That’s even worse part of it. Why tf does game like GTA6 even need marketing? Everyone and their dog will talk about it anyway…

It’s really absurd where budget of those games went to… Big corpo gaming is wasteful as fuck.

Stoner/doom/sludge is probably what you should be looking for.

Try bands like My dying bride, Electric Wizard, Sleep, Kyuss, Stoned Jesus, or maybe even bands like Paradise Lost or OM.

And then there’s Gnome ;-)

Fuck Nintendo.

Edit: I’d be somehow interested in switch-like console and Nintendo exclusive games, but definitely not bundled with horse shit like that.

It’s completely fine. Unless you’re juggling with your balls or other’s naked body parts.

I can’t say one or the other globally. It is very much game dependent for me. There are open worlds that are just wonderful and it’s joy to play them and there are others whose world is empty and useless and that sucks.

One of the best executed open wolrds is old Gothic IMO (Gothic 2 is great too). Sure it’s probably ugly and bland by today standards, but the world is absolutely amazing. It’s completely open from the start, but player is so weak it is probably good idea to play semi-linear at the beginning. But nothing (except for tough enemies) stops you from exploring whatever and whenever you want. And there are tons and tons of things to explore. Hidden cave with loot? Shortcut connecting two roads? Place with very rare alchemy ingredient at the end of narrow valley? Shadowbeast lair? There is so much love put in there I still have cravings to play it even though it’s like quarter of century old game… Quite the same can be said for e.g. Morrowind which is another absolute gem from early 2000s.

But there are also open world games where open world either simply sucks or serves no purpose. I’d have to think about which games fall in there, because once it’s like this I tend to uninstall and forget the title…

Ekke ekke p-tang zoom boing!

You mean consistent like: “Ah, you still on windows ‘add version here’? Too bad, user experience/security/consistency/modern standards are our top priority so you have to have windows ‘add version here +1’ to be able to run our awesome app xyz”… Much better, right?

Half of it because random disconnect happened in the middle and download did not resume.

Fuck no. Luckily it’s not even enabled in my country.

I’m too old to learn vim escape game. I’m glad I can do :q :-D

I have to live with Windows at work so that’s where I use Notpad++. I’m fine with Kate at home.

Just from top of my head and from what I have to use at work:

• Dolphin vs. Explorer - Dolphin is sooo much better and useful it’s not evwn funny
• Notepad++ vs. Notepad - day and night, even though Notepad got an overhaul in W11 it’s still piece of shit compared to Notepad++
• literally any foss player vs. what MS offers - be it VLC, SMPlayer, MPV, anything is better than windows built in crap
• ImageGlass, Nomacs, Gwenview, etc. vs. MS Photos - same as above, windows picture viewer is now worse than ever while open source alternatives get better and better
• and plenty others, like Linux vs. Windows, lol

I was looking at simple 2 bay home NAS and Synology was - quite logically - one of the contenders. Now I’m glad I ordered differently. Went with Asustor AS5402, which might be not as polished package as a Synology option, but they’re very open about it and say it’s just regular PC so you can instal e.g. TrueNAS if you want. This openness convinced me.

Sure, but that’s like… idk, 5? Maybe 7 years at max?! Right?! RIGHT!!!

No way it’s 15 years!

Morrowind is clearly and by far the best TES game ever made. It’s old and it shows, but this doesn’t take anything from the quality of the game. It has one of the best executed and most interesting worlds in any game I’ve played, it has great main story that is still just a scratch among other stories hidden throughout the Vvardenfell, and lastly the soundtrack… It’s epic when it needs to be epic, it’s calm when it needs to be calm, great melodies very well tied to different areas and parts of the game, it’s just awesome.

I can’t resist a system that allows for endless tweaking.

So you actually chose KDE, right?

You mean like fuck the whole world in the ass like it’s happening now?

Isn’t it on flathub?
