Somebody make this into a free game on steam with some dumb achievements and being able to change the colour of the nub if you do it 100 times or something.

Thank you for reminding me. I went ahead and tossed it out just now.

Not sure how recent we’re talking but within the last year or so my 2 biggest disappointments have been once human and nightingale. I can usually work around jank and weird creative decisions, but unfortunately neither of these two were worth any of the time I’ve spent playing em since they felt like they didn’t seem to want you to progress.

Played once human for about 3 days, nightingale for around 3 hours and then refunded.

And tarkov isn’t even on steam… yet?

Look Outside just had a major 2.0 patch. Solid horror game. And it’s 30% off at the moment.

Both? Both. Both is good.

Launched the other day if you want to throw a bit of money to their cause

Releases in like 22 hours from the time of this comment!

According to the flowchart there, cachyOS or bazzite, also some other tools and recommendations, good luck!

Isn’t mint based on Ubuntu? So that should work without a hitch for you. Worst case just boot into the live usb without installing it directly and just try it there.

As for me, I dual boot on separate drives because I have specific software that requires windows sometimes. Otherwise it’s primarily Linux on all machines in the house.

Steam is fine, for the most part, but steam is also DRM. Personally I opt to buy games on GoG, because whatever releases there, you can download the installer and play offline, anywhere, anytime, and due to the platform requirements it strips a lot of the extra nonsense of requiring accounts and launchers and such.

The one downside is some publishers/developers don’t have the latest version on there or release on there later as definitive builds, but it’s better than having to deal with all that nonsense to begin with.

For M$ to subsidize some of the cost of the hardware seeing how it’s their “next leap” for the Xbox? Or something along those lines.

I’d like my sidebar menu back

Good resource for those needing a bit of convincing and/or hand holding.

I’m not sure steam deck would even be considered “high cost” since you can get a refurbished unit directly from steam for about half the price of a switch 2.

And even a brand new one is still cheaper.

Plus there are parts and instructions available on how to fix and replace pieces yourself should that ever be needed, unlike some drift issues from Nintendo’s controllers where they basically tell you to spend more money or get bent.

It’s a form of self care.

I don’t get paid enough to care about other people or my employer so instead I’m conserving my energy to take care of me and the things I care for.

Looks fine on voyager over here

Almost 100 billion revenue last year.

250 million of 100 billion is what… 0.25%?

Yeah. That’s nothing to them.

Cancel and try to redeem again, I sometimes end up in the dumb loop for no reason as well.
