If you’ve never played Super Space ________ and you’re looking for local split screen games I highly recommend it. It’s an amazing blend of competitive and cooperative design that’s always fun and chaotic. And it’s free! But it’s not on Steam since it’s a collegiate project. Link
From what I’ve heard of Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, that’s a very similar game but I haven’t tried it.

“It’s not about PR, it’s about those teams… I have to run a sustainable business so they’re on their own because I say so.”
Yeah, hero based-shooters haven’t been good since that one with the dumb name that came out in 2007. What was it called again? Squad Castle 2 or something?
Despite the privacy concerns, Microsoft says that the Recall index remains local and private on-device, encrypted in a way that is linked to a particular user’s account.
Just like how Microsoft domain-bound emails were stored locally on machines running Outlook, right? Or how purchasing and downloading music, movies, and video games meant that we owned them, right?
I don’t believe for a fucking second that this “feature” will remain locally encrypted forever. Fuck Microsoft, fuck the AI bubble.
“Don’t be evil!
…
wait, you say you’ll pay me to be evil? Well fuck that changes everything!”
Sounds like the Team Fortress 2 team has been busy, but didn’t want to count to 3
“I hope they’ll find my diamond ring in the dumpster out back”
That’s perfect. I don’t think there could be a better way to describe it in one sentence. It’s also a fun spin on the “like skyrim with guns” oversimplification lol
I just finished playing Horizon: Zero Dawn for the second time and it was way more engaging than I remember it being back in 2017. Apparently a lot of reviews ragged on it for “not being Breath of the Wild” which is a lame thing to complain about, even if the game came out at the same time, and they share a lot of thematic elements (like heavily focusing on archery, fighting ancient machines, exploring a beautiful world, etc.).
But it’s a very different game, very narrative heavy, very beautiful, and very well-optimized on PC. The combat is very focused and fun in a good way.
I was just commenting on the fact that programming to handle time zone conversions (and daylight savings time) is difficult enough without having to factor planetary orbit into the equation. Colonization aside, even if we found native martians had a calendar they were “currently” using, writing a program to convert from any Earth calendar time to native Martian calendar time would be an astronomical pain in the ass.
Sounds like you might have a lot of hatred in you. I hope you’re going to therapy. I am for that exact reason.
Born too late to have to fix the Y2K problem, born too soon to have to consider Mars’ time zones in the database, born just in time to have most time zone problems solved before I even got involved
Not a bad idea, but like which DOOM?
I ask that sarcastically, but 90’s DOOM, 00’s DOOM, and 10-20s DOOM all play very differently lol
I think my favorite aspect(s) about DOOM is that all of the games are good, they are all worth playing, and they are all representative of the peak of 3D technology from their respective release eras.
Aside from that, every DOOM short of DOOM 3 satisfies my primal need to violently, quickly, adeptly slaughter demons (which has needed far more satisfaction in recent years for some odd reason). I recently finished a nightmare DOOM 2016 playthrough and loved every minute beginning to end, yet again. I’m now in the depths of a nightmare DOOM Eternal playthrough and I can’t get over how addicting the game is. You CANNOT beat the game without engaging with every single one of the combat mechanics, but it’s up to you, your skills, and your digital (read: finger) dexterity to determine when and how you do that. It’s nothing but flawless game design, gorgeous visuals, technical mastery, and some of the best instrumental heavy metal there is.
Gotcha gotcha. I think you have a point, but Ubisoft seems interested in letting their dev teams take enough risks to prove whether players enjoy stuff. Case in point: Ubisoft didn’t pay for dedicated servers for For Honor until players proved resiliently interested in the game. Adding dedicated servers later then increased the playerbase. Furthermore, Operation Health with Siege was a period of time when players were deprived of meaningful content additions but players remained through and the game came out better for it. Fair enough to say that neither of these were a 10-year commitment, but Siege has already proven to be a worthy investment for the past 8 years so maybe it could continue to be for the next 12 ¯_(ツ)_/¯
You gotta elaborate what that ellipsis means. Why would you want a sequel that splits the playerbase? If the game is still fun, and there’s good reasons to come back to it week after week, why are 10 years of updates bad?
I’m looking forward to the 100 operator mark because the dev team has more than proven their capable of making new operators with abilities that interact with the existing core mechanics in exciting, deep ways. I hope they go far beyond 100 as well.
I saw the title and the first thing that came to mind was DOOM (2016) lol.
I love all the games, but there’s something about the 2016 reboot that feels wonderfully immersive. I just beat the Cyberdemon in a replaythrough and the way it throws you across the room but the Slayer just slides angrily instead of tumbling and smacking into the wall puts a devilish(angelic) smile on my face
This is the best answer. Great party game
Okay, I don’t think I was trying to convince anyone. I’m not on Apple’s side here, but I don’t see how less governmental regulation could possibly be worse for Apple.
I bought and still own a Razer Sixense Hydra. I would 100% have bought this thing had I owned a gaming PC back in 2007
