Based on games that I've 100% myself.

  • The Stanley Parable
  • Graveyard keeper
  • Out of space (This is a couch co-op, me and my SO 100% this game and still play it regularly with one mod installed to enable huge ship sizes)

Wait, so you can't elect someone a third time even if it's not consecutive? For a example in Brazil it's illegal to elect someone third times in a row, but two times, someone else gets elected, then re-elect that person again is okay. In fact the current president has already been president twice in the past.

The iOS version also has nothing to do with their lawsuit of Apple, they lost that one. It's due to an unrelated law in the EU, which is why this is only available in the EU.

The state of California also determined that 30% tax was okay for Apple to charge, so they're not very objective with their determinations.

But they didn't. Let's look at the facts:

  1. There are alternative stores on Android since forever.
  2. From 1, Opening a secondary store on Android was always an option.
  3. 30% they claim is abusive is the industry standard, i.e. no one is taking advantage of their monopoly to enforce that, because even in markets without a monopoly that's the amount charged.
  4. Epic lost their lawsuit against Apple, which was the only company he was suing that actually enforced a monopoly in their platform.
  5. Secondary stores are allowed on Apple in the EU as a result of DMA which has nothing to do with Epic.
  6. From 5, Opening a secondary store on Apple is now an option regardless of what Epic did.

So you have one company that sued two others to be able to launch their store there, one of the companies wasn't preventing them from doing so, and they lost their lawsuit against the other one. Completely unrelated to that, the EU forced that second company to allow third-party stores. Conclusion, Epic's lawsuit has nothing to do with this announcement.

Depends on your board. I had a Redragon K530, here are the list of mods I applied to it in order of price:

  • Put foam on the bottom (the type of foams that come with PC components works great), stuff like this
  • Added O-rings
  • Replaced the switches with Redragon A113 Bullet-QT soft tactile

I think the switches made the biggest impact, but that's also the most expensive and it requires your board to be hot swappable.

What happens if you run commands on that blinking cursor? E.g. it you run ls do you get an output? I've had that happen in the past, don't remember the reason though.

But that's nothing to do with pay to win, that is a form of balancing. If you're bad at the game the game gives you advantages so you can play with the big boys. Hopefully the game gradually turns off those advantages when you start getting good and high skill matches have no one with those advantages on.

That being said I've never played the game, or watched anything about it, so I might be missinterpreting what you're saying, but to me it sounds like a good balancing system to keep noobs from being frustrated and experts from destroying everyone who's not at their level of skill. It's like if CS gave you more damage or auto-aim if your account was low K/D ratio, they're trying to make everyone be on a leveled play field. Obviously competitive matches need to have that turned off, but for people playing just for fun that's the difference between every time I spawn I die and I can kill someone every once in a while.

Lots of great answers, but I would like to know from you, WHY did you leave reddit?

For lots of us the last straw was closing down the API, since that meant we were forced into the official app. Such a thing is impossible on Lemmy because it's federated, so if an instance decided to do that, it would just get ignored by everyone else.

I've used ChimeraOS a while back. From what I heard Bazzite should be on a similar level to SteamOS, so if you're okay with the limitations of a Steam Deck and just want that on your PC then you might want to try Bazzite. That being said that's an OS for a PC that will be a console, just like SteamOS, it's not a general purpose Linux and you might get issues trying to do day-to-day stuff on it.

Also I don't know how you install mods, if it's via steam workshop they should work flawlessly, if you need something else you might have to jump through some hoops to get it, but again it's the same hoops you would need on SteamOS.

Nah, Deathwing is 4 players co-op and never saw anyone complain about it.
