Gods, I hate these shitty headlines. The update is:
- An update to the weather widget.
Gods, I hate these shitty headlines. The update is:
Game doesn’t even sound like it needs to be an MMO, which makes me wary. Actually, “Star Citizen-level ambition” is all that I need to run away from it.
So so so many. Right off the top of my head:
He’s effectively trying to get a raise. I don’t see this any different from asking a raise from your boss at work. I mean, if you don’t want more money from work, that’s your problem, not his.
Not true, I’ve been happy with 8.1 and 11.
Some games do load quite fast on the HDD, I keep those there. Most games do go to the SSD first.
Wow, that’s gotta be like, 15 years old by now? Creative stopped using the Fatal1ty branding around 2010, I think!
Man, even 100TB of HDDs won’t come cheap.
Then why’re you even commenting in an area that you don’t partake in? This is like saying “I don’t get why people buy sports cars” in a forum of racing enthusiasts. Or saying “I don’t see the need for cast iron woks” when you’re happy to have boiled pasta every day.
Join one of the PatientGamer communities, usually a good way to find out interesting older games you may have missed in the current and/or previous hype cycles.
I don’t really care about that as long as it doesn’t interfere with my daily use; that’s what I really dislike whenever MS adds something to Edge, it adds cruft to the UI, and also why I get the complaints about ads in the Start Menu (I’m not in the USA, never had ads in the Start Menu ever). That shit would be so infuirating.
I’ve got Win 11 on my laptop on with the last update I think it’s ok to use now. What’s wrong with it?
Not a privacy freak, but still concerned about the overheads with sending unncessary data too. And I really just want an OS, not a nanny on the desktop. Copilot in Edge is useful but I hate the nagging about using it.
Have you tried installing a copy of Windows in Dosbox, then install the game from there? I remember doing something like that to play the original SimTower.
Very likely the game is 16 bit mode, which is why nothing in Windows 10’s compatibility mode is working, as it doesn’t support 16 bit programs.
Just when I was ready to upgrade to 11; I don’t think I’ve ever been this behind in Windows upgrade cycles outside of the awful ones (ME, Vista and 8).
How bad is the scalping? I’m in Singapore and the price premium is about 10%.
The higher price isn’t permanent.
I’ve worked in camera retail and the local shops do just that, actually, and it’s effective. The FOMO people get their stuff first at a higher price, the shop gets a boost in margins, and everyone else gets to enjoy cheaper prices three months later (and have the early adopters sit through the bugs and first-run issues).
Definitely a good RTS, feels like it peaked with the first Company of Heroes.
Hybrid MMO/ARPG?
I think that's how some creators do get paid. Large enough channels will get some form of revenue sharing from YouTube. That's why when a video is demonetised the creators get very upset. As is when YT does some fuckery with their algorithms and their views plummet.
Mind, the rates keep getting worse, from what I hear. Hence more and more pateron and in-video promos, it's a better and more stable source of income.
I’ve missed this thread for a few weeks already (as in, I didn’t see it). Completed Disco Elysium twice since then, amazing game! Very sad that there’s not going to be a sequel; the world is fascinating, as is the style of gameplay.
