The community called it Overwatch 1.5. Now they renamed the game back to Overwatch (1). You can’t make this up.

No, it’s not. Fallout 76 is a spin off in the franchise, but not a direct sequel to the main series. Just like Super Mario 64 plays in the same universe like Mario Kart 64, but it’s a different series in the same franchise and world.

Overwatch 2

I don’t think Fallout76 can be counted as a sequel. It’s a standalone game in a franchise, like Super Mario 64 is a different game then Mario Kart 64.

Would be nice if you were more specific.

I don’t get what exactly made you think this would be something like a “shitpost”? Do you mean the post title or about the article from the projects website? Its just a normal update blog post information about the changes and rational. I usually like this kind of update posts once a month or so for projects I care and want to stay informed.

What makes this Chatbot client different from just using it in the browser? My first thought was, it might get special permission to better interact with the system, like the agentic tools do. I assume it can better integrate into system with the taskbar maybe. Or maybe this is more efficient than just running the webbrowser. Or it might have special commandline arguments with special options?

Oh… wait its just an entire browser running a single tab. Alright then. Why does this need to be an app on its own? To me this is as useless as a native browser based Discord app… Just bookmark it in your browser and open it there. You can even customize it even more with browser addons.

Thanks for the quick introduction. After the tutorial I’ll try Mineclone first then, and then the other games to see how they differ. Overall Luanti and its community content is impressive.

At the moment I can’t seem to find a way to rebind ESC key to open the main Luanti menu. Or bind any other key to open the main menu too.

I just downloaded the Flatpak and its surprisingly easy. I thought there would be some initial configuration or so, don’t know why I was expecting that to be honest. And there are lot of “games” available; I only expected a Test Game to be available. Why are these downloadable games so small actually? I’ve downloaded a tutorial, which in my opinion should be starred too, as it was on page two or so.

So many questions. Sorry, it’s just surprising to me. The only time I ever played Minecraft (maybe 30 minutes or an hour) was on an emulator for Playstation 3, just to test if the emulator works. That’s the extend of my knowledge so far. :D To be fair, I’m also not the target group for this game. The only reason I try it out is to get an understanding how these games work and to have some basic knowledge of one of the most important and played games of all time.

You assume that GTA Online will be part of the 100 Dollar purchase. Isn’t it going to be a separate game now?

The digital code in a box is just too good of a deal to let it slip through. I think anyone pre-ordered the game should at least get free access to the commercial trailer at the same time those paying for on Netflix. This would elevate the digital code in a box deal for 100 Dollar to an i-n-c-r-e-d-i-b-l-e value.

Do I actually need an account to play Luanti? It’s just self hosting without internet requirement, right? I’m not interested into multiplayer, so is it even worth then?

How on earth did you miss that? It was in the news for years, the biggest buyout with 69 BILLION dollars. It’s actually Activision-Blizzard-King, King being the company responsible for mobile game hits like Candy Crush (that’s why its in your start menu).

I welcome this. It is kind of similar to playing Xbox games through Steam, as it uses WINE and Proton in the background in addition to the open source reverse engineered authentication and so on. Not my preferred way, but for lot of XBOX or Windows users this could be the last wall of defense to overcome.

But unless Microsoft officially supports this or accepts this, I would be cautious for the time being.

Ah! I’ve seen a few times some artifacts with my RX 7600 on KDE too, but not on max/min, but randomly. I couldn’t reproduce it, so it is really hard to talk about such subject. As it just recently started (I’m on 7.1.6), I guess this is the same issue. Wondered if this is an issue with KDE or Krohnkite extension or my GPU dying.

So glad it’s “just” a bug in the Kernel. This is just a visual issue right? It doesn’t hurt I hope.

Roblox is available on phone too. So going to libraries for that sounds a bit inconvenient, especially if the libraries are limiting the usage.

How many people remember…

“The Problem with Linus Tech Tips: Accuracy, Ethics, & Responsibility” (44:14mins) by Gamers Nexus on August 14, 2023: YouTube or Invidious or Internet Archive

This video is not monetized. This video covers our serious concerns regarding the data accuracy of Linus Media Group, including Linus Tech Tips, ShortCircuit, and TechQuickie, particularly as it relates to rushing content out the door to favor – by staff’s own admission – quantity over quality. As the company continues to expand into its LTT Labs direction, the importance of accurate data increases; however, even as ‘only’ entertainment, there are still certain responsibilities to the consumer and the manufacturers to report fairly (and to have defined corrections processes in place). We tried to approach this as objectively as possible and hope that viewers are able to listen to the evidence we present, particularly as it relates to significant and frequent data errors that now present in nearly every technical review video.
