They renamed the town, it's called Val-des-Sources now.


Was WASD even around back during doom2?


Looks like it doesn't work on firefox.

Cool plugin idea though!


Question, if you can remote start a subaru with starlink, does that mean I could start my car from the command line during winter??? I don't pay for starlink, never really looked into it, but it sounds cheaper than installing a remote start system lol.



that still requires an active subscription unfortunately


I'm guessing the subscription activates some sim card? I wonder if that's activated anyway and still tracks you if you don't sign up...


Based off what we've seen at this point it would be worthwhile to try.


My guess is licensing, they probably sold exclusive licenses, and part of that is delisting on other platforms.


I dont think so, they own a lot of these games and IP's outright, and most don't have licensed content. I think they're doing the same thing they did when they removed the Sonic titles from the collection a few years ago -- they're preparing some new title for those IPs, and some of these games will come with, so people will double dip under the guise of cleaning up their offerings


Probably this; I wonder if they're all going to Epic for a few years before coming back.


Or they think they can make more selling some sort of bundle.


I guarantee they didn't invent anything new to gaming. It's just like all those studies that claim tetris helps with ptsd, stress, lazy eye, postpartum depression, etc. It's just a game. There's nothing that makes this game, or tetris specifically special.


Even though there were a lot of studies on other existing games helping "ptsd, stress, lazy eye, postpartum depression, etc.".

I wonder if they were to be used in some treatment, they would also need to be approved? So Tetris itself wouldn't cost, but the doctor administering treatment gets approval to use the game, and that overall treatment costs the money.

I'm little unsure if any joe blow psychologist is allowed to makeup treatments, or if they go through an approval process also.


Nice bait

One of my favorite documentaries was made by Noclip, which tells the story of Half-Life and Valve. It is soo good, a must watch. Interestingly, though, it features no one from Valve, as they, in typical Valve fashion, ignored their requests. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQLEW1c-69c

So I'm very excited to watch this new documentary featuring people who worked on the game, made by the same people, such a surprise haha.


Yeah, they definitely keep that vid under wraps. There's has been zero mention of it on their patron and weekly podcasts.


I immediately got a déjà vu feeling from the intro like I had seen this already in a Noclip documentary. Nice to finally get this 'episode 3' in the documentary series.


Haha yes! The Black Mesa doc is also very good :D


The title in metric but the article in imperial had me very confused.


Currency conversion at the same time made it double complicated.
