  I would really enjoy if games that had paid loot boxes (ie, gambling) were marked M for Mature. Would cut that shit out fast.

  Yeah, this seems absurdly too high. My guess is he was hosting it on AWS or one of the other premium cloud providers. Places like Digital Ocean are a fraction of AWS’ cost.

  I remember doing a pricing analysis at work, and every three months of AWS time would buy us a completely new server rack. Just three months! AWS was out at that point, leaving colocating, keeping it in-house, or services like Digital Ocean as the remaining reasonable options.

  AKA: A job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Four FINAL FANTASY games have arrived on GOG in the Preservation Program⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t played 4, 7, or 9. Any opinions on which one is most worth playing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes I know Christmas was a month ago but SantaCorps 4 perfectly captures Sega Dreamcast era Sonic so play it anyway⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think they did 3D sonic better than Sega did!

  Call their customer support. I realize they don’t publish a number, but you can often go in a round about way through any phone number they have. You are going to lose hours of your life doing this though.

  The real suggestion: Stop giving Ubisoft money, cut your losses, and use a storefont that doesn’t actively hate you, like Steam and GOG.

  While neat, I highly doubt you can get any notable amount of torque through this.

  Don’t cheat in multiplayer games.

  What is JPEG-XL and why wouldn’t one continue to use PNG?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Overwatch 2 with Season 20 has some very annoying crash-bugs on Linux / SteamOS⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn, 20 seasons just since Aug 2023.

  Honestly, I had forgotten Overwatch 2 was a game that existed. Whole thing was a shitshow on launch and have yet to feel the desire to play it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RAM is ruining everything⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OpenAI put in an order for 40% of RAM supply at two of the three companies that make RAM.

  This is most certainly a supply/demand issue.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve confirm the Steam Machine will be priced like a PC with similar specs, rather than a console⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is only really appealing to console games as PC gamers have nothing to gain from buying one

  I have a PC gamer friend who has an 8-year-old PC. He has said he is getting a Steam Machine.

  What this offers PC gamers is a ready-made box. Some PC gamers don’t want to build a PC, they want to just buy it. And this offers a very standard package to get.
