I have to give it to the Nintendo DS. Absolutely incredible library, much of it too unique to play anywhere else.

Azumanga Daioh is forever the GOAT.

Bravely Default is an incredible successor to FF5. I like to joke that someone at Square realized during development that this game is actually good and thus they couldn't put the FF name on it.

The amount of storage and bandwidth Youtube needs is something no competitor could ever hope to match.

Serious question for you, why let an AI do all the posting for you? Can't write your own replies?

The Lynx version came first.

Slay the Spire is meant to be a difficult strategy game, balance matters in order to maintain that difficulty. To me it actually does scratch a similar kind of itch as some competitive games. I see the Spire as my opponent, and I want it to put up a strong fight.

At launch, infinites were so easy to obtain that the dominant strategy was to force them on nearly every run. Not only was it too easy, it was repetitively dull. The ease with which you could just keep doing the same thing over and over and get away with it sucked all strategy out of the strategy game.

Even after the nerfs, StS2 is still considered to be much easier than its predecessor, even on max difficulty. Part of the goal of Early Access is to work on refining the game's balance until it's as polished as the original, so of course those infinites had to be the first priority to address.

All of their replies are extremely obvious AI-speak. Even just the act of responding to a tongue-in-cheek three word post with multiple paragraphs is enough of a dead giveaway.

Can also recommend Ara Fell and Rise of the Third Power for a retro jrpg itch.

Seconding these, both excellent. For another indie FF-like I'll add Crystal Project.

FightCade.

I dunno if I'd still enjoy it if I went back to replay it today, but I have a childhood soft spot for Final Fantasy II. I loved the absurdity of being able to dual-wield shields and attack myself to level evasion, what a beautifully stupid game.

Remember that the far right has been desperately trying to label any LGBTQ-related content as 'porn'. Educational resources? 'Porn'. Biographies about gay people? 'Porn'. Drag queens? 'Porn'. A book about a boy with two mommies? 'Porn'. Anything that acknowledges the existence of trans people? 'Porn'.

The purpose of this bill isn't to ban porn, it's to ban 'porn'. Anything they don't like will be deemed 'porn', and then this gives them the legal justification to ban whatever they want.

I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding.

This is huge. I was beginning to lose hope we'd ever see a big budget high-profile non-indie get a Linux port ever again.

Edit: Maybe not that huge...

Now that there is a Steam Deck Native build, is Baldur’s Gate 3 supported on Linux?

Larian does not provide support for the Linux platform. The Steam Deck Native build is only supported on Steam Deck.

No d-pad is an instant dealbreaker.

Edit: Y'know what I'll properly expand on this. The Steam Controller failed because it tried to replace vital functionality people expect from a controller. The Steam Deck learned from this mistake and just supplemented that functionality.

TBH, the way I see it, the Steam Controller was designed for games I don't want to play on controller, while being bad for games I do want to play on controller.

The problem with a hat like this is that if I saw this person from a distance, I wouldn't look closely enough to read it.

All the defense has to do is play the clip of him openly telling advertisers not to advertise and he'll get laughed out of court.

This is cartoonishly obvious bait.

There's a lot of terrible anime, but there's also a lot of fantastic anime. There's a lot of anime.

Outside, hopefully.

Snark aside, 4chan was once hugely influential to internet culture and humor, but that era was long, long, long ago. When 4chan became the breeding ground for the alt-right, that thoroughly infected the site so badly that everyone else was driven off. There is nothing of value left on that site, and its death is a net positive for the world.

Of course other imageboards still exist, but I don't think any of them will ever be as big as 4chan was. I hope that none of them become that big.
