I’ve lived in 5 countries across 3 continents, so I do have some perspective on this.

The first point is finding out local immigration laws, even if you don’t need a tourist visa, you will need legal authorization to stay in a country on a more permanent basis.

Which brings me to my second point, you need local employment to get authorization for permanent stay (or proof of above average independent income).

Another option is to go study in a country. This is expensive and you will need to win scholarships if you don’t have a lot of money. Countries always try to make money on foreign students.

Another option is to teach English, but this is likely harder than it used to be (15 years ago or so). Although it is worth exploring this opportunity, unlikely to work for EU though.

Do you have any relatives in other countries? Close friends?

I will speculate it’s going to be difficult to move to Netherlands if you don’t have family or a skillset that is in high demand.

I would explore developing countries where you can likely get a good job (by local standards, so $1,000 to $2,500) if you have a degree and some solid work experience.

Cheers!

I think this is due to the broader “move towards AI”, gaming was big around COVID, now it’s in a massive decline, at least in terms of employment and investment opportunities, if not actual revenues.

Microsoft is a criminal organisation that thrives on corruption (no real action being taken with respect to anti trust proceedings is still relevant today).

Crime isn’t only about someone stealing your phone, extracting many billion of dollars via oligopolistic methods of limiting competition and leaving people with no other option than to use their products (irrespective of price or feature considerations) is also criminal activity.

They are not going to fight the US administratorion on this.

“Boomer shooter” refers to old school FPS/shooters in the sense of boomer = old? Never knew that.

I always thought it was because of the more fast paced styles of the older games and emphasis on explosive weapons.

Most people who played Doom / Unreal / Hexen when the games were released were early millenials or tail end “Gen X”. From memory, FPS games weren’t really that popular among people in their 30s and early 40s in the 90s. It was all young kids, teenagers and (I am assuming) university students.

Have yet to play the remake. Played the original on PC in 99 or so. It was a very novel experience at that time (I had mostly played cRPGs, RTSs, city-builder/tycoons etc.). A lot of the puzzles were challenging for young brain though.

I think it should be less than $30 in my region (we get very good discounts).

I will just wait for a nice discount.

Never heard about a zombie version of RDR.

Checked out the Wikipedia page and they even have a PC version.

Went to steam and found out that the game costs $50! That’s really too bad, but I will be on the lookout if it gets discounted.

I don’t have any issues when loading the page on Firefox Mobile with UBO. It looks fine, no popups or scam style hijacks.

Does Genshin allow you to play as Winnie the Pooh (doesn’t have to be the US version, the Fyodor Khitruk version looks cool too)?

This short discussion thread has feedback from a person who tried the latest demo and they were impressed.

I tried the demo from late last year and I thought it had potential. I liked the setting and the customization options.

Cheers. I am actually looking for a KB+M experience for Final Fantasy 7, I know, a bit strange.

The 2012 PC version seems like the best bet. That being said, I have a modding guide bookmarked that seemed very comprehensive, need to just go for it.

Older article, but I just read about the game/concept and I thought I would share since I couldn’t find anything about Blippo+ on this community.

As weird as this sounds, the screenshots make me want to play the original FF7.

I tried it back in the day, but my frame of reference was FO1/2, Might and Magic, etc., so the general JRPG style seemed off.

I am willing to give it another go 25+ years later. There are also seem to be aot of good mods for FF7.

I don’t really see why public or private status matters in the picture. It will be still be the same culture (and leadership?). They try something new, but if will still be the same old IMO.

I could be wrong though, I don’t really have much interests in AAA outside of a few exceptions.

On one hand this is big news, on the other hand, I don’t really see how this matters.

The last EA game that I bought was SimCity (2013) and that was comically bad. Just my experience, but it’s not like fans of their sports games will be looking for alternatives (irrespective of what EA does).

Please post the video on games/pcgaming when you are done.

Soma is one of my favourite games of all time. Finished it two sittings (needed a break for sleep). I think it took me longer than most, but I was also exploring the world a lot.

This is on voyager/mobile, so on desktop I guess it would be the attach image, not the first body image.

I wasn’t refering to the fighting screenshot. :)

Top screenshot looks really picturesque.

I will add a link to the sidebar.
