These are all Firefox forks. If Firefox is done, they're done.

It's incredibly fishy, but crackable.

Let's be honest here. The original series was on arcades and you had to get from point A to point B. For the current generation of gamers this is the equivalent of a mini-game you play on the loading screen of the main game. I'm not defending the GaaS shit, but what did you guys expect?

Incredibly comprehensive mod. It's actually available directly from GOG and Steam, and it automatically installs on top of the game. You'll hear people saying you should play vanilla if you're playing for the first time, but no. Play Revision, just don't enable Shift/BioMod.

Oh I wish, because it's a stupendous engine. However, I'm sure they'll keep on using their shitty Creation Engine.

Sure, they could improve on many things, but does that justify the making of a new game? They could just patch Civ VI.

[-] InterSynth@r.nf 2 points 5 months ago

Do we really need a new Civ every few years? I feel like we haven't had a real need for a completely new one since Civ V. What can they improve upon? Graphics? That's laughable for a game like this.

Quite possible, yeah haha

"Prepare to Die Edition". The non-remastered "complete" version of Dark Souls.

Tons of legacy devices. Old car infotainment systems, old "smart" TVs, old players that don't have Rockbox ports, etc.

Opus is an insanely efficient codec, but unfortunately not very compatible.

If I had infinite storage, for archival I’d preferably use FLAC at its default level 5 compression. But like you and others, I thought the file sizes were quite big for a sizeable collection. So my personal compromise was AAC at 256kbps encoded with Apple’s QAAC. It’s small in size, vastly superior to MP3, and almost as universally compatible as MP3. There’s a reason why iTunes has stuck with it for so long, it’s an incredible encoder. I would never be able to hear a difference compared to lossless, at least on my equipment. So I went with it.
