Serious question: If we'd forget what they've done before, is it so unreasonable to split what they've got into AAA, III and board games?

Quoting: DanGersteinI hope this helps answer some questions and build some confidence.

Absolutely!

Quoting: DanGersteinWe're supporting Linux because _we_ want to!

I guess that's the one reason to support native Linux nowadays. "It will make us rich!" is less common for sure. ;)

Good luck with your endeavour!

Quoting: M@GOidNice, whishlisted. Just hopping they can get a good game out of a unusual idea. Not all indies trying something different managed to pull it off. I hope this one does.

Yeah. When I read "... with a twist" in a game's description, I always wonder if they made an actual game off their "twist".

Quoting: GuestThis is bad news. Can likely lead to the Noveau Driver not being developed properly anymore. Perhaps its Nvidia's way of "shutting down" development on the open source driver with seeming like it is.

Why would they send lots of patches then?

I also lean to them enabling the free driver at least for good AI performance. Don't know if they care for graphics performance here in the same way though.

Quoting: tarmo888Many won't understand NFTs until Steam removes trading cards (their ToS allows them to do it).

Ok, let's play through this: Steam removes trading cards. You've got a signature somewhere in a blockchain that one of many million of those cards is yours. What now? I sure won't buy it from you, because... what would it do for me? I can't show it in my profile, I can't make a set, I cannot do anything with it! Neither can you. So... what?

You might not be able to show it on your Steam profile, but any website could read the data from blockchain and display them. That's even if Steam removed it from their API.

Yeah, but... why? I can display anything in my browser at any time. Without a block chain. And without any website either.
And I'm not buying trading cards to admire their looks to begin with.

The twist for the game is that what you don't see is actually not there. As this is quite the opposite of what you learned when you were only some months old, it did play tricks on me! Recommended!

I agree with this:

Remember, Steve was the guy who put the customer experience first. In the end, that was the reason he ended making the decision he did. He thought that the most important person in the equation was the one who shelled out good money to buy the product in the first place.

I also don't want to wear clothes that show others with large signs who made the clothes. At least not as long as nobody pays me for it. (And still not if somebody offers to.)

Quoting: SalvatosI don’t know what Sui, Web3 or Playtron are, but I like how the shoulder buttons seem to be labelled to be readable by people not using the device.

Just like the tops of seemingly all laptops in the world - to my never-ending irritation.

Ah, that one makes sense to me since you can't be looking at the top of a laptop while using it (plus there's no need to since it's just a brand logo).

I'm using a laptop for some years now (not too many though), and I still expect it to open for me when the logo is turned correctly, not when it's on it's head... :)
