What’s the latest build weight in at?

It’s so many gigs, it’s not even worth trying every so often. Every time you load it, gigs to download.

Glad I only ever spent the initial $60

The first big disappointment was the end of the funding rewards. Is any of those original rewards even noticable? Oh yay a fish! And a 42 towel to look at!

I try to follow the emails also but its a hot mess. I can never understand any interesting developments. Its like reading AI jibberish.

The ending is stupid. It’s fuckin dumb.

I will advertise this to my friends, they have lots of young people in their circles that go through games at a good pace. This looks right up their alley.

Think of it this way

There’s your core of the system, the kernel part. It’s the engine of the thing but basically its the package manager. This is what Ubuntu, Redhat, Arch, etc is. It’s all interchangeable in some ways and also locked into a specific place you get your packages and updates. It could be any desktop and all of the desktop environments or just a command line.

So more often than not, the core will favor a specific desktop environment. You can always install multiple environments and they’ll work but there’s some things that are suited for one desktop environment over the other. Many of the basic apps don’t work outside their environments. KDE apps don’t always work in Gnome and vis versa.

So when you download Ubuntu, your basically says give me the package manager that points to the Ubuntu repositories that will understand your version of the core and give you prepackaged software that is meant to work with Gnome.

If you go with Kubuntu you’ll get the same treatment but with the KDE desktop environment and all of its basic stuff.

But you can install KDE on Ubuntu and you can install Gnome on Kubuntu.

You can mix and match all the desktops if you want but at some point it does cause problems because the developers make different decisions and use different software that you’re package manager has to deal with.

So some distros do things different, have different configurations and package managers. I use Arch which uses pacman (package manager) to give you core software that they keep up-to-date and test but it’s limited in what it offers. So instead it has an AUR that can be accessed though many different sub package managers, like yay

I could go on but I hope this makes a little sense about the difference in distribution and desktop environments.

If you want a Windows 98 style desktop, look at KDE. It’s a lot like how Windows works

if they turned the procedural generator at people, food, supplies and weapons instead of the landscapes… game would have been amazing

the other problem was traveling, they needed to make travel a painful burden… because when it became a quick loading screen and you are there… omfg it ruins the stories the npc’s are trying to tell

wtf you left your crew out here to die?! it took me 5 minutes to get here…

if only they had put out a AAAAA quality game

Huffman Shitshow

LoL

I love nms. I have thousands of screenshots from this game going back to the first day of launch. Man how it’s changed. I only really play the expeditions now but I still love it so

GTA5 and RD2 play perfectly well in linux. You don’t have to do much to make it work either. Stop spreading bullshit

There was global leader boards way back in the day. I think it was called the Quake World League, it was one that would count Counter-Strike. I am not 100% but I think it used gamespy to do much of its work. I remember when it showed millions of people active and I was able to reach a top 20 in Counter-Strike one week. I was able to break the top 100 many times before it changed.

An AI voice with zero emotion

It wasn’t added after launch. You could bypass it. Now they are changing that.

Eh, I knew it when I bought it. I didn’t know better and signed up. I wasn’t tricked and we all started the game that first time and were told about it

Yeah I hear that. At one point I was thinking why didn’t they turn the ai generator on the random shit instead of the world. Like there’s all these worlds and only one package type for everything? The immersion could have been amazing if there was 50 different packages of Chunks or whatever.

Red Dead is a work of art. It’s just shameful that Rockstar has neglected it.

Starfield is such a piece of shit, it actually gets me upset thinking about how bad of an experience it was. I finished it just so I would know how it turns over and I’m still angry about it. Thankfully I waited until it was less than $50

I upgrade when I kill my phone. There’s just no other reason to do it otherwise
