I mean, true, but maybe the founders shouldn't take investment in the first place?

All I want to do is fly transport helicopters around in an online multiplayer scenario like I do in BF 2042 on winblows. in c/[email protected]

Check out Squad, it runs well on Linux, but the game is more of a milsim like Arma, than Battlefield.

Still lots of fun though, and helicopter pilots are always welcome if they can fly the thing well (takes some practice).

The OP has already been playing Hunt Showdown on Linux, their question is about another game called 'Ready or Not' 😁

This is how it works when your country has war on it's land, it doesn't matter what system of government you have.

I would expect any European country to react the same with war on their land.

Is Linux support still needed nowadays, or is Steam OS good enough? in c/[email protected]

In the past they had the Hitman game of the year edition which had DRM baked in, but they eventually removed it after some pressure, however there is a maintained list on their forum:

https://www.gog.com/forum/general/drm_on_gog_list_of_singleplayer_games_with_drm/page1

Most of it is for cosmetic things which you may feel is not a big deal, but if you read a little deeper you'll see there are more nefarious games on there.

Yes, I think it launched with it, or was part of an early patch

GoG isn't DRM free anymore

And a game on Steam doesn't have to have DRM if the developer doesn't integrate the DRM feature from SteamWorks API

The spring Steam sale is happening right now. What games do you want to play but won't buy despite a deep discount and why? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Depends what you mean, Steam is not DRM, most of the game is sells don't have DRM. However Steam API has a DRM feature that developers can use of they choose to.

So what do you mean?

Rubicon (2010), it's a proper spy thriller based on intelligence analysts as opposed to field agents.

Unfortunately it got canned early, but I loved the story and writing, I have a feeling the show was a little too close to home, but that's a whole other conspiracy theory...

So I figured it's about time I gave this game a shot.

I'm familiar with the series, but never really loved it, have played all previous titles but most of my time is on F3 and FNV.

I think the reason why I didn't pick this up earlier was because I didn't feel like going further into the Fallout universe, it felt like Bethesda were milking the golden cow.

Of course I'm trying it now as I picked it up cheap and the TV series has come along, of which in almost at the end of. It very much feels like the TV show is Fallout 4 on TV, but then I've never played F76.

The game is nice, very familiar to what I remember of F3 and FNV, I wonder how open it is with the perks system, or will I have to put levels into gunplay at some point?

I'm trying to stick to the main quest to start with, I've helped out the Minutemen, and then made a b-line to Diamond City before setting off to find the private detective so still pretty early on. Dogmeat is a fine companion for the road.

Any tips or suggesting for a good start, and play through?

There is a patch landing at the end of the month, so I haven't experimented with any mods just yet.

Does it matter who leads my party? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

Specifically, whose story am I playing?

I'm playing two games at the moment, a single player run through as a custom character, and a coop run-through as Wyl in the second player slot.

I've noticed that in coop I get a lot of story if I instigated chats with NPCs or scripted events even while sleeping at camps.

How will the game end in this way, will player one and player two get two endings?

In my single player playthrough, if I decided to move Gael to my first character slot and control him would I get a Gael playthrough instead of my custom character? Would that mean there's no point in starting as Gael as an origin character?

Does anyone know the difference here?

what are good spell or skill combinations you use in combat (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
 

So I'm familiar with DOS: EE and the element mechanics of combat, but I'm not sure if that applies to DnD 5e.

But last night I threw a fireball cantrip at a group of goblins standing in grease, and what do you know but the whole gang go up in flames!

Does anyone know of other great spell or skill combinations you can use, especially to deal with groups?

Also what are your go-to combat setups?

I'm currently running a Druid, Cleric, Warlock, Fighter so if you can think of combinations from those classes that would be great too.
