I prefer good gameplay are fun cutscenes. Both add value, but I preferred the newer games over the old ones, in terms of gameplay.
This doesn’t mean either of us is wrong or right, simply that it’s okay to have different preferences.

You’re completely in your right to think that. I’m also glad there’s an audience that thinks otherwise.
I get the sentiment, even though I wasn’t too much a fan of the original series. That said, while sales don’t equal quality, nor does sticking to the same thing. Changing style, direction or genre doesn’t equal lack of quality. I was quite a fan of Origins and Oddysey.
The real risk is losing the original fanbase, which did happen quite a bit, probably.
A big difference is that, instead of leaving all content behind because it was only hosted there, you still have a lot of content as only a piece of the federated content disappears (or defederates, or paywalls, w/e)
That sounds like it has to get worse before it can get better. Having trump would create motivation to improve things for getting a better candidate next election, something like that?
Doesn’t sound like a great option either. It’s not like there’s a ‘good’ option, just a ‘slightly better’ one.
Non-US guy here. I don’t get why there’s a choice whether to vote for him or not, when you know the alternative is Trump.
It’s clear Biden isn’t a great option, and there’s probably plenty of reasons not to want him. But is any of those reasons gonna get better in the next 4 years when his opponent would win?
I’m in a position where I can’t access my desktop for a few months, and my Steamdeck is absolutely great for lazy couch gaming. It runs pretty much any game I play atm, and with some tweaking per game, the controls are almost always great.
But I also use my Switch from time to time. It’s a bit more portable, it’s a kind of “just works” device where I don’t need to worry about controls or tweaks, and Tears of the Kingdom runs significantly better than it ever did on my Steamdeck, last time I tried.
It sounds like a Switch would be the best option for your use case, if you’d have to pick one. Something the Switch does very well is being able to pause any game by just putting it in standby and not worrying about it. Makes it ideal to play in between doing other stuff.
Tried it a while ago, but without any success. I’m limited to a steam deck, and the controls simply don’t work at all in when in Frame fighter.
And as an added bonus, trying to open this in “Calendar” would show up a blank screen, that closes again, opening again in “Outlook (new)” on Windows 11.
You’d think Microsoft would get the hang of versioning at this point…
It’s small compared to most flagship phones. I’ve used a Moto G100 for a few years before switching to the S24, and it’s an insane difference
I remember looking into that a while ago, but it’s not like I can just instantly hook up my WhatsApp or Telegram account into that, right? I’d need a server to act as a bridge.
And I wouldn’t be so keen on giving that kind of access to a random server.
For me, the difference is how they go about doing it. The tracking Microsoft does is baked into the OS you use, for the sake of… well, not for seeing if people in your friends list also use Word or Teams.
Valve tracks a lot of data too, but also seems transparent about it. They show usercount, active players, it shows up for your Steam friends (if you want). And at the end of the day, they don’t need to appeal to some shareholders. To me it feels like they track for the sake of their products, not for the sake of selling this data.
That said, I do think I’m pretty biased towards Valve in this, so I’m not sure how fair my view on it is
No arguing there, the specific situation is shit either way
It’s fine to do that kind of work for free for the sake of creating and maintaining a nice community for something you enjoy. It’s like charity work.
The problem is that there’s a big company that’s profiting massively from this ‘charity work’.
Imagine feeling like your phone’s brand defines if you’re poor or not lol
I like the contrast with this comment about how web is starting to do too much. I agree with both sentiments, so it would be great to find the golden mean.
Yeah, I’m all for bashing companies regarding privacy and whatnot, but this is just informing/warning you about account security.
In the Netherlands, it’s either “Jan Smit” (both a very common first and last name, but also a local celebrity’s name) or “Henk de Vries” which IIRC is the most common name here.
I also vaguely remember some old Dutch forum naming everyone Henk de Vries by default.
I’ve had it running with zero issues on my Steamdeck for a while now, so I’m guessing that, aside from some manual setup without SteamOS, proton should work just fine.
It was right before realizing I’m in a burnout. Too much in my private life going on, kids, housing, study, full time jobs.
The last time before that must’ve been years, but I’ve been holding it in for as long as I could, I now realize.
