ER uses anti-cheat…

The base game already had some pretty badly designed fights that rely on deceptive animations and timing for their difficulty, and the DLC really triples down on that. The more games they make the more bullshit the fights get. I like a challenging fight, but when you have to die to a boss 20-30 times just to see all of their attacks, and the attacks are designed to not be legible the first time you see them… It’s just not very fun game design. I think FROM is a victim of their own success and this is the inevitable result of constantly trying to one-up the last hardest flight in the series. At a certain point it stops being rewarding and just becomes a grind.

For me Doom 2016 was a hugely more enjoyable experience than Eternal. 2016 is arguably one of the greatest linear single player shooters ever made. Eternal felt like a chore once you had all the tools unlocked and I lost interest shortly after. I could have lowered the difficulty so weapon selection didn’t matter, but that was clearly not the design intent.

Ultrakill does the “swap between weapons quickly for interesting combos” much better IMO – it’s not necessary but it’s a value add and it’s super fun to pull off.

Yep. Lots of times road traffic is worsened in order to improve bike infrastructure with no simultaneous improvement of non-bike alternatives like public transit. Not everyone can replace their cars with bikes, especially not in America.

Isn’t Kagi an AI company with a bunch of shady shit going on? I’m always extremely skeptical of these posts.

I think that’s only actually been proved a couple of times, and it definitely doesn’t apply here. This is obviously just bad plagiarism.

Maybe you should tell us why?

Yes, but they probably won’t. For Sony, Linux/Steam Deck players are less than a rounding error.

Stop using GitHub. Especially if you’re working on anything that corpo interests will frown on, but just generally, there are plenty of alternatives (both git and non-git) that aren’t owned by Microsoft.

Answer from the article itself: no, they were never well represented. This is a terrible clickbait title for a decent article.

It’s very indicative of the culture though. That people pay hundreds of dollars a year just for the privilege of using their products is taken for granted.

I mean, that is what happened here – they looked at market cap and yearly revenue to determine the fine amount. I agree with you for like speeding tickets which need to have their fines pre-listed, but for stuff like this a commission deciding the fine is exactly what you want. They could have gone higher ofc but the higher you make the punitive damages the higher the chances of an appeal working.

You’ll need a decent GPU to decode HD video, which led me to just put together what’s basically an outdated gaming PC from old parts and a couple cheap ones I had to order. Works great as a jellyfin server.

They’re definitely not a band that I actively revisit, but compared to most of the shit on this list they’re better than tolerable.

A SOAD + Deftones + AAF concert would fucking slap.

Threads specifically about Windows are one of the best places to suggest Linux.

? What are you talking about?

So like Rust?

Is this post not about Palworld?

Yeah it’s clearly shovelware, the devs made Craftopia and this is very obviously that game with Pokemon stuff shoved in in place of more traditional Minecraft gameplay. It cribs unabashedly from every popular game of the last decade, and it looks like there really isn’t anything to do other than grind, like every other generic wilderness survival crafting game. ARK seems like one of the prime inspirations, which blows my mind because I can’t imagine anyone looking at ARK and thinking “oh yeah let’s do more of that”.

I would be shocked if the game still has momentum 6 months from now.
