.
Business Idiots. It’s a pervasive problem. The people making decisions are not the people doing labor. They’re often so far removed from normal life, that they can’t even relate to regular humans anymore. How is some asshole with a full time personal assistant and high six figure salary supposed to relate to someone making median income and renting with 2 housemates?
Fuck 'em. Labor should take back what it built.
Prices are up. Wages are not. Video games are luxury.
We’re being fucked by the stupid rich.
Crawl: Stone Soup is an excellent traditional roguelike. No metagame. Every run is independent (aside from occasionally running into ghosts of past characters, but those have been way toned down in recent versions)
The biggest threat is hubris and inattention. I lose a lot of characters from stubbornly just attacking them instead of actually using resources.
I also don’t have a lot of money for fun because no one is hiring because all the psychotic C-suite think AI is going to replace everyone. Or they think they can just squeeze labor harder and use AI as an excuse.
But either way, fuck Microsoft.
Microsoft should be broken up. A lot of problems go away if we just stop letting power consolidate.
Exactly the meme that came to mind. Notch turned out to be such a disappointment
That worked for me fine on Linux (pop!_os). Remake worked on the steam deck, too.
