Mostly kept away from news about BG3 story because I'm playing it and don't want to be spoiled. Had no idea that there might be "backlash" against Lae'zel. Though I'm not going to read much stock in an article that's just a bunch of tweets compiled together.

Had plenty of RPG characters not to be to my taste in other games, but my complaints usually only come in if there's too many of them within a single game. I kinda want to know there's a range of characters to explore with, shows breadth. Certainly if it were a full palette of whiny brats then I'd probably bounce off the game.

My only complaint so far (and I know there's been posts in this area) is just how fucking horny people seem to be. I'm trying to buddy up with party members and they're taking it as me coming on to them. I feel like I'm walking on egg shells when picking some responses in fear it'll get me shoved into the sex pen with them. I'm also surprised at how fast relationships develop. I'm still in act one and have had 3 or 4 people in my camp express their wishes to bed me. Dudes, we've just met and yer boi has a fucked up STD like wriggler in my eye.

As the title says, I want to use picture in picture mode but allow other windows to appear on top. I think this used to be a toggle option, but now I don't see it.

I've had a hunt in about:config, but nothing I can see will set it.

Any idea how I might try to fix this? Tried rebooting but no joy. Only affects my main character - but shows anywhere his portrait should be seen: bottom bar, combat turns, party list (see image).

Can you add a custom image?

TLDW: They're adding a rear view camera in 2024 below the rain lights so we'll get to see some action from cars looking to overtake. It was on Stroll's car during Silverstone FP1 but wasn't broadcast. It was also on the Safety Car and used for a few seconds, though that was added to the rear wing of the Safety Car so the angle was higher.

Last year, Digital Eclipse released Atari 50, a sprawling, interactive tour through Atari’s long history. I described it as “a cross between an interactive documentary and a virtual museum exhibition,” and it really set a new bar for retro game collections. Now, the studio is tackling another project: Karateka, the game Jordan Mechner made before the iconic Prince of Persia.

Called The Making of Karateka, the new project sounds much like Atari 50, only focused on a specific game. It includes “pixel-perfect versions” of the original Karateka releases and early prototypes you can actually play, along with a host of design documents and documentary-style video features. There’s even a brand-new remastered version of the action game. “What they’ve built around my 1984 kicking-punching debut is so much more than a game remaster, I’m still trying to wrap my mind around it,” Mechner wrote on his personal blog.

The studio also says that the game is just the first in a new collection it’s calling the “Gold Master Series.” Basically, the idea is to give a number of influential games the Atari 50 treatment.

“The Gold Master Series is something we’ve been planning for a long time here at Digital Eclipse – independently-produced projects that celebrate key designers, studios, and games that changed the world,” Digital Eclipse’s Chris Kohler wrote in a post announcing the series. “Our mission is to elevate these games, presenting them in their best possible light while putting them in their proper historical context, an approach we’ve dubbed the ‘interactive documentary.’”

Given how impactful Karateka was for action games, it’s a great place to start. The Making of Karateka doesn’t currently have a release date, but it’s slated to launch this year on Xbox, PlayStation, PC, and the Nintendo Switch.

It was a "trust me bro" claim that the media blindly ate up.

Albon went half a second quicker right behind him. Sure Albon was on new tyres, but Perez is in a Redbull. I don’t buy that him being out front on cold tyres being enough. He’s in a Redbull, the cost is a bit of their advantage, not a negative.

Why not neither of them?

No idea what happened to his NFT grift that banked him over $40M. But on to the next one I guess.

I'd recommend watching the video so you can get Tim's own take on this, emotions and all.

Can confirm I was looking for the right community to talk about this instance and when I saw posts about noodles I presumed this was not it (I actually didn't read the sidebar). Would be good to enforce moderation a bit more on this space. Not that I don't love noodles.

"irl loli" ??? Is that some way of downplaying CP? It's fucking CP?!?! Holyshit. I can't believe they switched the term to try and not sound so bad.

EDIT: Just read the post and they say IRL kids. Still, the terminology feels like it stems from replacing drawings with photos, like it's just another medium of expression, not an act of wicked abuse to the subject.

There's something to that. Hearing stories of subreddits reopen and ask the userbase what they want to do, well, who exactly are they asking? I'm not there, and I've seen plenty of posts from others who are also not there. Are they taking silence as votes against? I doubt it.

I think people are seeing Reddit as their only solution right now due to the lack of awareness of this place. It's been a bit sad to see all the news articles written about the event but very few plugs for alternate options to visit.

Non directly, they own a lot of companies and IP. A LOT.

Gearbox, Coffee Stain, Deep Silver, Warhorse, Aspyr, Saber, THQ Nordic, Dark Horse Comics, 3D Realms, Volition, Ghost Ship Games.

You can put them in the same sphere as Microsoft with all their owned companies as both were out scooping them up over the last few years.
