Definitely. I was just being sarcastic.


Saying that to an indie studio is mean.


Future generations using Ai to automate this kind of thing will make it even worse probably.


Also lot of handheld options like Steam Deck use AMD as well. Not sure how big of a factor this is overall.


The servers are not really dead. One can not buy new games, but the Nintendo account is still active and checked for legitimacy, as you can download purchased games. And some other functionality are still working on eshop. My fear is, that a list of games and game IDs are uploaded when connecting.
I don’t understand what to manage about dotfiles. You mean backups?


Can’t wait for the masterpieces to contain security issues.


The fact that Clair Obscure Expedition 33 was well received as the best game of the year, and found out there was some use of Ai afterwards… tanked it reputation. But the results speak for themselves. This game does not look like Ai slop. This means, companies are motivated to hide this fact even more.


But that is then something else you compare to. Indie refers to be indipendent from publisher when developing the game. At some point at the end of the development, the game has to be published, but that’s not what indie means. And major first party store holder are excluded from this for obvious reasons. But if you want, then count Valve indipendent. That’s not our discussion here.


Take 2 owns Rockstar. GTA 6 is not an indie title. BG3 is developed and published by Larian Studios. BG3 is an indie title. CD Projekt is the publisher. CD Projekt Red is the developer, there is nothing strict about it, they just have similar names.
I think you confuse with developed without publisher and releasing the game to the public. It’s like saying Steam is the publisher, after the game got released on Steam.


Are you trolling? How is GTA 6 an indie title? Rockstar is under Take2 publisher. Same for Witcher 3, which is published by CD Projekt. The developers are CD Projekt Red, two different things. And Baldurs Gate 3 is an indie title.
You should randomly put popular game titles into the mix, without explaining your point. Whats your point again?


So it did not got more expensive then.


What’s the benefit, besides having older 32-bit libraries installed and be dependent on them? I mean is there any other technical benefit of 64-bit only? It could use more than 4gb of RAM, but for Steam itself this shouldn’t be needed.


Alright i didn’t know they have a publishers.
What constitutes an indie game will always be debated,
How? It’s a well defined term. If you don’t have a publisher and are independent, that’s what indie means. It has nothing to do with budget. Even an indie game can be AAA, because the term AAA refers to how expensive it was. These are two different subjects.


I don’t think E33 should have qualified as an indie game to begin with.
Besides the Ai talk, why do you think so? It is an independent game, without a publisher.


No, you ignore that both models are different classes. You compare 64gb model without SSD against 512gb SSD model. It’s like saying the 2tb model is more expensive.


$649: 512GB LED vs $549.00 512GB OLED
Well Firefox recently integrated a full webpage translation, fully done local on your system. It works pretty well in my experience.
