I can give so many but you’ll have to narrow down your preferences a bit ^^
I’ve recently been playing Remnant 2, Songs of Syx, Age of Darkness, dotAGE, Helldivers, Valheim, Against the Storm… all really impressive and amazing games made by (relatively) small studios or AA developers with a passion for games. If you’re completely new to the indie scene you probably can’t go wrong with Hades, Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Terraria
Abandon AAA, buy more indie or AA games and you’ll find what you want
I remember being confused by the ending but tbh never to the extent it ruined the rest of the franchise retroactively. Not even Andromeda managed to so that! I still have fond memories of ME and I’m constantly tempted to replay it with the legendary edition, if only I had the time.
I wish i could host my own simple lightweight identity provider and authenticator that is used for fediverse instead of creating accounts everywhere. Relying on fediverse to maintain both content, but also account info, seems like a really bad idea in retrospect (even if one day we get proper ways to migrate accounts but not even Mastodon does that well yet).
It’s probably be relatively easy to establish services offering these for less tech savvy people later so they can just have a central identity service with which they can roam around in any fediverse they want later.
Wasn’t that more for games like wizardry or the more modern example, legend of grimrock? It sounds more related to what a dnd party would do than just fighting hordes of enemies.
Back in my days we called games like Diablo hack n slash RPGs
Sounds like the original creators of these games should get the rights back for chump change.
When you’re working with purely digital products nothing is going to stay around for very long
Illuminating and very worrying statement in this context
Do people actually self host mail? I remember watching some conference that said it is basically a full time job nowadays to get your mails actually delivered if you’re not one of the big providers. Much easier to pay one of them and just use a custom domain instead, and I can easily see this being a thing for the fediverse one day too (assuming it ever gets big enough)
And yet they still want them, so there must be more to the story. I also don’t understand why since I have dynamic IP address in EU, unless they can match the ownership to a person at any given time in the past its not useful info.
It could be a “boil the frog slowly” situation
It’s a Dell laptop with an Nvidia GPU. I tried Linux Mint but I’m having constant OS-breaking freezes after gaming for a while and it’s happening on 2 different games so far (completely unresponsive, and it’s with steam games so no custom tinkering in lutris/wine). Thinking I’ll just try a fresh install but with PopOS when I have time.
Thanks for the summary, it all does make a bit more sense to me now but first time I had to spend half an hour just to find BG3 saves in Heroic due to the seemingly duplicates of folder structures all over the place lol
That’s what I tried first but also had a lot of confusing experiences with its file hierarchy, prefixes, lutris/wine/proton and all of these. I was hoping bottles lives up to its promise of “one click installation with community install scripts” instead. This is my first real attempt at linux, I didn’t even know what flatpak is until a week ago, I used the appimage for heroic which was also very confusing for a time. Starting to think I might be just too dumb/inpatient for it tbh, it’s just one issue after another - even simple stuff like games ran from steam with proton have lots of issues that aren’t reported on protondb.
Got any good guides for bottles? I’ve tried it recently and then got stuck on literally step one: installing the gog launcher just throw errors, I tried the 2nd gog installer and that one just leads to a black screen when I run it. I’m not sure what to tinker with, whether I try a different bottle or where to even start
I think the biggest issue is account management. Having all these different instances wouldn’t be as bad if it were easy to switch accounts or combine their subscriptions, making it truly user-driven instead of depending on the behavior of each individual instance.
Someone must have signed off on this and thst person should have gotten jail time IMHO.
Article does say “one time contributor” so yeah, just a click bait title.
Got a guide or some similar resource for someone who might be interested in checking out that rabbit hole?
I’ve been using logseq for a few months now, can you go into more detail why you switched to Joplin? You can also just stick to pages rather than the journal with logseq (it’s mostly what I’ve been doing) so I’m not sure from just that comment what’s the benefit of Joplin.
Lorca got me through discovery for a season or two and then he was gone, I don’t think I watched anything beyond it. I hear it’s only gotten worse, somehow
