I don't like that, but I'm still refraining from buying the game altogether because of it's ridiculous always-online requirement. The predecessor wasn't like that, and there's no reason for the singleplayer segments of a racing simulator who enjoyed extreme longevity through modding, to be stuck on remote servers that can and WILL be shut down at some point in the future.

Gran Tourismo 2 and 4, Ridge Racer Type 4, Burnout 3 Takedown and NFSU2/MW. I like a lot of racing games but these are my favorite retro ones.

It's THPS 3+4 Remaster. They finallt got to make that.

Splendid! I have a laptop running Arch, and while I did set that one up manually, it was a lot of work. Next time, when I do it on my gaming PC, I'm definitely using Endeavour

I honestly loved it almost instantly, especially with the aspect that each settlement is a short time investment of a gaming session with semi randomized goals and build orders to get to those. While there are still overarching goals for the game as a whole.

It looks real good, but I'm still playing Aginst thr Storm, and will probably give Farthest Frontier a try before goong into this one. Still, it's on my list!

Yes that's what I said. PS3 era games and at this point, early PS4 start yo qualify for me. Although still actively developed games aren't "fully" retro, clearly. I'm still on the fence about calling Bloodbkrne retro, for instance.

Around 2 generations of consoles ago, or around 10 years, whatever comes "first".

Pokemon or other turn based games that were originally designed for portables usually work great for a commute! Also monster hunter, I played a lot of that on the subway back in the day on my 3DS. Thr PSP games might be easy to emulate.

Of course they did.

Yeah I replaced mine with Gulikit sticks after they started drifting while playing BotW. They were surprisingly easy to service, no soldering or special tools required.

I know it isn't what you mentioned but it reminded me when I wad reading anyway. I am quite hyped for the new Heroes of Might and Magic.

I've never even dared to make an account there to ask questions because they've always been toxic as fuck. And lately they've been going about pivoting to AI, after they sorta monopolized the "business" of answering questions on several subjects... They can go eat my ass with that shit and attitude.

Oh fuck thanks for the warning.

Most of them have no idea what they're talking about, and sometimes those who do, are making a video just for entertainment purposes or got paid (in getting a free game key) to not say anything too bad about it.

This sjow goes so much wilder than just "haha, let's cook monsters" and I love it

I got pretty much the same opinion as you, probably a bit angrier about all the shit they did, with Unreal Tournament, their store and spyware and exclusives, and their unoptimized bloated game engine taking over the industry.

So no, I guess I don't claim those games or have an account. I already have a million games I'll never finish playing on Steam and emulators anyway.

Yes. Next stupid question.

Oh hey capitalism wants to create the Daemonculaba.

I hate that feeling of bouncing between things, or of just staring at my screen so much. So much. But when it happens, I am rarely able to snap out of it in the moment. It usually takes a few days and a mood change to fix it.
