It's wild that Apple won and Google lost in such similar cases. How is iOS less monopolistic than Android?

Yes! I've got a pretty similar history with the series as you. Really enjoyed it. Loved being thrown the curve ball and seeing where it went. But, likewise, I also wondered where Lisa was. I guess maybe she wouldn't have bumped into Scott at the mall and just gone about her merry way.

Oh, that's a pretty tenuous link to this story. You made it sound like he had also been accused of something.

Got in late in last week's thread so reposting. Got Gotham Knights on sale this week. It's fine. All the technical issues seem to be gone. Enjoyable enough for $15aud. Also having a go at SYNCED, I like the aesthetic and could be a fun one for quick sessions. Doesn't run very well though, getting pretty frequent frame rate dips even on low and on low it looks pretty rough.

Got Gotham Knights on sale. After all the patches, it seems to be pretty stable and so far I'm enjoying it. It's certainly not amazing, but for $15aud it's pretty good. Also trying out SYNCED and I like the aesthetic so far, but gameplay/controls are a bit mushy. It also runs like a dog with pretty inconsistent FPS.

Same! Love the whole album this song is on. Also love the game.

I've never played any Gloomhaven (cost/size is daunting 😅) but I've just backed Buttons and Bugs as a bit of an ease in and the fact that it's solo. Do you think Jaws of the Lion would be as satisfying solo?

I've got an OXP2, which is 6800u/680m and my aim is usually ~40fps at 1920x1200. I've been playing Ratchet and Clank on it, and get that with upscaling, full power (28w), low (not very low) graphics and battery would last 2 hours. That's obviously brand new. Before that I played Deathloop on medium, no upscaling at 24w and I got just over 2hrs. Fans run pretty consistently, but aren't loud enough to bother me.

Yes! I've got the OXP2 and it's great, but I dread the thought of having to send it back for repairs. Hopefully my next one will be a big brand that I can just return to store if anything goes wrong.

You get used to it though. You can also set your launcher of choice to run on startup or use something like playnite and use which ever store is cheapest for any given game.

Interesting. Similar to the ONEXPLAYER 2 and 2 Pro, with the 8inch screen and detachable controllers. So many buttons! I wonder if the detachable controllers works as is or if you need a controller dock like the OXP2.
