Just installed this yesterday as a dual-boot. For the most part I'm enjoying it so far, had a few issues before I updated the kernel including no sound but managed to fix that.

Now the only annoyance is that I remote into a Windows 10 work Pc on a multi-nonitor setup, unfortunately Remmina just doesn't handle zoom on a single display well at all and scales every monitor, so have had to start trying to get used to a lower zoom level on my bigger monitor.

I don't think I've ever wanted to love a game more than Cyberpunk, but no matter how hard I try it just can't seem to capture my interest.

Who knows, perhaps this remake of so many core systems will keep my interest.

I found the online functionality to be really frustrating. Unless you're online it'll kick you out, you then need to wait to reconnect. Also being so used to Pokémon I found the typings to be confusing and not particularly obvious from the look of the TemTems what types they may be.

This all sounds rather negative but I do think it's quite well made overall, just not my cup of tea.

I personally love Torn and play it daily and have done for years. If you want something similar I've been trying to put my own spin on things with Cartel Empire which I've been developing for about 2 years as a side-project.

We've got a small but active community that's constantly growing and I'd love to have more people on the Discord as I try to include the community in as much if the development as I can.

Yeah I heard it was terrible as I'd read the reviews at the time. I mistakenly saw this and thought it was a new game and was sucked in by the trailer again

I've been actively developing Cartel Empire for about a year and a half now. It started off as a bit of a side project whilst I worked a boring IT job but has just kept growing which is amazing.

It's all hosted on Azure and written in JavaScript using Express for the backend and pug templates for the front-end.

I'm on mobile just now but if anybody is curious or has questions I'll be back later and am more than happy to answer anything.

One I never see mentioned anywhere is Transcendence which is a space rogue-lite game where you cross the galaxy fighting numerous different types of enemies and taking down space stations.

It's free to download on the kronosaur site or like £4 on steam

That looks awesome, looking forward to seeing the reviews eventually

 

A lot of Reddit will go dark soon in protest of API changes

 

I've been getting through more and more sci-fi books and would love recommendations on the books you've all enjoyed.

For myself I thought the Xeelee series was brilliant. Taking us from the dawn of time through to the end of the universe and around again. Fighting aliens from other dimensions and the creators of the universe themselves.

Honestly I recently purchased a new RTX 4070 TI and it's absolutely dominated everything I've chucked at it. But it was very expensive for what it was and I can completely understand why people have issues with the latest generations

I plan to next Thursday if there's still not a good one, I'm travelling and the functionalities not quite good enough on mobile

I think it's quite an important point that it only needs to happen once. I've not seen that mentioned anywhere else so thank you

[–] seikoshadow@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Ah so it is, odd choice but I can understand why they'd do that initially. Thanks Bread :)
