  As much as I’m a proud Linux user and Microsoft aren’t at all in line with my values, I upvoted as this is massively relevant to the world of retro computing, and I found it interesting. :)

  Guessing a lot of folks will have reflexively downvoted based on the red rag that is the word Microsoft, but nice to read historical stuff like this, thank you for sharing it! :)

  Eww :(

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Studio Will Work On Several Projects Simultaneously, Insipired From CDPR⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I appreciate the thing Obsidian do where they seem to make things in parallel so there’s constantly income (in theory) - hopefully still do good games and it’s a way to stop layoffs after projects end. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA has open sourced Command & Conquer: Red Alert under GPLv3⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is brilliant! :) aw, I hope it benefits the OpenRA developers and means more fun things to play eventually :)

  Wait… this is EA… are they okay? This is very unlike them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fanatical have a great Special Editions Bundle and a Simulator Collection Bundle worth a look⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely! It’s a solid game, and each game is pretty self-contained, especially new vegas as the setting and writing is very “self-contained”. There’s nods and things, but I never felt like I missed something. :)

  Also it’s just a lot of fun, especially if you like choices and RPG things like perks :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Text Detective - Derek Maker⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I really enjoyed the game, but… I did lose despite having fully solved the case and got a confession. Maida told me it was okay to do, but it wasn’t?

  spoiler

  >Me: likewise, you’re much too kind. Am I okay to formally accuse ___? >SERGEANT MAIDA VALE: Absolutely, Inspector. We have ___ confession, but it’s always stronger to have additional evidence to support the charge. With this new information linking ___ and ___, and the suspicious timing of their phone call, we can confidently proceed with formally accusing ___ of theft. It strengthens our case against all three of them. >OH NO! You’ve accused someone without proper evidence or a confession. You’re terrible at your job. YOU’RE PART OF THE PROBLEM, YOU LOSE!

  thanks for making and sharing this! :) I’m playing now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft would really like you to stop using Windows 10 this year⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am helping by installing Linux Mint, I’m sure this is what they wanted! :) I like it much more than 10 :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patient gamers, which games have you discovered/played this week?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have been waiting for the AEW Wrestling game Fight Forever to be cheap, and am having a lovely time! It’s very fun to play, and has an okay roster (i got DLC with it).

  I wouldn’t be thrilled with buying on release at £50 and then £80 on DLC, but under 20 for the lot seemed okay :) definitely not perfect, but a fun game with some cool details. :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Typhoo Tea teeters on the brink of administration⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel bad (job losses are bad), but I need to note the Tea/teeter pun in the headline.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Omg shadow of memories! What a pick :) great game that I’ve heard barely anyone talk about :)

  It feels like the rules to say an official english translation for Mother 3! Loved playing it (if Nintendo read this I did not play it)

  Guiltily I’d also love a WWF Smackdown or Here Comes the Pain remaster, same arcade gameplay, same roster, or updated but just prettier and expanded! :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Ever Happened to MSN Messenger?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Emesene and pidgin were great! :)

  My peavey modeling amp was very proud that it went up to 13! :}

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Harada’s Take on Limited Interest in Tekken Classic Collection | Retro Gaming News 24/7⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Being entirely honest, I would be on board with any tekken game that didn’t do season passes and DLC. :) The classics were great, and the newer games are fun too, and I’d still be playing the new games if not for that.

  That said, I’d love a modern tekken 3 - I’d even be fine with a reskin of 8 that had those characters looking like they did (why not, maybe some extra ones too), volleyball, force mode etc.

  There’s interest from me if they don’t paywall stuff in what’s already an expensive game. :)
