Much needed as any emulators for older consoles run flawlessly but, once you get into ~6th generation console territory, your PC needs to be really beefy to have a chance at emulating with minimal stutter. Considering the age of GC/Wii games at this point, it is kind of discouraging to see so much modern hardware still struggling. Thanks for reminding me to donate to the Dolphin project.

Quoting: Hamish

Quoting: TcheyI don't know much of it, but i prefer to use Python over GDScript, as it's a "real" language.

I know what you mean, but I can't help but imagine all of the older programmers out there spitting out their drinks at the sight of anyone calling Python a "real" language when it uses an interpreter. ;)

Everything is relative I guess.

I think he means that python is "real" in that it is not specifically made for & only used in Godot. Adapting to a new scripting language isn't hard but it is still a pain an inconvenience.

Liam, you have been gathering this info long enough to have some meaningful trend data by now. Has anybody put it to use yet?

It looks like there is actually a studio behind 0AD development which would explain the quality that is normally absent from open source games.

Quoting: Mountain ManSounds like the perfect game for trolls and griefers. No thanks.

And while the graphics are nice, I think you overrate them quite a bit just judging by the screenshots.

Private servers when possible. Otherwise I would never play such games.

Ballistic has been crash-prone on me since their Vulkan update. Any mention of stability fixes?

Quoting: HoriThat's not a solution. Devs shouldn't HAVE to sell their games on every single store out there in order to combat piracy...

You didn't get the point. It's not about "combating piracy", it's about reaching more people who are actually interested in their games.

Me being one of them, there are a lot of games that I haven't bought yet because they are only available through Steam. These "pirates" are doing a service .. or at the very least, a protest.

Quoting: marcusYou do know that you can disable these, right?

Steam -> Settings -> Interface -> "Notify me about [...]"

Heh thanks. Though this still feels a lot like "tweaking privacy settings in windows"... that is, sure you've changed some settings, but you're still using windows.
