LÖVR is really, really, really freaking cool. My new favorite code-first game/graphics programming framework. Its main focus is on VR, but you can disable the VR bits and just use it normally with no problem.

"Artificial Intelligence isn't actual intelligence!" is about as radical a thing to say as "Virtual Reality isn't actual reality!" (in that it isn't radical at all, but does identify you as a very boring person)

And none of them seem to react to replies to their posts because they're just interested in dumping their content as widely as possible without actually wanting to interact with anyone. ;'( (I'm generalizing, but... well.)

Let's gooooo! Freu dich auch auf die KI-generierte Tutorialstimme, die "Turret" wie "Tourette" ausspricht, es erhöht den Charme des Spiels nur =)

Und Dyson Sphere Timelapses sind ihr eigenes Genre auf YouTube (zur Einordnung, das ist quasi das Endgame des Spiels und man kann sich aussuchen, wie viel man sie selber designen will);

DSP spielt sich (was den Fabrikbau angeht) weitestgehend genau wie Factorio, kippt dann aber noch Space Travel, Transportroutenmanagemenr, optionale Weltraumkämpfe und natürlich den Bau einer oder gar mehrerer Dyson Spheres oben drauf. Absolut wildes Spiel & perfekt zum wochenlangen Drinversinken.

Bin mir nicht sicher, was du meinst, aber kann es sein, dass du DSP mit Satisfactory verwechselst?

Puh. Naja, Dyson Sphere Program wartet auf dich.

FWIW, ich finde es deutlich unterhaltsamer als Factorio (falls du das meintest).

Yes, articles like this one have been making the rounds over the last couple of days and causing fits of outrage in people over nothing. As long as retail is a major market force, your physical media aren't going anywhere.

How does that relate to BD-Rs, which is what this is about?

Yeah. I'm super happy to pay for PS+ Premium and would even be willing to accept a higher price because their catalogue is actually incredible. Game Pass started strong (I used to be a huge fan) but then somehow became mostly useless.

How is that related to recordable BD-Rs, which this is about? Surely libraries don't burn their own copies of movies, do they?

Also, it bugs me that this tier forces me to pay for a cloud gaming service I'm not interested in (not because I'm against cloud gaming, which I'm not, but because this particular one sucks, at least here in Germany.)

Four new games at full-ish price! Yes, if you buy a lot of games, it can still be good value, but considering how weak an offering Game Pass has become and how few truly good First Party Day 1 games there have been (and are on the horizon), it's pretty meh.

Der Verkäufer kann aber den Umfang der Leistung reduzieren (keine Day 1 Games mehr) und dich auslachen, falls du es mit seinen Anwälten aufnehmen willst (s. Amazon Prime Video)
