La réussite de la droite ça été de faire passer LFI pour des radicaux. Alors que c'est des réformistes au sens strict.

Oui Macron, toi aussi…

Mmh… I suspect doing this is not legal in Europe as second hand have enforced laws.

Other laws like this (I suspect second hand Steam game licence) have been voted to protect customers from such behavior (in the mindset that customer don’t have to pay for company for having bad protection system).

We will see how Nintendo will react.

C'est romantique!

Plus sérieusement, quand j'étais ado, le macdo était un lieu important, un peu comme un bar pour les adultes. C'est le moment où tu peux manger des trucs bons avec tes amis, sans être chez tes parents.

Bref, je comprend.

Par contre l'indécence du community manager de macdo est à vomir.

Avant d'arriver à des mesures aussi drastiques, on pourrait commencer par interdire la pub des jeux d'argent. Ça ferait plus consensus.

I can’t recommend enough to write your own rule summary. Write it once, and reorganize it as much as you can with the goal to teach it in a fluent way. Teaching also means giving few components to players when you explain them, simulate actions physically (When you say I draw a card, you draw a card, When you say I push ressource A token here, you push the token, etc.).

With heavy games, players expect the owner to be a teacher. Not everyone is good at this. The owner role is to ensure peoples don’t spend a bad time with the game. Teaching the rules in a engaging way is part of owner responsibility.

This is how I take it. I have few heavy game but I try to learn rules and learn to teach rules as much as I can so players feel confident after first turn.

Unity invested a lot in the game engine battle. They loose it and now they need to get cash back.

Doing the dickest move possible reveal they totally abandoned any long term plan.

Let's not keep our expectation for a brighter future too high. UE is now in a dominant position and also have a lot of cash to get back. It will surely be smoother, but still, the time of affordable AAA game engine will slow down.

Having being in the emulator development scene, you have no idea how much you are wrong. “120 fps with glitches” is not “first class”. ;)

That’s such a good question, maybe everyone is dumb, isn’t it?

As a serious answer: Not the same price, not the same games.

Steam Deck is awesome thought.

I suspect this will be more and more common in the future.

I wonder if this can really be stopped.

I think being transparent about what is AI generated or not is very important so we can choose to support "original content" creator.

Maybe AI will make "original creators" more recognition.

Being a fan of engine/tableau builder, Wingspan really disappointed me. It's not a bad game. It a very nice game, but the flow is average, at most.

Depicts some interesting ideas that push me to buy it with it's first expansion (goal board, mix of engine and tableau building) it's hugely luck based and the fact this game is rated 8+ on BGG, that tends to rate games mostly on advanced mechanisms and long run, is still a mystery to me.

I give it 5 plays with different peoples. Yet, I had no fun at all (I mean, zero… Watching flies around was the funniest part of my last game, sadly)… Then I played 51st State, which is a very good (yet not awesome) engine builder and have instant fun from start to end. The feeling of controlling things.

There are some highly rated games on BGG, and while I like some better than others, the ratings never seems off to me. Like “mmh, OK, I see why peoples like it”. But this offset has never been so huge with Wingspan.

So yes, I have it on my shelf, I watch its wonderful box like a disturbing mirror of my gaming tastes, knowing it's praised by many, but I could almost try to find another table just when someone come up with the idea, while I usually really force myself to play games with different peoples because I know you will make peoples happy.

First time in my 20y of gaming, and it makes me feel so weird.

Thanks for reading me.

I'm as happy as you all, but having a teenager that starts to mod games, I realize the whole modding ecosystem of many popular games is Windows only.

Many peoples say you should play on pc because of modding. I would say from a Linux perspective, having the modding community switching to Linux is the next big step.
