I accidentally started a fight under a post last night and had to double check if you were the OP haha. Engagement is engagement I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m in the same boat; Nova was the first non-stock launcher I ever used. RIP to the memories

Steam just works better. Their cloud save is reliable, and library organizing is actually a thing. I can see someone using the free Epic game as a sort of demo. Plus, if they really liked they game they may want to support the developer

There are a couple of ways to pronounce the letter ‘H’ that could sound like ‘age’; one that keeps a soft ‘hah’ sound before ‘aitch’ and one that drops the soft ‘hah’. Both can end up sounding similar to a cross between eight/age depending on how clearly you enunciate.

Edit; Age also has a sharper ‘tch’ sound when spoken in those accents. There are probably accents that use a softer ‘g’ sound

I grew up in an area that never got snow days. Closest we got was ash snow, but that didn’t cancel school ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The trick is to like burned bread. God I love the taste of charcoal.

I’ll shill up for skill up’s website that spun up from his ‘This Week in Gaming’. He has some great coverage on indie games and always dedicates a segment to ‘put this on your radar’.

Paul Tassi from Forbes also has some really good takes and sources in the industry for those AAA games.

Oh yeah, he’s a peach. To be clear I’ve been referencing the Erasmus v Luther thing as not necessarily a pro Luther thing. Last I checked the Catholic Church and Pope are still very much around.

I’ve been thinking about making a meme for a while; theologists/AP Euro nerd enjoy;

I’ve been using the Desiderius Erasmus v Martin Luther analogy a lot recently

This and full white dev/publisher logo screens. I have a pretty large HDR monitor and whenever I boot up a Bandai Namco game I’ll flashback myself if I don’t look away in time.

Emulating Switch I realized how much I love the button prompts. Since the controller could be rotated they just filled in the button to press.
