Cyberpunk Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I just thought I'd put in a post to let you know what I'm doing. And it's kinda sad, lol. I'm hooked on Eve Online!!! I've got loads of games digitally (Steam, Uplay, Ubisoft, Xbox One) and also subscribe to the Xbox game pass, and all I'm playing at the mo is Eve. To be honest I've wanted to play this game for years, but I've only just found out it now has gone free to play. It still has the subscription model and the free gamers are locked down in how far they can go, but I'm having so much fun with it. Even when I got my ass handed back to me after losing a destroyer class ship that cost me 3 million ISK once it was kitted out. I will come away from.it at some point. I want to play Gears 5 while it's on game pass, and Borderlands 3 has just come out too. Also, I'm writing an article that I hoped to post here. I did one a while ago about graphic engines that seemed to go down well. This article is about the humble blue LED. Sounds boring eh? But you'd be surprised how much modern tech would not be around if this little thing was not perfected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mania is a genuinely excellent platformer, don’t let the fact it’s Sonic put you off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craymen Edge Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 I bought a game called "Kind Words (lo fi chill beats to write to)" It's not so much a game really. You sit in a room listening to chilled out music and write supportive messages to real strangers in response to confessional notes they've written about what's worrying them. Or you write your own, and can get responses from people yourself. I responded to a couple, and then wrote my own. A little later a cute deer in a mail hat delivered me a handful of nice replies from anonymous strangers. I thanked them with stickers. It was a really nice experience. I'm starting my Sunday feeling relaxed and positive about the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 @Cyberpunk I remember hearing that blue LED took years to develop, for whatever reason it was really difficult for them to do, but because of that now it's spammed everywhere @Craymen Edge I saw some of that. Nice idea, feels like it should have come out on the early days of a console to just get the positivity, but I'm not sure it's my sort of thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Is it on Steam? Edit: yes it is. You can never be too sure nowadays. Looks very Resident Evil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 there's probably a next-gen features thread this could go in, but something that's been bouncing around my head that I'm not sure is entirely possible, is multiple suspension states on the next gen consoles The consoles aren't going to be powerful enough to run 2 games at once, unless it's something basic and something middling, even then is there the bandwidth on the SSD etc, but it's something that plays on my mind with the Switch especially I picked it up this morning to play Untitled Goose Game but Astral Chain was suspended, so I had to play that to a new checkpoint before I could load Goose without losing progress. PC doesn't have suspension like that, it has quick saves which mitigate that a bit, and you can have all sorts of stuff running in the background if you want. Phones do a good job of letting you have multiple things suspended. On Switch, or whatever handheld we get next, I'd love to be able to have multiple things I can just pick up and play as and when Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Since it is October I need to pick a scary game to play through. I’m down to either Resident Evil 2 (2019) or Dark Souls 2: PS4 edition. Both are very scary for different reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please ban @regemond I mean, unless you have a specific reason I'd like to request you get banned instead.

one-armed dwarf Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 BTW, random diversion but I found GTM on a random AWS instance the other day. No idea if login works (probably not) But all the hallway girl stuff is preserved still it seems like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Blizzard has banned a Hearthstone player for supporting Hong Kong. It's good to know that Blizzard are in the 'pro harvesting of prisoner's organs' camp. I'm wondering how many other companies we'll see this happen with.

one-armed dwarf Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Reddit is now trying to make Mei from Overwatch into a Hong Kong protest figure, to see if OW gets banned in China like South Park and Whinnie the Pooh. That's pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandsomeDead Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 I get China is a big market but is it really worth taking this kind of stance on the global stage? It really doesn't look good to everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
