The older I get, the less I want to learn new competitive games because I just don't have time anymore. It's just nice to go back to something familiar every now and then.

I have one SSD which I use as a data drive between both Linux and Windows. I used to run Steam games from it, but there were some small problems sometimes, so nowadays I just use it as a storage.

Generally it works just fine, but sometimes Windows does something weird with it especially when running updates, so that Linux can't mount it. During those times I just have to boot to Windows desktop and then come back to Linux and it usually mounts again. If you totally get rid of Windows, I don't think this will happen to you though.

They are legally separate entities, but why should that affect customers?

Because they are not doing it because of customers, they are more likely doing it for themselves. It's easier to manage things on a corporate level when the data is also separated similarly as their companies are.

My guess is that they just want to separate GOG and their game accounts from each other because they are easier to manage that way. I think in legal sense GOG is still a separate corporate entity even though it's owned by CD Projekt.

What even happened to New World? It seemed like a relatively popular game when it came out, but then just disappeared.

What the hell are you talking about. The nordic countries constantly rate as one of the most economically free countries in the world. Capitalism is everywhere in the nordic countries, but it's also used to support comprehensive welfare state.

And yes, I come from the "happiest country in the world" so I guess I can literally see that we are quite capitalistic.

Edit: it seems that the original comment was edited so my comment looks kinda unnecessary now

I always found it kinda sad that Destiny has a lot of lore, but if you are a new player / returning player you can't experience the lore that you have missed because it's just removed from the game.

There was probably some pressure as the game was in development for a really long time it got already delayed by almost a year, but I also feel like it has a lot of design choices which aren't great. The development started right after Fallout 4, so I feel like 8 years of development is a pretty long time and if it had to be rushed out, there had to be some management problems. Feature creep is probably what especially happened, because there are so many game mechanics and features that don't really have good impactful use cases.

Not to spoil anything, but the story and lore is pretty meh. There's really no real sense of exploration like I have felt in Elder scrolls or Fallout. There's just too many loading screens all the time (This is probably an engine limitation, but something that should have been realized in the early phase of development. Probably not really something you can change later). There's a lot of sidequests, but most are just boring without a real story behind them.

The AI is just dumb and once you play for a while, the battles just doesn't challenge you in any way even on higher difficulties. The outpost system just doesn't make sense. It's not like there's not enough features in the outpost system, it just doesn't make sense to use it properly. The stealth system often doesn't make sense and is not useful in any way.

And to not to end it too negatively, I still liked the game. It's just frustrating because I see so many potential game mechanics around me while playing that don't really make sense to use.

I just can't get myself to care about the majority of the content anymore. They make so many videos that the topics just end up being about some goofy and dumb stuff that I don't really care about. The ratio between serious reviews about serious products and some goofy random stuff is just worsening all the time on the main channel and it just pushes me away.

Reddit has banned many piracy subreddits in the past which shared copyrighted material. r/soccerstreams being a huge one.

If you don't like it, don't use it. I like it so I use it. I don't have to validate my choices with things that don't matter.
