It pissed me off when I went through the intro cutscene, and after jumping into the helicopter blades, it started the whole cutscene again.

But that’s what’s happening, games like AC2 are being taken from people.

How the hell were people supposed to know that the game would be taken from them when they bought it? You are aware that clear communication on that issue is literally one of the objectives of Stop Killing Games?

Have you done any thinking & reflection on why people support the campaign? It feels like you’re desperately throwing arguments against the wall to see what sticks, even though nothing actually makes sense.

First, how the hell did you get that from what I wrote?

Second, do you really think art is this replaceable? “Oh, we don’t need old movies and music, we have better ones now, so let’s just take away the copies people have already bought”? What a sad way to look at art.

Because it’s a massive time and money investment, because the market and gaming landscape has changed, because mechanics and approaches can be patented, …

It’s a game with a story. You can’t just create a literal copy of that story since it connects to the story of the games before and after it. Come on, this isn’t hard to understand.

Of course it’s ridiculous and untrue. You can’t “just” develop a game like Assassins Creed 2.

I’m not aware of really any small developers pulling stunts like Ubisoft is doing. And there’s always the option to limit new laws to bigger publishers, like the EU is doing with the DMA.

The art argument is not nonsense, not sure where you get the idea. Games like Assassin’s Creed 2 have influenced many people in their design choices for their own games.

And of course there’s something wrong when a company takes away access to singleplayer games you bought, just because they use always-online DRM and don’t want to pay for the servers. These games don’t take away space from new games, it’s a ridiculous idea that them dying off is improving the situation for new games. It’s also ridiculous to think “hey, someone can just develop a game like the old one!”.

How is it selfishness to want to keep the product you bought? To preserve things that contribute to art and culture?

Yeah, can’t recommend Aurora enough. It’s awesome to have literally 0 driver issues, since the system image already contains the drivers pre-installed.

Thanks for the recommendation! I’m specifically looking for a text guide that outlines the tech progression - doesn’t have to be in-depth, just a rough “first get this kind of thing, then this one”.

These kinds of games tend to be a bit opaque for me, having such a guide would allow me to read up on things when I can’t progress myself. Do you happen to know one?

Yeah, quite the surprise. They really fucked up with the previous-to-last update and left the game broken way longer than acceptable, but it’s nice that they’re improving things a bit now.

Is there a good overview of the progression somewhere? I vaguely remember buying it a while ago, but couldn’t really get into it.

Except for necessary modern features like different fractional scaling on multiple monitors…

Not sure what you mean - “Mario and Princess Beach” is obviously peak cinema

Again, please be explicit. Do you think the mod was created & uploaded by FromSoft?

What exactly is your implication here? That FromSoft created & uploaded that mod by themselves, or what?

I’d interpret that as a local social network app, not map/navigation.

docker-machine doesn’t use emulation, it’s virtualization.

Oh, you should have mentioned that - or do you think that fsck is Memtest? It is not.

Hm, unfortunately nothing obvious. And your last boot ended with a crash?

Nevertheless you could try running a Memtest (this can take a while) - it will check whether any of your RAM modules are faulty: https://www.memtest.org/

That’s unfortunately a bit cut off. Could you run this again with the following command? sudo journalctl -xeb -1 --no-pager
