Didn't they start using cloudflare to protect against constant ddos attacks causing downtime? Out of both options, having downtime from external servers failing is less of a headache to the admins (they are volunteers, this is the most important factor) than having downtime from internal servers failing.

I feel sorry for colossal order. They're clearly some very passionate people who's dreams have been ruined by their own executives and paradox.

The BBC wrote an article about it but never showed it to anyone. I had to search for it and even then it was a pain to find.

They say they're working on new hardware every time they make their software worse so people think xbox is still worth it. I wouldn't be surprised if the statement is just talking about a prebuilt windows PC that boots straight into game mode and they aren't actually working on a proper console.

Part of rimworld is about the horrible shit you are forced to do. The sims players do all of this BY CHOICE

What I like about FTL is how it works with the story.

My favourite examples are Elite Dangerous and Dune.

Elite Dangerous's FTL tech is based on alien tech and that allows the developers to do cool stuff that you wouldn't expect in an mmo (this is usually a loading screen so when this first started happening people were terrified).

And Dune's idea of having the entirety of interstellar civilisation dependent on one substance that can only be made on one planet, which also has other uses extremely important to different groups, sets the stage perfectly for what happens in the books.

I don't think anyone can spend almost 10 years travelling to make weekly youtube videos and still be sane afterwards

Chris Pratt's only good films were the Guardians of the Galaxy fims and the Lego Movie and his face wasn't even in one of those.

It also makes blisters on your feet hurt A LOT (probably not a problem for most people, but I have a condition that makes me blister a lot more :( it's ruined so many trips that I would have otherwise enjoyed)
