It's probably because the algorithm was tuned for a smaller community. As soon as posts got hundreds of comments it likely made things stay at the top for a very long time. Definitely something that will get tuned over time.

I think Active could use a little bit of tweaking though, it seems like some posts last too long and obscures newer posts.

Brent's desk is actually the microservice holding everything together. Don't shake the cables when you sit down or you'll risk crashing the whole website.

This sound like you don't play games very much because that's not the case, at all. Not everyone has unlimited data caps and fast internet, and those that do would still rather play games locally than suffer input lag and video artifacts. With consoles and PCs being as powerful as ever and still affordable I don't think the cloud gaming market will ever be mainstream.

I've had this on my wishlist for a while. Feels like a spiritual successor to Nuclear Throne, can't wait to actually try it out.

The game looks great but I'm worried the enemies might be too spongy. Every fight shown in many gameplay videos is just the player wailing in a big slow enemy for 2-3 minutes until they die.

Ah well it'll be a million years until it gets ported to PC anyways. Still hyped.

 

It's driving me a little insane how the transition from one screen to another fades to white. It feels like I'm getting flashbanged. Is there any way to disable this? I couldn't find much in the options.

 

Summer Games Fest will probably be the event this faux-E3 season. What are you expecting/hoping to see tomorrow?

I'm personally hoping for:

  • Another trailer for Judas

  • Elden Ring DLC teaser

  • Hollow Knight Silksong trailer

  • Hades 2 Release Date

  • Demon's Souls PC port (one can dream)

It's only a matter of time before companies make AI for pen testing and eventually trying to bypass security in malicious ways. I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet.

The original Doom for sure. I don't know if they count as mods since they're technically running on a modified version of the engine, but there is still a massive community making maps, mods, and even new game modes for it. Most recently the "MyHouse.wad" map for it has exploded in popularity. I've had so much fun over the years with doom mods, it's a treasure trove that most people have no idea exists.

There's even entire new games built on Doom. Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart (stupid name, I know) is a fantastic free open source karting game with a decent community, and it's technically just a doom mod.

If anyone here is going to play a single doom mod to see what's up, I recommend Doom: The Golden Souls Remastered. It's good fun.
