It also expands when you hover over it

Which is only really needed for hosting a torrent, something most people don’t do. Most VPN users do not even know what torrenting is and most torrent users are leechers so they don’t use it either.

As a genre? I would say no. Cyberpunk is usually described as a capitalist dystopia in which a handful of companies supersede government powers and wage wars against each other beyond the concepts of national borders. In addition, cybernetic enhancements become commonplace, as a way for companies to extract more value from their workers. Cyberpunk stories usually are about groups rebelling against the system through organized crime, who ultimately fail to escape the underlying system of capitalism, doomed to repeat history time and time again.

HL2 falls in none of the genre stereotypes. While it is dystopian, it’s not capitalist, so it’s not “punk” and it isn’t “cyber” either because of a lack of commonplace cybernetics.

[Encased mentioned] I love that game

Additionally:

• while the food will taste the same, in most cases the mouth feel is so horrendously bad it will be inedible
• rehydration of most foods is very hard to impossible, limiting it’s uses even more
• if you put more than one kind of food in a batch, the chance of error in the process increase dramatically, because all food needs different amounts of time to dry

I’m pretty sure the only actual use cases are berries and fruits. But those can all just be dehydrated normally or made into jam, so there is little to no purpose for a freeze dryer, except playing around with foods, which is not worth the price

11 is one louder than 10!

I can recommend “Encased”. It’s a CRPG that’s heavily inspired by Fallout gameplay wise, but it’s modernized a lot (in a good way). It has its own unique story and setting which are amazing to explore

Encased is a CRPG, heavily inspired by the classic Fallout games, bringing it’s mechanics into the modern age. It’s story is based on the classic book “Roadside Picknick” (known for being the inspiration of the Stalker series) and is very well written. It has a story narrator, similar to the Divinity: Original Sin games and a very in depth character creation. At the start you choose a department of a research company to work in, which will change the way you interact with many characters, adding some replay value. Anything more I could say would be a spoiler, but the entire beginning (first half to one hour) is an absolute banger.

It’s my favorite indie game of the last few years and at the time of writing this, it is currently 90% of on steam, an absolute bargain

Uranium fever has done and got me down.

The article includes quotes by Joshua Sawyer, best known to be the director of FNV. They should have put his name or actual position in the title to avoid a confusing headline

I finally beat the game this week and with this I might just play it again to try and beat the time limit difficulty. I really hope their improvement of the final fight will be good, as right now it is just underwhelming

Pretty sure that it’s not possible. You can only download with an account or use another website hosting that mod.

But honestly, just use a throwaway email. That’s way less work than what you are trying to do

First people complain that there are to many people on lemmy.

Then the number of people decreases

Now people complain about that to

Can we please just stop caring about the numbers and instead focus on making a nice place for ourselves?

In that case there is little difference to just sharing a save file, which everybody can already do. If this is everything that the patent covers, then I’m against them having a patent for it. That idea is so generic and nothing somebody should be allowed to have control over

Sounds cool and all but I heavily doubt they would do the work to implement it like that. Replay value doesn’t add market value in the view of the producers. So there is not much money to be made from the large amount of work this requires.

Of course if they ever do it, feel free to correct me, people from the future

… sooooo … chapters?

Well, thanks for that in-depth answer. It’s nice to talk about the actual contets of a game for once, instead of only talking around it like it’s usually the case nowadays.

It’s very interesting to hear about all this. I actually think there are a lot of games with far worse monetisation (think all the Airplane/Train simulators where you can buy singular vehicles for hundreds of dollars).

I’ll probably won’t play it tho, I don’t have the money, Conputing Power, or time lol

Honest question I have been wondering:

Why SC out of all the space sim/sandbox games? Is there anything that this game has that no other game provides? Something about the community, a combination of features, gameplay loop or something else?

There are hundreds of games in that genre but many people obviously like SC so much that they are willing to spend larger amounts of money on it. I really wonder what it is exactly or if it’s just the general feel that game has. It’s not an easy question to answer from an outside perspective, its hard finding anything about SC at all except about its monitisation.

And again: I’m genuinely curious and not judging. People can like whatever game they want and spend as much money as they are willing to part with. I have often searched for an answer to this, but most articles/videos either say “expensive crap” if they don’t like it or don’t go beyond “it’s a space sim” if they do.

The Headline isn’t everything that’s going on.

This is not the first time something like this happened, some months back someone upload a mod that removed all rainbow flags from the spiderman game. Im guessing its the exact same thing like the last time: Someone made a new account to upload a mod that was only made to spark controversy. The mod itself didn’t matter, the author is just a troll that wanted a reaction from this. They knew they would get banned so they made a new account. Nexus has the same stance on this as last time: they don’t platform trolls so they removed it. It’s not about the mod, it’s about the authors intentions, which are to harm the platform
