yeah, I grow up on playing MP games and it was just fine. I usually avoid anything made for 'large audience' - it usually translate to bland

Blizzard definitely isn't targeting small audiences with their games. Also just because we grew up in cesspools doesn't mean we can't hope for a more civil landscape in the future.

I've been watching the Qanon documentary stuff and I'm not entirely sure that the generation that grew up online recently is "just fine".

RIP Stadia November 19, 2019 - January 18, 2023. A google product line abandoned, surely a first.

To be perfectly honest, Stadia lasted a year longer than I thought it would. Soooo... Good... Job?:shrugz:

Companies keep putting the cart in front of the horse by trying to make cloud gaming happen when the infrastructure isn't there yet. I mean, if you live in Mountain View, CA there's a pretty good chance Stadia will run beautifully on your 8 Trillion Terabyte bandwith internet. Not everybody has that internet.

Bandwidth at least isn't an insurmountable problem. The added display and input lag on the other hand...

But... but... the multiplayer NetHack I played at Uni worked just fine! I still remember when my '@' took on two 'h's and a 'g' at the same time. No lag whatsoever!

That's not a fair comparison. Nethack is vastly superior to most MP games these days. 

I was a ZAngband man myself, but that was exclusively SP.

Wasn't there drama about this already some months ago? One of the guys left and some woman took over the writer role? Can't remember the details.

Tbh not surprising to me. A game like Disco Elysium really seems to be a one-in-a-million kind of scenario. Can't imagine this to get topped anytime soon.

Luiga signs off on the post as writing from "Tallinn Inpatient Treatment Centre of Psychiatry Clinic, Ward IX." Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, is where ZA/UM first coalesced. It's unclear to me if the location signature is a genuine indication of Luiga's current state, or an extremely dark joke.

If it was a joke, it made me burst out laughing; if it wasn't a joke, well...it still made me laugh. RIP their dev group, still need to play through that game.

How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart.

In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Seasonally appropriate spooky gaming is just over a week away (October 14).

I'm pretty excited for this. I'm not usually big into body horror, but I love the vibe Scorn is giving off. Supposedly, while it does have some shooting, it's much more of an adventure/puzzle game than it is an action game. As a bonus, it's day 1 on Game Pass. I've already got it pre-loaded on my xXxBOxXx.

I've been watching the Qanon documentary stuff and I'm not entirely sure that the generation that grew up online recently is "just fine".

Dont mistake those Americans who are part of culture wars and groups like Qanon as representing everyone from that generation, they not. They extremists and not everyone is an extremist :thumbsup:

CDPR needs to commit to another trilogy of Witcher games, gaming companies should always stick to games that are guaranteed cash cows 💰
