Playing Descent II online was one of the highlights of my childhood back in the early days of internet gaming. The community was excellent too, with a lot of custom maps created using the D2 Level Builder, which I got pretty good with myself haha.
3 was a well done transition into a new type of game engine. Good advancement of the story. Worth playing if you are a fan of the first 2. Felt like the developers cared for and stuck to the vision.
Basically they pulled skewed and cherry picked metrics showing extremely low Linux activity to justify locking those players out of playing their game. It’s scummy and their “trust me bro” attitude towards vanguard should be concerning more than anything.
What I took away from this article was that there’s a shit load of cheaters in LoL, 15% of ranked matches or something like that had cheaters or smurfs. 1 in 10 games in NA and 1 in 5 matches in Europe is just insane.
Chrome OS has a simplified desktop experience. I think people who don’t do technical work and that grew up with Chrome OS will continue to use Chrome OS
Yeah I kinda doubt it too. However there’s a real possibility for them to eventually replace it with Android, once they get the desktop mode finished up. Especially given how they’ve started caring about costs lately, maintaining two OSes with a lot of overlap might trigger some axing.
Chromos will definitely be big, but its limitations mean that it won’t definitely not be able to just take it over.
And given that it relies on Linux apps to run non Android or web apps, AKA desktop apps, I’m quite happy if it grows—Linux development becomes encouraged.
It is a really interesting concept that has been executed very well. It is surprising how addictive this game is once you start getting the hang of it.
