I don’t agree with people downvoting you just cause its unity lmfao, but yeah im just sticking with godot, theyre advancing pretty fast and you can immediately tell the features are implemented with game dev in mind… where unity feels more like a cheaper version of unreal’s “everything” engine.
No Rest for the Wicked is an upcoming ARPG from the devs behind the Ori games. From what I understand, it focuses on a slower more methodical play style than other ARPGs like Diablo....
Are there really that many games running at 60? I swear i play most of mine at 30 on my deck and they look perfectly fine, smaller screen helps with a lot of that imo
I keep hearing that the OLED version is much better not only screenwise, but also the overall experience. Is it wort paying double the price (second handed)?
Honestly I think it’s probably too soon for the kind of significant performance increase Valve is wanting for the Steam Deck 2. Not to mention that the OLED deck just came out. That said, even if these chips don’t make it to a Deck 2 I’m sure we’ll see them in competing devices....
Idk man, their laptops are pretty over engineered imo. Bad cooling just so they can get rid of vents, touchbar that holds important system commands that just crashes…
But mostly they get better efficiency because there’s no hardware variation to account for. And even then, their mx processors were causing a shit ton of compatibility issues with some of the most popular mac software. I would assume a lot of those are ironed out by now though
I had a similar idea, except instead of showing something and taking it away, as the character moves, things would turn just slightly to face them. Imagine you’re walking down a dark road surrounded by dead trees, and just as the trees pass your peripheral vision, they turn like 10 degrees your direction.
I bet these kind of mechanics would make for a pants-wettingly terrifying horror game if done in vr too!
Small and self published devs are the way forward, capitalist corps can and will eventually optimize the fun out of every game they touch in search of profit margins.
No ea game is worth the hassle because if it isn’t made into some form of pay to win lootbox shitfest, EA is likely to can the game and the developer all together. N E V E R trust ea with singleplayer.
Past tense, NOW they have made themselves notorious for canning successful projects that don’t make enough. They just recently did it to one of the og creators of halo
It’s easy to roll one’s eyes as the self-serving dramatics of MAGA voters using false claims of victimhood as cover for their ugly views.

Pay attention to the personalities of republican voters, you’ll notice that a majority of them are very clearly subpar human beings who are looking for someone to look down on to feel powerful and important.
For clarity, when i say subpar i mean theyre the “peaked in high school” type who have never attempted or just flat out failed at any upwards mobility and are now living a shittier life than they expected. Literally incapable of looking inwards
JK Rowling has challenged Scotland’s new hate crime law in a series of social media posts - inviting police to arrest her if they believe she has committed an offence....
I swear every single person arguing against this bill hasn’t read it.
The gist of it is consolidating existing hate crime laws, adding sexual orientation and gender to the protected classes, repealing the law of blasphemy, and then the main one people are on about, outlawing “inciting hate” and spending several entire pages defining exactly what that means and how its still covered by freedom of expression.
As you said, you can use the slurs. You can be a shit person.
What this seems to be addressing is the fact that ANYBODY can have a platform nowadays and some of those people use their platform to harm other people, whether indirectly or not.
That exactly what I personally think is problematic, because I would fundamentally disagree that this is “directly”
I find Rowling opinion on trans people rather disgusting and genuinely damaging. But the law seems to me rather excessive. But maybe I’m missing something.
I think it makes a lot more sense if you look at this bill while thinking about communities and interactions in modern times - ANYBODY can have a twitter, youtube, tiktok, etc account and immediately have access to a platform where they can potentially speak to thousands of people, and some of them are pretty impressionable (thinking andrew tate) - so as a community leader you should have some awareness that people are going to act on your ideas because they look up to you. I think this bill is trying to limit cases like that, and also cases of bullying where people have been harassed to the point of suicide simply for their identity
Yeah there’s a lot of ambiguity in the law, they try to define it but they use “what a reasonable person would believe” a bunch, which leaves a LOT of room for interpretation. If a bigot is in power, none of it is unreasonable to him.
I’m not sure how i would fix it though, theyre trying to address a serious flaw in the modern world, Because intentional or not some of these personalities inspire actions that get people hurt or killed… its a bit of a double edged sword
Helldivers actually has the least intrusive monetization model i’ve ever seen, please stfu if you haven’t actually played the game. You people are damaging the industry.
Turn on gyro, gyro to mouse, enable on right stick touch. You’ll have to play with the sensitivity settings and practice some, but aim macro with stick and use the gyro to fine tune
