Oh that’s understandable. Most MMO games, at least in the past before the rise of F2P, had monthly subscriptions (often in addition to needing to buy the base game).

Not sure if this is a joke or not… WoW was always a subscription game-as-a-service.

I love that approach you’re taking! So many times, even in shows with official subs, they’re wrong because of homonyms and I’d really appreciate a hedged transcript.

I regularly dock my Deck and run games at 1080p or even 2160p on my TV so there’s still a use case for Deck owners.

Pretty sure the lyrics are:

Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they’re girls
Who do girls like they’re boys

Which basically means girls taking the stereotypical male role during intercourse while the boys take the stereotypical female role.

Basically “Pegging: The Musical”.

I turn the brightness on my phone as low as it goes, turn on night shift to get rid of blues, and read (white text on black background / dark mode).

Don’t read in continuous scroll; find a way to turn the page with minimum animation.

Read something you don’t find so compelling as to keep turning pages but enough that you’re happy to read.

I find history books most successful at the moment since there is often no desire by the author to build tension, suspense, etc that keeps you alert.

Patents published in 2022 showed Valve are definitely working on an untethered VR headset, new VR controllers, and a Steam Controller 2. Rumours are they went into mass production in Nov 2024 so we could be near an announcement in the next few months. Typical Valve style, however, is to announce it out of the blue.

But given the success of the Steam Deck, and the money they’ve funnelled into Arch Linux support for ARM processors, I’m pretty confident these aren’t just rumours.

Don’t worry, Valve will be blowing up shit next year.

You can tell how bad it was for developers when even Sega Technical Institute moved Sonic X-treme development off 32X to Saturn and then, after the designer and programmer basically had mental breakdowns, they cancelled it entirely.

I agree with you, Saturn would have been fine if developers had the time to learn the architecture and if Sega hadn’t pulled the launch forward by 6 months by surprise.

I feel so sorry for all those devs who started work on things for the CD or 32X to totally find them defunct before they were able to release their games.

Dreamcast didn’t kill them, it was the Mega-CD, 32X, and Saturn that killed them. Launching three architectures over three years and not giving them space and focus burned a lot of political capital with developers (including those in house) and consumers. By the time the Dreamcast was out, it was already too late.

Which is a shame. Dreamcast was a masterpiece and so ahead of its time.

It’s meant to highlight funny reviews.

Patient Gamers represent!

Titanfall 2 sold like shit yet that’s one of the best single player campaigns and multiplayers in years.

Have you tested with specific websites? Could it be a tab has some have JavaScript running constantly that’s causing the issue?

Release the demos!

You can also use something like MagicaVoxel to make blocky 3D models which people can learn to use a heck of a lot faster than Blender etc, especially if they have played Minecraft before.
