Ah yes, I forgot folks with ADHD are also insane. /s

For folks with ADHD, like myself, slow talking video essays are a special kind of hell.

The problem with days old threads is I never remember the context. Looks like they were asking if Steams data would be more reliable. Tbh, I think Steam is great for gaming stats, not for general use stats. Statcounter supposedly uses what the browser reports when participating websites are visited.

I’m happy to see more Linux gamers don’t get me wrong. Steam is specifically gathering specs on people who game, the other stat counter (that reports 4% Linux use) is based on what people’s browsers are reporting.

Steam is only installed on one of my computers, I have at least four running Linux. Not to mention plenty of Linux users don’t game at all, so probably not.

Not every game needs PvP. Helldivers is more of a wave shooter with it’s design intent, so players are scaled to numerous weaker foes, not other players. Balancing for PvP would be a pain, and unnecessary since there are a ton of PvP third-person shooters already.

So this comment made me do some research.

Under “Known Proton Issues” the point “Anti cheat”. Seems like there is a user-space solution for Proton, avoiding the need for a kernel-space anti cheat.

It’s not perfect, and be as paranoid as you see appropriate, but I’m a bit relieved to have found that info. Another win for Proton in my book.

No wonder Bandai Namco are making big statements about game quality. They just lost their golden goose.

Sure, but only after Bloodborne. The PS4 gem locked to one console matters far more to me than the PS5 remake of a PS3 game that I could emulate no problem.

Passion makes better games than deadlines.

Let them cook.

Being carried by From Software, who if I recall are going to be self publishing now?

Obligatory Bloodborne when?

Yeah, my mind has completely separated conservation with conservative. Most folks I know concerned with conservation efforts, are progressive. Most conservatives I know, want to watch the world burn to turn a profit.

Okay but if progress means validating people who are made to feel invalid by a lack of progress, we’re just in the tolerance paradox with different words.

I appreciate your honest response but, I haven’t heard those intentions from anyone claiming to be conservative until just now.

I think it’s fine to celebrate traditions, even fine to share them when asked, or offer to share them with people you know. My family makes these really specific pancakes for holidays, I love making those, great tradition. Some families deny their children basic healthcare because, traditionally their faith tells them to and that’s child abuse, awful tradition. I get what you mean but it’s a pretty shaky argument. As for waiting and reacting, how much longer do we need to wait to react to things like climate change, the homelessness epidemic, the opioid crisis, childhood cancer? If any of your traditions are against solving those problems, I’m sorry but I’m against those traditions and they aren’t compatible with modern society.

I’m curious, why not find a new title for your political beliefs, and shame modern conservatives who line their pockets with money from big corporations? Sounds like the conservative badge isn’t quite reflecting what you’d like it to anymore.

Then maybe it’s time to start considering if conservative values have a place in our world? What does being conservative entail other than limiting the freedoms of other humans and refusing to spend money on anything but the military? Please give me a legitimate reason why we need to resist progress?

Just saw the article about early access premium players having the game auto-complete on first login. DRM should be the last thing on their minds.
