No, thanks

Slopya Nadella: “Oh no, people are complaining this is the worst windows ever! We must do something!”

and this is the result. /slowclap

Gymnasts. They’re fucking awesome in regards to what they can do with their bodies

No idea if it was this one, but I find it amusing

It’s been a roller coaster of bad decisions for probably over 100 years now. Buenos Aires was once called “The Paris of South America”, but that went to shit with the 1929 depression

Some steam games might still have the steampi and steamworks dll’s, so that’s still 2 bits that need to be deleted before they’re effectively identical.

Having the installers can be important, not every game may work out of the box if you only copy the installed folder to a different machine, some important configurations that are set up in different folders, like in %appdata%, might be missing. Steam checks if DirectX and the proper MSVC versions are installed, I suppose the GOG installers do that as well.

Can I come back as a black hole?

You can only download steam games from the steam app. You can download gog games from the site, without using their galaxy app

They allow you to make as many offline backup copies of the games’ installers as you want and you don’t need to use any of their services after purchase (except downloading from their site), it’s as close as it gets to “digital ownership”

Usually the UI, character limit per post (mastodon is 500, misskey-like tend to be 5000) and reactions - misskey lets instances create custom reactions, like those you can see on discord servers

Saints Row games. They’re like GTA, but increasingly over the top in their parody. You’re the boss of a criminal gang. 2 is still “normal parody” and a bit dated, 3 jumped the shark while doing a kickflip with a jet ski, 4 is even more insane.

Sleeping Dogs you play as a cop, but you can betray the law and side more with the criminals.

Warcraft 3 (old but gold) - the human campaign of the base game gets you from a hopeful young paladin prince into a cold, vengeful psychopath; the following undead campaign is said prince (well, king now) finishing the job of killing everyone and further fucking everything. The expansion has 3 extra campaigns, none with “good guys”

Divinity Original Sin (1 and 2) lets you play as big of an asshole as you’d like. Of the Elder Scrolls games, Morrowind is the one that lets you be the biggest bad guy around (you can still finish the game even if you kill every important npc and break every quest)

I don’t think i’ve ever managed to finish those fucking flight training missions.

Shit, I keep forgetting I had that game, the controls were fucking awful. I think I only ever managed to get to level 4 once or twice. It came with my console (along 13 other games, I think, including Crash 3, Mega Man Legends and Gran Turismo)

I only watched the movie some 3 years after first playing the game, when it aired on local TV. It was weird. I also recall reading somewhere that some movie game deals were made before the movies’ script was finished, so that would explain the game being completely “out of place”

I learned to avoid those early on, so I haven’t played many games based on mives.

Of the ones that i actually played, it must’ve been Batman Forever on SNES. I never figured how to get past that part in the first fucking level, where you’re expected to press up + select at a very specific spot

Brazil is mostly fine thus far, we’re kind screwed with diesel tho, which we don’t refine locally

We all know the correct answer is blue Mario

She certainly, *ahem*, arrives fast

Being ambitious isn’t always about becoming rich, just so you know. “I want to win gold at the olympics” is ambitious. “I want to join the Cirque du Soleil” is ambitious. Wanting to be among the best of any given field is ambitious and not necessarily about money.

Be careful when dismounting, you might end up yeeted at mach 5 in a random direction

She’s gained some weight, it seems
