mr_MADAFAKA , in Valve Says Counter-Strike 2 for macOS Not Happening Because There Aren't Enough Players on Mac to Justify It
@mr_MADAFAKA@lemmy.ml avatar

And also Source 2 engine only supports Directx 11 and Vulkan

NENathaniel , in Microsoft estimated Valve’s revenue in 2021 at $6.5bn Interesting to see another view on the scale of Valve’s business

My understanding is that, because they’re a private company, all we can do is vaguely guess

MJBrune , in Nice?

This is why I never add anyone from a single game as policy. “Sorry, if I added everyone from a single game, my friends list would be filled to the brim with random people I played with once.” It’s a nice policy that lets everyone down easy.

JoshuaSlowpoke777 , in Anybody saw the outage? I didn't realize it happened

Is the Irish Sun owned by the same guys as the British version of The Sun? If so, I probably would look for other sources entirely. Preferably far, far away from the “games journalism” sphere.

TheOctonaut ,

Not only is it owned by the same guys, it is the same paper with a few stories and photos changed to tone down British chauvinism and make it not immediately horrifying to an Irish person to read.

abc , in Do you think the steam search is bad?

It is not the best. Instead, I use SteamDB to search for games.

raiun ,

Yes to SteamDB. Easier to find if random sales are good or not as well.

It is now Overwhelming Negative

Probably just watching the line go down and your crypto becomes worthless.

@TragicNotCute@lemmy.world avatar

Nah, come on. You’re misrepresenting crypto.

You mine and mine and mine, sell it for cash, and then watch the line go UP and never ever shut up about your bad break to anyone who will listen.

Fubarberry , in Anyone else tested the new recording feature?
@Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz avatar

Yeah, seems to work pretty well on my Steam Deck. It’s probably using more power, but it’s a small enough increase that I couldn’t confirm increased power draw without exporting mangohud values and averaging them.

I dropped the recorded length to 30min (mainly just want time to grab a noteworthy clip if something funny happens).

KickMeElmo ,

I measured using Iconoclasts (low power game) and using default settings it took about 1.4W. Pretty minimal drain honestly.

PhobosAnomaly , in mr president had a small spike in players after the incident

Reminds me of the classic JFK Reloaded. Decent for it’s time.

Is this some kind of Ponzi scheme? The “devs” and Valve get cuts every time some idiots buy those items.

CaptainBasculin ,

It’s a different scheme. While the developers can print as many items as they want if they want to, the prices are entirely made out by the community. So they just manipulate the odds to make some items rarer. If they print the same items, the price will fall right off.

However why the game has this much players is that its really easy to bot.

muhyb ,

I see, it does not match all the properties of Ponzi scheme. But those people are idiots. And Valve really should intervene this since similar titles already popped up. Basically there is no end to that.

I wish GOG had local prices like Steam.

Bogasse , in What do you think of this prediction?
@Bogasse@lemmy.ml avatar

Steam, my Steam library and Proton could disappear. But at least it will have supported a big traction in the ecosystem : Wine, DXVK, Lutris, Heroic Launcher, Bazzite, etc… are all open source projects (so they can’t really disappear) that have never moved as fast as they are today.

ChallengeApathy , in God of War Ragnarok will require a PSN account

malchior , in Sony removed Helldivers 2 from sale in countries where PSN is not available. For example whole CIS region.

A Japanese business making stupid business decisions? Why I never…

Unfortunately, this will probably scuttle the game, if another company can get a similar game out in a reasonable time frame it’s probably GG.

Numenor , in List of countries that cannot make a PSN account, following the Helldivers 2 controversy.

The combined estimated total population of those countries would be roughly around 4.6 to 4.7 billion people.

Jolteon ,

So, literally more than half the world.

jol ,

But corporations see $$ so it’s the half of the world that isn’t important.

SuddenDownpour ,

After taking a look at the map, this sounds very, VERY off.

Brosplosion ,

Only off about 3 billion or so, not that far!

elrik ,

Right? I was too lazy to double check, but yeah, the original claim seems absurd considering it’s missing at least the top 5 most populated countries representing nearly 4 billion people.

Numenor ,

Hehehe

ChrisHatesGeese ,

Counterpoint: no it isn’t.

Donebrach , (edited ) in List of countries that cannot make a PSN account, following the Helldivers 2 controversy.
@Donebrach@lemmy.world avatar

Can we get a similar map of Helldivers 2 players, based on location, prior to the change?
