The big Rocket League update that kicked out loot boxes is now live

Not for credits. Every item has a rarity value ranging from Common to Black Market. Theoretically, you cash in 5 items of one rarity to get a random item of the next value.

5 Uncommon = 1 Rare, etc. But most items are marked "cannot trade in" for some annoying reason. It's frustrating to have to look at 300+ items I don't want and can't get rid of every time I open my inventory.

I'm pretty sick of having hundreds of items in my inventory and nearly all of them not allowed to be traded in. Not to mention the odd decal or two that are listed as "very rare" but for some reason can't be combined with any of the other "very rare" things to be traded in.

This sounds right up my alley. Which, going by my recent track record, means I will hate it. Lol

And a tip of the hat right back to you. I never would have discovered this game that has swallowed 223 hours* of my life if not for you and this site. Thank you.

*and counting. I'm gonna play as much as possible over the next day or two.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this one. If the fantasy world isn't an interesting place to live in, I can see my enjoyment declining quickly.

I swear, every time I try to update my drivers, Cinnamon starts crashing on start up. It's annoying.

Lovecraftian horror RPG "Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones" announced for release in September
1 Aug 2019 at 4:03 pm UTC

Well I, for one, am super stoked about this one.

Though, fair warning, it's been on my Steam wishlist since the day it became wishlist-able. Which, going by my track record, pretty much guarantees it's going to go Epic Store exclusive before launch. *grumble Metro grumble Phoenix Point grumble Sinking City grumble*

Canonical have released a statement on Ubuntu and 32bit support, will keep select packages

I have been following this story without understanding anything that is going on. I'm a part of the new breed of Linux user who has come in only now that distros are becoming incredibly easy to use. Do I need to start looking at switching away from Mint?

What are you playing this weekend and what do you think about it? It's mostly Dota Underlords for me

Finally getting around to the enhanced editions of Baldur's Gate. Finished the first one yesterday, so I'm onto the second now. The last time I played this game, I had to buy a brand new Gateway desktop to run it.

I had forgotten how much I hate Jaheira, but not how much I love Minsc.
