Vntage Story is pretty neat, it does require a WAN connection to start it for the first time but AFAIK it’s possible to play it completely offline afterwards.

Beimg as mechanically complex as it is you’d think you need a wiki open the entire time, but the ingame “guide” has everything you need to know.

I don’t know about the state of public multiplayer servers, but it is LAN compatible and it actively supports modding!

The duplication never made any sense to me, I’m not aware of any OS’ mechanisms for ensuring that files don’t get fragmented;
idk about Windows, but the Slim version was just as fast on Linux when I had the game on an HDD - most of the mission loading time is CPU bound anyway.

It’s still a great game - it has a whole bunch of issues, but a fraction of the online community is making it look like playing it will burn your house down and frame you for the assassination of JFK.

Hey, there’s no need to be mean just because they have a þorn addiction

As Bungie demonstrates: you can take the studio out of the Microsoft management that makes passionate employees quit, but you can’t take the Microsoft management that makes passionate employees quit out of the studio.

It says “top left”? That’s wrong, it’s the top right corner

Impressive that they managed to get Gnome running on it

No, that one’s just Hunt Down The Freeman

Ah, a reference to the latest moist critical video

still 3x slower and annoying when dealing with slopes (= all the time) :c

My favorite part of the game by far - with the least favorite part being my friends demanding silly things like “making pretty railway pillars” and “bringing everything to a single place and processing everything locally”…

Satisfactory has quite the satisfactory railway mechanics: in addition to what you say you want with them, you also have to place proper semaphores in order not to have them crashing each other.

Efficient networks require roundabouts and double one-way tracks, but sometimes it’s much more convenient to either have maze-like single one-way tracks (makes paths longer) or two-way tracks (blocks traffic, and gets worse the longer it is).

… there is no “intellgence” with vehicle paths, though: trucks and trains always pick the shortest path, and if they’ve gotta wait, they’re gonna wait (unless you screw up the semaphores, in which case kaboom).

Did that stop Nintendo lately?

The ironic thing about this comment is that OOP used the greentext format (markdown quotes on platforms that don’t support markdown quotes), from the other nazi network

Unironically this is just me with arch linux btw 2: Electric Terminaloo

I’d rather have 5 problems with a piece of software and being able to investigate/fix them, than have 1 problem and be told “whoopsie doopsie, something went wrong, we made a fucky wucky, go pound sand about it”

The missing ‘r’ makes me arrabbiato >:C

Ohm y god…

No, no, you’re doing it wrong, you shouldn’t drink and drive.

You need to do all the drinking beforehand, so that you aren’t distracted behind the wheel!

You’d be surprised at the amount of people here on Lemmy who insist that Twitter screenshots fully classify as memes and that they belong here… or maybe it was a different memes comm on another instance when I involved myself in a massive fight about it.
