Mamoulian War

Nope, they’re to busy crafting lootboxes.

I understood it more in lin of Steam and Epic. The only MS games on GoG are from companies, which published their games on GoG, before they were bought out.

The hold my beer phrase started with this story http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2015/07/hold-beer-story-tommy-fitz-drunken-bet/ It's just bet, that I can do much crazier ****, than you

If I understood it correctly, it is Epic and MS store timed exclusive for PC. Correct me if I am wrong. We’ll see if MS will allow this on GOG at some point in the future or the Obsidian will be gone from there forever, like other MS games.

@Malcador Well, this industry was never shy to hide serious lack of work behind some flashy prerendered cutscenes

I think there might be a lot of potential employees available at Blizzard given the current circimstances

I bet they’re now be willing to announce even Blackthorne Remaster, just to try to overshadow the current drama

Well I agree more with Chilloutman on this. There are two ideal outcomes of the situation. Typical Sith/Jedi choice. a) you act as a Blizzard and care about money first, and CCP will force on you their morals and vision and let them control you. b) you stay one with the western value and risk losing business there. Ideally, if this solution is condoned enough with western governments and corporations, that could mean some pressure on CHN. They will not be able to to ban every western company, because the needed money income. The situation at the moment is, that West feeds snake on its breasts for years, and this snake had grown up long time ago and starts to bite back.

Victoria II finally on GOG, but the game does not support multiplayer if you care about it. Pricing is little bit to high for 9 year old game IMO. But yrah, sooner or later I've cave in https://www.gog.com/news/release_victoria_ii

It has no direct impact on what happens there, but if the customers does not raise their voice now, it will have serious impact in the long turn, on all our lives. Because if nothing happens, big money will be encouraged to continue in their footsteps and CCP will through them continue to attempt to control our freedom of expresion...

Very good video with a lot of arguments and a timeline of the Hong Kong protests by a guy, whom livelihood depends on Overwatch, and what is happening there, including slaughters. Watch it and think more about it. Same thing was happening in central and eastern europe during the late 80s, when I was in my early teenage years. In some of the countries, there were also lot of people slaughtered. West gave us helping hand during that time, and I think West should do the same now as well. If you allow few shareholders to censor your freedom now, and do not speak up, you will end up in the situation in which my country was between 1948 and 1989. My Granddad was imprisoned because he also tried to express his freedom of speech during that time, because he openly critisized Communist Party. Shortly after being released from prison, he died with not so clear circumstances few months after my Dad was born. Afterwards my whole family was forcefully relocated to another part of the country, they got stripped of all of their possesions, with no monetary reimbursement, and the comming years some of father’s siblings were denied education and job applicatuons. Free speech matters now more, that anytime before. That’s why boycotting Activision Blizzard should matter for all of us as well... Our entertainment should not have bigger value than other poeple lives...

This is the first thing, which for some reason came to my head after reading your request. It's probably not what you search for though, but it's both space and strategy and has iirc some meteors as well. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_Legacy

Laymen style the guy is really producer in CDPR Krakow

New exclusive Cyberpunk interview is out!

Looks like we have today International Day against DRM Sooo let's celebrate https://www.defectivebydesign.org/dayagainstdrm/2019 https://www.gog.com/news/join_us_in_support_of_the_international_day_against_drm

Despite that, they were getting all these years free pass, just because of that "Blizzard" word in the company name. Looks like the pass is no longer free

Video response on it by SidAlpha. From marketing point of view, there is a reason, why statements like this are published on Friday Night

Pfft. I wanted to be the recreator of Germany, not some puny Preussen!!!

Well, you still have freedom to be law abiding citizen or be jailed and it heavily depends on the country, which of the two options is more honorable

Well, I've spent 1 more hour with the game. It started to give little bit of sense, and very soon after my yesterdays save, Prussia started war with Austria, first I've sided with Austria, and I was obliterated within few minutes, after reload, I've sided with Prussia, And I was able to annex 8 more provinces from different German states, and I made it among Great Powers I have slowly started to build up my war ruined economy, and prepared to fight against one more German state in the south. Then out of the blue Prussia started war against France, which I've joined, but immediately after the war, Prussia got event, in which they unified Germany. For me, that was immediate Game over I could resist the unification, but having only 14 provinces against this juggernaut would be just a fast Game Over as well I was still able to end up on 9th place in the prestige ranking, which meant 1 place away from staying as Great Power. The biggest negatives in the game, is very weak diplomacy. You can't offer diplomatic annexation to your neighbours, nor ask for reinforcements. The major power in the war must feel like to offer you their units, if you need to defend against big enemy as well. And so on... Anyway, now that I understand the game little bit more, I would probably try to play with some other country, and try to be more warmongering, Thinking about some South or Central American Country. We'll see how it goes.

Started Victoria: Revolutions. So far the most confusing Paradox game for me. Spent around 4 hours on it yesterday, and I still feel, that I do not know, what’s going on. The POP management and army creation is the most confusing part for me. Anyway started with OPM in Germany (Saxe-Weimar) slowly started to build up the economy and then slowly won over and annexed Krakow, Frankfurt and Saxony. So I am currently having 6 provinces and 100k manpower. I am making most of my cash with selling my inventions to Prussia and Austria, and sometimes giving away some of them to Africa countries, to have better chance against their oppressors Still I would need some more provinces, but every other German province is guaranteed by Austria or Prussia, so attacking them, would be fast game over for me

More news about #boycottblizzard Cancelled accounts by some big spenders and long time players, and also today there was an internal protest in the company.

Mamou to the rescue!!! https://consolevariations.com/variation/console/playstation-4-plants-vs-zombies https://consolevariations.com/variation/console/spyro-reignited-trilogy-playstation-4-slim

I always waited to buy the first slim model, after the first addopters tested out all bugs Now I skipped slim and purchased directly the pro version on release, and I will probably do the same for PS5 as well, unless sony decides to completely “censor” japanese games. The only thing, which could test my patience would be Tales of Arise PS5 version O.o
