Chaotic Entropy

If that man could live on snark alone.

Yeah… by these bizarre stipulations, there are few dozen games ranging from decent enough to poor quality that even pass the first hurdle of being “impressive”.

What a bizarrely restrictive set of criteria that focus on distribution logistics, rather than game.

It’s going to be a fun historical period to look back on when there are just huge gaps where IP/product control became so powerful that no record of certain things were allowed to exist.

Metal Fatigue

A fun little 2000 era RTS with customisable mech chassis units/base building/multiple fighting levels per map (separate air/land/underground maps). In hindsight, it has a fiendishly difficult campaign which I remember it being a lot easier than I find it now…

It’s the thing you only tell your “ride-or-die bitch” server.

I’m pretty anti-brexit, but I’m not sure whether I’m pro-rejoining. Taking the clusterfuck we’ve landed in and turning it in to somehow an even bigger clusterfuck may not necessarily yield good results and definitely won’t be some silver bullet. The massive middle finger we’d justifiably get from the EU should probably give us pause.

Almost feels Borderlandsy.

They’re been working on BG3 for so long as a studio… I can imagine wanting to work on something else.

Here’s hoping for a Games Workshop based RPG, maybe a Warhammer Old World story.

I’m on DietPi 9 and the latest version for Debian 12 is 1.17.1, sadly. Though I do see 1.19.1 is in testing as of today, according to Debian’s package tracker site. Probably not worth trying to install an unstable version of it.

Weird rubber duck faces are kind of a rubber duck thing, and the mega duck seems like a pile of various sized ducks.

Considering the bath has a TV screen, I assume it is something electronic but it is too blurry to see. You can have sockets for shaving gear or something more specific. It all looks very Japanese.

Under water hair splays out and floats/waves in the water as pictured, out of water it is slick.

Nothing really leaps out in these pictures to me that says “that’s impossible” rather than just unclear due to angle and picture quality. If anything the degree of consistency between each of the separate images gives me more cause to think it is real.

Is it AI…? There’s a separate pic of the same cat and rubber ducks do come in different sizes, especially if you’re aiming for novelty.

Host PC is AMD graphics which the host end of Moonlight (the game streaming tool) doesn’t support, but there is an open source fork called Sunshine that you can use instead. It’s a Windows 10 machine, so no need for Linux and is wired to my LAN with a powerline adaptor.

Client is my Raspberry Pi 400, running Moonlight, on the latest version of PiOS with my controllers bluetoothed. It’s wired to my LAN with a network switch and connected to my TV.

I swapped over to a Sunshine host (non-NVidia version of Moonlight) + Moonlight client combo for game streaming and it absolutely blew Steamlink out of the water for me. Went from lag, resolution switching and disconnects to buttery smooth on my Pi400 at 1080p.

Sup Com FA was a pretty elegant UI, yeah. Very unobtrusive but combined with the split screens, multi screens and all the hotkeys it was so versatile. Probably a bitch to create though and not used by most players at the time.

At this stage, I am loath to go back to any game where the UI takes up half the screen. RTS games especially just used so much screen real estate back in the day, that couldn’t be scaled or hidden to get any back. Like playing your game through a letterbox surrounded by stickers.

Yeah, I don’t know how unpopular the opinion is, but the original Witcher didn’t strike me as a particularly good game. It was a… fine… I guess game, but with mature elements and tone that other games in the genre lacked. I slogged through it in preparation of playing Witcher 3.

There are specific things about OoT that irritate me, but I can generally still get some enjoyment.

I feel bad for the one he just keeps dunking on.

I wonder if they’ll spend as much time defining what an LLM shouldn’t be talking about/doing as they would defining what a non-LLM should be talking about/doing.
