Since the steam deck 2 will make use of the amazing gains, I wonder if people will really start considering the Deck as an alternative to Switch 2. There’s already a TON of overlap in the indy game scene. SO many of those release on both Steam and Switch.

Obviously the hardcore Nintendo IP fans will stick with Switch 2, but outside of that … ???

The Deck has really been a game changer!

Larian truly is one of the modern greats, so I’m happy for them to take however long they need for a break :) Come back refreshed and make DOS3, and take as long as they need! Sooooo love their games.

That’s not really true. When it first came out, before the ads, before the algorithm, when they embraced 3rd party apps with an open api, it was really great. It was full of techy personalities and interesting folks. Hashtags were fun to follow, live events were amazing in real time, so much more. That was before it got inundated with politics and celebrities though. I think that honeymoon phase only lasted a tiny while, then it all went downhill into the outrage machine pretty quickly. But for a quick minute there, it was glorious.

It’ll be hilarious in several years time when they’ve completely abandoned the entire VR multiverse concept, when they have to explain to people what their company name means.

“Well you see, our king lordship decided that we must set fire to several hundred billion dollars, there was nothing else we could do with it, so we did.”

is there a titlegore magazine here? Because this belongs there.

This is exactly what I was going to say. The MT3 design is the only thing I care about from that site that’s long passed it prime. I have a Susuwatari as well as a Godspeed set and they are by far my all time favs. I haven’t even looked to buy a new set of caps in years now they are so amazing.

Please Corsair, DON’T SCREW WITH MT3 YOU BASTARDS.

I would be amazed if it sells for anywhere near 40. I bet it launches at closer to 60.

Getting close to that 2021 release at $40k purchase price?

Hmmmmm I wonder where all that heavy debt came from? Chin scratch I wonder why all the companies don’t want to advertise here anymore? NOBODY KNOWS!!!

Yes agreed. I wonder where the original team behind H2, H3 are nowadays? It’d be cool if there was a site that tracked where talented devs are

does Doom count? Because my friends and I still play the game to this day, all the various community mods and maps.

I loved this at first but then the complexity of the various mechanics seemed to take a sharp rocket ship upwards through the roof. I got kind of lost and then tried to read the wiki guide and it was like a book, so that was that. I really wanted to like it though! Maybe I should give it another go.

Do you know what happened to it? Just curious.

So sad to see such a beloved franchise swirling the drain. All for the almighty dollar.

With the way endgame aspects work, having more than 3 stash tabs is a requirement. Not sure how they didn’t see this in testing.

Between this and Dredge, it has been a wonderful year for the Deck.

Funny you say that, it actually started AS a mobile game. Then they changed directions, but you’re right you can still feel some of it still in there.

I think LW is better out of the box. It has both UBO and Containers built in. Which is just awesome. I still use FF as my daily just because I have customized it beyond belief, but if I were to start over again I think I’d start with LW.

Also the other instance I was using … vlemmy.net … has been down for like a week now. I wonder if it’s completely done for?

I’m not sure I understand wireless trackball. The only reason I wanted a wireless mouse was because I didn’t like the drag and the pull from the cable. That doesn’t exist with a trackball. I much prefer wired for a keyboard because similarly it doesn’t move so doesn’t require charging or batteries.

Maybe I’m naive, but I can’t imagine there’s a huge market for wireless trackballs?
