Arguably, whether this turns out decent or atrocious may depend, in part, on whether it’s a straight adaptation of the games (removes sensory elements that games and film don’t have in common, causing serious issues); or if it’s something that would fit better in a film, albeit taking place in Hyrule.

It may also depend on whether portions of the production team actively dislike the source material (cough cough Netflix Witcher cough cough)

Yep, as a Netrunner, I basically load things I shouldn’t outright kill full of Synapse Burnout quickhacks. Dunno why a quickhack that produces that many sparks so close to the skull is non-lethal, but whatevs.

Or use quickhacks that only hit once/don’t do DOT, such as Synapse Burnout.

65-ish of the Cyberpunk 2077 hours were mine, full disclosure. Edit: or at least on Steam as a whole, any amount of which could’ve been on Deck

I’m just hoping that Netflix doesn’t get involved, or at least that Netflix doesn’t bork it like they did the live-action Witcher adaptation.

I could easily be wrong, but I remember some people involved in that series pretty much disregarding the source material entirely. Please correct me if that’s not what happened.

Didn’t think the modern-day incarnation of Atari even had interest in games anymore. I could’ve sworn an entirely unrelated company bought the name when the original Atari died out.

I initially thought the article was a latecomer report on vanilla 2.0, but then mods were mentioned, and it made more sense.

Was that autocorrect, or deliberate wordplay?

I, too, would like context.

My mistake, I may have seen a post previously that suggested something more like “Diablo 4 is now compatible with Steam Deck”, and my brain immediately saw the title of a rather controversial game and mentally blocked out the post.

I question why this news is being posted at this point, let alone repeatedly.

Yeah, as good as the sandwiches look, it seems like the most useful food is the food that provides temporary buffs, such as Barbacoa wraps (which provide damage resistance for 10 minutes), or Boom Pop! Dynamite (reload speed and movement speed up briefly).

Basically, it feels like the best food in the game can act like a cheaper and (perhaps) non-addictive alternative to chems (although if alcohol addiction is possible in the game, I wouldn’t be shocked)

 

When I was a kid (or perhaps a teenager), I distinctly remember at one point believing the universe was around 18 billion years old, but I can’t remember where my memory would’ve gotten that estimate prior to more modern estimates.

 

For example, assuming Philip III of France had had a court jester, how would such a profession deal with the topic of Isabella of Aragon getting into a horse crash, basically miscarrying on the spot, and dying?

 

My underground base in one of my older files has a room for growing trees using bonemeal, and I just found out about this quirk, as this is my first time running the game in a couple months. This is why I have a storage hall I can dig to expand.
