Is this the shortest teaser in the history of teasers?

Quoting: peta77I just wish they'd give a little more attention to ground graphics. For airliners, etc. it's very good, but for low altitude flight (ultra light planes, helicopters, VFR, etc.) it doesn't look too good..... improved, but could be better...

That is an issue, especially with msfs now. It's a bit unfair though because you ms can leverage their maps and cloud services without explicitly paying for it. Something like that would be completely unrealistic for development of just a flight simulator. The funny thing is that FSX was always applauded for having seasonal graphics while XP did not. Seems that this has now turned around. :) Anyway, msfs is never going to be an option for me, so the comparison is irrelevant. And from the foot I have in the flight simulation community, those that rate flying above fancy satellite photo scenery still prefer XP over msfs.

Quoting: brokkr

Quoting: EhvisI've been on my longest ever pause streak.

Is there an upper limit? And do you have to check in every month to opt out?

There doesn't appear to be, but you do need to opt out manually every month.

Humble Choice has been a big miss for me for a while. Between the stuff they offer, the stuff I already have and my complete lack of time to even play the games that I have and really want to finish, I've been on my longest ever pause streak.

Wishlisted it immediately when I noticed it this weekend. I wonder how well they can make the 3d aspect scale though.

Seems to be a far away thing though. Although Steam has it as "coming soon", the website says that release is at least 12 months away.

That's an uncommon amount of detail about the Linux support in those release notes. They clearly put more thought into it than is usually the case.

Not really a fan of rhythm games though. I'm just really bad at them. Which is kind of funny considering how much time I spent playing them in VR, but there's a catch. Besides the positive aspect of the physical activity, I still kind of suck at the actual "rhythm"/timing part of it. I really tend to focus on games that limit the impact of timing and allow me to compensate with technical skill. Something that doesn't really work for pancake games.

I tried Loop Hero on deck, but I couldn't get on with it. The controls were just too awkward for me.

Quoting: CorbenOh... now I have good reason to NOT finish my playthrough of The Witcher: Director's Cut, hihi.

But how can a new fancy UE5 game match up to the charm of original project? Play both! :grin:

I suppose it's time now to figure out of Pipewire can indeed do network audio with fallback. Pipewire's ability to do this hasn't been clear and I have not yet taken the time to dive into it.

Quoting: PenglingOh, right, because Steam's algorithm somehow completely fails...

Bombergrounds. "Similar to games you've played: Fishing Planet 0.8 hrs." Riiiight. :grin:

Could have used a platform filter. That would have made the list more manageable to go through. Also, seeing how many games release on a daily basis demonstrates why indies have issues getting noticed.
