They are still being vague about the monetization (it does seem like it will have MTX) and I'm am completely certain that designing it with co-op in mind is going to ruin the singleplayer vibe and progression. Hopefully I'm proven wrong though

He was my favorite part of the show! If only the rest of the cast/characters were as good/interesting

It could be a "boil the frog slowly" situation

If its by the developer of NPxSB why not just update that one, or am I misunderstanding something in the title?

It's a Dell laptop with an Nvidia GPU. I tried Linux Mint but I'm having constant OS-breaking freezes after gaming for a while and it's happening on 2 different games so far (completely unresponsive, and it's with steam games so no custom tinkering in lutris/wine). Thinking I'll just try a fresh install but with PopOS when I have time.

Thanks for the summary, it all does make a bit more sense to me now but first time I had to spend half an hour just to find BG3 saves in Heroic due to the seemingly duplicates of folder structures all over the place lol

That's what I tried first but also had a lot of confusing experiences with its file hierarchy, prefixes, lutris/wine/proton and all of these. I was hoping bottles lives up to its promise of "one click installation with community install scripts" instead. This is my first real attempt at linux, I didn't even know what flatpak is until a week ago, I used the appimage for heroic which was also very confusing for a time. Starting to think I might be just too dumb/inpatient for it tbh, it's just one issue after another - even simple stuff like games ran from steam with proton have lots of issues that aren't reported on protondb.

Got any good guides for bottles? I've tried it recently and then got stuck on literally step one: installing the gog launcher just throw errors, I tried the 2nd gog installer and that one just leads to a black screen when I run it. I'm not sure what to tinker with, whether I try a different bottle or where to even start

I think the biggest issue is account management. Having all these different instances wouldn't be as bad if it were easy to switch accounts or combine their subscriptions, making it truly user-driven instead of depending on the behavior of each individual instance.

Sure, but nothing is theoretically stopping them from documenting every single data source input into the training module and then crediting it later.

For some reason they didn't want to do that of course.

I dunno if that's true but if it is, can you then explain why are nexusmods and steam hosting tons of marvel/disney content without any repercussions for example? What's the difference between that and the pokemon mod, if not the asking price?

[–] Kaldo@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (6 children)

Aren't free mods under fair use? There's plenty of copyrighted material on nexusmods and even steam workshop, always has been and I hope always will be. The only issue with palworld pokemon mod was it's monetization afaik.

I mostly follow devs/games that write insightful updates or interesting news so it's a pretty good source of info for me, but yeah occasionally there's stuff id like to easily skip or ignore without having to scroll for days.
