if you disable graphics acceleration in your browser it should work. I have a browser specifically set up for stuff like this because of it.

The Beauty's habit of taking long, meandering sidequest looks at different parts of its world was pretty cool right up until they forgot to give the show an ending.

I, personally, wouldn't give up 15% for 7 years for a nebulous promise of "mentorship" and specifically nothing else, but I'm sure there are worse deals you can sign.

why am I waiting 4 years for every Uchikoshi game but there's like a trilogy of Paranormasights already

PLEASE

the combat is alright and the exploration is fun but the actual moment to moment feels horrendous, given how good plenty of games of that era are I was very surprised

do you have a recommendation of mods to make this playable like a videogame, or even at least like a modern doom clone? it felt AWFUL when I tried it a couple of weeks ago

if the gamers knew that AI was delaying HL3, maybe they'd finally rise up

sure hope this is just the public part of a 6+ figure payout

STS2 definitely in that Hades-style "so good you should wait for Early Access to end" zone

I'm sure The Gamers will demand better from the PC gaming monopoly holder.

BIT cringe that Steam have removed pre-orders for the vast majority of games but also can't keep the store up if any extremely anticipated game is coming out, and it's not like it's down for 5 minutes, I've been trying to buy STS2 for an hour.

is there a way to turn off Google's AI-powered grammar suggestions? I've gone from spending most of my life with maybe one segment I need to reconsider to it wanting to change how I write completely (presumably, to sound like an LLM)

if you got 100k concurrents on your game, it dropped to a thousand daily peak, and you then had to shut the company down instantly, the problem wasn't the marketing

it's slightly better than it was, but the most common thing I used to see was "I like to have fun" and it made me want to eat my phone

Ah, we should have acted faster and done more, of course, we should have gone directly into war as fast as possible, of course Kemi.

I know it's gonna be worse, but the next GE getting rid of ALL this lot is gonna be amazing.

I'm sure the conservative leader of the opposition will make some reasonable points about all thi-no, no the same lies is it Kemi? Of course, of course.

Sorry I'm watching Starmer's dogshit speech and he's talking about Iran targetting economic targets. THE US BOMBED A SCHOOL, STARMER, YOU USELESS CUNT. THEY KILLED 100+ KIDS. THEY KILLED THE HEAD OF STATE. TRUMP'S COCK CAN'T TASTE THAT GOOD.
