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? 3 weeks 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! :)

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 1 month 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. :)

Thinking about it, I would not put it past me to have set it and forgotten 😂 it’s been a while since I played about with the settings!

You convinced me, I’m totally adding this today! :)
I also would throw in sponsorblock to that too - it skips all the “but first, Raid Shadow Legends…” “don’t forget to like share and subscribe” nonsense :)

I also can imagine New Vegas being “well, I’m going to play for a few hours… oh god it’s been four months!”
- Comment on Phish-Friendly Domain Registry “.top” Put on Notice. 3 months ago:
My mind immediately went to the band Phish… I was all excited to find a new corner of the internet about them! :) Never mind :)
- Comment on I hate Clouds - a personal perspective on why I think Clouds suck 4 months ago:
Thank you for that… going back and reading again with this was very, very funny
In this case it makes sense to have a short-term quick-and-dirty Butt deployment.

This add-on brings me joy and is related. :)
- Comment on UK Retailer GAME To End All In-Store Video Game Sales 4 months ago:
In case anyone is following this: Eurogamer are reporting that Game have denied this.
I really hope game will still sell… games, but am cynically wondering if they are measuring the reaction from this to make a decision. :/
- Comment on I guess that yellow part is where 'destroy your furniture' is located. 4 months ago:
Thank you, that’s really kind. All the more reason to enjoy that time! :)
It’s been a few years, and the way you described your dog made me smile more than anything :)

Aw I miss my dog! I used to say he’d walk into a room and think “Hi everyone! I’m a dog! Someone should play with me I think this would be good!”

hehe I read the last words a “snot much” and did a double take :)
- Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot. 8 months ago:
That’s awesome! Thank you for the rundown, I’ll save this comment for the day that I get to making the jump :) It might be a while until I can, but it would be nice to jump back over to the comfortable Linux environment again :)

Ableton working in Wine you say…? Thank you for sharing, as that would be excellent to try! :)
- Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot. 8 months ago:
Agreed, not just plugins its also Ableton Live for me! There is nothing that scratches that for me, bitwig does look promising eventually though. :)
Then on top of that wanting to develop games without learning another game engine (I’m far in and can’t change engine without starting again)
And I wanna play Baldurs Gate 3 again dammit! (To be fair I think that might work and haven’t looked) :) .
I used Linux for 5 years and loved it, have a pi and a degoogled Foss phone as much as possible. I am an ally to it all, but have usecases which dictate Windows … I think it’s not unreasonable to want something to get better without binning 70℅ of why I use my computer. :)
- Comment on Brought to you by the vertical mouse gang 9 months ago:
Yay! There are dozens of us! A cheap trackball is one of the best things I have ever bought. No pain, and it is really accurate.
I did have a regular mouse in my pc too so that other people could use my pc without complaining, but donated it to one of the new people at work. But happy, nice mouse makes the day better.
