Shame about HDR and eye tracking. This would have been a very compelling proposition with these features. I'll stick with the Index until the next thing comes along then.

It was setup as a desktop PC for my kid, (official dock, 1080p display, kb+m) for the last year and a half. Bit of an experiment on my part here, because I was curious to know if it was really viable.

The short answer is: yeah, kinda, but with big caveats.

The long answer is:

  • It's alright to watch youtube, browse the web and such.
  • It's perfectly fine for creative tools (GIMP, OpenShot, Libreoffice, etc).
  • It's unsuited for games kids actually want to play (no Fortnite, no more Roblox as of this year, no Valorant, etc).
  • It's surprisingly unreliable. We have had frequent issues (once every two weeks or so), with peripherals suddenly stopping to work for no apparent reason, or the system being slowed waaaay down. Turning it off and on again worked most of the time, but that is not something I expected from a Linux-based machine.

Wonderful game, excellent port, no account or DRM or anticheat requirements... And yet it has abysmal sales on PC, go figure.

It was fairly obvious, but at least now it's spelled out. I for one can wait for the best version to release.

This is actually more to my taste than the crossword, thanks !

Hopefully this is more fleshed out than the first game's basic horde mode.

Fait amusant: Red Fromage a cofondé et dirigé la chaîne de télévision Nolife (2007-2018).

Got a couple of years of Gamepass ultimate through the gold to ultimate conversion trick, for my own usage on PC because it was a damn good deal. I figured I might as well get a Series X so that my kids can enjoy its benefits too. It's my first Xbox as I play mostly on PC and also on whatever Nintendo is putting out for their exclusives.

We have hundred of individual repos and use git flow: short lived feature branches but also long lived develop, master and support branches (for LTS releases).

I will admit that Outward is something of an acquired taste. It's not a looker for sure, and starts a bit harsh, difficulty-wise. However it has surprising depth and a true sense of discovery. It is very rewarding once you really get into it.

Plus it really shines in co-op play. It is the closest thing I know of, that can be compared to "Skyrim, but co-op".

I stand by my recommendation as it is very much a "B game" and pretty unique.

  • Control: TPS, open-ish world, present day setting, solo only
  • Deep Rock Galactic: FPS, mission-centric, sci-fi setting, solo & co-op
