It feels like they’ve been getting devs to go through these games (including the first) to get used to how a half life game should be so they can hit the ground running when making the next one.

That’s grim
I remember seeing the original trailers for that and thought it looked really cool. Never got a chance to play they. Never been into this form of battle royale so I’ve never played Fortnite longer than a single match at a time for maybe 4 go’s max across the years. It’s never clicked.
I care about both. I would prefer more games like astro though. I’ve been playing through the spyro remake lately purely because I want more of that kind of fun that we seemed to have lost in the transition between the ps2 and ps3. I miss when games were mostly just about fun, we need that back in spades.
Yeah i think that’s why i don’t go back to Minecraft either. Since when i payed regularly i remember new updates breaking world gen so you got these ugly walls when exploring new areas. I’m certain that doesn’t happen any more but it also makes me not want to explore because when new places are added I’ll have to explore even further if i explore a lot initially. So now I just don’t bother.
Yeah, stardew will be remembered as a great game irregardless of its updates. Even if it was left at the release update people would still think of it the same way in my opinion. Look at how many people before stardew still went back and played early harvest moons to play them yearly.
In fact for me. I’ve not played it in a long time I think purely because I’d rather start a new game with all of the new content. But new content keeps coming out so I wait.
I’m equating the fact that I could more consistently distance myself from smokers. I can’t do that with vapers. When getting into a gig it was relatively rare to end up next to a snooker that just didn’t care anyway. Nowadays though you can’t get away from vapers who vape way more often than they would’ve done with smoking.
It’s worse because smoking had started to be relegated to designated areas. Non smokers could much more easily avoid smokers. But vaping is so easy to do that you can no longer avoid them. You go to a gathering of any kind and you’re guaranteed to have at least one arsehole not respecting other peoples decisions to not smoke/vape
I don’t want any sort of chemical in my lungs, I should be able to choose what to inhale not the selfish arsehole stood in front of me. I or others should not be affected by other people’s bad decisions.
vaping was much worse because people blatantly use them indoors and wherever else they shouldn’t. And due to them not needing to light up they just constantly puff on them between every three breaths. It’s fucking awful being in a queue or walking behind someone vaping.
Hobbies, do things you like to do. If you don’t have any yet then have some fun figuring out new things to see what clicks for you

We’ve had a lot of 2d ones recently though. I’d love to see a return of the 3d format for at least one game.
That is either the bane or something really close. It’s really damn good too.
I got a second hand surface go 2 recently and it’s the perfect companion device. I wish marvel unlimited and the like had apps on windows but that doesn’t do me from using a different comic app and building up my own library anyway, probably for the better long term.
I just found out about mouse without borders yesterday and now my surface go 2 is like a portable monitor for my dev laptop when it’s not docked in my study. But because it’s still technically it’s own thing and not just an extended desktop, I can have documentation on it and scroll with the touchscreen when needed without messing up the mouse on the laptop screen, but if i need to properly interact with the tablet I can just use the mouse and keyboard on my laptop too.
It’ll be a game I’ll always remember fondly. I still think of that ending to this day, one of the best.
I’ve only played 2 and I feel the same way about it. I wish more games did this approach of using an open world as a setting for a linear game to perform.
You get the best of both worlds with this approach. The feeling of the world being more real and lived in, whilst having the tightness of the storytelling of a linear game.
I’ve always defended how mafia 2 did it and never understood why people wanted it to be more open world. The story had me gripped too much to even think about that stuff.
I always find it weird in some open world games where something in the story is described as being a race against time or so important it needs to get done now, but as the player you can just forget that for a bit and go do something else before continuing. Even just the ability to do that takes me out of it.
I’ve read the Hobbit and the fellowship a few years ago. I absolutely adored the Hobbit, genuinely think that is an awesomely written book. Fellowship however, is not a fun read, despite the content in the book actually being good. But the act of reading it is not.
I’m pretty sure docker recommends that it runs under WSL when on windows.
