meanwhile Final Fantasy VII Revelation is gonna release cross platform on day one when they HAD been timed PS5 exclusives. Clearly the right call for Square, and for consumers.

a CW on this would have been nice. I don’t wanna see this.

fired two months ago for bombing out of a PIP* and I feel so incredibly seen by this article. all my motivation and passion for making the linux and the kubernetes and the cloud things has evaporated and I have no fucking idea what to do next, thankfully I can also take some time off and I’m leaning into music as well, kinda in a cover band and likely joining another cover band.

*a PIP that my shithead of a former manager put me on the literal instant I returned to work from a double-whammy bereavement leave of first my grandpa dying, and then having to euthanize our beloved 12 year old dog. and the PIP’s core requirement turned out to be technically impossible anyways, and yet here I am

14 is a remake of 13 in C#. I never played 13, tho I tried to get it working on linux a few months ago with no success.

14’s active player count I believe has surpassed 13 and I regularly see folks on 14 who are playing 14 for their first time after playing 13 for years, and they seem quite happy with it.

Hell, there’s collaboration between (I think) monke station (ss13) and Starlight (ss14) because monke is working on moving to 14, based on Starlight’s fork, and Starlight had a big influx of players from that server who wanted to check out their potential future.

It’s fucking amazing. I mostly play on Hardlight, an 18+ furry erotic roleplay allowed server, which is also pioneering saving ships with big stashes for items, and seamless round transitions (you evac back to CC after a round, but if you have your own ship it just FTLs to CC and you remain in the world instead of going back to the new round screen, and you just FTL again to the next station). But I also have a TON of time on Starlight Alpha which is also amazing (and not ERP if you’re not into that :P)

The big differences are that ss14 runs a lot better but ss13 has a lot more content, but the content difference is rapidly shrinking. ss14 is definitely the way to go now.

Highly recommend you check it out! Can get the launcher on steam and it’s like zero effort to install and launch even on linux

I play mostly Space Station 14 where the culture is overwhelmingly enthusiastic about helping new players learn the ropes. Like, the nature of the game makes it genuinely enjoyable to welcome new folks into the fold and train them on various jobs and game mechanics. It’s so awesome.

Many servers have actively enforced rules against powergaming, as well.

No? What gave you that idea?
