Great stuff. Looks so good

Embracer Group is definitely widely known for their generous treatment of staff.

Shit take. Not everyone can be Eric Barone or Daisuke Amaya.

What does matter though is that if we as Linux gamers want them to care, they need to see that Linux users are generating revenue. They’re greedy corpos and revenue is all they give a shit about.

I appreciate you mentioning this, I agree. If linux made a blip on a chart, executives would prioritize figuring out a solution.

I’m not sure what your point is? Perhaps I incorrectly assumed this was obvious but yes - if players do not financially support a game, even “free to play” games, those games disappear. There is not a single company on the planet that is going to continue investing in a negative revenue project for funsies. The teams working on the game are relocated to other projects or laid off, and the game shuts down.

If you believe I’m in the wrong for supporting a game that, until this point, was friendly to linux - then so be it.

Counterpoint - Devs need to eat. Especially devs that are thoughtful enough to enable their anti-cheat to work on Linux. So yeah, they had my attention, my support, and my money. In return I got to play a fun game and rock some cool skins and accessories - it certainly seemed like a win-win. Now they’ve retroactively backed out of their support, and I’d like to back out mine as well.

Uh, I’m losing access to everything I bought with apex coins though…

No change 😞

This is the full list of communities available to select after I reset data and logged back in. (How the hell does pop_os end up on there?? Heh)

Yeah, I can open the post in the WebUI/Browser and share that way. That’s been my approach for the moment - but just community “Linux” (local) doesn’t seem to appear on Voyager’s list the same way. I think it’s an issue with this app specifically, not lemmy or the instances.

Thanks for taking a look!

I’d really like Valve to take an official policy on post-release changes that break games, but for what it’s worth they have not given me any hassle with refunds in these scenarios.

Unstoppable force meeting an immovable object, visualized.

NATO will continue expanding as more and more border countries don’t want to deal with limp dick Putin. Russia will be broken up to small territories and anything that remains of the federation will be scrapped and sold for salvage to finance rebuilding what has been lost.

Ta-ta!

🥱

How? Blood, sweat and tears mostly.

Usually it’s not recommended to start with your “dream game”. Pick an engine (I like Godot), grab some Kenney art assets, and get to work on a pong or snake clone. This can be using written tutorials, videos, or hard mode, read the docs and piece it together.

Trying to learn a language, learn an engine, learn the art pipeline, learn game dev concepts AND dream up a new game concept with custom assets simultaneously is trying to boil the ocean. Start small: add a start menu, add a scene. Make jpg appear and move using player input, add an obstacle, add a death scene/restart. Iterate from there.

Damn they made four of those turds? Series could have ended at #2, was the real high point.

Yikes, the NW-E394 is the only one here I’d consider giving to a child, and it only has 8gb of memory for $75!? Absurd.

Sansa Clip used to be my go-to for this type of use, but it doesn’t look like they make them anymore either… We’re officially living in a time it’s easier to find a CD player than a dedicated MP3. What the hell.

What are you hoping to filter with it? I have a general purpose Honeywell Insight, it works well enough for my allergies and pet dander in my apartment. I think I paid something like $200 for the unit 3 years ago, but filters are $85 a year for it - pricey but they’re widely available.
