I said that I understand that some people want to act unethically in games as a form of escapism for that you can’t do in real life, and that’s fine. But there should be ethical options for people who do want to build an ethical civilisation, as that also makes it more realistic in many ways, not all real civilisations have to start off with a feudal system and slowly progress in exactly the way the tech and civic trees work in civ6.

Is it? I’m reminded of Betteridge’s law of headlines

Fps usually stands for frames per second in this context

I just realised I have 3. 9K comments in just one year.

Pirating isn’t stealing anyway. Copying data doesn’t take the original data away from the place you copied it from. Stealing does remove the original object from its original location.

I like casual games, I don’t like the competitiveness or stress of some games, I only really play Minecraft multiplayer, and would play SDV MP too if I had someone to play with, but otherwise singleplayer is more relaxed.

Is the chair a reference to the floating sofa in Life, The Universe and Everything? It feels very tenuous, but that’s all I can think of.

That just sounds peaceful to me, and I’m not usually one for horror.

Since they seem so interested in Linux, open source, and boosting currently niche technologies to mainstream, maybe they should make the Steam Deck RISC-V?

Very loaded and negative title. People wanted to make Flappy Bird publically available again, sincd its creator took it down indefinitely.

I don’t get this. Charge a reasonable price for the game, which should include all in game content. Don’t make people pay for the game and then for more stuff in the game, especially if it gives them an unfair advantage over other players just for having paid.

All of these would be fixed by banning in game purchases with real money.

Android has Java through Pojav Launcher

Java doesn’t have microtransactions and all mods and updates are free.

They literally said that

And trains

And disappearing people

And space exploration

And having totalitarian control over internet access in their country - the great firewall of China

That’s a garden path sentence of a headline

I don’t have a Steam Deck and probably won’t get one, but I’m glad they exist, as it has made Linux gaming in general much better supported and simpler.

In the trailers and screenshots for civ6, it looked far more realistic graphics than the actual gameplay, so despite seeing lots of cool looking things that are marketed as civ7, I still really have no idea what the game will actually look like.

Is that the Minecraft font?
