In the era of remakes and remasters, what niche game would you like to see receive the treatment?
  • I feel like I could have some fun with a remake of Descent 1 and 2.

  • Can I disable “swipe comments to upvote/downvote”?
  • Aaah thank you, I had the same problem.

  • What game do you wish you got into as a kid?
  • I remember looking at the rows of PC game boxes at the store and being very curious about Myst. But for some reason I never asked my parents for it. I guess maybe since I didn’t really have any idea what it was, it just felt like something out of reach.

    I love “artsy puzzle games” now, so I feel like that would have been a pretty cool experience for me way back then!

  • What game has the best thunderstorm?
  • +1 for sea of thieves.

  • Stack Overflow Survey: 80% of developers are unhappy
  • Yes, this! I rarely ask for permission on that sort of thing. I’ll just do it as part of my work and see if anyone calls me out on it.

  • AeroPress Premium
  • Fair point, appreciate the clarification!

  • AeroPress Premium
  • This is true. I know I’ve gone through a few gasket replacements myself. I can tell it’s starting to fail when the pressure starts to feel weirdly weak and too easy to press down on.

  • AeroPress Premium
  • I love my aeropress, but this seems highly unnecessary to me. I think it’s great that I’ve had the old one for over a decade, I can chuck it in the sink or a drawer and it’s practically indestructible.

    I can’t say I’ve ever once noticed my cup being cold after pressing so claims about heat loss feel suspect.

    I suppose if you just want the same experience but to feel fancier while doing so and you have cash to spend on it, then go right ahead.

    Heck I still chuckle when I am reminded of the aeropress XL. If folks aren’t aware the aeropress company was mostly bought out a few years back which may explain the recent burst in new fangled products.

  • "Dan Da Dan" New Key Visual, 3 New Commercials
  • I’ve been reading this like a madman for the last week. It’s nuts and I now cannot wait for the anime to drop.

  • The new Flappy Bird game has a hidden secret: crypto
  • I had a bad feeling when I saw another developer had picked it up. This sounds worse than I imagined.

  • The future of Minecraft’s development
  • Oh that’s very interesting! I will keep this in mind as something to try.

  • The future of Minecraft’s development
  • You got the answer right there, it’s cross play. When you have child in the family who wants to play Minecraft on their iPad, and a parent who would like to join in on their Mac, you just can’t do it. And that stinks.

    It also feels like relatively low-hanging fruit from a development perspective.

  • Sony announces the PS5 Pro with a larger GPU, advanced ray tracing, and AI upscaling
  • At this price I’m so glad I decided to go for a slim instead of holding out for the pro. Absolutely no way.

  • The future of Minecraft’s development
  • I still want to see bedrock on the mac. 😔

  • Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land - First Look
  • I had to laugh when I saw the way she sprints.

  • What is everyone reading (09/01/2024)
  • Couple nights ago I finished Locke and Key. Pretty solid, I’m satisfied with how it ended.

    Monstress #54 came out a few days ago and continues to be great. I wish I saw this comic getting more attention than it does cause it rules.

    My daughter and I are up to volume 4 of Witch Hat Atelier. Very cute, and I like the unique approach to magic in that world.

    Finally, I have Pluto volumes 7 and 8 that I need to crack open. Volume 6 left on a bit of a depressing note.

  • Remedy and Annapurna announce a strategic partnership agreement on Control 2 and bringing Control and Alan Wake to film and television
  • I loved Control, but I’m feeling kinda meh about a TV show. If it does happen I’ll keep an open mind and check it out.

    Absolutely looking forward to Control 2 however.

    2.0 Beta Megathread
  • Just installed and poked around a bit. So far so good! I like the new look and feel.

  • Sea of Stars – Throes of the Watchmaker DLC – Indie World Showcase 8.27.2024
  • Agreeing with all these comments. The game started off really strong in my opinion, but it falls flat very hard after a certain point. Both from a writing perspective and in the combat variety.

    The interrupts were interesting to me because I hadn’t seen a mechanic quite like that before. But I suppose it’s true that once you see an enemy charging up there is essentially just one “correct” choice to make, which limits what choices you actually have and puts you on a rail.

  • Sooooo many moonerangs. That was a big complaint of mine as well. The combat doesn’t really evolve much.
