Valve, for the love of all the gods, let me wishlist the Controller now. I can live with not buying it now, but I want to wishlist it right now.

I like Fanatical's build your own bundle system, if there were something like that for GOG, it would be very interesting... were it not for the fact I already own pretty much everything I may like on GOG.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger. Why are the Digimon Story games so good? There's no need for them to be so good but they are. Also a bunch of WRC 9 because rally would be a fantastic sport were it not for the environmental damage it causes. And, lastly, some Neverwinter Nights 2 with Kaedrin's newly updated PrC pack. I'm not very interested in the remake because the original is fantastic and there's a bunch of content which may not work so well with the remake.

Ehvis, that's just how procedural generation works. I suppose there could be value in a Terraforged-style world creation menu which allows you to see in what kind of biome you spawn with what kind of terrain around you; but I have, at several points, created a new world in Minecraft only to be dumped in the middle of a massive ocean where it took me over a full Minecraft day to find land (I may have just randomly chosen the wrong way to go, but point still stands). I have also spawned in stone (and there are others who had that experience. I believe one of Kikoskia's Hardcore Minecraft series had him spawn in stone so that video was made an outtake), on islands without any trees, and, if I remember correctly, in a surface lava lake.

May I ask, does anyone around here play this game?

I've tried to get into Techage a couple of times, but the dearth of quality-of-life mods (could use a good waila, for example) still means I gravitate back to Minecraft 1.12 + GregTech Skybound.

I wonder why AAA companies stopped having demos like most indies.

Well, you could always buy a copy, play it for a bit, and get a refund. That being said, I expect the reason is something like 'demos don't provide enough of a boost in sales to be worth the cost'.

The Crew, hm? Now why does that name sound so familiar...?

Valve's compatibility notice mentions how it always need an internet connection.

Oh, [https://www.stopkillinggames.com/](right).

It's funny, I bounced back and forth a lot between Pillars of Eternity (PoE) and Pathfinder Kingmaker (PK) until PK got turn-based and it became my go-to. With PoE getting turn-based combat as well, combined with the fact I've been hankering for some RPG goodness lately, I think I may spend some time with it in the near future (although I've been wanting to do a solo run and spirits are kinda painful).

TheGamer recently covered [External Link] GOG's preservation efforts. In my opinion that's far more valuable than having a GNU/Linux client. Seriously, GOL doesn't have a client and yet people here are able to open a browser to comment on the article; they should be able to open a browser and download their games from GOG. In fact GOG is better than Steam at this considering you can't download your games off the Steam website.

Fedora can allow or disallow whatever they want. Personally I'd sooner make a list of which models are OK to use (open code, open weights, ethically sourced training material) and which models aren't, but I suppose that's a rather tall task. I'd take a contribution assisted by StarCoder2 or Granite over a ChatGPT-assisted one any day of the week.
