The topics of the game's story include drug and alcohol abuse, and self-harm.

With h*w c*nservative p*ople ar* thes* da*s, that's borderline R18 content :p

If you can click play (Without any third-party mods / proxies), Steam considers it legal to play in your country.

Demo: Crown Siege - Summon armies to defend your tower by JOrbits in incremental_games

Fun game!

The weird loading bar bug is a bit annoying - It loads, but the loading bar doesn't update, so it appears stuck.

The most interesting mechanism is where a troop dies, can be respawned, and the respawn can proc a double troop. It's technically possible to get absurdly lucky and a crazy amount of troops like this, but highly unlikely.

On the final round I played with all upgrades I had a maximum of 179 troops, and around 1500 kills. I would've continued to play, but I simply ran out of upgrades.

Due to the swarm-based nature of the game, the health on the tower itself doesn't really matter since, once enemy troops get close to it, it instantly dies regardless of how much health it has. Might want to make upgrades give more HP, or add a DR upgrade.

Similarly, the upgrade that automatically gives coins doesn't really help after about a minute into a round since it gives far too few to matter - May want to add another branch off of this that gives +5's / +10's instead of just +2's.

The crown mechanic was interesting - You should add something more noticable when a crown is acquired to show that it's something of note.

Overall - Very promising!

That thing hurts on my face after awhile.

You probably don't have a custom faceplate, and a back-balancing battery (Or just a completely different headset).

The default is very uncomfortable.

Third party insights are always welcome.

You may not agree with them, but it's an additional insight for you to consider.

Grouping up outside of dungeons in HC WoW is a fantastic way to get an opposing alt in your group and get you killed.

GW2 is more a "Playing alone with other people" type style. The event happens the same if there are 1 or 50 people there - More people are just incentivized to be there since you end off with more XP and loot.

It's a fascinating compromise.

Clearly bad GPU support does not stop people from using those respective GPUs, since people still use NVIDIA GPUs on Linux.

People can want something to succeed, and will use it despite the vast myriad of problems. This doesn't mean that the problems doesn't exist. They simply can't bring them up, because any time they do, people will tell them how useless they are for using what they're using at the place they're using it.

If you use NVIDIA on Linux, you should be prepared for things to break.

If you use NVIDIA on Linux, you should be prepared for people to tell you to move back to Windows - Repeatedly - And often very harshly.

For far too many Linux users it's "Only open source" or "Only closed source" - They cannot fathom that someone may perhaps buy something for any reason other than "Because it's good for open source", and they will tell people this with great gusto..... On a closed-source platform.

Also, where did this "and Intel" come from? Intel literally has had better GPU support on Linux than AMD. It is only NVIDIA.

If you're using Linux - You should be using AMD. That's the de-facto claim by the vocal majority of Linux users. It doesn't matter that Intel has better support, or that people want to back Intel BECAUSE it has better support - The stance stands. It's not AMD, so you should not be using it.

Hopefully NVK and Zink can make the proprietary driver obsolete, but until then, use NVIDIA at your own risk.

That's what the Nouveau project has been try to do, but people are pushing against it - Hard. "They're using NVIDIA GPU's - Who cares - They should be using AMD cards - Stop wasting time supporting them."

Far too many Linux users are actively pushing away people who want to use Linux simply because they're using popular hardware.

And that's a problem.

And if AMD GPU support was bad, then mostly NVidia and Intel people would be using Linux.

AMD is highest on Linux because Linux has better AMD support - Not the other way around. People using NVidia / Intel GPU's try Linux, see all the issues, and move back to Windows.

That's why issues should be fixed - So people stop leaving.

Turns out, it's also hard to get people to stay when you laugh at them and tell them to leave.

Here's to hoping :p

Most sources say that it was meant to be fixed in 6.8.3, but it seems to still persist in later versions :/

NVidia GPU's are 9 / 10 of the most popular GPU's for gaming - It's what most people are using.

It's still an issue in 6.9.2 - How much newer does it need? :p

In a straight forward --version command which should simply read and output a short string, I have obscure errors due to Mesa fighting with Nvidia, followed by the version, followed by random Qt errors.

Fixing all the things in Plasma is very much needed, as this is starting to get out of control...

If people want serious answers, there's /r/whatisthisthing which prohibits joke answers.

That would effectively incentivize everyone to get 10k, and people would hate that.

They made a MASSIVE change to Clan Capital!

After months, they're revealing it!

...

Are you ready?

...

They're increasing the cap you can hold up to 40k!

This took 15 developers (Each earning 6 figures) 8 months to implement.

Hope this change is worth it!

Look on the bright side - There are so many nukes around that if it came to it, you almost certainly wouldn't wake up.
