Also we have electric, water and gas meters smh

They are the worst. Have caused me countless headaches.

Was just telling my friends, had one of those instances where I lost a run, so I closed the game with the intent of going to go so something else, then found myself opening it again 2 minutes later… so addictive

When the article was first posted it said "Published in 2025…”, at least they corrected that heh. But yeah factorio had been around for a couple of years by then.

How many did you fucking drink?!

A bit off topic but certainly related, I just heard about this:

https://community.simtropolis.com/forums/topic/762980-the-future-of-sc4-modding-the-matter-of-digital-vs-disc-and-windows-vs-macos-in-the-dll-era/

Thanks to the efforts of those continuing simmaster07’s line of work, namely Null 45 and memo, these sorts of revolutions are about to become more commonplace, bringing with them everything from improved game stability on modern systems, to long-requested new features and quality-of-life (QoL) improvements. Null 45 has already released over a dozen DLL mods on the STEX since November, one of the most recent of which allows more Building Styles. While I can’t reveal too much at this point in time, I will note that DLL files will become important components of major SC4 mods in the very near future. Suffice to say, we’re entering a very exciting time in the SC4 modding community.

Edit: the caveat being, these will only work on the digital release windows version of SC4

Do you really think someone out there is going to see a random post where a guy says he has uploaded a bunch of… something and decide to try to investigate to find out what?

That’s not how it works. Even if he had included actual torrent names in the screenshot, the chances of someone caring enough to pursue it are infinitesimal.

I personally think we’re close to the high water mark, might see 2.5m, maaaybe 3 but I’m skeptical. You’ve seen most of what the game has to offer after 10 hours, and the jank + lack of story is sure to cause lots of people to bounce off of it pretty quickly. I think given some time it’ll improve, but by then you won’t get these crazy peak concurrent numbers.

Nintendo owns a stake in the franchise, but doesn’t do the development

TotK and Wonder were far from what I’d call filler… and from memory, Nintendo has a track record of releasing big name games at the tail end of a console’s life cycle (tp on GC, botw on Wii u)…

I admit they’re likely releasing the switch successor soon, though they’ll likely continue to release games for the OG switch for a few years to come…

The latest pi (5b) has a pcie connector that will allow you to connect sata drives, but I don’t know if there’s a commercial product for it yet…

He’s talking about 6~(?) months ago, they ditched the android specific codebase and ported the iPhone app to Android (“unified the codebase”) which made a lot of things shittier on the android side of things

100%

The soundtrack from the first game is in my top 5 OSTs of all time (FTL probably edges it out a little, and crypt of the necrodancer just below it)

Super excited to dive back into this game, one of the few games I got 100% achievements in when I played it on my vita years ago.

Edit: Spotify link for the OG OST: https://open.spotify.com/album/10ZDr7VkJP1YyQaSgKa0pV?si=kX_6PaJBS9ayM71ryIZQFg&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A10ZDr7VkJP1YyQaSgKa0pV

Thank you!

Is there a way to view this without logging into Twitter?

Maybe a remake of age of oracles/seasons a la link’s awakening? Also the rumored re-release of WWHD & skyward sword.

It looks like they’re slides from a powerpoint style presentation… in the following frames, the light grey text is legible. Still, not a good way to present that data, heh. Stuff like that irks me so bad

No, it was actually iPhone:
