A few too many superlatives in their pitches for my taste. Not a bad idea overall, though the bias in favor of Rust is strong. Did it really become the go-to (heh) memory safe programming language for performance ?

Not sure what you are referring to. The refund policy on Steam is the same for any games, early access or not. The game's version number or finished state makes no difference.

Maybe you are thinking of the pre-purchase situation, where you can refund up to 14 days after the game's release, instead of the date of purchase.

Oooh I really liked the first one. Slept on it for years then played it on Steam Deck. It was a perfect game for a portable gaming system.

J'avance tranquillement dans le roman "Le chevalier aux épines, tome 3 : Le débat des dames" de Jean-Philippe Jaworski. Très bon comme à l'accoutumée avec JPJ.

"Bomb" as in "not selling" ? That ship has sailed a long time ago, hasn't it ? They made hundreds of millions through that "crowdfunding" scheme of theirs already.

I'm on the fence about Arizona Sunshine 2. I understand it's quite short relative to its price. I might wait for a deeper discount.

That is not dead which can eternal lie.

Point-and-click movement has been a staple of "Diablo-like" action-rpgs since the 90s. However I recently found out that I enjoyed them more when playing with a controller like they were a top-down twin-stick shooter, starting with Lost Ark. I don't know about "more precise", but it feels more natural to handle the positioning with direct control instead of pointing towards the destination.

Je ne connais pas de communautés correspondant à ce que tu décris. Tu pourrais reposer ta question dans [email protected] par exemple et commencer à interagir en français et/ou anglais (le serveur francophone https://jlai.lu/ accepte les participations en anglais).

Sure he's an exec. He's also one of the devs who started Arrowhead 15 years ago to make Magicka. Given his track record, I would give his word more credence than those of the likes of Yves "quadruple-A" Guillemot or Bobby "packaged goods" Kotick. His comms when the servers were on fire felt genuine.

Aaaand off the wishlist it goes.

Here's the late TB piece on the original game: WTF Is... - Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons ?

Just in case there is any misconception: this particular post does not emanate from anyone at Roblox. This is the Vinegar team closing shop and giving context. Vinegar was an open source project which made it easy to run Roblox on Linux.

Roblox Corporation is the one telling a (likely very small) portion of their paying userbase to fuck off.
