SDL 2.28.0 released and goes into maintenance mode, now focusing on SDL 3

Quoting: ShabbyXSDL is awesome, but it looks like it's planning to to be not-so-simple anymore.

Like, we don't need yet snother 3d graphics API. Especially not now when the serious APIs (like Vulkan) are still struggling trying to figure out how to best do things. APIs like SDL's would end up based on those 3 APIs and naturally make the same mistakes.
Why not?

QuoteI actually played a couple of games with a friend on the new map recently, and it was surprisingly a really great time. The map definitely feels a whole lot better now and the game works really great on Linux too.
Yeah playing with friends, preferably a full team of five is preferable. Unless you don't mind the toxicity...

So, same as LoL, but I never played Dota so I can't say which is worse.
I played both - LoL is much worse.

Quoting: hardpenguinI played it just recently and this game has not aged well 😅
Yeah, the same thing with my try. Controls, mechanics etc. Just terrible. Baldurs Gate 1 & 2 for example aged much better. Seriously.
My thoughts exactly... I thought that third-party campaigns will make it more bearable but nope.
