i think psp did it first for handhelds, i know the suspend feature was a talking point when it launched. consoles didn’t get it until xbone iirc. it’s kinda wild how long it’s taken to be a regular feature!

i know this doesn’t answer your question at all, i just thought it was interesting hahah

the deck does this SO cleanly that now i get surprised when suspending my laptop breaks games.

like that’s the expected behavior, valve has me so spoiled.

the only decision that matters in the entire franchise is whether or not you hug da Vinci in the second game. that’s where player-choice peaked for assassin’s creed and i will not compromise on this.

make it so you shoot them out with a gun

EVERYBODY had the burger mii back in the day. there was also a classic gray alien and a comical looking michael jackson that practically everyone with an internet connection had downloaded from the mii channel.

i always just hang shit somewhere it won’t impede airflow and let it be. the ONE time i bought a prebuilt system was the only time i’ve had a computer with the cables remotely “managed”.

unfortunately one of the zip ties they used impeded the fan on the cpu cooler, but only when the case was closed. it made this buzzing noise that i couldn’t track down for months, and then the motherboard failed. and then the replacement motherboard failed.

i went back to building my own computers again after that.

it plays really well with proton, i have 168 hours all on linux. it’s THE GAME that fully convinced me visuals don’t matter at all if the gameplay is tight.

gunfire reborn released each of it’s dlc packs ~1 year apart and i’ve bought all three. going on 4 years since initial release and the game still feels fresh as hell.

i played through the whole of below zero on a deck and it ran swimmingly! i think it was before final release too, so probably not even fully optimized at that point.

so i do torrent stuff when i want to keep it, but the vast majoriy of my media i just stream from whatever shady site i happen to find it on first. it’s too quick and easy.

protip if you ever have trouble finding anything, just use yandex. russia doesn’t give a SHIT about copyright violations or DMCA complaints.

“young bond for gamers” already sounds so hilariously out of touch.

if he’s not cranking 90s and hitting the griddy then he’ll NEVER be the young bond for THIS gamer.

it’s giving “molyneux” in the worst way

the entire base building system in 4 feels like a mod rather than part of the actual game.

😬

“shooting my gun into the air actually poses a statistically insignificant risk to the public at large, so no sane person would REALLY be worried about falling bullets.”

Who are you to police other people’s concern anyway? I’d bet not a parent!

There were 327 school shootings in the 2021-22 school year in the US. That’s more shootings than there are days in a school year. If we had an event wherein a known serial killer publicly tried to murder someone literally every day, reckon folks would be a might bit more concerned about it?

What I’m saying is this is a silly comparison for you to make.

i’m a photoshop simp who straight up couldn’t use GIMP because of the clunky UI, but after switching to linux i’m an avid photogimp advocate.

i dunno, i usually don’t mesh with mobas at all but i played the shit out of smite. that was years ago so egg on my face if they’ve made it terrible since, but i remember it being real fun.

320gb hdd I had laying around that would otherwise just collect dust due to it’s miniscule size.

i put a 512gb drive in a thinkpad less than a decade ago and thought at the time “boy this might be overkill”

and now i can get 2tb on a fucking microsd for a cheaper data/cost ratio than i did back then, wild.

It’s as complicated as you make it to be, and that’s gonna vary WILDLY per person lmao
