Sad to see that so many FANTASTIC games ended up with nil, because E33 stole the show so hard, but it’s tough to argue that they didn’t deserve each one.

I’ll argue it.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a gorgeous creation. The music is wonderful, the scenery is lovely, and the English voice acting surprisingly good.

But its gameplay is bog standard JRPG battles with a basic parry mechanic. Nothing original or interesting there.

I feel it deserved every award it received for being a work of art, but Game of the Year? No.

Hi-Fi Rush was released before that time, but it was Denuvo-encumbered until about a week ago.

Pre-ordering games encourages publishers to release buggy, unoptimized, incomplete, garbage.

And, since there’s no scarcity, the assurance you might get from pre-ordering physical goods doesn’t exist here.

Please don’t do it.

Wolf duel fuel range

It harnesses the powers of jealousy and ego to create nourishing meals!

WTF would those items be?

descriptions, depictions, or other content that inappropriately disparage Americans past or living (including persons living in colonial times)

I see. So this is a Trump administration-mandated campaign to whitewash history.

A giant gang of traitors to their country and to humanity.

I can’t think of a punishment too severe for them.

Thrower is a viable build in this game, and there is a source of rats in Act 2. :)

I wonder why the down votes?

I don’t know (they weren’t from me) but let’s remember that heat control is not the same as heat distribution. Some induction ranges don’t offer any good low-heat modes, so people quickly discover that their gas stoves are better for delicate work than the induction model they tried, and assume the technology is responsible. In reality, the problem is not induction, but stove models that implement it poorly. So people may be downvoting the misconception.

“Calls to scrap” the disclosures make it sound like a societal movement, when in fact it’s just two people with obvious bias: Tim Sweeney and some guy who promotes Tim Sweeney’s products on youtube.

I don’t give a flying frog what they think. When I allow someone to sell me something, I like to know what’s in it.

I have seen the amdgpu driver say ring gfx_0.0.0 timeout, but soft recovered every once in a while on certain kernel releases. It’s possible that there are multiple causes for messages like that.

I didn’t get a system crash; just a few seconds of sluggish behavior. In at least one case, it turned out to be a kernel driver bug that was fixed in a later version that reverted the offending commit. However, I suppose that ongoing work in this driver may lead to the problem returning.

Thanks for posting your findings. Have you reported them upstream, or searched for existing reports there?

Debian is just not present on gaming set ups

You are mistaken.

It’s not popular in that arena, but it’s definitely present.

When you have some free time, you might find it interesting to read about Edward Bernays.

Would you please put yourself on a cooldown, and be more selective about what you post here?

You’re flooding the community like an unhinged bot.

Also, a great deal of what you’re posting belongs in niche communities, if anywhere. Not this general-interest one.

Thanks for clarifying. :)

You, I guess?

You’re saying that I am the ton of problems they were referring to? That’s either nonsensical or very rude.

Your.problem might be a perfect example of one of the many problems that keep popping up, that seem to only happen on the flatpak version.

What are you talking about? Running Steam in a flatpak works for me.

I’ve been using Steam in a flatpak for a couple years now, I think. What ton of problems are you referring to?

You’re not alone. The visuals are nice, the voice acting is good, and the music is gorgeous, but the gameplay is very repetitive JRPG combat with a minor twist.

As art, I could see it winning awards. As a game, I think others are more deserving.
