What are some video games you avoid?
  • I’d also recommend BZFlag, Xonotic, OpenClonk, and OpenLieroX. A surprising number of people are still playing BZFlag. Xonotic has some of the most fun weapon mechanics I’ve seen in an arena shooter and pretty much all of them can be used for movement shenanigans in different ways. OpenLieroX has a wealth of fun mods to mess around with.

    Would you count GZDoom and games that use its engine? Due to its license, devs of even commercial games made with it have to publish source code if they modify the engine and the very nature of the iwad files it uses means that all of iwad’s game code (I guess except compiled ACS scripts, which people don’t use as much anymore) is in plain text.

    Also I kinda still enjoy Red Eclipse 2.0 even if I found the balance and gameplay of 1.6 better and you can kinda mess around with the weapon variables until it does feel the same. Used to enjoy doing that a lot with 1.6, even doing stuff like turning the shotgun into a chaingun.

  • Well to be more specific, you don’t have to fuck up the console to use the cart itself, which doesn’t seem to be the issue. You can wholly approve of the cart while disapproving of how a certain company is making bad use of them.

  • The second article seems actually reasonable. It even links to the first article. What it’s saying is that a Chinese company is butchering the already extremely limited number of working Sega Saturns in existence to resell them for use exclusively with their own brand of flash cart. So they basically remove the CD drive and hook up the cart directly or something.

  • People want 'dumbphones'. Will companies make them?
  • You can already buy those. They seem to commonly be referred to in online stores as ‘pocket wifi’. Just stick a sim card in them and you can manage their settings through any connected device with a web browser.

  • Already cracked
  • Besides the other points already brought up regarding this, 2 hours is just too short. Games like this often have long startup times, long intros, etc... and it’s just not enough to get a good impression of the game. At least with demos you get a good vertical slice preview of what you’re getting into.

  • What do you use to actually manage your stuff?
  • I think some plugins rely on having a desktop theme made to accommodate them otherwise you’d have to do the themeing yourself. Thankfully there are plenty that already exist which can be downloaded and applied from within Playnite itself but I do agree that the experience can be a bit of a mess. I really can’t live without it, though. Just completely changed the way I organize and launch games forever.
