I'm in the same boat. The water based upkeep mechanic seems punishing, especially for time starved / more casual gamers.

I do think it's very on theme with the game, I hope that they'll tweak it over time - something interesting could be adding a way for more active players to contribute surplus water to a shared supply.

If they manage to tidy the game up and fix some of the glaring issues I'd likely still give it a try even with the water "feature".

Does the mechanic turn you off the game completely?

The Forever Winter, which has launched in early access today, is a grim dark take on the PvE extraction shooter.

I'm pretty sold on the art style and premise, but will be holding off until a little later to play the game as it looks pretty rough around the edges.

Has anyone played / is planning to play this game?

Nice timing indeed. I've read a few review aggregators for the remake and it appears that it's better in every way than the original, so I'm sure you guys will enjoy it.

This is such an interesting remake, I remember playing this when it came out more than 10 years ago, I didn't think it was anything special then.

From what I can see it sold more than 1 million copies back then though, interested to see how well the remake is received and how popular it is.

I picked up and finished Nodebuster this week. It's a pretty chilled out incremental improvement style game that almost becomes idle closer to the end.

I've also been trying to get some games of Spectre Divide (new f2p tactical FPS game) in this week too.

I've recently started using tmux when starting a new SSH session to try to build the habit.

git push origin HEAD is a slightly shorter way of doing the same thing, even though you have an alias anyway lol

I've found it can be a little resource intensive - though I only used it for a couple of projects and haven't tried it again!

 

I'm attending my first pre-release event for the new MTG Universes Beyond set and am super excited to get the new Commander decks to play with my small group.

Anyone else excited for the set? What cards are you most looking forward to?

Any of the Lego games are pretty awesome for local co-op.

I'd also recommend Castle Crashers, it's a hack and slash / beat 'em up style game that supports up to 4 players locally.

This is an awesome shot!

I've seen this happen with a few image posts, not sure what's happening there.

Perhaps try hitting the preview button before posting, just incase.

I've mostly used kdenlive and have had a pretty positive experience, +1 from me

It's hard to tell at this point, in my opinion we need more active general communities before becoming too specific. It's been a little overwhelming seeing the fragmentation of communities across instances here on Lemmy. Hopefully something happens to improve the experience, I'm liking being involved so far though!

I hadn't heard of this game but I'm definitely going to add it to my list to watch out for, thanks for sharing!
