Reminder to sign Ross Scott’s StopKillingGames EU Citizens Intitiative (which carries legal weight if it reaches 1 million) if you’re an EU Citizen! Ubisoft killing The Crew is what kicked the whole thing off.
- Comment on Would you recommend any of the Star Trek games? 11 months ago:
It’s shorthand for The Original Series, which a lot of trekkies use when talking about the first show with Kirk and Spock.

Never played that one, but I gotta admit it looks pretty fun on youtube

The Voyager Elite Force games are pretty excellent if you enjoy FPS games, and the TOS point and click games, 25th anniversary and its sequel are extremely well made too.
- Comment on What video game about the Vietnam war is your favorite? 1 year ago:
The old mid 2000’s game ‘Vietcong’ is still, IMHO, the most realistic depiction of jungle combat conditions in the Vietnam war. It can oftentimes be a janky, seemingly overly hard game nowadays, but there’s still nothing else quite like it all these years later.
The jungle is dense for that period, the AI is surprisingly tactically aware (at least from memory. They would ambush you, flank the player, and I think even run away if they were losing an engagement), there’s deadly, well camouflaged traps everywhere, making slowly walking the safest way to move around, the fights are short and deadly, and most impressive of all, it licensed a lot of famous 60’s songs from that era.
It can be a difficult game to get running on modern windows, but there might be some community patches for that. It would probably run better under Linux with wine.
If you’re looking for a hardcore singleplayer experience to explore that conflict from a historical context, I’d recommend giving it a shot.

- Comment on Sullair - Proof that if you treat workers well and remove middle management, productivity increases exponentially | 60 Minutes 1 year ago:
Some comments on that video mention their dad’s who still worked there and that they still had that atmosphere until recently (even after Sullair was bought by Sundstrand Corporation in1984). They were recently purchased by Hitachi in 2017, and I assume that’s when those perks started getting removed.
