savedbythezsh,

That’s how I feel about RuneScape! I don’t find it a particularly fun game, but the music is so great and iconic and fits the game so well, I hear it and want to play.

savedbythezsh,

I disagree that procedural generation makes games more boring and repetitive. I think it depends on the game and how the procedural generation is implemented. Look at Noita for example - uses lots of procedural generation, mixed with some handcrafted elements, and it’s really fun! Terraria, another similar formula.

Not my cup of tea, but a lot of people love No Man’s Sky for that reason - it’s fun to explore the crazy combinations.

The original Elite was procedurally generated IIRC, and from what I understand it was super fun (before my time though).

I’ve never played any others but SR4 is great, super ridiculous

savedbythezsh,

I didn’t even know this happened lol

savedbythezsh,

I assume they’re talking about player names, not usernames - steam usernames are unique, but steam player names can be whatever you want and are often duplicates.

savedbythezsh,

What’s stopping you from deleting the game, redownloading it, and setting a new account name? Etc

savedbythezsh,

But a unique identifier in game doesn’t actually enforce bans, because what’s stopping someone from creating a new one? VS if you create a PSN account, you need some sort of verification (e.g. email address).

They could’ve done something similar with a non PSN login, though people would’ve probably still complained. And for them, it’s not 3rd party because it’s published by Sony IIRC, so it’s actually an in house system.

I also don’t own the game, but I just wanted to point out the reason in their argument isn’t entirely invalid.

savedbythezsh,

I love Saints Row IV. Such a silly game; great way to just fuck around and blow off some steam.

savedbythezsh,

What do people have against the Mach kernel?

savedbythezsh,

Favorite terminal? iTerm2 on mac, hands-down. Wish they would port it to Linux.

On Linux though, I usually end up using guake, as I like having easy drop-down global access to my terminal.

This made me go down a rabbit hole of server names and I now have a super long list of names from mostly Greek mythology that I’m going to use next time I have a chance

savedbythezsh,

Do you mount the lightboxes when you bring it with you? Mine has been languishing in a corner for a year because I have high ceilings in my current apartment and don’t feel like going through the trouble to mount them

savedbythezsh,

Yeah but it’s awful, and can only install UWP apps which are just plain bad
