On the bright side, you’ve now got squeaky clean disk space to fill with new projects!

946,944 currently, it’s almost there!

I’ll never hate a language which has a separate Wikipedia page about its profanity. Such a colourful language!

I hear you, I dropped the Devil’s language in highschool as soon as I was able to do so. I still get PTSD just thinking about the listening exercises on tape cassettes, where usually someone told her entire life story in about a single minute. Unbelievable how fast people can talk in French.

Okay, just for shits 'n giggles we’ll throw in a War 11. Just mind that it can’t be fought with perfectly good legacy weapons, those will need to be replaced.

Has it really been 20 years? Damn, I’m not ashamed to admit I don’t think I ever finished the game in that time.

Each playthrough ended in fucking around with gasoline, pissing out some innocent bystanders that happened to stray too close and taking out the rest with cat-silenced guns. Bonus points if the cat gave out and was launched straight into somebody’s face, vomit all around. Good memories playing this with my younger brother. 😁

Imagine you’re a GitHub employee tasked with leaving a nice message for the 1 billionth repo. Seeing that counter tick towards that joyful moment, anticipation builds.

What would it be? The next Linux display manager? Something as impactful as Docker or Kubernetes? The early beginnings of a radical new OS?

Nope, it turns out to be shit. 💩

But is it really Window’s fault when a software vendor decides not to support a newer Windows version, or a manager thinks cutting costs by not renewing a support contract is a great idea? I’ve seen plenty of software fail to compile on Linux because of, for example, slightly newer (or older) glibc versions being present. It’s not as if using Linux means software will magically run on every version out there.

Seeing how they screwed over Mick Gordon, the composer for the previous two installments, I’ll vote with my wallet and skip this one. My backlog is big enough as it is anyway.

Impressive that it was implemented with just Lua and, from what I could see, without completely destroying the framerate.

Yeah, FO3 wasn’t perfect, but at least it had its darker edges. Feel like a slaver? Sure, no problem, you can enslave random wastelanders and sell them for profit. Screw over BoS? Broken Steel let you do that, RIP Citadel. The Pitt gave an antagonist with a motive which turned out to be a bit more nuanced than it initially seemed. You could roleplay a fat-shaming, racist PoS if you wanted to, instead of presenting only safe options.

Meanwhile a Bethesda game like Fallout 3 had its fair share of flaws, but gave you plenty of opportunity to decide if you wanted to be the good guy or not. Blow up a town? Kill off all residents of Tenpenny Tower, or whack all the ghouls that want to take up residence? Why not all of them? You decide!

It also wasn’t afraid of locking players out of quests if they behaved like an asshole. I liked that, why would somebody try to work with you after you just gave them the proverbial finger?

Far better than ‘oh golly, you just told me that I’m not a nice person. Well, that’s not very neighbourly of you, but I’ll pay you my life-long savings if you hop over to the next hub and return my package that I conveniently know is collecting dust over there, but can’t be bothered to fetch myself’.

Onscreen instructions unclear, pressed Shift+6+X. Still stuck in Nano.

Morrowind.

Can you find this person whom wandered off into the ashlands? They went east-ish.

I’ve spent more time than I’d like to admit in the Construction Kit to find out where in Vivec’s name I had to go this time. Usually it turned out I just barely missed the person or location I had to go before starting an hourlong search.

But despite that still a game I deeply love.

I’m so glad crap like that isn’t valid in the EU.

Peak gaming performance you say? No sir, not without a CRT monitor filling that table and an IBM Model M to match. This is a rookie set-up.

With all that brown it’s as if they accidentally took the Fallout 3 colour palette instead of Oblivion’s. Doing a replay now and (Pip) boy, I forgot how bland the Capital Wasteland looks before you get used to it.

Relax in my ass.

I’m fully aware of the irony here, considering what the song is about.

If only he skipped Daylight.

Why is he figuring things out himself? Surely that’s the AI’s job, right? Right?
