I’m all for competition and against forced DRM. But the PC gaming service ʀᴇᴅᴀᴄᴛᴇᴅ that you’re referring to offers genuinely good services on top of just accessing games - social platform, (voice) chat, remote play (together), streaming video to friends, communities, easy access to mods, linux support, makes multiplayer easy, etc…

Don’t be capping, mf still has the skibidi rizz. fr fr

I never noticed the daughter in the background.

Phenomenal game - dare I say the best two-player co-op game I’ve ever played.

I think the official translations have pretty much only targeted PC/PS4/XBox. Pretty sure there are also no fan ports on the Vita.

For the best experience, playing on PC via Steam is the ideal setup - that way you can also install fan patches by Comittee of Zero, because the official translations have some continuity issues (along with untranslated backgrounds, typos etc.)

Anonymous;Code has been sitting in my library for too long, I really want to get started on it already! Sci;Adv is my favourite VN series.

Anyway, I started this cutesy-looking visual novel “Island” last week. I’m sure nothing bad or unexpected will happen in this story.

I haven’t gotten started on it yet, but “You and Me and Her” seems to be a common recommendation for fans of DDLC.

Handholding something something Outer Wilds recommendation.

It’s gotta be Penumbra: The Black Plague and Amnesia: The Dark Descent back when I played them 12 years ago. Not many games have created the same amount of tension for me while playing.

Both services use the ActivityPub protocol, so to put it very simply the data format used by both services is the same, they just render it differently on your screen. Then they are pushing/pulling the data for posts and comments from other instances as users request it, e.g. by viewing this lemmy instance through Mastodon.

I’m done fiddling with software and want stuff that works without much hassle. Unraid is super easy, I am in the process of building a home server with it, similar setup to OP.

I plan on moving my media files to the server through my LAN via FreeFileSync.

Fan projects or mods should be never pre-announced, just released once they’re ready. Once it’s out there the big companies can’t stop it.

OP is already using one based on the post text.

Yeah. 99% of users click nag screens off right away. I do too, unless I use that application/service extensively.

Hello, fellow IT person. One day we will need the VGA cables we have saved.

Big companies avoid risk too much, they want to make revenue, not games. I haven’t been interested in any AAA game in some 10 years. They’re all just the same open-world, microtransaction-DLC, soon-to-be advertisement platform with uninspired gameplay features.

Independent developers on the other hand are innovating and making cool and fun games.

Most reviews seem to be related to the “personal backup” service, but still good to consider. I’ve only read positive things about their B2 storage on self-host communities.

From where do you think they get money to pay salaries other expenses?

Mostly google, actually.

I am interested in the game series, but it looks like there are many points to start from. Myst 2021, realMyst Masterpiece Edition, Myst Masterpiece Edition, Riven, Riven 2024.

Seems like the starting point is a relatively controversial topic amongst fans. I thought of starting with Myst 2021, then playing the original Riven.

Eagerly waiting for the prequel “Cyberpunk 2069”.

They found the way you wrote “Yt-dlp and a cron job” sexually appealing, and went to havd some fun rub… uh, installing.
