Short links work as well, it's just very finicky about recognizing them at all in either format.  I find refreshing the page seems to do the trick.

Feel like I would get motion sickness from that game in a couple of minutes.

2020 is shaping up to be a fantastic year theoretically, for me, at least:

Baldur's Gate III? Yes, please. I'll try some of that!

Realms Beyond! I was an avid backer, Josh Sawyer will design the lich tower. Who doesn't want a turn-based massive SP 3.5 galore CRPG?

and now, Amplitude has announced Humankind, as a true competitor to my beloved Civilization series. They did a fantastic job with their latest 4x game.

Here's a little teaser:

New Cyberpunk 2077 video for us. Has some spoilers in it, so anyone that doesn't want that should leave it.

Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

I mean, they flat out stated what it was in the end cinematic of Homeworld 2: a network of hyperspace gates that go throughout the galaxy.

Hm ok, thought it was something that opened the gate.  Still was a goofy thing to toss into the ending, then again HW2 was "eh" story wise. 

Curious how Gearbox and Randy will screw this up. I hope it goes Epic timed exclusive.

Reminds me that I actually never finished Homeworld 2. After playing through Homeworld 1 and Deserts of Kharak I wanted to take a short break but then somehow got distracted.

Here's hoping that they think too much outside the box and stick to the original formula.

Still have to finish DoK.  Maybe will just do it on easy to get it over with.

DoK kinda died because there is no modding. Big shame, because mods for that title would likely have been awesome.

Well the Homeworld games lent themselves well to recreating space battle scenes out of Star Wars and the like, whereas the same can't necessarily be said for the land-based combat of DoK. If you wanted to play a total conversion based on WWII or modern day combined arms RTS you are likely already well served by Steel Division and Wargame (to say nothing of the fact that DoK doesn't even have infantry modeled). As for a Dune 2 recreation, well, how many modders out there have the skill and gumption to script and animate a Sand Worm?

I'm not even talking about total conversions. A map and / or mission editor would have helped a lot already.

Wow... just went into the gog cyberpunk 2077 forum, and daaaaaaymn.. the amount of salt of cdproject reds decision to make a change that was basically free for them cost wise (Removing labels on male/female body and unlocking voices for the two genders) is ASTOUNDING. If they hadn't mentioned it, they most likely wouldn't have ever noticed, and it's not likely to affect the game in any significant way whatsoever.

****, I feel bad for the next Saints Row game, I reckon they are going to be blasted for "pandering to the SJW crowd"...
