Well thankfully Gabe has lost a ton of weight in recent years. Man is looking absolutely svelte these days. Here’s hoping he has many more years of good health.
I’m also guessing he’ll hand pick a successor that will carry on his views, instead of dying in office and having some kind of CEO election free-for-all.
Added a per-device toggle to Settings->Bluetooth that controls whether a device is allowed to wake SteamDeck from sleep.
Does this work for older Deck models or only the OLED model?
It was huge in the Ancient Gods 1 and 2. That one ghost enemy that would possess and power up others you had to hit with the microwave beam for example.
I’m hoping they move away from requiring specific weapons or mods to counter specific enemies. Stoked to learn more about Sentinel Prime.
Yes, Sony started enforcing a requirement to link a PSN account in order to be able to keep playing Helldivers 2. This was months after launch, after being sold in dozens of countries where people can’t make PSN accounts. Sony responded by just delisting Helldivers 2 from those countries. Looks like they’re doing the same thing with Ghosts of Tsushima and delisting it from countries that can’t make PSN accounts.
Some alligators in Florida prefer salt water.
We switched to all Dell laptops at the start of the pandemic and we’re seeing like a 40% hardware failure rate now 3 years later, conveniently right after the warranty term ran out.
I bought so many games on sale after I got my first grown-up job, that just ended up sitting in my library while I played the same 3 games. I bought a Steam Deck 6 months ago and it’s been great for clearing out my backlog. I love being able to play games sitting in the recliner instead of at a desk.
I started with Jerboa for a few months but I think I’ve settled in Connect now. If I had to pick between Jerboa and Boost though I’d pick Jerboa.
There’s a locally run thrift store in my small town that I donate everything to. I get shirts and pants for a couple bucks and rarely pay more than 50 cents for a book.
It’s around $1700 for a one bedroom where I am. $1359 for a two bedroom sounds like a dream.
How about banning corporations from owning single family homes or thousands of condo units? I bet that would go a long way towards solving the housing crisis. I used to live in a 200 unit condo complex and the majority of units were owned by 3 people who used that majority to push through whatever they wanted on the condo board. An absolutely massive tax on housing you don’t actually live in would help make housing more accessible. Housing shouldn’t be an investment. Nationalize it.
I’m replaying Doom Eternal right now and I feel this so hard. Even with ammo upgrades and judicious chainsaw use I’m constantly out of ammo. Really makes me wish for a melee weapon that doesn’t have limited fuel or whatever.
I find turning off motion blur and screen shake/weapon bobbing really helps for me. Assuming you have the option that is.
I keep taking breaks from Baldur’s Gate to play action/fps games. I can only handle so much turn based tactical gameplay at once.
I’m taking a break from BG3 to replay Doom Eternal. I got the DLC for it a while ago and never played. I also need the space back on my Steam Deck lol so I need to finish it so I can uninstall.
I personally don’t like Epic for paying developers for exclusivity deals, keeping games off other PC platforms for a year or more. Artificial scarcity is bad for consumers.
I went for “a hearse made out of coffins”
I’d take perfect aim when throwing something. You always hit the garbage can, you’re unstoppable playing darts. You never miss flinging a playing card at your friends.
Remember what the Conservatives have done at a provincial level, and think of the damage they will cause if federally elected. They’re shutting down the science center and selling the land to a private company to build a spa, trying to sell off the green belt, cancelling the cap and trade program, and failing to provide consumer EV incentives like other provinces.
