Quoting: HoutwormHey Liam, Why is your CPU underclocked? the base frequency of your CPU is 3Ghz You could easily push it to 4Ghz if you have proper cooling maybe even higher :) Even with the stock fan 3.5Ghz is a nice frequency :)

Isn't base clock more like a vague recommendation nowadays and CPUs can drop below (if there's no proper cooling, maybe)?

Quoting: NezchanAccording to Steam it took me about 3 hours, but part of that was an inability to find the entrance to at least one area.

First I wanted to write that I'm even more intimidated now, but I could solve it in three hours as well. (I didn't expect that you

Spoiler, click me

sometimes need something, like a tool, to solve some puzzles.

And, yes, I did find some places very late as well. :D

*edit*
I do recommend it to people who are into logical puzzle games.

Quoting: NanobangI'd like to go back to the press release, please. Who or what are Blue Systems and how does their advisory role help the devs "commit to the Linux distribution full time?"

Never heard of them before either, but according to Wikipedia, the company has been founded by a computer scientist with too much money. :D (His uncle is very well known in German football ("soccer"), BTW.)

Should I (liking point and click adventures in general) play "Beneath a Steel Sky"?

Quoting: ShmerlWould be nice if they also focus on KDE as the primary supported DE, and will help speeding up its development.

Okay first it was the original poster that said he wanted kde only

That's wrong. You even cited it. (Emphasis mine.)

Quoting: Whitewolfe80Why windows works for the majority is there is no choice its windows there is only feature options home prem everybody understands that now if windows started shipping windows aero windows basic windows dx12 windows dx11 then you would see message boards fill with is there just a regular windows i can download. Options are great if you know what they are if you dont its just a confusing mess.

You don't need different "flavours" or downloads. Have a single default download (maybe others are hidden somewhere, maybe not, John Win Doe won't see and won't care) and install a default DE. You don't need to download a new installation image to install anything else, you just install the right packages. The Linux user will know and can do it if she wants to, the Windows user won't and won't be irritated.

Quoting: NezchanI liked Pan-Pan, but there were some spots that weren't clear enough, both in terms of what you're supposed to do/where you're supposed to go, and how well you can see some stuff. But if you're prepared for that, it's a good game.

I feel intimidated now. According to howlongtobeat.com, it should take two, maximum three hours. I played one hour and solved half a puzzle and haven't got a clue about the others...

Quoting: commodore256You picked the wrong engine, fool!

Unity=Proprietary garbage
MIT=GPL Compatible
GPL=You can sell non-libre games as long as all of the code is libre.

License conflict. OpenMW isn't dependent on proprietary middleware. So if somebody makes a game using OpenMW with no Morrowind assets, they can sell it. Not the case with unity.

Erm... no. Either they can sue you for rebuilding their stuff (which I, unlike others here, wouldn't rule out) or they can't. Either way it's got nothing to do with the licence of the engine they're using to do so.

Quoting: BielFPsXCOM 2 it's a good example.

I hate it how every article about FIFA always shows the cool closeups, but never how the actual gameplay looks...

Quoting: GuestOh this is awesome.
I mean, not much more to say other than that. It's just awesome. Everyone try. Now.

Thanks for nudging, on first skimming, I didn't realize I can watch it just now.

(Besides the beauty: What computers nowadays can do in real time is simply amazing. I still remember how my father computed a black and white fractal over several weeks on my first computer... :D )
