Heavy ex-GF vibes in these notes.

This is a small thing that most likely annoys just me, but I wish they'd patch the Bethesda connection attempt in the Quake 1 port so that it happens only when you actually do something that requires that connection. I love that remaster, but I genuinely cannot stand that gnarly pop-up on startup every. Single. Time.

Colossal Order and Paradox Interactive split with Cities: Skylines going to a new developer

I don't doubt Colossal Order screwed up here, but I also have the feeling Paradox could have actually helped instead of releasing a broken, unfinished game and then letting it fester for 2 years before "parting ways" with the devs. Whether that was stepping in earlier in development to steer the project, growing the team or providing dev support, or doing whatever the issues called for when it wasn't too late.

I'm sure the new devs will look upon the code in horror and just pump out assets until there is nothing left to milk or until the game can no longer take more. Not their fault, naturally.

Oh, here's a game that actually could use some of that preserving, GOG.

What's that, best you can do is tree fiddy?

Humble Choice for November 2025 has Total War: WARHAMMER III

With the state the game is in, a year between fairly unremarkable dlc and now this... Looks like they'll be winding it down soon. Skeleton crew vibes.

Chizha Mount Ling Dock for Steam Deck looks premium and it's fully featured but pricey

How does that M.2 slot actually behave under heavier load? What happens when you try downloading a larger game (30-100GB), and how does it behave when it then needs to write a huge update? Writing anything beyond a small indie game to SSD in that JSAUX HB0604 dock was asking for trouble. Larger downloads, so what you'd presumably need this additional space for, could take several attempts. Updating these larger games was worse still - could take many tries, sometimes you'd need to reseat the damn thing to get it recognized after it'd disappear. Virtually none of the reviews mentioned any of this, it's still not fixed (this is after the firmware update, and with the new, beefier PSU), if that's even possible to fix, and the users got screwed getting a recommended, partially defective dock.

The classic Serious Sam 2 gets a big upgrade and now Steam Deck Verified

I remember the gameplay in this game feeling... seriously disorienting for some reason. SS1 both felt old-school PC, and this one was a jump into more of a console feel to me. Maybe a odd in-between at best. One day I'll go back to it, but it most likely won't be through a gamepad.

If I were Twitch I'd be getting really nervous.

GOG Preservation Program expands with Splinter Cell, Hitman and more + Autumn Sale is on

Yeah, I'm not sure why they're using... 0.74 still? Probably some agreement they made at some point that they never bothered to reconsider? Not sure about the licensing on all the forks.

Let's see how it's executed before we call this a win.
