I know that work ain't free but I'm not really up to buying NWN for a 3rd time. I have a boxed edition somewhere, I bought Diamond from GoG already and now another version...

Quoting: PatolaThis is cancel culture. Condemn first, ruin the dude's life first, ruin all business opportunities and create a stigma that will follow him all his life. Then maybe in the future if he'll be judged innocent no news will be told, because it is not interesting. That's why there is such a thing as due legal process. Even a person suspect of the worst crimes against mankind is still only a suspect: they cannot be punished until they are properly judged.

I guess the question is, how would you suggest this situation be handled differently? I know the U.S. is generally litigious but you don't have to sue every time you are wronged to somehow prove you were wronged.

Those who left felt strongly enough about it to leave in the midst of a pandemic and a 10% unemployment rate in the U.S. That says a lot to me.

Reviews on Steam aren't great. Went from Mixed right after release to Mostly Negative now. Too bad, I was really looking forward to this, but maybe I'll save my tenner.

Quoting: runtimeerrorI can't play it because the loading screen won't go away for me.

See if you have any mods installed. I forgot to rename the Mods directory my first run and has similar problems.

I played for an hour using Vulkan and it looked and performed fine for me on nVidia 440.82.

Are the sports cars an unintended side effect of the fix?

Steampunk base-builder Volcanoids adds online co-op

Maybe I'll give this game another spin. I played a bit of it earlier in the early access but found the crafting to be overly complex, to the point that after after the intro I couldn't remember how to craft much of anything. I came to this shortly after Subnautica which, IMHO, has a much smoother crafting and build system.

May the Fourth be with you - a look over what Star Wars games are playable on Linux

Quoting: DuncLego Star Wars: The Complete Saga works, apparently (I started this comment thinking, “I'm sure it must, since Lego Batman does”, then realised I could go and check on the Wine AppDB and ProtonDB. D'oh!). Definitely my favourite Star Wars game. Although, to be fair, I've never played KoTR and the sit-down version of the arcade game runs it a very close second.

I played it through a couple of months ago and didn't have any issues. I was never able to finish on my console because one of the kids would walk by and say "ooh, can I play?"...

I wasn't aiming for 100% completion though so I presume there could be issues I never ran into.

Played great with my Steam Controller.

Half-Life remake 'Black Mesa' will finally hit 1.0 on March 5

So far it's been brilliant! I'm maybe 1/3 through the game, I really want to see the Xen levels.

The only bug I've run into is a green dot that moved around the screen with me. A reload fixed it.
