Fantastic idle game Melvor Idle leaves Early Access this month, teams with Jagex

I tested it a few months and years ago, it was really "well made" and at the same time, kind of boring.
Nothing really "fun", just very basic stuff over stuff over stuff. Dense and full of stuff, but yeah, unfun stuff, i’d say.

I wish it was less a roguelite and more a Borderland type of game

Quoting: CyrilI wonder when the game will be finished, it's in EA for ages.
Some games are not meant to "be finished". They just grow and evolve, for as long as someone cares about them.

Not related to gaming, but at work, in a public school, they changed about 1/3 of Windows to Linux because of Win11 "killing" some of the machines.

So instead of having 1/3 less computers, they tried Linux (Mint), and they are finding they like it...

I’m biased, but the name "Minecraft" in the title makes me want NOT play that game.

How do you hide games? Asking for a friend ;-).
Really no idea, i don’t think i’ve hidden any of them.
I just repeated the info from the website.
Maybe related to "bought vs activated" on Steam ?
You will have to find other ways to hide your porn, sorry.

My story with Steam purchases starts i think in 2007 with the Orange Box.

The Orange Box is a bundle that includes five titles from Valve: Half-Life 2; Half-Life 2:Episode 1; Half-Life 2: Episode Two; Team Fortress 2, the sequel to the game that put class-based, multiplayer team warfare on the map; and Portal, the game that blends puzzles, first person action, and adventure gaming to produce an experience like no other.
Current account active since Q3 2007.
Today i have 984 games + several hidden
My account is semi private and i need to turn it public to have more details from https://steamdb.info/ [External Link]

I know i didn’t play a few of them, but not much. I did play (almost) all my games.
Didn’t say to the end... I almost never "finish" a game, even if i play hundreds of hours.
I don’t care about stories most of the time, only gameplay.

I don’t feel attracted by the game as i think it will be (colony sim like the few last ones released these months), but only because of Mechanicus team, i’ll follow it.

Happy Birthday to Linux, 30 years strong

I was alive back then, but not aware of Linux before maybe end of 90’s, and not using it until early 2000’s, but now i can’t think about "going back" to Windows (and Mac is worst for me, even more locked up and mind-sick with example a 60€ string to attach your 250€ airpods...).

Linux via dualboot for a several years, first more as a test than a real utilization, and little by little, less Win, more Linux.
My last dual boot was with Win7. Then Linux only with Ubuntu and Mint. Today is Manjaro for about 5 years, and happy to be there.

Linux for me is simply an alternative, and i believe alternatives are a must, a question of life or death, with any topic. One choice means no choice. So i’m on Linux to participate on the Life side. Also the obvious "free and open" stuff. Free i mean not the money part, the liberty/freedom one.
