Ahhhh! I didn’t know this was happening woo!

It also seems if you can’t get it to run on linux at first, setting compatibility to proton experimental bleeding edge will do the trick.

That’s unfortunate, I was really looking forward to this because the setting was so cool and I loved the mystcraft and rf dimensions mods for minecraft. Unfortunately the developers made some…interesting, design choices that just killed the game for me, and apparently everyone else too.

I usually have a pretty bad attention span with games so it’s wild to me that I’ve been playing warframe almost exclusively for nearly 3 months now, and I’m super excited for 1999 later this year.

I also really need to get back into the satisfactory server I’ve been hosting for some friends and finish the turbofuel power plant for them.

Finally, Monomyth came out in early access recently so I’ve been savoring it. Arx Fatalis had the absolute coolest fantasy setting I have ever seen, as well as just being an awesome game. Monomyth is a love letter and I couldn’t be happier.

I believe the things you are calling out are an integral part of the ARPG genre so there isn’t going to be much change to the core without fundamentally changing the game you’re playing. Plenty of people enjoy the wanton clicky destruction and seeing numbers rise, just look how popular stuff like cookie clicker is.

Have you tried monster hunter? (Or god eater or wild hearts) Those games sound a lot like what you’re describing. At its heart the core gameplay is ‘Hunt monsters to gather parts to make better gear to hunt more powerful monsters’

Instead of mowing down tones of small things though, you take down a single large and dangerous foe. As you progress, new and more powerful foes appear, but despite the large roster of monsters, they all feel unique. And while better gear certainly helps, a good deal of skill is also required.

Wait, the three mile island thing wasn’t a joke?

I lived the collectibles in Anacronox, they were little golden taco trophies and their lore was that they used to be highly sought after until it came out that TACO stood for Totally Arbitrary Collectible Object and it tanked the market.

You meet a guy that held on till the bitter end but finally had to sell off his collection because he needed the money, so you give him any you find for trinkets and stuff to help him rebuild his collection.

Kerbal space program 2 was somehow both rushed and delayed :(

I don’t know if I’m opposed to store exclusives exactly, but epic was paying out the nose to drive people to their store that didn’t even have a shopping cart.

They launched a store without a feature every online store has had for decades

It was always a matter of when, not if.

Oh…so I dug further, and apparently the only in-house game to their name is a blade runner title that’s still in development.

Annapurna was both, this article is saying that the development side broke off from the publishing side.

I was so looking forward to this game because the aestetic was so cool…and then I played, and it was a buggy always online mess with a convoluted crafting system. So disappointing.

Disposable vapes have to be a thousand times worse than k-cups.

I was floored when one of my coworkers was showing off his vape that played games and stuff and said he went through one a week.

I’m probably in the minority here but the realistic style is the least of my issues with the movie. I’ve only played modded minecraft and shaders give it that weird realistic look too lol

Anecdotally it hasn’t been that hard. I’ve had the best luck with Linux Mint just working straight out of the box. I basically only use my computer to game so your mileage may vary if you need specialized software or something.

Also the benefit of mint is that Ubuntu has a huge user base comparatively so you can find a lot of info online for people who have probably already figured out issues that you might encounter.

It looks like a super novel combination of elements and genres which has me intrigued. If the dev can pull this off I’m going to have to explain to my friends why I’m plying a porn game lol

My job has radicalized me against windows, the settings are factory reset quite frequently due to updates or reimaging so I’m constantly resetting every single option just to get it back to a continent state (Who in their right mind thinks centered task bar icons is a good thing!?!?!)

The thing that really irked me too was his edit after he was banned said something like “I guess valve did have a problem with me playing with my friends” completely ignoring his blatant ‘fuck you valve’ tone of the article

I saw a post on this the other day but i think it’s that the bot is incredibly biased so what it deems factually correct or not is suspect

The older monster hunters were more about being a village protector and the hunter guild actively worked to maintain a natural balance…I saw in a video recently that in the newer games though the developers actively shied away from environmental themes
