Of each set of 3, you can only have one marked as most wanted and one marked as least wanted. You will leave one statement blank.

I agree with you, but using Final Fantasy XIV is a weak example. Steam is one of the smallest platforms it’s on, with most PC players using the non-steam launcher.
As an MMO, it also has the benefit of players being able to see a ton of other people when they log in and the fan base talks about it enough that you never get that “whatever happened to that game” feeling.
Honestly, I think it’s that last thing that drives most of the dead game talk. Some games come out with tons of hype and then you stop hearing about it as much. Instead of looking up what’s going on, people just assume it flopped and no one plays anymore. Or it’s a game they wish had failed and by saying dead game they are trying to will that belief into existence, depends on the context.
Its pretty easy to find a dark age for pc gaming. There was a period of time, during the PS3/Xbox 360 era, where publishers were writing off PC as a platform. There were tons of console exclusives and the games that did hit PC were often bad console ports.
Still even in that period, there were PC games for people to play. If you were following game trends or interested in most of the games shown off at E3 those years then it was a dark age. If you were playing World of Warcraft or Team Fortress 2, you probably didn’t notice.
Yeah, I didn’t have a problem reading it. The most awkward part was the weird comparison to Big Ben. The wrong “there” was the first thing to make me pause and then I saw the joke.
You can’t just ignore the second part of that sentence which gives the right to make commits to all citizens of earth. That would include the person who wrote the last commit.
It’s a play on a Mad Max: Fury Road quote.
I’ve sort of done the same thing. Most console games are optimized around their ‘quality’ game mode. Many games will have the quality mode be a solid locked 30 fps while performance will be a low res, blurry mess running at an unlocked frame rate between 40-55 fps. I’ll happily play at 30 fps to avoid those issues.
Do not, my friends, become addicted to 60 fps. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!
I haven’t seen anything that has said that. I couldn’t find that in the article either.
Edit: I don’t care about the downvotes, but surely one of you could’ve replied with a link showing me where it says that reviewers had the mtx unlocked for them while reviewing.
That’s my point. Reviewers gave it great scores when there weren’t any microtransactions and they haven’t changed anything in the game to make those microtransactions important. You can play the game the exact same way the reviewers did by just ignoring them.
They say in the article that reviewers were told about the microtransactions. Then they mention that one reviewer said he didn’t read the notes that were sent by Capcom. Why would this reviewer need to go back and rescore the game? If he enjoyed it without knowing about the microtransactions, they clearly don’t matter to the gameplay.
Watermarking isn’t to stop you from buying a game on steam and cracking it, it’s to stop you from uploading screenshots or videos of a game you have alpha/beta access to.
If a game does ship with this, it’s also shipping with denuvo. A cracker that can bypass denuvo can bypass the watermarking too.
Newer generations have decoders/encoders for more codecs. 8th gen Intel Core cpus have good HEVC support while you need the more recent gens for good AV1 support.
This particular change would just be for the steam deck, since it is a steam deck client update.
It might be worth taking a look at the steam link community on steam. I saw a valve employee trying to help people diagnose issues in one of the pinned posts on the Android community.
They have a really small userbase, but it lines up well with the demographics here: Early adopter, tech enthusiasts with a distrust in Google and tired of how bad search is now.
Early adopters are generally very excited about whatever they’ve picked up. They feel the same way about a search engine the same way I feel about wearing only the same brand of black socks. Super excited to tell everyone about it whenever I get the chance because of how much it changed my life.
Probably the biggest shock to getting a Mac for work is how all the basic QoL apps want $20+ a year subscriptions. I’m not paying a subscription to reverse my scrollwheel for my mouse.
That paragraph is part of the new terms and conditions document they released.
The comment/post ratio for active users on Lemmy is 100%. An active user on Lemmy is defined as someone who has made a comment or post within the last month.
That math just doesn’t work out. Lemmy.world has ~25% of its total user base commenting and posting, which is really high compared to established social media platforms. Kbin has 62,195 total users and 61,632 active users. There’s just no way that kbin has 99% of its user base commenting and posting.
It would be interesting to see the Supreme Court try to enforce that on the person who has the ability to suspend habeas corpus and have them all arrested.
