Ohh, my....    yeah i am not a competitive gamer by any means, i like a story more then anything

 

if you feel you like a story - play Late Shift.

Story first followed by gameplay.  Gameplay can be great but if the story isn't there I'll lose interest.    I'll always be a old school SP gamer till I can't game no more.   This trend of making everything some psudo-mmo co-op hoo ha is all well and good but story often takes a back seat in these cases.    Plus I don't have enough free time to invest in these types of games.  So even if I wanted to I'd be left behind by the majority of the player base quick.

Finally finished Watchdogs 2. Played a little couple years ago but stopped for another game . Didn't remember much so started a new play through. 

I did the same thing. I didn't like it was much as the first. Be interested to hear what you think.

Watch dogs 1 was really bad... For me at least it was such a dissapointment

Fallen Order and I'm about done with it because I can't stand the fact that a big chunk of the game mechanic is get from A to B to C, only to have to find a way to get back to A again.

 

Sure is pretty though.

Also a crap game - gameplay is just not fun...

 

I bought greedfall and I already regret it.  Just can't get into it ... Ohh well. Guess I will try again in a while

I liked it. Story is pretty basic tho. Good game to play while waiting for others to come out. May try Legions when the price drops.  Gta style game

Yea, greedfall isn't the greatest. Just another game to play here and there until something better comes out.   I like rpg games so looking for another good one. 

I am close to finishing Life is Strange 2 

 

Damn it is WAY better then the first one - it a way that I like - it is story - and emotional one at it. I almost screamed in anger on my TV but not because of my game skill...

but because the story got me.

 

First one was an interesting concept that it for sure. But his one - really make you fell emotions - a lot - it hit me deep.

 

It touched on everything - immigrants, gays, family issues, what friends are, etc etc...

 

Don't play it if you are a hardcore gamer though. The only gameplay is walking and choosing dialogue option s. But still.... What a ride!

 

 

Also. Don't play if you don't like people of color or or different sexual orientation and not willing to change your mind.

Just a warning - this game is very liberal in this sense. But that is NOT the issue. In fact it should not even BE an issue.

 

I come from a family where gay was something looked down upon. I am not. But I always fail to understand why the hate. I have gay friends. And I would always stand up for freedom to live like you want. Love is Love.

 

I am playing Life is Strange - true colors. So far only chapter one but but I am not sure it is better then Life is Strange 2.

 

World is pretty but the story and power does not feel as relatable as the LiS2 

 

Hope that it improves as it goes... And that I can find more interactive story games (I am also replaying Batman Enemy Within - played it on PC - now on Playstation)

 

Cannot wait for Wolf Among Us 2 - but it is going to be a while I bet...  And the team is different - not sure new TellTale can make a game in the way that I love.

    • On Tuesday, Microsoft drilled another hole in the duo's sinking relationship with the debut of its MAI-Thinking-1 AI model, a midsize model that the company said is intended for high-efficiency, low-token-cost situations...... https://finance.yahoo.com/markets/article/microsoft-and-openais-relationship-continues-to-crumble-183330195.html  
    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI by David Uzondu The Ladybird Browser Project has announced it will no longer accept public pull requests and will limit changes to those made by its maintainers as it works towards its first alpha release. According to Ladybird's creator Andreas Kling, this is "not a change we make lightly," but the rapid shift in AI capabilities forced their hand. Previously, a massive PR implied that the person behind it put a lot of care into the code and is ready to "answer for the consequences." Now with AI, anyone can generate a PR without even understanding the bug fix or feature they want merged. The blog post goes on to say that the team is closing all open public pull requests immediately, and that maintainers will not treat external forks as a review queue for upstream Ladybird. Instead, the team wants outside contributors to focus on reporting bugs and running tests. Kling started Ladybird back in 2019 as LibHTML, a simple HTML viewer for his hobby operating system, SerenityOS, but by September 2022, it had turned into a full-fledged browser project. What sets Ladybird apart from the likes of Google Chrome, Apple Safari, or Mozilla Firefox is its totally independent engine, which does not rely on pre-existing codebases. The project maintains a strict policy against default search engine deals or user data monetization, keeping development funded entirely by donations and sponsorships. Generative AI is forcing open source project maintainers to rethink how they handle public code contributions (and the whole open-source thing in general). One month ago, a leak about the National Health Service (NHS) suggested the organization was planning to take all of its public repositories private ahead of a May 11 deadline, thanks to Mythos (an AI model that Anthropic believes is too dangerous to be released to the public) and its ability to find and write exploits for zero-day vulnerabilities. Thankfully, the Government Digital Service (GDS) issued a counter-report titled "AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector" that stopped the shutdown by pointing out that hiding code does not improve security.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
