I still hold Call to Power as the best “Civilisation” game. I started playing the actual Civilisation games from Civ3 onwards and was pretty consistently disappointed because most of the ‘new and exciting features’ had already been in CtP and were often DLC in Civ. Kind of wish a modern CtP would get released.

One of the biggest controversies at the start of all of this was Ubisoft pulling The Crew whilst pushing people to buy The Crew 2. Frankly it’s amazing we haven’t seen that more often with the near identical sequels such as the Madden, FIFA, F1 etc games.

No one’s forcing you to buy a remaster… unless they are because they revoke your right to play the original so it’s your only option.

Remasters and remakes will still happen but companies won’t have as much freedom to yoink a purchased product from your pocket years down the track in the name of some profit strategy.

But I want to resell it to the same person for further profit 👉👈🥺 - AAA Game Publishers

Alternatively, when the console control scheme is tight and well made but the PC controls are ASDF + whatever random keys spread at opposite ends of the keyboard.

Blasphemy!!

As far as I’m aware NO₂ will fill a pit. In the industry I work in NO₂ leaks are serious threat because the engines that are worked on are in, what is essentially, a cage that you walk down into. I’ve not experienced it myself but heard from someone who experienced it firsthand as you just start feeling sleepy. I know now that it’s because our bodies are sensitive to asphyxiation from CO₂ but not NO₂, so as it displaces the oxygen in our lungs you just start getting woozy and tired.

All that being said; I am not an expert. Half this is information from diesel mechanics who work with it and the other half is from random science videos. So take it with a grain of salt.

This x100. I get along with the people I work with but at the end of the day I can’t wait to get away from them. Whereas I still catch up with friends outside of work regardless. Given the option of only socialising with friends and family that’s a no brainer for me.

The other one was taken out back and shot.

The coroner report will be suicide by head trauma. Poor dentist was so sad he shot himself in the back the head, twice!

My inner monologue even said “2 delta V… wait.”

It’s funny how much it changes Linus Media Group’s titles and thumbnails because of how incredibly click baity and disingenuous they are. Like, it might change “Billion Dollar Super Computer Mega Build!” to “Building A Water Cooled Server Rack.” The first might be true at a stretch from a certain point of view but the second is literally what they’re doing.

I see Nintendo as a law firm and they have within their roster a lot of talented lawyers.

Well then, I hope you don’t hold it against me if I go first?

This is my own experience but the past few years Windows has been extremely dependable for me and then in the last few months the updates they’ve have been terrible. I’ve seen more blue screens recently than I have in a lot of years.

All this to say that if it is 30% AI code being used then it’s very telling!

Yep, you got it.

Spacebar looks to be exactly what I’ve been looking for! Unfortunately, according to their FAQ the voice and video features aren’t implemented yet but here’s hoping that someone comes on-board to help set it up 🤞definitely an easy decision for a self hosted Discord alternative if that comes to fruition!

Some mates and I backed way back in the day and only really started putting some decent play time into it recently. While it’s definitely still in-progress we were all surprised at what they’ve done and what’s been accomplished.

It’s an absolute shame about the amount of feature creep the game has experienced but even the experience available now is decent.

Been playing Stellaris with friends since its release. We all still love the game but in the past couple of years it’s been almost impossible to play with a group of people due to network errors and desync. Hopefully this update fixes that.
