Same here. Amazon shows a warning banner about "if you're unable to redeem today, try again later" on GOG games

Quoting: M@GOidI don't care about the MMO part. I would gladly buy a package of a offline version were access to the planes was behind a fixed fee. I just want to fly the planes without loads of obstacles put there to make me shed a couple bucks. DCS allows that, but I find their prices outrageous. I don't need to flip every single switch in the cockpit, just give me realistic physics with reasonable graphics for a reasonable price.

This is something I miss in today's flight sims. You cannot simply buy something for a reasonable price and have a good selection of planes to fly. You either have to shed a lot of money for so called "ultra detailed" models (but with lots of bugs) in DCS, or grind away on War Thunder. Even the last IL-2 game became a cash grab scheme with multiple problems.

I'm a flight simmer since the late 90's, from the Warbids days. I'm well aware flight simulators always had their problems, but today the hobby is only becoming more expensive than it ever was. Also, the small number of games out there in this genre frustrates me, because with limited options come limited efforts to make things better.

WarThunder still has single player campaigns, though I think they've stopped developing new ones due to low demand. Some campaigns are unlocked by unlocking particular ranks in nations tech trees, and others have to be purchased

Do NOT try to run WarThunder with Proton. It will most likely work for playing replays, but you will get banned by Easy AntiCheat if you try playing PvP

It looks like a Godot game, but it's not on the Godot showcase - interesting.
Count me in for the giveaway ;)

Quoting: Purple Library GuyOh dear, I'm not very good at slang. I can use it, but real words come more naturally to me . . .

You can't throw shade then

"An error occurred while launching the game: No licenses" is what I get trying to redeem it. Which seems like a historical reconstruction going by the Ars Technica article about it's launch.
Edit: Only happens from the franchise sale page, can be redeemed from individual listing

This is exciting! One gets tired of explaining that's it's not Linux that's hard, it's Gnome, so making KDE the default in more places will help. Maybe we even get KDE Red Hat by the time RHEL 10 comes around at work?
This leaves Ubuntu as the last important Gnome by default outpost... and I write this from Kubuntu ;)
