- Comment on Postal 2 Redux is bringing back the controversial FPS with a full remaster 4 hours ago:
Has it really been 20 years? Damn, I’m not ashamed to admit I don’t think I ever finished the game in that time.
Each playthrough ended in fucking around with gasoline, pissing out some innocent bystanders that happened to stray too close and taking out the rest with cat-silenced guns. Bonus points if the cat gave out and was launched straight into somebody’s face, vomit all around. Good memories playing this with my younger brother. 😁

But is it really Window’s fault when a software vendor decides not to support a newer Windows version, or a manager thinks cutting costs by not renewing a support contract is a great idea? I’ve seen plenty of software fail to compile on Linux because of, for example, slightly newer (or older) glibc versions being present. It’s not as if using Linux means software will run magically run on every version out there.

Seeing how they screwed over Mick Gordon, the composer for the previous two installments, I’ll vote with my wallet and skip this one. My backlog is big enough as it is anyway.
- Comment on Modders and phyiscs to Morrowind with Lua 4 weeks ago:
Impressive that it was implemented with just Lua and, from what I could see, without completely destroying the framerate.

Yeah, it wasn’t perfect, but at least it had its darker edges. Feel like a slaver? Sure, no problem, you can enslave random wastelanders and sell them from r profit. Screw over BoS? Broken Steel let you do that. The Pitt gave an antagonist with a motive which turned out to be a bit more nuanced than it initially seemed. You could roleplay a fat-shaming, racist PoS if you wanted to, instead of presenting only safe options.

Meanwhile a game like Fallout 3 had its fair share of flaws, but gave you plenty of opportunity to decide if you wanted to be the good guy or not. It also wasn’t afraid of locking players out of quests if they behaved like an asshole. I liked that, why would somebody try to work with you after you just gave them the proverbial finger?
Far better than ‘oh golly, you just told me that I’m not a nice person. Well, that’s not very neighbourly of you, but I’ll pay you my life-long savings if you hop over the next hub and return my package that I conveniently know is collection dust over there, but can’t be bothered to collect myself’.
- Comment on What are some good examples of "Where the fuck do you go" kind of games? 5 weeks ago:
Morrowind.
Can you find this person whom wandered off into the ashlands? They went east-ish.
I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit in the Construction Kit so find out where in Vivec’s name I had to go this time. Usually it turned out I just barely missed the person or location I had to go before starting an hourlong search.
But despite that still a game I deeply love.

From what I read that actually wasn’t true, at least not for the ‘you wouldn’t steal a car’ (or more officially: ‘Piracy. It’s a crime.’) clip.

Relax in my ass.
I’m fully aware of the irony here, considering what the song is about.

If only he skipped Daylight.

Thanks, I hadn’t come across the term, TIL.

Vibe… what now? Is that like coding in all caps when you’re pissed off or in a bastardised flavour of “CaMel CaSe” for those moments you want some spice things up with some sarcasm?

Probably iron deficiency, major blood loss after being stabbed in the kidneys by a spear will do that to you.
