BAR?

I keep meaning to learn Forth since reading the Wiz Biz books ages ago

Because they’re too busy playing it? 😅

And this is the kind of things we wanted with the Stop Killing Games initiative, high respect for this dev

Not much of a secret

Been hearing rumors that the stuff didn’t just get delisted, some got removed entirely from the site, including from customer libraries that had paid for it with no refunds

And of course, there’s LGBTQ+ stuff getting flagged as porn because that’s the ultimate goal of each and every one of these attacks…

Itch.io had been very good for many, many years, and with their handling of this, in a single day they’re killing any good will they had accumulated all this time…

We definitely are, Valve has single-handedly made Linux a viable gaming platform, but in the process became indispensable. Thanks to Gabe they’ve been rather good in that respect. However, whoever replaces him might not be as good as him.

Didn’t they just elect a right-wing pro-Russia president? Or am i thinking of somewhere else? I’m sure it’s just a coincidence… /s

I might be a nerd…

Probably don’t count on it going away until the current LLM bubble pops

Oh yeah, did the same, you just couldn’t avoid it, it’s the thing you just GOTTA do…

And here you go

The whole of the True Ending of Hollow Knight, from before even reaching the final final boss

No, no, it does work, but it depends on the size of your library

Had typed a long response and it went away, let’s try again… 😅

So, been lately in a Castlevania binge (Metroidvanias only, I’ve always sucked at the platforming ones) and there’s a nice group of games there, you beat Aria, now try Dawn which happens a year later, a very rare direct sequel among these. Then there’s Harmony of Dissonance, Circle of the Moon if you’re into that one (I’m lukewarm on this one), Dawn as mentioned, Portrait of Ruin and Order of Ecclessia, and of course the grandaddy of them all, Symphony of the Night. All these are FREAKING FULL of achievements on Retroachievements, unlike the officially released versions on Steam with the Advance and Dominus collections, which only have a tiny handful for each game. Retroachievements has like 5 to 10 times the achievements for games, every achievement on the official releases is in Retroachievements, along with A LOT of ones not covered. Even tiny little missable details like this one on Symphony which I’ve always loved. It also has achievements for the nutcases like speedrunning ones or the “Defeat X with no damage and without using so and so item”.

Just make sure the emulator and retroachievements recognize it, i’ll have to redo Portrait at some point because it never recognized it as Portrait for some reason (ROM issues or something?)

And of course, once you’re done with these, there’s Bloodstained, the Castlevaina not Castlevania, quite fun and with the right vibe!

Wow, this is great! Thanks!

Tha’s been my beef with GOG for years now, their utterly stubborn stance of ignoring anything besides Windows even when it’s common sense to do so

Two words: Steam Deck.

Right the fuck now Europe needs to eliminate or at least HIGHLY reduce dependency on America in all fields

Okay, I’m going to start using “the panda colored ball” to refer to football balls just to annoy my football fan friends
