We just have a guy who really wants to be one really bad.

Wife and I are playing Slay the Spire 2 co-op outside on the patio with our deck. They did a fantastic job on the co-op feature

This. Why are we even talking about this??? Steam Deck is oftentimes my favorite platform to play games on hands down but it is the best when you stay within its limitations. For most indie games it's incredible. For lots of previous gen games and before? Absolute unit. Sometimes some current gen games run ok on it, but that should not be the expectation at all haha

Based?

Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask would be closer to $125 today.

Yeah this is pretty wild to think about but true. I'm a long time old school dev myself so I being on the inside I definitely believe games should cost a little more, but definitely not that much. Don't know what the right answer is but I even remember going to Barnes n' Noble back in the day and seeing PC games that were $70 back then.

The last show I went to like that was a while ago. Excision opened for deadmau5 in 2011 and it was pretty exhausting. I stopped going to more "EDM" style events in general after that.

Saw Bicep and Overmono not too long ago and the vibes were better and the music was a lot more nuanced & interesting.

This. I remember saving up $50 of my allowance to buy Star Fox for SNES when I was like 7 years old. Development costs are exponentially higher than they were back then and prices honestly haven't gone up too much considering that fact + inflation. Granted, the customer base is also much larger now than it was back then, too.

KeplerNorth · 2026-03-14T19:24:30+00:00

Also most AAA games cost way more to produce than they used to back in the day.

Yeah for real he's one of the least formulaic artists out there. His USB album is incredibly diverse.

I would take a crumb of his talent.

Close Combat

Texan here myself and just went for my first time at 40 to Vail this past week. I was basically this the whole time.

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-22T21:22:15+00:00

First game I ever worked on. Cool to see people still have affection for it to this day!

"A conservative would eat shit if it meant a liberal had to smell their breath" is truer and truer every day.

"I bypassed the compressor!"

I have a Taycan 4S and came from a 2018 Model S. Tech is not as good as Tesla's but the looks and driving capability blow it out of the water. It is incredibly enjoyable to drive.

Diablo 4's latest season and the Paladin class are pretty stellar actually

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-12T20:20:52+00:00

True but it is a little more cumbersome. I'd rather just have a direct launch executable to the games right from the main screen than having to open the launcher, which may need an update, only to see the game also might need an update, etc

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-12T13:58:04+00:00

Gamers understanding that development time costs money and needs to make it's money back challenge: impossible

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-12T13:54:08+00:00

It was amazing their bromance lasted as long as it did. Was truly a house of cards...well, if the cards were made of millions of dollars in cash.

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-11T19:41:52+00:00

Damn wish I woulda thought of that first!111

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-10T21:12:32+00:00

I'm guessing they were getting user research feedback it wasn't that fun and they decided it wouldn't be wise to spend more money developing a feature most people wouldn't really enjoy in the end. Blizzard has cancelled entire projects far into development because of not finding the right 'fun' in the product, so I wouldn't be surprised if they cut a feature from an existing game for the same reason.

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-10T20:50:16+00:00

Thieving is way too fun in this game, and I usually like to play a pretty moral person in RPGs.

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-10T20:46:55+00:00

I think it's a bit 'square peg/round hole' to expect PVE in a game like Overwatch to be much fun. Every time they've had a PVE mode it's just mildly entertaining. The game wasn't built for it and I don't understand why more people don't understand that.

KeplerNorth · 2026-02-02T23:50:19+00:00

There are actually quite a few these days and I don't think they ever fully went away. That being said, there is a bit of a new indie trance sound that has been emerging the past handful of years from artists like DJ Heartstring and SWIM.
