Silly question : why are these games called 4x ?

Make that 99.9% for me ! Hard pass.

It's nice to see English keepers are still doing English keepers things though :D

Obviously, 200k is more than 2k, but 2k is nothing to scoff at. Not all communities are created equal, but I would think that, in most cases, you can make some decent living with a 2k viewers average.

The Romanian fans who bought a ticket for the round of 16 played in Bucharest must not have been thrilled when it ended up being France vs Switzerland... but who could have expected such a crazy match ? What an insane and unpredictable thriller !

The only game I can think of that had a difficulty slider for puzzles is Silent Hill 2. Battle difficulty and puzzle difficulty were separated. I tried to play a bit with puzzles on hard and I don't think I managed to solve a single puzzle as suddenly clues were novel length texts with...

You could do the Trondheim - Menu challenge. Comic artist J. C. Menu challenged author Lewis Trondheim to write a whole album of comic strips based on 4 panels drawn by Menu. Trondheim asked for an additional 4 and then created 100 strips packed full of hilarious, absurd and deep philosophical...

Japan has been less and less relevant when it comes to non-handheld consoles. They have between 4 and 5 times fewer PS4 compared to Europe and NA. It was 3 times fewer with the PS3 and 2 times fewer with the PS2. But they have comparable numbers when it comes to the 3DS or the Switch.

I think an early example of scenario through logs (not sure if they were audio logs) was BioForge by Origin.

Let me get this straight. Is the argument here : Twitch is for streaming video games, so women should not stream on Twitch, because it has been established that women are not gamers by the fact an all women League of Legend pro team in Russia got destroyed by other pro teams ? Because, if it is...

Just checked the stream and had no pre-roll also she put in her title "only ad free stream on Twitch" or something of that nature. Neither are conclusive (I can be lucky and she can be capping), but yeah...

The whole situation is unclear because people use "demonetize" for two different scenarios : 1) Ads are ran but the content creator does not get money for it. 2) Ads are not ran at all. I think that when a youTube video gets demonetized because of copyright infringement (like using some...

Snake Eyes, the De Palma film from 1998, was pretty damn good, wasn't it ? I only saw bits and pieces of it on TV since then, so maybe if I saw it today I would find it dated, but I remember really enjoying it back then.

It makes sense, but is also very strange. One would think that in this day and age, any color can be achieved with equal ease using synthetic pigments, but I guess it's not the case at all as there are for some colors cheap natural pigments ? In any case it's a strange throwback to ancient times...

Mad Max : Fury Road and The Martian are two solid movies that I rated 3 out of four stars. Here is a raw list of titles I rated 4 out of 4 stars between 2005 and now and I also added into the list some films that were not in there but were in my Top 20 of the 2010s as well as some films seen in...

What's the deal with the silicon chips shortage issue btw ? It's just a question of demand growth that outpaced manufacturing growth with a dash of COVID on top or is there something else at work ?

Just so we know what we are talking about : out of the 360ish streams in the just chatting category that have more than 100 viewers, there is at the moment of this post exactly 1 hot tub stream with 500ish viewers.

The lack of save is indeed very odd. Maybe it has to do with the way the world is generated ? But still, it feels like a technical hurdle that should be possible to overcome.

Is this poll supposed to settle some drunken debate ?

I have been playing through Dragon Quest XI (60ish hours in I think) and a part of it made me want to create a little youTube video. It probably does not make much sense if you never played the game and is a (minor?) spoiler if you have not.

While I don't own or every used any 8bitdo controllers, I think I should note that the praise for those is not universal. The Mexican Runner who spent last month getting all the possible endings and speedrunning records imaginable in Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection, spend a good chunk of his time...

Chessbea is an actual person that, as far as I understand, has been involved with chess for years before chess streaming has been a thing. Hansen, who met her in person, said that she basically financed Hambleton's GM title (getting the title implies full time dedication to chess plus a lot of...

I read that DMX got a heart attack a couple days ago and is now in a vegetative state. 50 years old :( Not a huge fan or anything, but it Immediatly made me think of this track, or more exactly to the music video of this track and its great ending.

Is there some PK offline, Lineage-style though ?

Very different games I think. Subnautica is an exploration/resource gathering/crafting game and Abzu is a more linear experience about the beauty of the underwater world. I have not played Subnautica, but it's supposedly very good. Abzu feels a bit like Flower or Journey, but not as great (it's...

I actually saw Trial of the Chicago 7 in theater just before they got closed again. Enjoyable movie, but nothing amazing. Sasha Baron Cohen is indeed very good in it. Some of my friends have seen Mank and Promising Young Woman and liked them, so I heard of them, but I have seen neither. Pretty...

Why would you say this and not say what game it was ? Is that some guilty pleasure you want to keep secret or something ? :D

To be fair, it's Sega that choses how to name their game on the store. The thoughts and efforts put into these store metadata are often surprisingly minimal considering how important they are. Spend 300k man hours to create a game, spend 15 minutes on its store presence...

My Switch gathered dust for a couple months or three and now that I want to play it again, my right joy-con refuses to connect via bluetooth (but still works perfectly when connected and does charge). I guess it's Nintendo's way of telling me I need to buy an actual controller for when I want to...

Was not sure in what thread to post it..... I guess here is the place where most people might enjoy this ? I have been playing games of a TurboGrafx-16 mini (well, actually on the EU version called CoreGrafx mini) and on it there is this shmup called Lords of Thunder (original jp title : Winds...
