I don't think they are hitmen, wait you didn't mean it literally.
-
You sure that doesn't just mean they can kill whoever doesn't make them money?
-
But why?
-
I don't know, with how unstable YouTube has been recently, I've begun backing up some older obscure videos which I like a lot, I'm not gonna wait around for them to make up their mind for sure.
-
From the ToS: The latest news I've heard is that it's a disclaimer stating that it can disable YouTube or specific parts of the service, e.g. YouTube Music. That does seem more likely, but YouTube still being a brick wall doesn't help any of this. Also, IIRC, this has already been a thing in the EEA for a couple of months.

Wow. Holy shit. Is this for real? I was actually gonna make some edited YouTube videos again, as I slowly started to free up some space... but man. I almost don't even see the point in having a Google account, I might actually legit just delete it. What do I miss out on, the ability to comment? Subscriptions? I can track those manually anyway. I guess finding new uploads would be annoying, but YouTube is just gonna delete all the old stuff anyway, so why even bother subscribing anymore. Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens next.

I get where you are coming from, so here's a search text that helped me when I first began: how to do [insert your thing] in Ubuntu, Arch ect. Also, this webpage lists the more important debian bash commands as well as the pacman/yay https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman/Rosetta so this will definitely help a newcomer. It should also be said that you can double click on icons even icons for windows programs if you have wine installed. This all being said though, learning all this shit isn't for everyone, and maybe there should be a more watered down linux os for the average joe that is still open sourced.

My mind wandered back to this game and now I'm going to try it out. I like rally racers and I kept thinking of that screenshot, plus the reviews saying the stages were not only long, but based off real geographic surveys. I've heard a couple people say this is almost the equal of Richard Burns and Colin McRae Rally, the two big names of classic rally games.

List of Revived Online Games
sardonicWarrior replied to sardonicWarrior's topic in Gaming in general
You're right, I'll add some additional data fields. -
There doesn't seem to be a thread on Ross's playthrough of Lecarde Chronicles, so I thought I'd start one. (please move to appropriate forum if necessary) I started rewatching from the beginning since he's been doing it more regularly. It's pretty funny to see how he'll figure something out and then in a later video is asking the same question again. Understandable since some of sessions were months apart. For example he never uses magic so every session just finding the Aura button is an adventure. That should change though since he just found the healing magic. Would anyone be interested in an abridged version of the whole run when he's finished? I'm thinking of editing one together in Game Dungeon style. Say 30 minutes to an hour of his best highlights. (and maybe a blooper reel at the end) By the way just got to part 5 and am wondering how he just blindly stumbled into the Castle of Eternal Night. There was nothing there when he walked by that room before. Is something special needed to reveal it?
-
You might not like it, but this is the first time I've heard that sentiment. I have to assume you're not thinking of another game since you mentioned Frictional's Amnesia in the same sentence. In fact checking Wikipedia it looks like it was reviewed fairly well and sold more than Amnesia. (they are very different games though) I just finished SOMA the other day thanks to the free Epic promotion and it was quite good. Not perfect by any stretch. The problems it had seemed like they were a result of budget. The story is nothing special if you're already familiar with digital immortality and AI. No idea if Ross would like it. Might be too boring / tedious in parts. I'm a big fan of stealth games and still felt the hiding and waiting was pretty annoying in this one.

is there a list for games which are decoupled, and can truly be played forever? both offline and online? if any of the projects rely on someone else, in order to keep the games alive, i technically consider the games to still be dead i would say that the true requirements for a 100% revival are: - playable online - playable offline - can self host if needed - doesn't rely on any external services, forums or communities in order to run the game - is open source (extremely important for long term survival, pretty much required as hardware changes, as operating systems evolve)
-
The List This is a list I've compiled to highlight community projects that have successfully revived formerly dead online games (so no ongoing games like World of Warcraft), or at least have made enough progress to have something to show and are still in active development. It is also split into two parts: 'Online-Only Revivals' which are games that require a connection to a server to play at all, and 'Online-Service Revivals' which are games that only require a server for certain features (e.g. online multiplayer), though the list is primarily for the former. If anybody have any suggests or criticisms, or knows of additional games I should add, please share.

Reminds me of flash\unity game I played once, must have been this game's predecessor.

It was a great video, thanks for that! Well I thank my lucky stars that I've never played this as a kid, it would have really fucked me up. Now as an adult, other for the gore scenes, It's not that scary (and other than the intentional jump scares(like with the monster on the computer screen)). I can't say I share Ross's usual enthusiasm to point and click adventures with this one (which I usually do), seems like a really short game bloated into 7 discs by over complicating the scenes with the movies and cheap hard-softcore scenes (not to mention that entire first workday routine of back and forth). The whole alien world scene felt really out of place and really barren, the aliens just have the portal standing there active without any guards on it? What was the point in killing the psychiatrist and the guard? Also did I miss it or did Ross really not show us what was on the other side of that midget door behind the boxes?

Was that also back when they were a subsidiary of ASUS and were relegated to the lowest-end parts? Also, did you contact their support for that barely out of warranty failure, or did you just assume they wouldn't be decent people willing to help you out? I've had a few interactions with their support team, and no bad experiences yet... Heck, I flat out told them that I basically fried my motherboard and CPU due to accidentally setting an overclocking voltage WAY too high and letting it run like that for over a month, and they still replaced the motherboard for free. (AMD replaced the CPU with an upgraded one as well, even with the same story of essentially voiding my warranty) So far ASRock is also the only one to make Micro-ATX boards for the higher-end chipsets that aren't extortionate in pricing. (like the X570M Pro4)

I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee I as well used to think that ASRock is a great combination of low price, good peripheral functionality and feature-rich BIOS, but their motherboards fail me so reliably that it crosses any and all boundaries of statistical uncertainty. I had to deal with five (all different models), and not a single one of them worked for more than a couple years. Last two of them failed one month after the warranty ran out. I swear, there are some engineering geniuses working at ASRock's Planned Obsolescence Department.

Okay, I admit that I do agree with you here. (Also I like how this instantly reminded me of your previous pearl about post-2004 games).

Superiority complex is when someone considers himself superior. This does not apply to me in any way, shape or form. Au contraire, I consider myself a painfully plain and average person in pretty much every aspect. This is the very reason why I find all those "LInux is for geeks" bullshit ridiculous.
-
All my elder relatives use Linux only. They actually find it way more friendly than Windows, for exactly the same reason why the 13-years-old boy that I mentioned: they have a fresh pair of eyes and can judge objectively. (Before you ask: for certain reasons my grandparents got into Internet only around 2010 and they pretty much had no experience whatsoever with computers before that).
-
Some of those characters in the game reminded me of comic book characters: Jonah Jameson, ra's al ghul, Doctor Strange.

it does feel like we are at war with someone, with the planet mostly DIE YOU BIG GIANT ROCK, YAGHH
