Children of Morta has great storytelling and good Gauntlet-style gameplay :-) Risk of Rain 2 is real fun, and good to play with friends!

i can agree on Control, Outward, DRG and Remnant, they are all excellent!

Gen Zero and Kena are in my backlog - will put them on top of my list based on your recommendations, thanks ;-)

Taking a stroll through my library:

• The Ascent: Cyberpunk Action RPG, nice action and story, single/coop.
• Star Valor: Top-Down Action space. not so much story wise, but great gameplay, costumisation, fleets, and the upcoming addon will add station building and (more) faction warfare.
• Weird West: from the Arkane Austin crew (Prey 2016, Dishonored). Good story, immersive gameplay, and a innovative world. It’s 3rd person, but there is a mod which makes it 1st person!
• Mortal Sin: Roguelike Melee-FPS. lots of fun, and the dev just replaced the level generation completely, adding verticality and much more variety.
• Golden light: another Roguelike FPS, its on the weird side, but a lot to explore, had a lot of fun with that one!
• Hardspace: Shipbreaker: scrapping spaceships in zero-g has never been more fun! good storyline highlighting the plight of workers in an inhumane system, and what they can do about it.
• Styx: Master of Shadows: Thief-like gameplay, well polished.
• Red Faction: Guerilla: Older game, Open world is a bit bland, but the realtime destruction of large buildings with explosives will never get old
• and if you haven’t played it yet: the System Shock Remake is an absolute joy to play.

My current FPS fix is Deadlink: another roguelike FPS, very tight gunplay and movement, good looking too.

if you can give a few examples what games you enjoyed, i can probably point you in the right direction… i think i have a slight game collecting problem with a few thousand titles, but at least i can help people like you out lol

you download the corresponding depots using the console / steamcmd. Here’s the process using the console.

Yeah, one of the best examples of this is the Vienna public transit network. About 1000 vehicles (bus, tram, light rail, subway) in service at rush hour, a daily total distance of over 200000km traveled, more year-long ticket owners than car owners in the city, and about 2 million “travels” per day, which is about 30% of all traveling done over the city (including pedestrian and bike traffic)

If that traffic would be routed only by car, the city would be a giant parking space; to compare, one subway train carries about 900 people in rush hour, which replaces 790 cars (avg 1,14 persons per car here). the subway interval in the rush hour is about 4 minutes. i live at one of the subway final destinations, which is on one of the far ends of the city - and i can be at the other side of town in about 25 minutes.

And constructing and running a public transit network is a pretty nice boost to the local economy, creates a whole lot of jobs. sounds like something a lot of us cities could make use of.

Mixed traffic works here, it allows mobility for all social classes (yearlong tickets cost 365€, so about 400$ incl. taxes), nearly all stations are barrier free.

i have bad news for you

The reason for that fanclub is that publishing a game on Steam does NOT require you to use any DRM at all. That’s a choice every publisher makes for themselves.

Furthermore, the Steam DRM itself is weak af (as in “circumvention has been automated”) and as non-invasive as it gets (a simple licence check). All of this is in line with their public stance (“Piracy is a service problem”).

I pirate more shit than i could ever play, but still buy games on Steam (But only the stuff i really want to keep playing like Baldurs Gate 3, or small indie titles that are just gems (i have to namedrop ΔV: Rings of Saturn and Star Valor here, because i come back to them ALL the time)

I would rather recommend using KeepassXC, and storing and syncing the database with your other devices using Syncthing. Supereasy to set up, and works flawlessly with my pc and my phone.

KeepassXC has nice features like global autotype btw, so for webpages i can insert my payment information with one hotkey. no need to save your CC in your browser.

yeah, they are blocking VPNs; cant get there using Mullvad currently. whatever, i’m using LibRedirect to use privacy friendly frontends for Youtube/Reddit/TikTok/Maps, so i can still read stuff there anyway

From the Report, Chapter 10.5.2:

If the conditions are suitable, emissions of soot and water vapour can trigger the formation of contrails (Kärcher 2018), which can spread to form extensive contrail-cirrus cloud coverage. Such cloud coverage is estimated to have a combined ERF that is about 57% of the current net ERF of global aviation (Lee et al. 2021), although a comparison of cirrus cloud observations under pre- and post-COVID-19 pandemic conditions suggest that this forcing could be smaller (Digby et al. 2021). Additional effects from aviation from aerosol-cloud interactions on high-level ice clouds through soot (Chen and Gettelman 2013; Zhou and Penner 2014; Penner et al. 2018), and lower-level warm clouds through sulphur (Righi et al. 2013; Kapadia et al. 2016) are highly uncertain, with no best estimates available (Lee et al. 2021).

The 2 papers listed which quantify the effect:

• Lee, D.S. et al., 2021: The contribution of global aviation to anthropogenic climate forcing for 2000 to 2018. Atmos. Environ. , 244, doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2020.117834. Link to paper
• Digby, R.A.R., N.P. Gillett, A.H. Monahan, and J.N.S. Cole, 2021: An Observational Constraint on Aviation-Induced Cirrus From the COVID-19-Induced Flight Disruption. Geophys. Res. Lett. , 48(20) , e2021GL095882-e2021GL095882, doi:10.1029/2021GL095882. Link to paper

yeah, after helping the 3rd guy with moving his gaming rig (those big towers were not lightweight too, some of them were heavy like they were made of lead) to the LAN i normally tapped out and let the others cover the rest.

you were banned for trolling and not backing down when the downvotes for your posts, which resembled a schizophrenic outburst, started rolling in. don’t lie man, the modlogs are public.

Used beginning letters of the words in song verse sprinkled with special characters for the rythm, feels good while typing

i agree that it shouldn’t be a police priority; but i would still not visit a pub using black market meat… i like cheap food, but i love my intestines more lol

they pay a shitton of money to pull old devs out of retirement, because noone can code cobol on the required level anymore

I just looked it up and yes, you can install kodi on it: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/steam-link-install-kodi/

the latest kodi release for steam link is pretty old tho, dating from 2019. https://github.com/garbear/kodi-steamlink/releases

i personally just stream my desktop and then use jellyfin/plex or my browser for whatever media i need.

i’m still running a hardware steam link for our in home streaming (and have another one as backup should it die). the shield and the SL were the best options back then, and everything afterwards kinda sucked

i agree, my eyes are pretty good, but this is not useable. funnily enough my chosen lemmy frontend (alexandrite) would fix the colors, but its too small to read; and when you open the image in a new tab to zoom in, the colors are unuseable.
