- Comment on Rogue Point is a new tactical shooter from Half-Life remake Black Mesa developer Crowbar Collective 1 week ago:
If it’s that, then all good. I’m just traumatized by what publishers have been putting out lately.

Yup, MTX. I don’t want to pay or grind a battlepass.

Will it be F2P + MTX?
- Comment on Luanti (formerly Minetest) v5.10.0 out now bringing UI updates, fancier shaders, renaming work 1 week ago:
This is a real deal-breaker. I just wish there was a Minecraft clone for PC with mods and controller support and split screen.
I know there are ways to do this, but it’s not something my kid will be able to deal with.

Unlock cosmetics, weapons and campaign modifiers to create loadouts specific to the needs of the mission.
Hard pass for me.

- Comment on Mozilla grants Ente $100k 1 month ago:
The selfhosted photo management boom happened when Google announced paid plans for Google Photos. That’s why there are lots of alternatives aiming at replicating every feature.
In my case, I don’t want to manually tag anything. I want a FOSS Google Photos. Nothing more, nothing else. If Immich was orosuction ready I would have akready switched. I haven’t read much about Ente, but I have no interest in the rest because they lack some key feature I really appreciate.

So, what do they (emulators) call that feature (input lag hack)?
- Comment on SpacebarChat - a selfhosted, Discord-compatible communication platform 1 month ago:
Currently there is no voice or video support in any Spacebar instance. This is a very difficult feature to get working, especially given that we must implement it the exact same way as Discord.com for client compatibility. We would be incredibly thankful for any assistance.
Damn.
- Comment on Is overwatch 2 really that bad? 2 months ago:
I play Overwatch since OW1’s launch. It’s competitive/ranked play mode is incomparable to say… CounterStrike 2’s level of polish for example. That said, it’s crazy fun in Quick Play (unranked), and if you are looking for a hero shooter where the whole hero is entirely different from others, then it’s the best free to play hero shooter since all microtransactions available are only cosmetics. No pay to win mechanic available whatsoever.
The bad press is because between OW1 and OW2 they completly trashed the competitive scene, while also overpromising and not delivering at all, a PVE campaign mode. After that, they moved to a semi-pay-to-win model where there where timed exclusive heroes behind a battle pass, after that you could unlock them by grinding, but that model has evolved into a cosmetic-only model. So, no more semi-pay-to-win, only cosmetics.
So, right now, OW2 is closer to OW1’s greatness than it has ever been since they trashed it. Not there yet in terms of balance, polish, competitive mode, but it has grown in the amount of modes, heros and maps.
For me, for what I value, OW2 is the best hero shooter. We’ll see when I get a hold of Marvel Rivals.
- Comment on Celebrating 6 years since Valve announced Steam Play Proton for Linux 2 months ago:
So much THIS. Yes, absolutely. Thanks for reminding me I broke a gazillion PCs as a kid.
- Comment on Celebrating 6 years since Valve announced Steam Play Proton for Linux 2 months ago:
The challenge I face in my family is that my kids want to play what other kids play, and that means Fortnite and FIFA primarily, both of which can’t run under Proton and their respective publishers are to blame for intentionally not supporting the platform because it doesn’t make business sense to them (cost of support vs. quantity of users).
I will hold the door as long as I can, but if this doesn’t change, my kids will eventually ask me for a Switch or a PS5.

What’s the appeal of the product? Why would I want this instead of alternatives? Honest question.

BOPS6 gives nasty players the ability to dive in any direction while > shooting, similar to Max Payne.
Doesn’t sell enough?
