- Comment on Please suggest good progression based multiplayer games 21 hours ago:
I’d suggest Helldivers 2, Darktide or Vermintide 2, World War Z
I haven’t played Space Marines 2 (yet) but it’s definitely on our backlog with some friends
Dying Light is good fun too in coop
- Comment on I'm bored and desperately search for a proper game 2 days ago:
The first Witcher game is quite old but you could like the gameplay (it’s not action oriented, unlike the 2 following Witcher games)
It’s honestly not great looking but the story is great, and who knows, you might fall in love with a great franchise :)
- Comment on I'm bored and desperately search for a proper game 2 days ago:
I’ll second Dragon Age since it’s less action oriented than Mass Effect (which is great but OP seems pore interested in strategy/management than shooting)
Mass Effect has a “tactical pause” feature though, but it feels less Baldur-like :)
- Comment on Industry Insider Claims A Spin-off Fallout Game Could Be Coming Next 4 days ago:
We’re never getting TES VI, right ?
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
Well, no offense but getting away from Apple should be a great first step to fossify your digital life :)
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
I just use emails with my friends who are on Whatsapp
One of them migrated from Gmail to Protonmail so maybe he could help move to a “non GAFAM” environment
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
The SpamBlocker I was refering to is on Android (f-droid), I’m not sure about iOS
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
I only used Discord with a bunch of friends I play with, no “official game servers” so it was pretty easy
The hard task will be to have some other non-gaming friends to join, because they use Whatsapp (which me and my gaming friends refuse to touch)
- Comment on What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts? 1 week ago:
AntennaPod is a pretty great podcast player, far better than the one Google did (and abandonned)
Newsblur is the only RSS reader that I’ve found that can apply filters to feeds
I’ve switched from Discord to Element with some friends for daily text chat and vocal chat (video games) and it’s less cluttered than Discord, and the voice even sounds better
SpamBlocker is a better phone/SMS spam filter than the proprietary ones I’ve tried
Firefox (and forks) has been my browser for more than 20 years, I can’t go back to proprietary ones
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 1 week ago:
Prey 2 : youtu.be/BPkHZfjK5z4
Some friends and I were so hooked on the gameplay demo (we’re big fans of the Mass Effect trilogy), then it was cancelled and replaced by Prey, which was very different (more horror centric and less space opera)
- Comment on 'Oh god': There's a buried Steam help page that shows how much money you've ever spent on the platform, and you may not want to know 1 week ago:
Less than 1000€ for dozens of games I’ve played, I think the average price I payed is 15€, so I don’t feel robbed
I mostly buy on GOG whenever possible though, even if it means I have to wait a year or two
- Comment on What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion? 1 week ago:
Woops, typo
- Comment on That official Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remake will reportedly shadow-drop next week, finally putting us robe-wearing Patrick Stewarts out of our speculation misery 1 week ago:
I’ve played the original multiple times but barely touched the main story because I didn’t like the whole “gates to oblivion” aspect. The guilds and side quests were nice though.
- Comment on What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion? 1 week ago:
Odyssey is more recent but Black Fag definitely has better storms
- Comment on A funny thing about Americans and calendar dates 1 week ago:
I can be OK with that
But not with having elected the Trump of EU
- Comment on Are there any games you don't play as it was intended to be played? If so, what game and how? 2 weeks ago:
I played stealth games like Hitman like a mass murderer.
I also play the “infiltrator” class in Mass Effect without tactical cloak. I mean it’s a mix of soldier and engineer, why should it be focused on stealth ?
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 4 weeks ago:
The Witcher, I hope the remake we’ll be good
The Witcher 2 is more than fine
- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 4 weeks ago:
I didn’t know that, thanks for the tip : en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendan_Eich
- Comment on One-handed games? 4 weeks ago:
Have they tried narrative games like the ones from Telltale, Dontnod, … ?
- Comment on Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! 5 weeks ago:
The Witcher 3, followed by the Mass Effect trilogy (I consider it as a whole)
And honestly, Cyberpunk 2077 could complete the top 3
But if I have to consider multiplayer games, with 3000+ hours on Warframe (considering I haven’t touched it for years), I guess it could also be considered my favorite (I think I also spent 1000h on ME3 multi)
- Comment on Atomfall Hands-On Preview: Rebellion’s New IP is More Than Just British Fallout - WGB article 1 month ago:
I’d need to replay it (which I might this year) to point out specific parts, but I remember some dialogues/characters being a bit “childish”. I’m not talking “butt stallion” childish but different from the Fallout humour (and yes Fallout can be funny too)
I mean they could sell me this as a trailer for a Borderlands game : youtu.be/zNmjNA6dtEA
- Comment on Atomfall Hands-On Preview: Rebellion’s New IP is More Than Just British Fallout - WGB article 1 month ago:
Outer Worlds had the same issue, the Borderlands “humour” and bright colors didn’t mix with the “Fallout in space” overall theme
- Comment on Which co-op first person shooters would you recommend? 1 month ago:

Moto Racer 2 soundtrack, my favorite ska punk “album”
