Yeah I mention that a few times in my post. I have been trying to figure out why it runs on one but not the other. Where are the differences?
It depends what you are after.
Even though Google has a long history of killing their products I doubt they'd do it to Google Drive anytime soon. You could upload it there and make it publicly available. Proton Drive is newer and preferred by a lot of people for numerous reasons. It has a 5GB limit. You could probably use that.
I feel like the key is having at least one other place where it is in the event one service dies.
That said there are paid services out there that would likely keep your files indefinitely and are unlikely to shutdown anytime soon.
There's also other non canon and cancelled Fallout projects like Fallout Extreme and Fallout Tactics 2. They are neat for fan project world building.
For anyone interested in Van Buren there's a huge rabbit hole you can go down. The demo is available, there's several fan projects made to recreate elements of it (more than the one the article mentions), and Retcon Raider has some pretty good videos covering the design documents.
Glad I'm not alone on this. If I do find a solution I'll make sure to tag you in it.
It would be nice if troubleshooting this was more standardized. Most people just seem to jump to a new firmware or give up all together.
I was referring to drives like the Seagate 16TB HDD Exos X16. That said there are MDD drives that are apparently cheaper but I haven't heard of them before.
Kind of reminds me of how I played The Long Dark. I turned all of hazards to minimal and treated it like a walking simulator/exploration game
Maybe Paralives. I feel like it's further out from completion than Tiny Life though and is going to require more time to become a polished product.
I mean you aren't too far off. Honestly I wouldn't mind it. I would rather have a feature rich simpler looking game than something that's fancy and shallow.
I'd be more than impressed by something just basically recreates the original Sims experience.
That's a shame. I do feel like Life By You is the Sims-style game I've heard the least about though
That's kind of like Tiny Life. It is similar to the Sims but with retro graphics. Lots of people bought it as soon as it hit early access when a lot of core things were missing.
I wonder how this will work with local accounts
