you PIRATED monkey island VINYLS (/joke)

@hannesw@makertube.net I'm glad your take-away is that, "This guy might not know what he's talking about. I'm gonna go have a look at this and see for myself!" Which is exactly what I hope will happen.

I appreciate how you talk about Your opinion, rather than giving the impression everybody should feel the same. This makes your reviews more personal to me, and therefore more entertaining. If I was a game developer, I might still want to send my game. Something you dislike might trigger someone to by the game for that reason. There is also some hard, but I find sometimes fair feedback to be had. Your thoughts about convoluted speak are certainly a matter of opinion, but I feel one that might make some people reconsider.

@fedivideo@fedi.video Have you seen that videos seem to be missing altogether? I do not seem to be able to play videos before this one: https://makertube.net/w/kkh8FUzcSdNzMzC6CVoSHz I wonder if this is an issue with the instance, file formats or something else. I would be happy to offer computing power for any transcoding task if doable on a Linux machine.

@hannesw@makertube.net Yup, same here. Looks like the upload is corrupted or something? Never seen this happen before, it's just showing the thumbnail without a play button.

Should you consider Linux, AMD graphics cards work very well with just the standard open source drives (no installation needed on most distros) are very good. AMD has been rather friendly to the open source community.

@fedivideo@fedi.video and currently, at least for me, no video either.

Yup, no audio?

Yeah I'm one of those weirdos who like to rewatch old stuff. You've made a lot of good jokes and it was fun.

I was honestly never the biggest quake fan either, it's a great speedrunning game once you memorize everything but casually it's kinda a slog compared to doom and even later fps's, it's paced more similarly to the later half life or unreal but without the cool level design, items, and story to back it up. Personally even in multiplayer UT and then later TFC and UT2k4 imho were just far better games. (also that doom mod with the gore reminds me a LOT of how UT2k4's gibs system works, including the literal gore explosions if you turn gibs all the way up..)
