I tend to find myself defending dev’s of one game or another, but you are totally right about the weird/hostile nature around this game when it comes to people backing BSG. 

Whoa! Thank you, i was talking to a friend about this as I do a lot of practice mode and sometimes really just want to play the looter shooter elements without actual players as Im a bit older and don’t have the reaction times anymore to be competitive. I never thought that a mod like that would exist. Checking it out…

This is a such an unexpected headline to see. Considering that both are my favorites in their respective genres as well as just in recent game-time allocation, a very “up my alley” read.

Speaking of Tarkov, I haven’t seen Kotaku cover the recent controversy over some pretty damning cheating that had been taking place.…

Ok i just played this today on release with a friend doing 2 vs 2ai and we lost HOURS into it. Incredibly fun with a friend, the ai seems more challenging in co-op vs ai and really swaps their tactics around. Some games we rolled them, others we got completely wrecked. It feels really balanced and you need to have a…

nvermind. found the sails. But i guarantee it spends the majority of it’s existence running on fuel.

The guide he wrote is edge-lord trash with some very common playstyle ideas thrown in-between. It’s bloody abysmal.
The guide was taken by a portion of the community as a sort of sage hard-mode method, but at the time the egotistical manner of the guide was seen as satire. While this nightmare started happening,…

Generally in the office you are provided with better equipment than one would have at home. 12 years I’ve had non-commercial-grade equipment provided. Once the pandemic hit, freelance was becoming more of an option, hence invested equipment.
And I did take a portion of that equipment into the office because it wasn’t…

I’ve been asked to come to the office twice a week. I applied during WFH, expected consistent WFH, and now i’m having to come in to give a display of “attendance theatre” as I call it.
I put over $5000 into my home office, I’m incredibly comfortable and efficient, with perfect ultrawide calibrated moniters. In the…

Pressing a wet sani cloth against the running blade? If so, me too..

The guy who picked the thumbnail of a thumbnail sure doesn’t.

One of my favorites of all time, and just checking steam now it looks like I sank almost 300 hours into it over the years (200 probably during the opening of the pandemic). At the ~$36 CAD original price, I’ve paid around 12 cents per hour on this one.
Every time I come back to it, they’ve expanded and improved the…

edit: What sort of irks me with this kind of feedback is that this is the kind of cinematic you put a team of juniors on for a few weeks, and those poor folks get to see the internet tear them a new one in their first years of their career.
Hope they don’t take it to heart.

It’s almost like their core cinematic team at Fortiche is knee deep in finalizing a second season of one of the greatest animated series’ in the last 10 years.
From what I know working in the animation industry, there is nothing more annoying than being full-time on a major passion-project production and getting…

I’ve dumped hundreds of hours into many versions of DF, modded and not etc.
I intend to dump hundreds more into the steam version. I think i’ve spent more on the beer and pizza I got for my release day playthrough. I’m giving them my due respect paying the ample price for such an iconic game.
It’s got a few issues, and…

Just in time! Winter always sparks my return to Dwarf Fortress. Definitely giving this a shot. 

I think that’s why it hurts so much, I dropped $80 CAD on Civ6 day 1 and promptly uninstalled after realizing it was far too different for my liking. Came back to it with the DLC and it felt improved. Definitely still need the DLC but newcomers are certainly dodging the first fiscal hurdle.

Some of these are such a good deal it makes me sick to my stomach that I bought them on release.
Civ VI for $6?! *vomits blood
City Skylines has been on sale multiple times, but boy is that still always a good deal, except your gonna want that sweet DLC later on.

I could finally scoop total war warhammer II to complete…

I imagine there is a threshold of insurance vs how extreme of a situation are you willing to prepare for. 30 wackjobs with guns willing to use the product to smash their way out to steal the product being pretty extreme. And then consider if insurance is better than having said armed wackjobs being unable to leave in…

I’ve never really thought about the fact that I maybe don’t need to hate the Elden Ring crafting system, because you are right, it can be completely ignored and I most certainly stopped using it very quickly.
I’d agree that the weapon upgrades don’t really count. Maxing out your gear is all part of the game.
And yes I…

Just reminded me how much I disliked the crafting of minor items like temporary health or damage buffs in Elden Ring.
The equipment upgrades, totally fine. But the super weak potion crap was just needless. How many people actually crafted the horse food? I don’t think I used it once, ever.
