Try Stellaris. It's similar gameplay, but it's realtime and the space battles you can get yourself into can be truly epic.

You really do, you just don't want to admit it. It's okay, you don't have to be angry at God. Just let go.

With the exception of chat, try Old School RuneScape. Good game for passive gameplay as well as more intensive/focused gameplay.

I'd say a reasonable amount of this is due to how many of them shove their own ideologies into their reporting, with not even a slight attempt to remain objective or neutral.

Not in every game. Some games make it reasonably fair, such as Elder Scrolls Online which makes it possible to obtain the lootbox items in other ways.

And this is exactly why Ubisoft is dying. Good riddance.

No, if anything, we need to boycott games with battle passes. I'm not a fan of lootboxes but I'd take them any day over a battle pass. Don't pressure me to play specific ways, don't exploit FOMO to try to get me to grind or spend money. I find that a LOT more predatory than lootboxes, at least in games where they're optional.

Ah, didn't know that it's on Steam. Well, there's that at least. Still not a fan of console exclusivity either way, though.

Both. The future isn't in consoles, it's in console-like PCs. Just wait until Valve drops the Fremont, I believe it'll change absolutely everything.

I hope they're prepared to have a fraction of the success they would have if they didn't continue the absurd concept of console exclusivity.

I'm not talking about Lemmy. I'm talking about literally every community I've looked. Aside from fanboys being fanboys, the reaction has been nothing but outrage.

Yep! When you open the Steam menu, you can access a full-featured desktop mode. It makes the device virtually limitless outside of the software issues you mentioned. And I agree entirely that it's ridiculous to see these companies ignoring Linux the way they do.

Hopefully you enjoy your second try of SteamOS!
