Ew. Time to switch to BSD.

some things are better off dead

I think DtRH’s coverage of these things serve as good modern morality tales. Show them to dumb kids that want to be “content creators.” Fredrik’s already said he’s done covering lulcows for the most part. Unless something unique comes along like Nigel Cheese for example.

Honestly, 30 minutes is all the time DSP really deserves.

It’s also a huge shift from The previous Spider-Man games from the same studio. If you liked those and had the same expectations, you’ll be rightfully disappointed.

Go play Turbo Overkill.

Dealing with the personalities of other players was mine.

Their haters were going around and concern trolling that they were the same person. Anyone outside of the scene would take it as a stated fact and repeat it without knowing.

Lina rebranded as Hoshino Lina and is working on an open source implementation of Live2D now.

Since 1995 with The Terminator: Future Shock. All the well known bugginess of a Bethesda game goes at least that far back.

Even by the standards of the time, it’s not very good. If you already have it, then try it. Otherwise, it’s cheap on GoG and I would still wait for a sale.

I replay it every now and then as a part of my normal rotation. I still can never remember what the final boss is like. The mid game tower boss is much more memorable. The core problem with Q4 is it had an idenity crisis. It was trying to be a classic Quake game, a CoD-like and a Halo-like all at the same time.

I have issues with old DOSBox games. Has anyone ever gotten Star Wars Rebel Assault 1 or 2 running?

Noooooooooo. They were suppose to kill each other.

Bungie wasn’t a Mac exclusive company. They were a Mac first company. Oni, the game they made right before Halo, was released to Windows and PS2 after it was released for Mac. Halo could have had just a big of an impact without being owned by Microsoft.

If Bungie stayed independent, Halo might have been a one and done game and they would have moved on to other IPs though.

About the same, but I would love to go to a lan party every now and then and actually game. I stopped going when people were more interested in sharing their puddle deep political takes instead of gaming and that was before gamergate. I can only imagine how bad it would be now.

People were more relaxed at lan parties and open server browser games. Rank tracking and matchmaking made everyone a sweaty gamer.

I thought that may have happened with Only Up!, but it may have only been temporally delisted for copyright violations by the developer.

Looks like it happens fairly often for bad G2A codes or other redeem code fraud, which seems fair. People report that you can get the money back as store credit.

To be fair to Steam, the DRM is optional for developers. You can pressure those developers not to use it. That being said, Steam could have a DRM tag so you could filter out the DRM games.

If I could play the two games from start to finish right now, I probably would. As it stands, I don’t regret sitting this out.

I miss when video game companies made video games and not “not live service models.”
