Can confirm. Game is fucking awesome.

This looks awesome. Definitely checking it out

Driller: Straight ahead it is, then.

Humble Bundle is a big contributor to my unplayed games. There’s usually only a few games in a bundle that I’m interested in at a good price, and the test I’ll eventually get to… Maybe when I retire… If I get to retire…

The weekend crew rolled in

RIP KSP2

This does not whip the llama’s ass.

P.S. Also, groceries are already expensive enough. Eating out costs even more than that.

Generals was really fun. The C&C series really started to decline once EA went balls deep on what was left of Westwood studios for the games after that.
3D is great. I just don’t trust most AAA companies to make a decent RTS these days.

To Tiberian Sun and StarCraft were my obsession for years. SC2 was pretty awesome, but I would not trust Blizzard to make another good RTS at this point.

It’s easy. You cut down the quality of your products rapidly and start being recommended against by the people that used to buy your products.

Corsair used to be good. I enjoyed their products. However, their quality has plummeted over the past few years, and their iCue software is absolutely terrible. It will routinely crash, and completely lock up my keyboard and mouse.

That’s true. A little communication during the deactivation period could have gone a long way. I’m not surprised it was overlooked, all things considered.

Speaking candidly about business negotiations can harm a good working relationship if you say the wrong thing. You also don’t want to say anything that could be perceived as badmouthing the people that hold the keys to your success. He’s likely just trying to be careful while being as transparent as possible.

It’s called “Not reading your fucking contract or doing due diligence for the people who paid for your product and then kicking the can to the people you signed a contract with.”

If people had read the bright yellow text above the buy button on the Steam store page or the EULA, the account linking announcement would not have been a surprise.

They didn’t ignore it. They shut it off after the first week because Sony’s servers were so clogged up, people weren’t able to set up their accounts. Plus, they were dealing with all the other server issues. It was only a matter of time before they were going to have to turn it back on.

Not only has the “requires linking a PlayStation Network account” advisory been on the Steam page from the start, but anyone that picked up the game at launch is already linked.

I’m not a fan of the linking; but since I don’t own a Sony console, it’s just yet another account that serves no purpose to me other than letting me play a couple of games I own on PC.

It was deactivated while they were trying to sort out the server instability issues in the beginning. They announced it would eventually return, and it’s the main reason why the friends list has been messed up.

Right above the buy button on Steam, in yellow highlighted text, it has always said

Requires 3rd-Party Account: PlayStation Network (Supports Linking to Steam Account)

It seems a lot of people did not realize that this was an initial requirement when the game first launched, but it was suspended while they figured out server and stability issues.

They hated him because he spoke the truth.

I don’t like it either, but I had to make an account on day 1. It’s also a requirement for any game hosted on Sony’s game servers.

It’s really unfortunate. Native Instruments seems to almost refuse to support Linux.
