Good, hopefully they invest their time making the other writing aspects as well as gameplay, better. Romance isn’t a necessity in RPGs.

I was already intrigued by this Disco Elysium-inspired, D&D-based RPG where you play as the world's worst cleric, but its demo blew my expectations out of the water in c/games@sh.itjust.works

Haven’t read the article but the “worst Cleric” reminds me of an old YouTube series called JourneyQuest that followed the party of the worst Wizard ever, who was so bad because he had dyslexia and couldn’t read spells correctly.

Linux 6.8 Network Optimizations Can Boost TCP Performance For Many Concurrent Connections By ~40% in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Unfortunately, many games where people care about that lower latency tend to be competitive with some kind of anti-cheat that doesn’t mesh with Linux.

Not sure anyone in this thread knows what the word “monopoly” means. Steam has competition, it all just comparatively sucks.

10 years ago, DayZ taught me some very valuable lessons: do not buy into the hype trains, never preorder games, and rarely trust early access games. However I’m glad they didn’t abandon it, and fixed a lot of issues along the way.

I really hate the pricing trend. But I’ve been waiting a long time for this game. Perhaps Humble Store will allow the Choice discount.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Is Dead in c/games@sh.itjust.works

It’s never worked for me too well on PC. If I recall it doesn’t have native widescreen support or something. It made the UI difficult to navigate. I love the game and played it on Xbox originally, but typically gave up tweaking it on PC. Was looking forward to the remake; I’d pay for the convenience. But I get what you’re saying.

Larian founder Swen Vincke wants more studios to make CRPGs after Baldur's Gate 3's success in c/games@sh.itjust.works

40K Rogue Trader is something I’ve had a bit of hope for for a while. Something about 40K videogames never hit right though imo.
