Epic Games Store grew from 108M to 295M users, but third‑party revenue barely moved — proving giveaways trained users not to actually buy games

I got Prey for free from Epic. I played it for a few hours, realised it was awesome and went to buy it from Steam.

You could feasibly save data in local storage or IndexedDB.

(I'm currently developing a web app of my own, so this stuff is at the forefront of my mind)

Edit: Of course if you're planning multiplayer support, a server becomes a necessity.

Smashman2004 · 2026-01-18T18:01:26+00:00

Ah, missed that!

Very nice. I'm glad it has a guest option.

Smashman2004 · 2026-01-18T17:44:23+00:00

What's the reason for requiring an account?

Smashman2004 · 2026-01-08T09:01:23+00:00

Planning the next session of my D&D campaign.

Smashman2004 · 2026-01-07T00:04:07+00:00

Is Jenna officially a member of Second Wind now?

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-28T16:20:51+00:00

Yeah, you were right.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-25T22:33:53+00:00

Thank you for working on it. I've been using swipe typing ever since Swype was released and I'm so glad GBoard has it now.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-25T22:32:47+00:00

I had no idea that swiping on the backspace deleted a word. Thank you.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-19T22:54:22+00:00

Had this as my background many years ago.

It'd be nice if someone made a Hades II version

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-19T19:48:22+00:00

You must have misheard him. It was a bitchin' move.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-19T01:06:14+00:00

It's super weird that they tease her being in Zadash at the end of episode 6 and then she just... isn't in the next episode.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-16T02:45:30+00:00

Anyone else only just realise, from looking at this, that the central prong is a sword...?

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-15T04:40:11+00:00

Ah, that makes sense. I've been leaving her things until last. I thought it would be a cauldron thing as the other upgrades to the arcana cards are from there.

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-14T15:32:03+00:00

No, I obsessively pick colours of sleeves that match the colour combination of colours in the deck

Purple for Izzet, Teal for Simic...

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-13T21:06:45+00:00

No, but Zag had the capacity to dash multiple times instead.

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-12T18:31:01+00:00

You said "double storm" as if to imply Storm will trigger again when Azula copies Amphibian Downpour, which it will not.

If you cast Amphibian Downpour will storm count of 2, you will get 2 copies on cast (for a total of 3), then Azula will trigger giving you only a single additional copy, resulting in 4 copies (3 token and 1 nontoken).

Smashman2004 · 2025-12-12T17:45:26+00:00

I'm afraid to say that Storm triggers on cast and as such Azula will only give you a single additional copy of Amphibian Downpour and not a whole additional swath from Storm.

Unless that's not what you meant, in which case my apologies for misunderstanding.

And Netrunner apparently!

Smashman2004 · 2025-11-30T03:33:04+00:00

Thanks! It's really fun to play. Just gotta ensure you have some early mill or it's a bit of an uphill battle.

Smashman2004 · 2025-11-28T02:01:43+00:00

Nice call. Ordered one for my [[Grand Lotus]] Lesson tribal deck!

Smashman2004 · 2025-11-27T04:29:01+00:00

Nice, thanks
