One part I didn't like was your spouse popping up here and there....

That was probably the point. :P

The huge Journey's End update for Terraria is delayed into next year
25 Nov 2019 at 10:03 pm UTC

My friends say I don't need Terraria if I already have Starbound. Still true?

I assume you can run the world on a dedicated server just like other similar games (Starbound, Minecraft).

Quirky and engrossing space-colony sim Oxygen Not Included has a big free update out
25 Nov 2019 at 10:00 pm UTC

I picked it up last weekend and put like 8 hours into it. It seems easier than RimWorld, which is OK with me. It seems like technology sprawl and automation are bigger in this game whereas survival is bigger in RimWorld. That's just my opinion so far. In ONI, I'm at the point where I'm like, "Ahhh, I need these tasks to be more streamlined!" In RimWorld, I was like, "Ahh, I'm down to 1 colonist again!"

ONI: Gas and water management
RimWorld: Food, medicine and temperature management, and aggressor defense

Kind of a thinking-out-loud post here.

That looks pretty cool to me. Looking forward to it. I'd also like to see if any of my kids enjoy that kind of puzzling.

Hmm... interested. Sounds fascinating. Can I afford the time-sink? I feel like you would play on and on and on. :)

Epic Games acquires Quixel with its enormous library of 3D and 2D assets
13 Nov 2019 at 1:27 am UTC Likes: 2

Seems like normal business to me. They expanded their assets using income from their paying customers for said customers to use and made themselves more attractive both to existing customers and potential customers. It goes hand-in-hand with the release of the Paragon assets the other year. Their licensing model doesn't charge you any money for using their engine until you start profiting from it. Those are sweet things.

I hate a couple things they've done, but that doesn't mean they haven't made some good business decisions that were also pretty fair.

Steam for Linux can now run games in a special container
11 Nov 2019 at 11:14 pm UTC

Does this mean a Windows friend could run the Linux version of a game? Like, I could finally play some of my co-op games that don't support cross-platform play? I doubt this is the case, but one can hope.

For some reason, they are still too scared to boot into a flash drive to play the Linux version of a game. I even told them I'd buy a dedicated hard drive for them to isolate Linux stuff and they could dual boot. :'( Being the 1% sucks sometimes.
