Diablo 4 Twitch viewership continues to drop as Diablo 3 overtakes it
  • we are going to be sold Hell. guaranteed

  • If Baldur’s Gate 3’s Lae'zel Were Male Fans ‘Would Be More Forgiving’, Dragon Age Co-Creator Says
  • my god, i had to literally plan an assault on the goblin camp, took me a few days to accomplish even hahaha. wow, took out leader with just your avatar and a friendly. teach me your ways lol

  • Blizzard notes Overwatch 2's review bombs but insists players say it's "in the best state it's ever been"
  • using a controller with BG3 actually feels really good. you can also adjust the zoom so you are more in a third person view as opposed to isometric (nearly over the shoulder camera). you can also play the game real-time with pause, which may or may not help push you along as you say you don't necessarily jive with turn-based.

    i hope these things help you get into BG3. i personally LOVE isometric view and turn-based tactics but even if these things don't appeal to you, the game itself is such a breath of fresh air that i do not see myself putting it down for a long, long time.

    have fun!!

  • Diablo 5 Won't Be as Long in Development as D4, Says Blizzard's President
  • lmao, let's fix then finish 4 first.

  • Foxconn to sell Green Bay, Eau Claire properties that once intended to bring hundreds of jobs
  • let's just hope Microsoft will actually turn around the Mount Pleasant facility.

  • Is anyone using any mods since release?
  • i think the Home key also sticks the camera to active character. There is also Auto-Rotate Camera in the Accessibility Options for when the camera is focused on active character.

  • Homeworld & Severed Steel Free on Epic Games tomorrow
  • it's not - Homeworld Cataclysm is available on GOG as Homeworld Emergence. something about Blizzard trademarking Cataclysm -

    "As for the new title, that's a precautionary move. "'Cataclysm' is now a registered trademark of Blizzard Entertainment, Inc., and the game has been renamed to avoid confusion," GOG said." - https://www.pcgamer.com/gog-brings-17-year-old-homeworld-expansion-cataclysm-back-from-the-dead/

  • a Packers community? on the fediverse? sign me tf up
  • i imagine the engagement will be much higher once the season starts. i cherish this mag for the news but its hard to talk shop when the shop is still closed XD

  • Proton Drive App?
  • hi there, wanted to loop back. the Windows app for Proton Drive has released!

  • can you sort by Newest automagically for your Homepage? or will the default always remain Hot?
  • funny you mention that, writing the script actually crossed my mind!

  • can you sort by Newest automagically for your Homepage? or will the default always remain Hot?
  • thats for the default landing page: All, Subscriptions, Favorites, and Moderated. I'm looking to extend this functionality to be able to browse by newest as opposed to hot for this setting. its only a click away but, i dont know i guess i'm lazy.

  • What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?
  • the beauty of federation, you'll find us in the weirdest places XD

    good to see you, keep on carrying on friend

  • can you sort by Newest automagically for your Homepage? or will the default always remain Hot?

    I'd just like to sort by Newest when going back to the Homepage or when opening the site... is there a script for this..? I am using kbin enhancement script, Kbin Usability Pack, and Kbin Subscriptions panel currently.

    What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?
  • wouldn't you know it, look who i found...

  • What is the biggest action that got you to where you are now?
  • i went back to school. just got my degree about 2 months ago. heading back got me the job i have now.

  • Let's say the worst case scenario happens with kbin and Meta. What are some alternate sites/instances that would be more resilient to enshitification?
  • uh well, i dont understand... you are able to self host these services. you can self host a Masto instance, a lemmy instance, and a kbin instance. you aren't tied to big tech just because a large instance has federated with big tech... so i don't see how "Mastodon has caved". i am on mstdn.social and the admin is blocking Meta from the start as Threads is not allowed to operate in the EU at the moment (exception is London, right?)

    either self host or find an instance that isn't federating with big tech. you don't have to run anywhere.

  • Anyone know of an RTS that plays well on Steam Deck?
  • mentioned in another comment, but Halo Wars is fantastic on the Deck. also, Command and Conquer Remastered plays well with some controller configuration.

  • Proton Drive App?
  • there isn't one unless you're on iOS (maybe Android, i dont know)-- i just add the shortcut to the Proton Drive site on my desktop for PC.

  • What are you reading this week? [6/25/23]
  • it got better toward the end. when the Flood finally arrive. coming off of Fall of Reach, the tone just felt different.. i get its the first game but, i don’t know it read very action movie-ish in some sections, lacking depth here and there. i’m more excited to get back to Eric Nylund’s books lol
