Squid or not, the ends justify the means!

I love the Mac shortcuts for screen capture, I’ve even added them to my Linux Gnome desktop shortcuts to do the same.

strongarm ,

I also stayed with windows, then went to Mac before Linux.

However the simple reason I chose these shortcuts is because I have a 60% tenkeyless keyboard, so there is no Print screen button! 😁

strongarm ,

I was under the impression this was done automatically when in full-screen, are you sure this isn’t the case?

strongarm ,

Reckon this is worth picking up on sale? I’m interested in it having played all the previous games, but I’m worried the battle pass and mtx is ruining it.

Now it’s been out for a few seasons what do you think?

Interactive Loading Screens - High Hell

Developing interactivity is effort and an investment. Most developers put up a simple loading screen, maybe some text like rotating tips, and a loading indicator. Until 2015 a patent on interactive loading screens may have made developers and publishers cautious and decide against developing interactivity....

There was an old Spectrum Game that actually loaded up Pacman first before the main game.

strongarm ,

Yeah I can’t remember my game either, it might have been something like Joe Blade 3?

strongarm ,

Never use your desktop to store shortcuts, unless they are very temporary, and then clear up often.

You have a taskbar and start menu to organise and find everything you need, you can even do startup applications.

strongarm ,

Keeping what you’re working on available.

It’s not a fileing system

There was a film with Michael Keaton recently

Last Epoch online issues are resolved now.

I love the character concept with Sabin, it was peak Street Fighter II days for me too, so doing the Bumrush with Sabin was so awesome

Teacher who resigned after her OnlyFans page was discovered says new employer fired her for violating social media policy (www.kbtx.com)

Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her....

strongarm ,

Because maybe they actually love being a teacher?

strongarm ,

I picked up one the other week for similar reasons to you, and apart from the other suggestions you’ve received I would recommend:

  • Olli Olli - quick to play skateboarding game
  • Helldivers - still find MP games
  • Grim Fandango - get it for the soundtrack

You can add the Uplay installer as a non steam game and it runs ok that way

The finals game doesnt run on linux so i switched back to windows 11.

Linux is all good if you only play singleplayer games. My friends started playing the finals yesterday and it doesn’t run on linux because of EAC. Windows can run all my games without any proton switching and all the nvidia features like ray reconstruction and pathtracing with frame generation just works (alan wake 2 looks so...

strongarm ,

It’s configured from EAC, not in code.

Remnant From the Ashes: They call it a Souls-like with guns, I’m not sure I totally agree, but there are similarities with the checkpoints and NG+ mechanic. It’s a shortish game. Plays well in coop, and is made tomplay through a few times as levels are procedurally generated. The second game is out now, but there are still players on this.

Astral Ascent: Kind of a rogue-like action platformer, the game seems straightforward at the beginning but as you try new runs and unlock more skills there is a very deep build and progression system where you can get super powerful and the screen goes wacky. Also the music and atmosphere is top notch. Oh it’s only just been released, but it has been in early access for +6 months, so sorry, not sorry.

strongarm ,

No, definitely not, it’s everything else.

Previous versions of Windows, Mac OSX but also desktop Linux too.

strongarm ,

I’m not sure the worst year is specific to game developers though, the whole world is under economic squeeze, take a look at the layoffs in the tech industry.

strongarm ,

Am I mistaken or are there loads of games this month for PS+ Essential, where usually there are 3?

strongarm ,

I definitely enjoyed it, but I found it tiring to watch at times, not only did I have to concentrate on all the motion during the expansive fight and traversal scenes but during that time the characters didn’t shut up!

So much chat and quips with intense action, it got hard to really follow at times.

strongarm ,

I hope this series picks up, I feel like S2 was a bit too self aware

Looking for game recommendations

I’m a casual gamer who’s been largely inactive for the past few decades, and so I’m looking for some some good game recommendations. I don’t mind if they’re old as long as they came out after 2003 (because that’s when graphics of many games really started improving), maybe between 2008-2019. I’m also quite a picky...

strongarm ,

From the looks of your lists of what you like and what to avoid I think you’d like games like the Dishonored series, Bioshock, and the System Shock remake.

strongarm ,

Weird page

strongarm ,

Newbies for what though? I’d be surprised a Linux newbie would find themselves on this page, I’m not really sure who this is for

strongarm ,

Are you having a nice rant?

strongarm ,

It’s not the same as critical theory, but it does have a crossover in concerns

strongarm ,

No, they are totally not related, critical theory is from the 1930s, Woke is from 2010

strongarm ,

That, my dude, is something you will have to take a journey on.

strongarm ,

I do know, but it’s not my place to change your beliefs, you need to do that yourself.

strongarm ,

Yes, but you need to work with a porting company or pay for proprietary software

strongarm ,

The best way to do this would be to make the company Employee Owned

strongarm ,

Sounds like Godot is more for your usecase then

What to play after experiencing Chrono Trigger?

Left feeling a bit empty after playing it for the first time a few months ago(why did I wait so long?) I am afraid no JRPG will be able to surpass it. Would love to have a discussion about similar games that reach the same quality level (Note: I have already played Final Fantasy VI ).

strongarm ,

Can you give me some tips?

I’ve come back to this game to give it another shot since it was originally released, I never really enjoyed it or got past the first entry into the future.

This time round I’ve just gained access to the prehistoric world, although I’m not sure I should visit here yet, and I have got parts of the Masamune sword, I beat the two kids recently, but I’m basically lost and without a quest log in game I don’t know what ime supposed to be doing next, any ideas?

strongarm ,

Amazing thank you

strongarm ,

They haven’t re-released the game, it’s just an update that removes the DRM which they have to continue to pay for otherwise

strongarm ,

Isn’t this the outcome from it all?

Rational people who aren’t fanboys or haters buy and play games with low expectations, and are rarely disappointed.

strongarm ,

They should put the money into education instead

strongarm ,

Agreed, the best attempt was the subscription model for mmorpgs, but even that hasn’t been ubiquitous

Commando: A Home Port Comparison (i.imgur.com)

Commando (released as Senjō no Ōkami in Japan, Wolf of the Battlefield) is a 1985 Capcom arcade shooter. Word to the wise: Commando isn’t based on the Schwarzenegger movie of the same name - that’s some false knowledge I’ve carried round with me for close to forty years… oh, how I’ve embarrassed myself at dinner...

strongarm ,

Wow can’t believe the old Atari and Intellivision even had ports.

The old Intellivision was an interesting console, with a dialpad and spin disk for a controller and speech synthesiser add-on. I will never forget “B 17 Bomb b ber”

strongarm ,

In my experience it’s like 2 players have full agency to play independently, unlike other coop games where the experience for player two is often driven by player one.

In BG3 you can run off in completely different directions, engage with your own NPCs in conversation while the other player starts a fight and it’s seamless

strongarm ,

They’re a strange developer are Fatshark, clearly very talented creatively, but their business side needs improvement.

Poor choices but with MTX and their project management is dire
