I am mostly attracted by their art direction in sci-fi and lovecraftian titles.

Having names such as Beksinski and Lem in their culture I feel plays a huge role.

Also, look at Polish movie posters. They had real pop avant-garde as late as the 1980s.

Cloud saves are experimental on Heroic but in my experience they mostly work.

Achievements are something I never gave a shit about, but I think they should be working with the same upload.

As a EU citizen, I am quite happy to listen to Georgian and Armenian singers.

Genocidal theocracies could be a good conservative ban.

I use Heroic Games Launcher and have no reason to complain.

Last year I played 56 Polish games on Steam.

This year I switched to Linux and to playing on GoG (a Polish company) exclusively.

Now this acquisition, still by a Pole, happens and it only sounds good to me.

One more round of Zubrowka for everyone!

I loved the game.

I understand the use that was made did not in the least affect the final product.

I don't think they should have a disclaimer on Steam.

I think they screwed up big time if the indie game awards rules could have been interpreted as requiring no use of AI at any stage in production.

Also, I dont really understand the point of saying it afterwards and I fear that may in itself mean that they are promoting the use of AI in game dev.

What I think is very good is that people are (over?)reacting like this: I would like to have devs perceiving the use of AI as fucking poison.

The real issue is not whether we are going to be force-fed this features or not, but the fact that a foundation with limited resources is going to spend any sizable amount of them developing a solution its users are not interested in.

Waiting for Ladybird at this point.

I play ONLY non-Steam since August and had no problems by using Heroic Launcher.

Wow, that's dark! Not at all the same in Italy.

And thanks for the links in French! I am studying it and I just finished Clair Obscur in French, so I need more input.

Yes, it is obviously racism. But I also think that racism is endemic in simple societies.

I am watching Pluribus and I can recognize in that situation exactly the kind of feeling I hate when walking around Copenhagen as someone who organizes weekly events and participates in his industry's community events: the continuous way-higher-than-zero chance to meet and be recognized, as it happens in a small town.

Commenting this feeling on a day trip to Aarhus (even smaller than CPH and therefore even worse for me), I was answered by the Dane who accompanied me: "yes, but that is good, to have people checking on each other, so that bad behaviors are discouraged".

Et voilà, le facho est né.

The system as you describe it sounds a lot like the Italian one. That said, I just started studying French at the local Institut Francais and I must say that in general French people seem to take A LOT of things more seriously than the Italians do, for no good reason in my first instance opinion.

Can you expand on what you mean about the schooling?

Yesterday I played the demo of the new game Dispatch and it is all beautifully written, but at some point, while presenting the team in-game, there was a casual funny line, pronounced by a voice off-screen, so without graphical support and I just burst out laughing (I was alone at home, so not pressed by social influence of any kind).

When I stopped, I realized how uncommon this has become lately. As a kid, I found LucasArts games extremely funny and I laughed more than occasionally, but this aspect of video game entertainment has been dying out.

When was the last time you actually laughed out loud while playing a game for something that was actually designed as funny (no Fortnite or CoD shenanigans stories please)?
