While i understand Randys statement (those amiga games here in germany were expensive as hell, games like Pirates! and Monkey Island were around 90-100DM, which today would be around 200Eurodollarpounds, and i spent all my money on those games), but - these days are over. Luckily. We now have choices, and its not wild west anymore. So Gearbox, you really should consider avoiding piles like this one. :)

These numbers always remind me that more than 19 people out of twenty still have the calm to put up with that other systems. I have to cope with this software at work, and every bit of it makes me unconfortable. I just recently bought a pre-owned steam deck for tinkering, and all the sheer amount of useful thought that is visible on almost every aspect of the UI is enough to make me happy and just use the device with a smile, despite me being myopic and a diehard mouse and keyboard guy.

Wow, we could really need something like this in service, perhaps with built-in batteries to troubleshoot headless clients. Thanks!

That is really nice to see. I am currently playing this game, and i am totally hooked. Zero issues so far and the story is great. The city itself is so dense and alive, i sometimes just take a ride on the metro and enjoy the views. It feels more "mature" and serious than the GTA series to me. To have the opportunity to mod this game expands my backlog quite a bit. Good times, at least on the gaming level. :)

Yay! This is a beast of a game with a fantastic battle system. I will take this as an invitation for a new session. :)

Ah, thank you for that comparison, Philadelphus. I never really got a really deep playthough in Dwarf Fortress, but Rimworld is one of my two all time favourites. I need to take more time for the dwarves.

Civilizations 2 was the best version of the series for me. Civ IV was nice too, but afterwards i realle could not get rid of the feeling they tried to sell me the same old fish again.
I know i am quite biased, because when Civ 2 came out, my health and time budget was far more forgiving.

This looks like an elegant game from a more... civilized age.

I really like this feature. I read the timeline and think back on the things i played then.
Valheim and Terraria dominated my playtime, but i got to play a few smaller games. I´m working hard on "no game hopping" stance for a few months. This resulted in doing my first playthrough in Terraria, which (i can see now) took almost three months and really enjoyable.
Now i restrict myself to valheim (until we beat the current last boss), Elite and some smaller games.
Thank you, Valve, for another year of uncomplicated, stress free gaming on a platform i actually enjoy.
