Heh, probably for the better 🤣

Say… how far on the dark side of the moon am I living if I never heard about this streamer before? xD

Quite an impressive list (together with the other posts). And here I thought I was a space nutter (thanks Beyond The Frontier!).

Missing the slug throwers Diaspora: Shattered Armistice and House of the Dying Sun though. The former is an Open Freespace mod in the BSG verse with a great campaign, the latter a rather short but still very nicely done pew pew that shines especially on sound effects (and I guess VR but I didn’t try that). Both do TrackIR though (and I even hacked together an OpenTrack provider for the native Linux version of FSO).

dunno, it’s for the flowers 🤷

This. They are also known as “arcade buttons”. Everything you want to really smash :D

No idea about $$$ and if they even ship to your location but I got my hands on a Backforce One Plus for 500€ and that thing is day and night compared to my last. Arm rests are a little bit wobbly but the rest… dead gods I hope it lasts for the rest of my life.

That’s from someone with a lot of back pain for… reasons.

Stadia

Haha, this also came to my mind :D

At least Steam lets you still download it when you purchased it before. I checked today just to make sure it really does still download. Granted, this is as long as Valve may exist but I don’t think there is anything DRM related here that would stop anyone from making a copy of the downloaded game 🤔 May try that later.

Mebbe I should have phrased it more as “underrated in the beginning when it went on sale and was considered a sales fail” 🤔

Well, I can confirm that it can still be downloaded. It’s notable that this is one of the few that even got a native Linux PC version as well and yes I agree on the narrative that this game is very very underrated. Not your average military shooter.

The idea of random bloggers having any impact in 2024 made me laugh. Thanks for that :D
