It may not be your cup of tea, but a lot of people (me included) really like SoT.

They either have a Star Trek license and can't say so yet, or they are going to be sued into oblivion.

Me too. I will not spend a single cent on Epic, but I'll happily buy Steam games.

I spent about the same on a couple of stash tabs during a sale. I don't regret it. The game gave me a couple of hundred hours of fun. That's more than most games

Even in the base (not director's cut) version?

Too bad about the horrible Monster Energy product placement. It totally ruined the game for me.

I've been playing V Rising PvE with a friend. Pretty fun game. Much less grind than typical survival or basebuilding games. But the bosses are quite hard to compensate.

I'm currently playing V Rising with a friend on a private server. I like survival games but I hate PvP, raiding and griefers. So far it's pretty good fun! Like a mix between a Diablo-like ARPG and something like Valheim. You don't need to grind resources so much, you collect plenty just playing. The focus is more on combat. Some bosses are pretty tough and progress is gated behind them.

Maestro, to games in Microsoft Confirms Plans To Release Xbox First Party Games “Across All Platforms”, Including PlayStation

It's been tried multiple times and it just doesn't work. Physics (the speed of light) ultimately dictates latency. Streaming only works for a rather small subset of games that doesn't rely on reaction time or latency at all. And then only works for people who play those games a lot (you're not going to sub to a streaming game service if the majority of the games you want to play don't work on it). There's a reason Google Stadia died.

Maestro, to gaming in What difficult games/game challenges did you give up on?
@Maestro@kbin.social avatar

I don't think so. I only beat 3-4 bosses or so. I think it was a dark bluish area with white spikes, some way down from the entrance.

I've just moved on to other games. I have a wife and a small kid. I can't afford to spend hours and hours stuck on a game.

Hollow Knight. I love that game but I am in my mid 40s and my reaction time isn't what it used to be. And it's not even the bosses. I just can't make it past the spike section where you have to air-dash all over the place and can't be a millimeter off or you die.

Maestro, (edited ) to technology in This app lets restaurants and coffee shops charge to use the bathroom
@Maestro@kbin.social avatar

There are plenty of public toilets that charge a small fee. Train stations and airports for example. Also at gas stations it's pretty common. But I have never seen it at a restaurant or bar. Maybe sometimes there's a sign that says it's 50 cents for non-customers or something. But never for customers.

Maestro, to gaming in Male players: Why do you play female characters?
@Maestro@kbin.social avatar

I am, but I'm a medieval reenactor. On Reddit there used to be this cool sub called armoredwomen. Any equivalent in the threadiverse?

Nah, pass. I'm soured on the game now. And there's a ton of other great games to play.
