Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.
Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.
Becoming more like the competition might make sense, if you completely blind yourself to the fact that the customers you do have are the people who don’t like the competition.
Yeah, so it seems. Feel free to remove, or should I?
My script checks for duplicates, so it almost never happens. The rare time it does I tend to just let it be, as by the time I notice it, lots of people are already enjoying the post. There are always some who didn’t get to see it the first time :D
This is kind of a huge turning point.
It would mean reddit is discarding the biggest thing that makes it different from all the other algo-driven “engagement”-fueled social platforms.
Everything runs on an API, including steam.
The simple fact that Epic allows API proves that they not tracking and datamining people’s information
That’s not how anything works. Even literal spyware would have to make use of some APIs. The acronym literally just refers to a interactive protocol between software applications.
AFAIK, legendary, the python application which Heroic uses to interact with Epic services was created by reverse-engineering the Epic store API used by their launcher, not by implementing some public spec they freely provide. It’s essentially a workaround they haven’t bothered shutting down. For now Epic hasn’t blocked it, but that’s not the same as an endorsement.
Legendary may not have implemented the parts of the Epic launcher that collects user data, but that doesn’t mean Epic doesn’t do that.
I mention Linux, because that is the primary use-case for Heroic. I entirely forgot it works on Windows.
I’m under no illusions about how Steam works, but to claim EPIC of all companies is any better, is beyond rich.
GOG I can agree with, but even they have some games that don’t work quite right without galaxy. That may improve, as those APIs are being reverse-engineered, as well.
Steam maintains the right to erase a user’s game library without a refund
So does GOG and Epic. The only difference is that there’s a third-party downloader for their libraries.
All three storefronts sell at least some games with executables that function entirely on their own, no launcher necessary once the game files are acquired.
All three also sell some games that can be shut down by their respective developers or publishers, or rely on other services that may not stick around.
Yeah but his real crime was that he screwed over other rich CEOs, soooo…
Fortnite is riddled with overreaching anti-cheat. No shit it wont run on linux.
GOG doesn’t sell you anything more than a license, either. The difference is that you can download and keep the game forever.
Except you can actually do that with a lot of games on steam, too. These games don’t need steam, which means you could completely uninstall steam, and the game .exe would still work.
The slide works in all conditions afaik. It’s not gravity fed or something. It’s full of cartridges under presure from the spring, same as any other gun, and rounds are pushed into the receiver one by one. IIRC three dummy rounds are tethered to the end of the spring, which allows the spring to push the last few cartridges into the slide and out of the magazine.
For the last few rounds, there are IIRC three tethered dummy cartridges that are pushed by the spring into the slide, so that the last few rounds are properly fed and can’t rattle around.
Cartridges aren’t gravity fed through the slide or anything. They are pushed through and into the receiver by the pressure of the spring, same as any other gun.
Seriously? You want this marked NSFW?
I think I’ll just stop posting.
Also someone in the video comments mentioned, the teleporters only work after the 10 minute mark, too.
Don’t think you can voice chat with the other team.
I’ve unfortunately run into a couple complete jackasses. Usually they make an ass of themselves and the whole lobby ends up mildly amused.
The crap they spout is still offensive as hell.
Yeah so what I mean is that you’d walk around town visiting every google maps result for “divari” (finnish word for antiquariat) to see what you can find. These places don’t usually have websites.
I have no clue. In finland theres a bunch of second hand book-shops I’d recommend, but I’m completely clueless on anything outside of that.
time to go to bed
You can’t tell me what to do! I’m gonna play deadlock all night until I have to go to work, and then probably collapse there!
I can’t look at the twitter without an account, so I’m going on memory and the couple on danbooru. They’ve done a crapton of art but I don’t recall that being an overall focus.
Usually you’ll see it in several pieces when artists have a thing. With Juri I think it’s there just because she tends to be depicted with lollipops.
There’s definitely more incentive to be more defensive/aggressive early game, now.
On the side lanes you are a little less “safe” while in the middle lanes you now always have a partner, and have the shorter travel times to base.
You also don’t get the zipline boost from the start anymore. Along with the first kill soul bonus, it means getting an early kill actually comes with substantial benefits, as you get both souls and a good while to have the lane for yourself. Same with being killed, which now sets you back a little more.
All in all, games feel more “unstable” right off the bat in the sidelanes, and maybe a little more stable in the mid lanes. I like that, personally.
