I'd honestly suggest using your ears and deciding if you can tell the difference. My music library is under 20GB so I do not fuss too much, but I am not truly sure I can tell the difference.

You can get extensions which make the homepage redirect to your subscriptions page. Lifesaver imo.

I've got a Switch and a Deck, and I can't fathom all these replies saying the Deck is just as good for Switch. It's not, and it's not worth playing games at 90 or 95% performance when you want 100% performance. "Playable" to "native performance" is such a big step. Plus, it costs more.

I recently redownloaded Driver Parallel Lines some 14 years after I bought it. PC is doing so much better than consoles on keeping things backwards compatible - imagine a PS5 casually letting you play PS2 or PS3 era games at no extra cost!

Subscribe to Disney Plus and also trial Anystream. So long as the service has dubs, you can pick and choose what gets embedded in your download (720p max). You will need a license for a show that long, but the trial can prove it works on a few episodes.

You can download the books you buy with credits, and also anything currently in the Plus catalogue. I've found this very helpful as they remove things from the Plus catalog with very short notice periods, so you may not get to finish books you start. (And I remember stuff like how Salman Rushdie books were removed when he was in the news from the assassination attempt. Maybe that was publishers seeing dollar signs not Amazon, idk, but it was gross. Same when Sean Lock died.)

Back in the day, if you wanted a drop shadow you added it in photoshop... And saved as jpg

Nah, I replayed it and it is still great. (And I don't replay many games!) Like rereading a good book.

It's a puzzle game of working out how to complete your to-do list, so that the next area unlocks. Beyond its meme status, I do think it's a very smartly designed puzzler, with lots of experimentation and observation.

You actually play as 17th century witch hunters, the box art is a metaphor.

A lot of people are posting games that are short and linear. But to match your energy, games that cannot be replayed unless you forget what you learn;

  • Case of the Golden Idol is a mystery/deduction game, a la Obra Dinn.

  • Toki Tori 2 is a puzzle metroidvania, where you can do your full moveset from the start - tweet and stomp. Right from the first screen, big chunks of the map can be shortcut through once you put your later learnings into practice.

Epic funded that and allowed them to take the risk. In that case they're the good guys, so I don't see the point in being a hardliner about their store. Use Playnite if you are adamant about having all your games in one launcher!
