Long ago, I solved all of the ways in which PHP made me sad…
…by abandoning it.
Nowadays we have better languages that can do the job at least as well.

Games@lemmy.world•Civilization 7 Outlines Crucial 1.1.1 Update as It Struggles to Compete on Steam Against Civ 6 and Even the 15-Year-Old Civ 5English
1·10 months agoWhat makes you think that? It’s possible that they did it in-house, of course, but there’s no precedent for it. No previous Civ had a linux version done in-house.

3·10 months agoI don’t think so. There’s no mention of it on their site.

Somebody please wake me up when these atrocities are gone. (And thanks, Steam, for making them easy to discover.)

1·10 months agoAre you including Brave New World in that comparison? I’ve never played Civ 5 without it.

7·10 months agoI just referred them to 5 because it was almost as good
Why do you consider Civ 6 better than 5?
Edit for anyone else wanting to answer: Please specify whether you’re including Brave New World (or Gods and Kings) in your comparison, since those expansions significantly improved upon the original Civ 5 release.

Games@lemmy.world•Skyblivion, the fan remake of Oblivion in Skyrim's engine, nears completionEnglish
12·11 months agoI hope they manage to get it complete, and good. Giving Oblivion another try (this time exploring the rest of the world instead of focusing on the boring main quest) has been on my list for a while, and improved graphics would be welcome.
That font, though… not a good choice for quickly delivering information. Mods to the rescue?

Games@lemmy.world•Day 206 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post ScreenshotsEnglish
3·11 months agoI must say I e never played Skyrim, and I didn’t know how beautiful it could be.
Modern texture packs, replacement models, and lighting mods make it even more so.
On top of that, Skyrim’s soundtrack is outstanding, and conspires with the scenery to make it a game world not easily forgotten. I’m sure I’ll be going back.

Games@lemmy.world•Sid Meier's Civilization VII | Review ThreadEnglish
17·11 months agoCiv V had mediocre-to-bad gameplay on release, but was transformed into something good by the Brave New World DLC. I have read that Civ VI was similarly improved (although perhaps with a bit less success) by way of DLC.
Judging by the initial reviews of this one, it looks like a pattern is developing. I guess I’ll once again wait a few years until the “fix” DLC has been out for a while, and buy the combo pack on sale.
Unless they use Denuvo or some other anti-customer nonsense that I won’t support.

Games@lemmy.world•Kingdom Come: Deliverance II | Review ThreadEnglish
6·11 months agoThe question I’ve had since this sequel was announced: Does it use the same approach to combat skill progression as the original, where players are robbed of agency instead of encouraged to learn effective use of available tools & moves?
Eike Cramer from IGN Deutschland seems to have my answer:
The game design is annoying with forced stealth on top of a frustrating save system. That’s especially true for some of the longer story missions. On top of this, the combat mechanics are extremely inaccessible and, with their mercilessness, put far too many obstacles in the way of the players, especially at the beginning. Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is nevertheless an utterly unique, ambitious and, in large parts, very good adventure. But it’s also a video game that misses important points a little too often in the gameplay details and does not respect the player’s time in certain places.
Thank you Eike, and thank you OP for posting those quotes.





















I noticed a change in your titles a few days ago. What happened to “until l forget to post Screenshots”? I don’t think you forgot, did you?
