It feels like it's only been a year or so since Poly Bridge 2 released.

Quoting: MexicanDandyJust bought yesterday and played for a bit because I was very tired of being in front a monitor because I work at home office.

So far, I love the aesthetic and soundtrack of the game, the combat feels kinda simple buts that's not bad, is very likely to Pokemon but with two characters at the same time.

I can't wait for the weekend so I can finally play it as it deserves
I have played for a few hours now and the combat feels more complex than Pokemon. That might just be not knowing the types and such, but well.
One thing I really like is stat changes slowly wearing off.

Spoiler, click me
The fast travel is trains! Hype!

I saw their blog pist on this yesterday (my time) and wanted to try it, but didn't geg around to it.

I hope it's good and gets added to plasma6 by default, as considered in the blog post.

Paradox announce Cities: Skylines 2, plus a The Sims-like game and more

When playing the frist one I always think that they should just redo everything.
The DLCs are just squeezing what is left to be squuezed out of the old core.

Let's hope that this new one is more flexible and the busses don't stop in the middle of the stop.

Also still hoping for multiplayer, but that seems far-fetched.

Quoting: denyasisI'm kinda curious if the use case for systems like this? Without a dedicated GPU, gaming seems like a stretch? But its way overkill for streaming? Non/lite-gaming desktop use maybe?

Quoting: gaboverstaOnce again it's time for my favourite game: Configuring systems I won't buy.
Also great to see continued preinstall efforts.
So what would you use it for? I'm genuinely curious ( I appear to be lacking in the creativity department today)
I wouldn't use it, that's why I wouldn't buy it. I just enjoy clicking on the high end options and seeing the price go up.
That said, when I was an office clerk this would have been awesome to have.

Looks like I will soon have to decide whether I actually want to collect every handheld gaming thingy that comes with linux out of the box…

I probably won't the steam deck is great. If they want to win me over they will have to make some pretty compelling arguments.

MineClone2 version 0.81.0 (free Minecraft-like) for Minetest out now

Quoting: LeflWhat differentiates this game from minecraft?

Or rather, why should I play this when the real Minecraft exists?
Not getting banned from playing multiplayer because someone "hacked" mojangs chat reporting system sounds like a great feature to me.

There also seems to be a significant focus on open source with minetest in general.
