Something else to note, is that the game does have an AI disclosure on the Steam page:

AI-assisted tools were used to upscale and enhance some in-game textures, to help add visual detail to the original artwork. All final assets were artist-reviewed and then integrated by the development team

Despite my immense dislike of LLMs, I have to admit that this usecase does not bother me.

This is actually quite exciting! The linked blog post is also worth the read for Mint fans.

Not much benefit to me. My Nvidia chipset is stuck on the 580 series. Ah well, I knew it would happen eventually...

No offense to the parents on this forum (who are likely the exception), but from my experience, most children are better at navigating parental control features than their parents. So, of course, the kids will figure out how to circumvent them too.

But, then, as we've already established, it's not really about the kids after all ...

Quoting: Doktor-MandrakeHopefully enough people will buy Capcom titles on GOG to try and show those suits at Capcom that they don't need all this drm nonsense

Well, for my part, I rarely buy Capcom games but, if I do, I will only buy them on GOG.

That being said, the only Capcom game that I have is the first Dragon's Dogma. Have yet to play through it, though...

How disappointing. No Linux version on GOG.

Never could get the Windows-based demo to work in Linux. I had really wanted to try this one out but I'm not going to buy it sight unseen. Besides, will Steam let you install it on desktop Linux?

This looks like it could be fun, especially if it sticks to real species instead of made-up ones.

Building a Retro Linux Gaming Computer Part 51: It’s Not Easy Being Green

Ironically, before I discovered that Linux was viable, I had always used ATI GPUs in my gaming rigs. I suspect that a big part of my choice was that ATI was Canadian. Nvidia was the brand hardcore gamers used. That wasn't me.

When I moved to buying used laptops, I had also discovered the wonderful world of Linux. It was much more common to find used laptops from the twenty-teens with Nvidia Optimus GPUs than with AMD. I would have loved to have a laptop with an AMD GPU but I couldn't find anything comparable to the Nvidia options. So, I adapted and now I am an Nvidia user.

Quoting: Purple Library Guynone of the politicians care if it works or ever will work.

Absolutely. Politicians only care that they appear to be doing something about a perceived problem. All that matters is that they stay in office and continue to collect from the gravy train.
