I switch over to desktop to install new games, but that isn’t strictly necessary - you could run Heroic in game mode and install from there.

Once a game is installed through Heroic it will automatically add a shortcut (I.e. Non-Steam game) to Steam. For the shortcut to be visible, however, the Steam client needs to be restarted. This is why I switch to desktop for all my installing needs then reboot in to game mode. When playing, I never need to leave game mode.

The easy way is with the Heroic Game Launcher. Log in to your GOG account and direct install.

If it crosses your mind once it’s all hooked up :⁠-⁠)

That was a wild ride. I am amazed, and have so many questions.

Thanks for the reply! I have a couple USB 3.0 2-drive docks that just sit out in the open - consolidating in to a single, enclosed unit with a fan would be nice (since mine or open, you really hear the HD spin up/click when accessing it).

What do you use to adjust your drives’ spin down? hdparm? hd-idle? I have one drive that is constantly spinning/accessed so the thermal concerns with the unit do weigh on me.

Reviews on that page are kind of dodgy, but they are for all 3 products listed which makes it difficult to tell which review is for what.

Have you had any of the listed issues? Heat, unrecognized success, etc?

Not entirely. Sony has been releasing games to PC.

I’m not patent savvy - of they are only granted this year (as a point of origin for the patents’ eventually expiry), wouldn’t the years of previous Pokemon games invalidate these patents due to prior art?

Sure, I hadn’t implied that the game was patented, but the mechanics were present in a game that is over 30 years old.

How do Japanese patents differ from USA/CAN? My general understanding of patents is that they expire after 20 years - Pokemon is older than that. Do Japanese patents have a longer duration? Did Nintendo patent a game later than the originals?

How old are they?

I loved Tribes. The verticality, the freedom of movement, the timing of slow moving projectiles. It’s one of the few multiplayer FPS that I sunk time in to and got quite competent at.

The only other game to scratch the freedom of movement itch in the same way was AVP2, playing as the Alien (wall walking, pouncing across the map, etc) though obviously it didn’t have a lot of the same features.

Tribes is so far behind me that I don’t remember any of the people, servers, etc that I played on, but I do remember my nick: Guy In The Sky.

As others mentioned… Mods. I frequently played Renegades, but I believe HaVoC was my favourite.

Oh, and PlanetTribes/PlanetStarsiege? F.

Oh my goodness. Thank you, checking this out.

I think “Renegades”?

… It’s the headline on PC Gamer.

Also what does “stealing from Reddit”, an aggregator of Link’s, even mean?

Goodness I actually have a pixel 3a kicking around.

Now if only I could find a use for my galaxy s8 besides glorified webcam.

Biodegradable silicone would be kinda cool.

That said, the 2 months wait and uncertainty of products seems to be a thing of the past (based on the things I purchase, not like I’m ordering skinny jeans), as most stuff arrives in 2 weeks and hasn’t made it to the trash.

Though Canada Post being on strike is likely to bugger that up.

[Edit] I stand corrected - AliExpress packages just came through, ordered 10 days ago.
