Can't wait for this new version :) I used many distros, but in the end found myself always coming back to Mint. It just works!

Quoting: MisterPaytwickBeing the work of Master Boot Record [External Link], it's far more on point with several aspects (digital versus physical support theme for example is brushed on, with the Magnetic Police), and overall a love letter to the cyberpunk genre without just going chrome: graffiti became virtual, a band actually playing on set is something, a secret message on a floppy and so on.
I immidiately wanted to write about MBR :D The game is not in my taste, but their music is... you know how good it is :) I rarely play point and click adventure games, but I love cyberpunk setting, and MBR, so... maybe it will be a good opportunity to shake hands with this genre? Last time I played point and click was... Syberia? I think so :P

Quoting: ChronariusWould still be more realistic and a lot better without this "temporal storms"! Still don't get it why the game needs this.
You can turn them off when creating new world! Both temporal storms and temporal stablity :dizzy: This game is one of the most customizable games ever.

Absolutely love this game. In my opinion, it's one of the best and most creative games of all time. Seriously.

Quoting: beguiThe game is so great.. the music is so bad..
I think the music is intentionally bad, to resemble that of Dragon Ball, etc. You know - just to bring back memories of our childhood cartoons/anime :D It's freakin AWESOME to be honest :D

Quoting: hardpenguinThere was cult classic TV series in Poland about Janosik which makes him a very recognisable character here.
I'm surprised I can see so many people from my country on this portal :D I always thought that Linux is total (like total total) niche in Poland. I guess I was wrong ;)

The 'Homesteading' update for survival game Vintage Story is shaping up to be huge

Quoting: xaviCan anyone compare a bit?
Well, Vintage Story and Valheim are kinda different, but in some ways kinda similar.

Valheim is more an arcade type of survival game, and mechanics are simple, building etc is easy, crafting too, getting resources too (crafting in Valheim is something similar what you can see in World of Warcraft). Combat is fun, and a little bit like in Dark Souls, but easier and not so frustrating. But still it's lovely game with a lot of atmosphere. Very relaxing and definitely worth it.

Vintage Story in the other hand is similar, but If I think of atmosphere and chillout. Setting is different however. Valheim is based on Nordic mythology. Vintage Story is more horror-like, situated in some deviation of world based on the mythology created by H.P. Lovecraft. In the mechanics it's much more complicated and challenging. It involves a lot of complicated crafting, with getting resources by crafting - for example, you have to melt an copper, and create copper bar from it. You have to prepare furnace, and almost manually do the rest. You can dig really deep in VS, but to find for example iron, you have to think, find traces of it on the surface first, then dig. Combat is similar to Minecraft, but a little bit more dynamic and skill based. Also, very relaxing and definitely worth it :D

Tough choice.
