FYI, for the same price you could grab it in a bundle right now and get several other games with it.

steamdb only tracks steam directly though, correct? Great site, just doesn’t track all prices if that’s what you’re going for.

Depends on the game and the publisher. There are frequent sales as well as sales from 3rd party resellers. Check out IsThereAnyDeal.com which tracks all the prices and you can see how often a game has gone on sale at steam or any legit reseller.

Time to show them the door …

Yeah… I think I’m less upset they changed the type of game… and more that it’s just creatively bankrupt cash-grab nonsense.

😠

Both Tuta and Proton are decent selections.

Some of the rumblings from proton admin are a little concerning… too early to see if they’re going to have issues or not. Their service is robust and easy to use.

Tuta seems to be a fairly good choice from a privacy standpoint. They aren’t nearly as robust of a product package and using it feels a little old skool and clunky… but they’re actively working on it… so hopefully it will change.

The biggest thing with proton is that they offer a suite of products. They look to compete directly with the goog on their offerings… so they have email, calendar, password manager, file drive, wallet, whatever else… and they’re working to integrate them. So if you use a plethora of g-products… it’s more of a smooth transition because there are more analogs to use. If you have already diversified away from a monolithic product base, then this isn’t an issue.

They need their vent cores frog blasted. 💥🐸💥

Yeah… it’s frustrating to see these kinds of things. Like… yes… stop doing the bad thing… but if you’re going to start a whole petition… maybe offer some feasible alternatives and solutions.

Kids these days were never likely to be eaten by a grue… and it shows. ;)

But but… the new era of “innovation”… by bringing back watered down versions of old stuff… including loot boxes, which ostensibly was half the reason for the Overwatch Too release. We’ll be lucky if they don’t find some way to add AI dlc or something at this point.

Tried a bunch of the ios apps and settled into Voyager. Good UI / UX and functionality, active developer, and open source. No real complaints so far.

I hope we get pictures of bumblebees on nickels soon… five bees a for a quarter I’d say.

Nah. Like whatever you like. I’ve just helped a lot of friends set up shaders and had to show them that setting because they didn’t know it was there. If you like it then rock on with your block on. :)

In case you didn’t know already… you can usually turn off the “clouds” layer and volumetric shader clouds will still work so you don’t get disparate cloud styles on your game.

Yay I can finally lose access to family sharing with my literal sibling who lives in a different house… such an upgrade. /s

Remember where you are so you can tell your kids what you were doing before the “xtreme flavor blasted mousepocalypse”.
