Not living in Canada anymore, but when I visit in June they won’t get a cent from me.

Controllers in general are also extremely accessible, and expandable for those that might struggle using a tradtional mouse and keyboard.

Just teach them Python and the rest will work itself out.

Is there any ranking of ‘most pirated game’ tracked by leechers accross to top indexes?

I remember FIFA being the first thing everyone pirated when I lived in the dorms in University.

I would upgrade for a slightly smaller, more battery efficient Steamdeck with an OLED screen. I know that’s a lot to ask for, but definitely performance is the least of my concerns.

I would guess also a lot of XBOX players download the game on gamepass, and then never open it - since the there isn’t any achievement unlocked prior to the one you get for reaching space, I wonder if there is any other way to tell.

Does this type of mod break with updates, or could you potentially just stay on the version you downloaded and forego any updates? I don’t mod much to the point where I’ve paid for any, but curious the requisite of ongoing subscription for this type of thing.

You’ll be taxed 40% and you’ll be happy about it.

I mean, at least use someone elses children.

The downtown strip of the town I grew up in (about 2hrs from Toronto) is a ghost town. I doubt retailers want to risk starting a lease on a commercial property when in many situations, brick&mortar isn’t much of an asset.

As someone who is terrible at turn based CRPGs, I’ve found the explorer mode to be just perfect for me. I hit a skillwall imediately after fort joy in DOS2 on the easiest setting, so I was really pleasantly surprised.

Definitely seems worth it to keep one rogue in the party just for lockpicking. Seems to save a lot of time.

I would go for PC, simply for the fact that you can get a Quake 2 key for super cheap, and the upgrade is free on PC for existing owners.

Also Xenia Canary is a much better expierience than emulatoing Switch

Especially compared to DOS2, the combat is really engaging IMO.

At some level, even a “DRM Free” game like The Witcher could still be argued as having DRM since you need to authenticate your purchase with steam to download it.

If you’re willing to give up your option to refund in a 2hr gameplay window, you can get a Steam key from reputable (not greymarket) sellers for a decent discount. Here’s an example

Also in Europe (Germany) and there have been a lot of people OOO due to illness. So far my family has stayed free of it.

BG3 for me as well. I’m just a handful of hours into Act 2 after spending 20+hrs in Act 1. So far, I preferred the less dreary scenery of Act 1, but still enjoying the way the story is going. Can’t express enough how blown away I’ve been by this game so far. I haven’t been so hooked on an RPG since Witcher 3.

I’d agree - SkillUp’s channel (including FPS), and Digital Foundry’s DF Weekly covers pretty much all my gaming needs with their content.
