I can’t believe I bought a windows license in July, back when I built my new PC - was planning to use Windows for games exclusively and Linux for everything else.
Haven’t booted into Windows since at least November, it’s a great feeling. Every game I play (including new releases) runs fine on Linux.
What a time to be alive!
(note: the only game I can’t play is Valorant, but that’s the same on Windows, too, as it requires secure boot)
You don’t have to be “pretty sure”, you can just read their law enforcement policies here.
They’re not, nor have they ever been, a group of folk trying to hide from governments/LE: they’re a legal company headquartered in the UK, and are bound by its laws.
Having said that, they’re also historically against the UK Government’s attempts at instilling things like encryption backdoors.
If you’re still paranoid, host your own server; you can still use Element (the client hosted at Element.io) to access it.
I highly recommend trying to get the good/true ending: bring each boss to the point of being able to kill them, then spare them until their health regenerates (don’t use the finisher), then fight them again until they’re in the same position - the second time around you’ll get an additional button prompt, beyond just “finish them”, to “spare them”.
Do it for each boss and you’ll unlock the true ending. Probably one of the best moments I’ve ever had in a video game.
If you’ve finished the game with age 20 it shouldn’t be much harder!
Sifu is Absolver if all the disparate combat trees and styles were boiled down into one.
It’s a simplification and optimization of Absolver’s formula, and (in my opinion) it’s perfect.
Where Absolver was too open and didn’t have a direction for most players, Sifu does.
Where Absolver required you to grind for hours to unlock new abilities, Sifu grants them from a tree using points gained from playing the game (no need to block specific abilities, which prevents the fake fights with you just blocking and dodging, hoping to gain the right type of xp from the right mob spawn).
Absolver also has a great story (even though its telling is very subtle), and reaching that final hidden ending feels incredible.
Absolver walked so Sifu can run, and it’s so wonderful to see the fruits of Sloclap refining their already amazing formula.
Probably one of the best games I’ve ever played, absolutely worth $0.
Basically the only title I’ve replayed over and over again to get the special “good” ending.
A good bonus is that if you play, and get good at, this game - you can then move on to other, parry-based titles (like Sekiro) and they’ll feel like a walk in the park.
The game is easy to start, but besting it at all will require you to replay some levels.
Whatever it is, it must be fixed, as it has federated all the way to my little instance.
Your client might be showing you the thumbnail; the image’s resolution is fine, here.
I live in New York, so that’s probably why. Shame :( enjoy the covid protection!
What?! I went to CVS for my flu shot and had to pay $70 - the Covid booster was $120 or something like that so I ended up skipping it (I’m also uninsured).
Did I just get unlucky?
As a person who was all in on the AppImage distribution system (vs Flatpaks), I’m both sad and excited to see how well Flatpaks seem to be working out.
I guess they won that little competition in the end - which seems good, as there’s now a healthy standard we can focus on.
It’s genuinely great to now have widely accepted distribution independent packaging standards.
I’m 30 and read magazines all the time, dunno what you’re on about.
“You” was the official choice for Time’s Person of the Year in 2006. The magazine set out to recognize the millions of people who anonymously contribute user-generated content to websites such as YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Wikipedia and other wikis, and the multitudes of other websites featuring user contribution.[1][2]
You sneaky devil
It’s not an official client, and non-official clients are against the ToS.
Discord’s been nice about them so far, but at some point someone in or above that company is going to demand they start making a profit, and when that happens the amnesty custom clients are currently unofficially receiving will disappear.
Hopefully I can convince people to use Mumble with me 😂
Yay I can finally uninstall Vesktop
FYI the link you shared causes a modal to appear showing your full name and a picture of your face.
If that was intentional, carry on - but, if not, you might want to delete this post/re-upload with a sanitized link (if that’s even possible)!
Edit: The person in question maintains a politics blog and is an author, so this might be intentional. Still, I’m not certain so I won’t reprint their name.
Sweet mother of god, yes: my body is ready for another Steam controller.
Yep, the same article also says:
The large download size might be due to how Xbox releases its updates. Xbox updates are often bigger compared to those on PC and PlayStation 4/5.
So, I stand by my original point that we shouldn’t get worked up until the game actually launches; there’s a decent chance the patch will be smaller on PC.
Day one patches are pretty common, don’t see why this is a big deal.
I’m up voting you simply because I think it’s brave to say that on Lemmy 😅
