@Cyanidethwcring There were rewards for leveling every class to max level, specifically in expansions like Legion. I'm not a fan of how the demon plays, so I just leveled it to maximum level then kind of ignored them. Same with other classes with lower play time.

@ZoidCTF I assume that things like demon hunters play time are just pure leveling and some story content?

Sorry but I'm Canadian so there's only one correct answer for me:
Gravy.

Ketchup or mayonnaise?

Neither, I used 4DOS (and later 4NT) as a COMMAND . COM replacement. I think its called Take Command these days.
The 4DOS upgraded command line was better than these text GUIs. Function key file wildcard matching, all sorts of great shortcuts.

This one is for the OGs. Norton Commander or PC Tools - which was your #1?

Someone should tell him how the Overwatch League worked out.

MrBeast reveals he wants to buy a professional League of Legends team “I love League of Legends. When I was like 14 I wanted to be a pro League player, I used to look up to Faker and all the top players” “It’d be awesome to buy an LCS team, pour tons of money into it, spoil the players and try make a run for Worlds, that’d be amazing” “You know how rich people buy like NBA and football teams? This would be my version of that"

@kiwitalkz The demos that aren't character based, i.e. relighting the environments are impressive and look very interesting. It's the character stuff that we are reacting poorly to--it is absolutely in the direction of smoothed over AI slop.
The character stuff should have been left out.

This video shows the massive gap in perception between gamers and game devs regarding AI.
Gamers seem to be anti AI and game devs embrace it and see the potential of it.

@CallMeTasteless The blob competitive game puzzle took me forever to beat. I hate it.
English
This is wild! I remember being stuck in this game for ages as a kid. I couldn’t figure out some of the puzzles.
I actually went back and beat it over a weekend about 7 years ago. It felt great to finally finish it off.
Crazy to see it’s coming back!

@KirbyAu I have no idea how web devs do work on a puny 15" laptop screen. Give me A 32" 4k monitor so I can see more than a few dozen lines of code at a time.

how many these people running debug builds of big ass games while having an IDE connected and needing to generate a build locally? I wanna see some dude parked on the beach with a whole ass threadripper

This happened to me in Destiny as well. I was patrolling on the Dreadnaught when I came across and other player who was using an online handle I hadn't seen over a decade. We reconnected over PSN and had many years to catch up on!
Something about Bungie games!

Ok Uniexpress, you don't have to email me ten times in 45 minutes to tell me I'm getting a delivery today. I figured it out the first time. I wonder if I'm going to get one every five minutes until its delivered.
I have to wonder what broke on their system to spam me like this.

I can't fathom why I need to share this, but here we are: I am feeling a very strong need to rewatch #heavymetal again. And soon. Like it's some sort of weird urge.

I joined Blizzard in Jan 2018 (working WoW Classic) and a month later I bumped in Jeff in the Blizzard cafeteria and mentioned I had been there a month already. He grabbed a plastic spoon and said here's your one month service award. I think I still have the spoon somewhere.

Here's my conversation with Jeff Kaplan, a legendary Blizzard game designer of World of Warcraft and Overwatch, which are two of the biggest, most influential games ever made. Jeff is one of the most genuine & awesome human beings I've ever met: kind, thoughtful, hilarious, and still & forever a gamer through and through. This was a truly fun & inspiring conversation. We talk about it all: the lows, the highs, the memes, the details of the game design process, and the new game he's been secretely working on: The Legend of California. I got a chance to play the game with Jeff, and it's incredibly beautiful (and fun). You can wishlist it on Steam now. I can't wait to play it with all of you! Conversation is here on X in full and is up everywhere else (see comment).

Chris Wilson excellently describes the almost two years of work the WoW Classic team did to ship it. We took the original game content and ported it to the current game code. This was needed to support the modern anti-cheat and customer service tooling. youtu.be/dlt-lJ3n4EE?si…

Had to turn off G-SYNC on my @NVIDIAGeForce 5090 today. There's a bug that's been there for years. If you alt-tab out of a borderless windowed game the display flickers every few seconds. I have to check the web often while playing so this was extremely distracting.
Plz fix.
