They’re ripping off Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon!!!

Maybe look past triple A games next time you make such an assessment

I’ve been playing bl3 in multiplayer just fine. Me in Linux and my friend on windows. I just didn’t have fun. And iirc when my friend group of 4 played bl2 one of us had Linux. At least I’m fairly sure he already had at that time

Someone that wasn’t around the gaming scene for the past 20 years?

Interestingly enough valve has tried your method of catching cheaters your way by pattern matching with a neutral network in csgo. Sadly they never got to the confidence level where they made it automatically ban people because they didn’t want to catch really good players in the crossfire. Instead they send them to overwatch, a system where sufficiently good players could judge the case and determine if the person is cheating.

But also there’s many different types of cheats and that will only gets you so far. Information plays a big role in cs so wall hacks can go undetected if the player masks then which they do since they know they’re probably watched. There’s also subtle aim bot for that reason that doesn’t snap your aim to your enemy precisely but corrects your manual aim by just correcting it a tiny bit.

As the other user described, it is an arms race and so far the cheaters keep finding ways to trick the algorithm after each ban wave. I still admire valve for not going kernel level with their anti cheat and trying the complicated and interesting route instead. However i think that is because valve tried kernel level when it was still resisted by gamers so they got big backlash at the time and went back to regular anti cheat.

I think what worked best for me was trust factor, which rates the trustworthiness of your steam account and since i have a legit account I’ve not played against cheaters since they implemented it and until i stopped playing. It sucks for new players with new steam accounts tho as they get matched with a lot of cheaters.

And about putting a buzzword on your game that makes people think they’re safe from cheaters

That last paragraph is exactly what i feel. In Windows it started to feel more and more like I’m fighting against Microsoft and have to be on edge all the time whereas if in Linux something doesn’t work it’s not because of ill intentions of the people behind the OS.

Just an fyi but blob already stands for binary large object

Well yeah maybe but there’s still a lot of people living there and I have the feeling that the Hamas is not just gonna let the Jewish population live a peaceful life there. You don’t counter a genocide with genocide

Sorry mate i only tried making tacos once but they were fairly mediocre. Nothing special to share really. They were vegan tho so that’s nice.

If you could give me a vegan taco recipe or a way to make Israel disappear without displacing/killing their Jewish population that would be nice. But honestly I’d be fine with the taco recipe

Well yeah but how would .il disappear without Israel disappearing?

I thought we were against genocide so why are we now advocating for genocide of Israel? Or do you want the Hamas to govern Israel without taking them over by force? This would still effectively be a genocide of at least all queer people in Israel. Sorry i agree that Netanjahu is a fuckhead and wrong but two wrongs don’t make a right, the same way the wrong of kidnapping a fuckton of people didn’t make genociding Palestinians right.

A videogame making views on YouTube is only incentive for first playthroughs as views on YouTube are usually for people’s reactions to stuff. Speedrunning really usually is a passion project.

That’s super interesting to me. I’m pretty much the opposite. I tried civ 6 on the deck but it failed to trigger me going into hyperfocus like it does on desktop

Steam OS, which they use for the Steam Deck is based on Arch btw, which is why

The worst part about it is that they usually pretend to be a queer person demanding queer representation in games in the most rude way possible and then people take this shit serious and take it out on actual queer people.
