I just realized the ambiguity there, it's "Kamala", not "Kamala, combo breaker". The second one would be much cooler though.

people complaining about fall guys/rocket league not being available to purchase on steam is funny to me, because the only people who complain about it are those who own the game already, and it doesn't affect them at all since they already bought it and can keep playing on steam

Wouldn't they be shit out of luck if there's any new DLC, though?

no, the DLC in those games is bought in-game, not through a store

I've been listening to the Giant Bombcast for several years now, it's a great podcast for catching up on vidya games while doing something else.

Lately, though, almost all of the ads are for a) hair loss products and b) fucking ED medicine, and it makes me so fucking uncomfortable. Who the hell is the target demographic for a gaming podcast these days?

They have a good time with it, it made me laugh, the first time.

But man, I never thought I'd miss squarespace ads

The Witness consistently crashes within like 5 seconds after launching in the current area of my save, but I was able to play the first 15 minutes no problem. Similarly, I had a Gloomhaven save that would crash every time I loaded it (very repeatable), but I was otherwise able to play long stretches with no crash. There's gotta be something specific that these games are doing in specific areas that my system chokes on
Hey pterrus, any updates on this? I'm curious.

I have given up, but I think you successfully convinced me the graphics card is the most likely culprit. Maybe one day, when the bitcoin farms move on and a wave of cheap used cards hit the market, I will solve this problem.

The Genshin Impact people just survived an assassination attempt. Dude snuck into their offices with a knife, apparently. The reason was that a character got a bunny girl costume/dance, but only international players got it, Chinese players did not.

to be fair, I have never in my life been told that I could not have a bunny girl costume, and I cannot truly know what my own response would be to such a provocation
