Has anyone seen if Zen has made a statement on AI?

I'm using Orion on my mac and iphone, and really liking it. It's made by Kagi, and uses webkit as its renderer. They do also have an AI assistant, but its totally separate and not built into the browser. I'm very much looking forward to their linux release.

This is the kind of game I really WANT to learn and enjoy, but even just looking at the screenshots I get anxiety over the eleventy billion buttons and menus and icons and etc etc ...

Thanks for the roundup ❤️

Ones I'm keeping an eye on:

  • Divinity - YESSSSSSSSS number 1 by far on this list. Hoping it's basically DOS3, but details are a little scarce right now, so who knows. I liked DOS2 a lot more than bg3, so I guess we shall see.

  • Order of the Sinking Star - loved both the prior games, Braid and Witness, so just keeping an eye on this dev.

  • Ontos

  • FOTOR - completely burned out on star wars anything, so normally I wouldn't give a shit, but KOTOR is one of my all time favs, so ....................

  • No Law - absolutely loved The Ascent, so this should hopefully be amazing!

  • Warlock

Quoting: GerarderloperSo is COSMIC desktop decently different compared to GNOME? because when I see people trying it out I just keep thinking I'm looking at GNOME.
It's super different. Old cosmic was just a heavily modified gnome, but this new cosmic is completely custom built in rust from the ground up.

Quoting: scaineI had some time off a couple of weeks ago, and pulled the trigger on Avowed. Absolutely stunning game - like a cross between Skyrim's open world and interesting characters, and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic's visceral combat. The dodge, block, attack almost feels souls-like at times, and some of the fights are just absolutely immense. Incredibly fun game.

Otherwise, just Path of Exile 2 as usual, but the Abyssal League finished a few days ago, and the new Last Druid expansion launches tonight, with a new league kicking off. Can't wait. PoE2 is incredible, I love it.
yay! Glad you're enjoying Avowed. It's sooooooo good. And they just did an enormous update right? I absolutely ADORE the world of Eora and they did a great job with all the lore in this one as well.

Far Lone Sails is such a great game. Highly recommended at that price!

Absolutely love what System76 is doing with Cosmic! I tried it out a few months ago with my Cachy install, and it definately wasn't ready, still had some major bugs. But I know they've been hard at work with everything so I'm VERY tempted to give it another go. I love that we have a nice modern new DE!

Quoting: awesomeXpossumPentiment, Pathfinder:Kingmaker and also replaying the first Pillars of Eternity again in the newly added turn-based mode
are you having any issues with the turn based mode? It's still in beta, so just wondering if I should keep waiting ...
