World of Warcraft has its own anticheat that works on Linux no problem, if Blizzard can do it why Riot can’t? It’s not that WoW has more players than LOL so it could be justified, it’s actually the opposite.

It’s not only the game industry unfortunately, it’s every industry everywhere.

It’s public trading - and all the financial speculations around it - that ruins companies, forcing them to earn more and spend less year after year, and when they have nothing else left to cut, they start cutting the workforce, with all the bad repercussions Swen described, like loss of institutional knowledge for example.

It’s a financial model that’s totally unsustainable, noone can grow indefinitely, they should change the way companies are valued, not looking at quarterly profits but a number of other parameters like respect for the environment for example, security, financial stability, things like that.

It won’t happen tho so the only option today to be a good company is avoiding public trading, not many entrepreneurs are smart enough, or unselfish enough, to do it.

What CA are you getting your certificates from?

If Let’s Encrypt, have you checked their alternative methods to certbot?

Nice! I was thinking about buying a deck, I’ll wait for the new one, thanks for the news!

I have 180 hours. First playthrough was learning DnD rules and mechanics (I knew nothing about it before), I started on the easiest setting, got up to act 3 but I missed a lot of stuff and I wasn’t satisfied so I restarted on normal.

I finished the game on normal, tho I rushed act 3 a bit because I wanted to see the end of the story. Then I started a dark urge run, still at the very beginning, I’ll probably get additional 100+ hours by the end of it XD.

It is, Astarion explains it pretty well, he says that a spawn is not able to bite the master unless the master allows it, and that basically never happens because the master would lose a slave in favor of a competitor.

Won’t you miss the amazing dialog you get if you bring Wyll with you?

Not the best, but one that made me laugh hard, Astarion after recruiting Laezel: Laezel is nice, in a “look at me twice and I’ll dismember you” way.

Astarion is hilarious in general.

Haha, well mods are not officially supported yet, but I’m sure they’ll do something about fixing large too, looks like these devs truly care a great deal about their game and players, give them time, they’ll fix everything and more.

Not sure what a single day more can do but I trust their judgment, looking forward to it!

PLEASE LET ME HUG MY COMPANIONS MORE I NEED TO HOLD ASTARION AND GIVE HIM COMFORT AFTER THAT SCENE I BEG YOU

I hope Larian will listen to this feedback, I want that too XD

There are plenty of warnings against doing that, you chose to ignore them and do it anyway, you paid the consequences (I did it too once XD).

That’s fair game, we were curious to see what happened BUT you can’t say the game is bad just because actions have consequences, not “you” personally, it’s the article saying that, it’s bullshit.

The strange ox is definitely something, tho I still don’t know what (not searching yet to see if I can find out ingame), you can talk to it with the spell speak to animals, the interaction is intriguing.

I did something similar, ran into her cage, convinced to tieflings to go away but I didn’t realize at first you can use a ranged weapon to free her (yeah I’m that noob lol) so I went away to search for crates to climb on. As soon as I left the area the quest was completed, she was no longer there.

As I understand it, she freed herself and you will find her quite later on to join you (after mountain pass) - assuming you convinced to tieflings to not kill her, in that case she’s not lost, you’ll have another chance.

I personally reloaded a previous save to free her myself.

True, but I also personally use it for MMORPGs to keep track of things on my armies of alts :D

I would like it more nuanced like in Bioware games (ME, DA, SWTOR): some companions are bisexual, some are homo only, some are hetero only.

I don’t mind some being straightforward and persistent but I would also like some being shy and not initiate romance if it isn’t you who hit on them.

It would make for more “realistic” personalities, in my opinion.

LTS is your problem, it has too old stuff (kernel, drivers) for the sake of stability, never good for games, especially new ones.

If you want to stick with Ubuntu, you need the normal one, or change distro as you said, Fedora is good, Linux Mint is also really good and based on Ubuntu, if you want something more similar to what you’re used to.
