I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you.

One Take Frakes returns, you love to see it

Nobody running a FOSS third party launcher is an average end user. Also, people routinely add flags to typical games even on Windows (e.g. -skiplauncher)... It's really not that big a deal.

For me this game is about getting murdered by invincible tortoises. Great roguelike.

From ProtonDB it seems it plays well, but like most ARPGs it has tiny text. The game fully supports controllers though, so I wouldn't expect too much trouble.

That's a hell of a changelog. Grim Dawn is low key one of the best ARPGs of the last decade. Not as cluttered as PoE, not as arcadey as D3.

Dunno about you guys but I enjoyed the running game this season. Wanna see more runners try to beat a throw from a catcher with an arm.

Came here for the Discworld reference, was not disappointed.

He's gonna be 40, hasn't been good in a couple of years, already a strong HoF case. I don't think he plays a game for anyone but the Reds at this point.

Really? I use Arch native Steam and Proton no problem. You either use steam-runtime (uses built in Ubuntu runtime) or steam-native (expects Arch packages) but there is a meta package for pulling the runtime deps. Both have worked for me.

That said, Flatpak has come in clutch for me as well on the Steam Deck, and for things like Prism Launcher (modded Minecraft launcher) where you want to juggle multiple Java versions without needing to run archlinux-java between switching packs.

The Hayes code sucked, but the way directors needed to be creative to get around it was great. Modern directors could learn a lot about making romantic relationships smolder and using innuendo instead of adding cheap sex.

No, it didn't - I was exaggerating a bit. In the end it was a good plot point, I just find it really unlikely the alien scan would choose her unless he was majorly hung up.

It's always hilarious to me that Minuet was used as Will's great love in Future Imperfect. I get it's just a convenient plot device but damn Riker, you spent like a couple hours with a simulation and somehow it registers higher than Troi??

Mad God was incredible. I was blown away the first time I watched it.

First Contact is legit excellent. So are cats named Tuvok.

Seriously, they'll have to suck for a while before I can see them as anything but cheaters. This recent string of successes is all tainted.

Bugs and dialogue options that sound innocent but actually initiated romance (and should now be better marked). I was very confused when Wyll and Gale were so hot to trot when I spent all my time pining after Karlach. I was just trying to be friendly, guys.

Stargate is... its own thing, but if you like it then Stargate Atlantis is good.

Personally, I never felt like any of it was ever as good as even mediocre Trek, and it definitely has this military fetishism / combat focus that I didn't care for as much, but there are some pretty good and fun episodes as well and there's a ton of Trek/90s scifi alums you'll recognize (including Connor Trinneer playing a big bad that is definitely not Trip Tucker).

Rangers/Astros, Dodgers/Braves - which I consider the worst of all outcomes based on the teams that made it to the postseason.

It's hard for me to imagine Robin Williams' take on that character. I know he was a great actor and wouldn't necessarily be playing it as a comedian, but his energy is usually so manic compared to Frewer who did a great job being reserved and subtly manipulative.
