Burnout 3 absolutely. Paradise was a great game but it's format shift to open world effectively killed the series. Also made races really repetitive since they always went to the same places and you didn't have an incentive to explore the rest of the map, which was full of really cool stuff like the quarry and train lines...

Anyway Burnout 3 is just the perfection of the classic formula. Shoutouts to Revenge for the traffic check mechanic and the cool new car designs.

Same for me. There are some interests I have (mostly niche games) that just don't have the population to have any sort of traction here. I don't comment or vote there anymore, and I'm only still logged in on my main PCs because I didn't bother logging out. Deleted all my old comments and posts.

Growing up in a 3rd world country. When my father gave me a PS2 it was hacked to play pirated games. We also burned CDs on our PC before that.

Bought it on sale earlier this year alongside Palworld and Helldivers 2. You might notice why I still haven't started it.

I had a sudden urge to look into TERA Online private servers, downloaded 100GB of custom game clients... And that somehow resulted in me getting back into playing Grim Dawn. This time I want to play it enough to really learn it and actually finish the game.

No no no no stop talking about it, quick before the Nintendo lawyers show up!!

The golden days of Ultimate-Guitar uaer submitted tabs and pirated Guitar Pro 5 (which my guitar teacher gave to me on a burned CD) Good times.

Speaking of the state of piracy, how is the state of piracy on Linux? I usually only do that stuff on Windows, I've never tried installing Repacks and such on my Linux machines.

Yeah I tried actually joining a Foundry game because my friends wanted to use it instead of Roll20 for our next game. We only really played two sessions on it amd it was an absolute nightnare, so many technical problems that it completely soured the experience. The first session had a TWO HOUR delay because the thing wasn't working and had to install a bunch of addons, and then I had to install a different browser because it didn't want to work with what I had at the moment. Pissed me off, ngl.

Can we go back to when every technology was just weaponized instead? No? This is somehow worse.

Linux Mint. That's always the answer. It's lightweight, it's simple, it's easy, it does what you need. Even gaming. SomeOrdinaryGamers did a vidso on YT about installing it, it's pretty easy!

Oh good I had just checked them this week and aaw that they were coming back soon.
