Yeah, this is some good shit. Spelunky is back.
Yes?So, uhm. It's a rogue like?
Most likely because the windows store backend PC game pass uses is total shit.kinda weird...console game pass gets ea play in november (on sx launch day) but pc doesn't get it til december. wonder why, maybe some kind of infrastructure setup thing?

I think rouge-lite, there's some progression between runs if I'm not mistakenSo, uhm. It's a rogue like?
I don't like rogue likes.Yes?
And of course, a lot of people prefer to own their games. Some games like Crusader Kings 3 are games people will play for years, but will leave game pass after a certain time. Imperator Rome left after 9 months.never had an issue with ms store myself, sucks for those who do though. i'm also not one to fiddle with windows components anymore so i wonder if that's related.

Awesome, bought base game for ~$5 recently and was eyeing the expansion, but it was quite expensive when not on sale.
So far it's deserved.
Spelunky 2 already the top seller
Rogue Legacy 2 doesn't have too much content right now but it's solid.So far it's deserved.
Between Spelunky 2, Risk of Rain 2 and Hades, it's been a good year for roguelikes. Haven't bought Rogue Legacy 2 yet so can't say anything about it,

It's a HP 255 G7 with A4-9125/AMD R3/4GB RAM/256GB SSD.Ok damn, that's a pretty weak laptop.
Can you post specs?
Try to read about them, some budget phones have ads, like they literally put ads like in the settings and stuff. Also some have adware that you can't uninstall, like Facebook and such. If the price is low there is a reason.Sorry for the random question, but since I need to buy a new phone, and I'm clueless about them, may I ask: if you had to choose a budget phone, which would you select:
-Huawei Y6p (which is around 85€, after using customer points)
-XIAOMI Redmi 9C (which is around 120€)
-Huawei P smart 2019 (which is around 103€, after using customer points)
-Huawei Y5p (which is around €57, after using customer points)?
thanks

These cheaper ones are after using Vodafone points, which I have a ton of.Try to read about them, some budget phones have ads, like they literally put ads like in the settings and stuff. Also some have adware that you can't uninstall, like Facebook and such. If the price is low there is a reason.
I believe the Y6p is a 3GB RAM version.Out of the first 3:
P Smart has the best screen and the best specs, but the worst battery.
Y6p is the only one which has a 4GB RAM version, which assuming you can get that, makes it a decent choice.
~100€ range won't get you anything worthwhile tbh, you're better off buying something used for that money. You'd want at least something similar to Redmi Note 8 Pro if you're buying new, and that'll be ~200€.
I'd argue that this isn't necessarily the way it has to go. It's just that with more money comes more bullshit in terms of management and bean-counters. Star Citizen is a good example of what happens with a lot of money and letting people do their thing with little amounts (if any) of dumb-dumbs at the top. Despite what people on the internet like to say, things are getting very impressive.Sadly, that's the problem with rising budgets, and that continuous "quest" of always wanting more and better graphics, and a lot of spectacle, at the expense of gameplay.
It makes teams risk-averse.
Even Japanese developers, who frequently had some "quirky" games, and outlandish concepts, have mostly become heavily sedated.
With teams increasing in size, and budgets rising, companies are much less likely to try out new ideas and concepts, and go for proven formulas.
This isn't exclusive to the videogames industry (see, for example, the film industry; it's incredible how we have a lot less diversity in genres than we used to have a few decades ago).
Thank the gods I didn't splurge when I got the game for 5 bucks a week ago. Phew!
Online was delayed. No clue when its coming :/I haven't finished the first Spelunky..guess I should before I get the second one. Tempted as it supposedly has online.
And that is cool about elite d horizons.
Out of those, I'd get the Xiaomi. Primarily since their software is more usable in my (limited!!) experience. The Helio SoC is far from a beast, but for normal phone stuff it's easily fast enough. The screen resolution is a bit of a bummer.Sorry for the random question, but since I need to buy a new phone, and I'm clueless about them, may I ask: if you had to choose a budget phone, which would you select:

It's a collection of expansions including Engineers and Fleet carriers, both of which are both cool and involve a lot of grinding. It also enables landing on atmosphere-less planets. It's probably in preparation for Odyssey's release in 2021. It's a sound move and I won't say no to free stuff .Is Horizons the one that lets you land on planets? If so its a cool addition. That first landing is pretty fun (and a bit stressful!)
Yeah i havent played it for quite a while. I enjoyed it for a bit, did some of the community challenges which helped get me some funds to buy a couple of ships. The sound effects always stood out for me. Great noises.It's a collection of expansions including Engineers and Fleet carriers, both of which are both cool and involve a lot of grinding.

The game is still rather... I don't know, very treadmill-y. It's all about making bars fill up and advancing rather than the experience and journey. I'm still playing it a bit but after 20-odd hours, I'm not all that into it. Also, supercruise has to be one of the most mandatorily boring space sim travel ever. At least others have the decency to let you afk instead of simply throttling up and down.
The sound design is both really nice, and a tiny bit dated in its implementation now. It's hard to put into words but it isn't as spatial and systemic as I'd like it to be, but the sounds themselves are pretty fantastic. If I had VR, I think it would be a lot more intense and enjoyable, for sure! But I'm not sure that the fundamental issues I have with it would go away. It'd be more of a transformative lease on life.Yeah i havent played it for quite a while.

I found playing in VR to be amazing and it was nice when in supercruise to get up and wander around the cockpit looking at the stars.
I don't want to get into much politics, but Trump pretty much banned Huawei from using Google services, which means you can't use Play store to download apps, such as Google maps.
