I like the “Free The Artist” side quest.

That is all.

There’s pretty much only two ways you can go about it in my experience:

1. Fail forwards and try cobbling something together, constantly using search engines to fix errors or finding libraries or getting help with those libraries. One thing you’d have to figure out is an order of operations - what do you code and in what order, which might be tough for someone new but I’d say it’s well worth it.

2. Find some tutorial to a project and try following it (those that have step by step guide on what you should do without letting you copy paste code), then using the knowledge you gain to do the way #1 above to hopefully have an easier time figuring out the order of operations, plan out your program and what you’re gonna be coding.

Don’t think you can avoid getting hands-on and coding something up by yourself. General coding tutorials can only get you so far and are often harmful if abused too much (aka being stuck in tutorial hell).

Wonder if that’s the “alienation of labor” thing Marx was talking about

Old School Runescape

Seeing many comments here shitting on this decision by google, is this really that big of a deal? I’ve personally never used the cached feature of Google and if I ever needed to see a page that is currently down, it’d be via wayback machine. If nobody used the feature, why have it waste a ton worth of storage space? Feel free to prove me wrong though.

Thanks for the correction, I’ve removed the section from my comment.

I’ve been playing League casually from time to time on Linux, and it’s just a shame that they’re adding Vanguard to the game since that kills any compatibility it had under wine. Though, knowing League community, a lot of players on Linux are so addicted to the game, they’ll switch their operating systems for it or buy a second computer just to play.

Pathologic 2 - it’s a really stressful game, but I think it’d be perfect for the criteria. The choices matter aspect are intertwined in both how you spend your time (it’s limited and you can’t be everywhere at once), and in quests (the more traditional choices, like pick A or B or C). Don’t want to spoil any more but it’s amazing, you don’t need to play the original.

Besides it, I’ve also heard good things from Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, though I haven’t played it personally.

Old School Runescape. Kind of a cop-out answer as it’s a MMO, but I’m never gonna get maxed there

Code received - thank you so much!

Entering for Persona 5, always wanted to try the game out but it was a console exclusive for the longest time

It’s actually pretty cool to see giveaways happening on Lemmy of all places, thank you for this.

No, and once I became aware of the fact realized that I was kinda screwed when it came to video games.

Every single video game I have purchased is on Steam, and considering its DRM and licence business model, I had multiple conversations with my friends who also had the same worry and wondered what would happen if Steam shut down one day. Valve did state that they’ll remove the DRM if the platform shut down, but there’s no way of knowing the future as million things can happen and for all we know, they might change their minds or not be in a position to remove the DRM once the time came.

There’s this saying about how if something is punishable by a fine, then it’s only illegal for poor people.

I don’t even have to finish this do I

I’m going to do a hard disagree here - they don’t have to support Linux, just add compatibility in terms of anti-cheat for Linux. Proton is likely good enough to run the game itself but the anti-cheat sees Linux and just craps itself.

They don’t even have to provide support - League of Legends runs on Linux if you install the game using community scripts and custom proton, and while the client runs poorly nobody spams the Riot Games support about how the “Linux version” client doesn’t work the well because people understand that it’s a community effort. Riot themselves have only made a statement saying how they’ll try not to break the game for Linux users, and that’s pretty much it.

League of Legends is a massively popular game as well, yet Riot barely has to do anything to maintain it on Linux, let community fix issues that come up, let community provide support as it’s their tools.

And while I do understand that porting an anti-cheat to be more friendly to another operating system isn’t an easy task (such as for Rust, where they tried to make the anti-cheat compatible with Linux but it introduced other issues so it got shelved), I think you’re vastly overstating the amount of areas a company has to cover for a game to be playable on Linux.

they probably meant web versions of the app that run both on chromium and gecko (firefox) browser engines

His money could be used to fix so many issues en masse. It’s disgusting that he chooses not to do so every day.

Pretty sure he posted on twitter a couple years ago about how if someone credible provided a plan to solve world hunger for 6 billion dollars, he would sell Tesla stock and just do it, to which the UN responded with a detailed plan. However, Musk pretty much ignored them, no acknowledgment (as far as I know) and no money donated.

Using the money to fix issues in the world and making it a better place is not a part of his politics.

Pretty sure it’s an inevitability at this point and Musk knows it, which is precisely why he’s fueling the flames of the whole ad situation. Since the whole controversy are both about the Jews (as in antisemitism) and advertisers, they can be blamed for the death of the platform instead of business decisions by Musk.

There’s also the possibility that some right-wing billionaires who really love to spread their propaganda using twitter are going to buy the company or bail it out or whatever, but that remains to be seen

wasn’t there some drama where some other cracker group exposed “her” as being some bulgarian dude?

The death of the sun will arrive before gamers actually do a boycott that is successful, because boycotts (especially for popular franchises or products) don’t work. If you rally up 10,000 people for a boycott, it’s less than 1% of sales AAA studios get and 70% of the boycotters are still going to buy the game regardless.

No change is going to happen ever, so the best thing to do is to start ignoring the AAA gaming industry altogether on a personal level.
