I'll be honest, the Ally as a complete product is not appealing to me whatsoever. Yes, it's much faster and better on paper, but it's not better in reality. Admittedly Bazzite makes it a lot better, but it still has way too many drawbacks, compared to Deck. Even more so, it can be said about whatever MSI made

Any time a shell alias would be useful, i have to setup an equivalent of a makefile anyway. My current setup has no aliases active, for the same reasons as you

The real comedy is that they thought they'd get hired EVEN IF Elmo hired Americans. Vast majority of the magats barely even have a GED, let alone higher education

The mental gymnastics they had to fucking do there. Absolutely insane

They lost it last time, and they will lose it again

I'm currently sitting at 306 total Epic titles, out of which I've paid for a grand total of 1. Even that was a gigantic mistake.

I'll continue collecting these, just out of spite to ye old Tim Sweeney, and his bullshit attitude towards the community, purely because he has to pay out of pocket for every license we claim

There's a reason why artists have to sell 50$ t-shirts at shows. Back in the days, the label would leech you dry, and now it's Spotify, on top of your label

Just got a copy a couple weeks ago from GOG. Excellent little game

Heroic is great. Especially with the upcoming umu integration, it’s as seamless as it gets. Plus if you install anything from there, you also get a choice to add it to your steam library for easy access

Turns out free speech costs 40% more now

There are several contributors here.

Halfway through the lifecycle of Destiny 2 so far, Bungie realized that they have an insane amount of technological debt, and started cutting content out of the game, because it was unsustainable otherwise. The original promise was to rotate the cut content back in, but it was essentially just a lie.

One other outstanding issue is how bland, underdeveloped, and uninspired things are. Every update is "two tokens, and a blue". Every new event is either standing on a plate, or throwing a core. Core game systems don't work. The entire new season is fundamentally broken, and took away thing people still liked, just to return a ton of things people despised.

There is a lot more to it, but the core of the issue can be narrowed down to the business leadership being completely out of touch with reality, and bleeding resources

It’ll continue becoming worse too.

Most of the people I know are fed up with the issues. When frontiers comes around, I will not be buying it, at any price.

Bungie have shown that they are unable to improve things long-term. It’s always a bungie (sorry) cord jump, except with every bounce they sink deeper instead
