I haven't found an online multiplayer community that wasn't utterly toxic. This is why I stick to single-player campaigns.
So I’ve been playing Overwatch (support main) and I’m starting to hate it.
Every match I’m frantically playing whack a mole to keep my team alive but they do nothing to protect me from the enemy flankers. Tank characters (who used to be actual “tanks” and help protect their teammates) are just attackers. So no help.
the first 100 times I had goons spamming the chat with “heals ffs”, rushing over to help and have them fuck off and leave me to die was fine, but it got old real fast.
Keep losing games and getting blamed for the losses when I am literally doing nothing but healing my team and… well…
Why am I playing this again? None of my friends are. I’m done: maybe will rejoin once PvE comes online again, like they promised, or if they balance some of the characters so that brigitte and what’s her name with the damage orbs are actually healers rather than just another flavour of attackers… sigh
It does! And it is about to improve in January or February.Sad to hear that. I played a lot of Overwatch 1 when it came out. Did get tired of the PvP mode however. So in the end, I just played the Play vs. AI mode.
The players in that mode, were very chill. Surprisingly a lot of them only played that mode. But I don't know, if that still exists in Overwatch 2.
Start of the month I finally caved and bought a 2nd hand 3070ti to replace my aging and well worn pair of 970s in SLI. I'm 99% certain the 3070ti came from a mining rig, but aside from a slight fan rattle at max speed and one of the DP ports not working (not a huge issue, I just enabled my CPUs onboard graphics to run my 4th monitor) it's running fine and Furmark and 3dMark benchmark it okay.
The dodgy port shenanagins prompted me to update my monitors and I ended up with a Black Friday early deal 32" 4k Samsung for under £200 to replace a much loved 24" Dell 1980x1200.
Naturally I had to have a game to play with to show off my new graphics card and monitor, and bought No Man's Sky via CDkeys for £12. It looks like one of those games I might lose half my life to.
And thanks to Steam's sale, I've got Cyberpunk 2077 downloading right now.

I didn’t get in too deep but Vermintide 2 and Deep Rock Galactic seemed more easygoing than average.Amen to that. There's a reason why I despise good looking multiplayer only games.
Tomorrow...
I am assuming he is excited about the upcoming Dwarf Fortress release on Steam?How does this relate to video games…?
Indeed today Dwarf Fortress has released on steam. Everyone should get it. It's high art.I am assuming he is excited about the upcoming Dwarf Fortress release on Steam?

Basically it's one of the OG colony builders like Rim World. But it's so much more than that. It's a passion project by 2 brothers. You generate a fantasy world with it's own history, religions and even semi-randomly generated monsters. Then you can either play Fortress mode, where you build a dwarven colony, or adventure mod, which runs a bit like a freeform Angband/Larn/Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.Never heard of it
Is there a Mac version coming for my M1?Indeed today Dwarf Fortress has released on steam. Everyone should get it. It's high art.
Tim de Nee, a former rpg.net alumni, Kiwi, and fantastic visual artist, did a spectacular comic based upon a play-through of the game he did.Never heard of it
I'm sorry to say that you have chosen poorly when it comes to operating systems. Apparently you can run the pre-steam version on Mac: https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Installation#MacIs there a Mac version coming for my M1?
It's a must-buy if so, a sad wait or contemplating emulation if not, depending on if a future compatible version is coming.

It's extremely detailed, with individual dwarves having stuff like individual fingernails and toes that can be removed in combat.
This can lead to absurd stuff like having a necklace made out of Goblin Teeth, or a wall engraved with a scene of a dwarf being devoured by a RNG monster. It has no real win state so the players can set their own goals.
It has, until today, also been very obtuse for new players to learn and used ASCII for graphics so it's remained somewhat of a cult classic game.
The developers started having health issues in recent years and wanted to make sure that they weren't entirely reliant on donations so they gave the game a tutorial, qol improvements and some nice graphics so they could sell it on steam.

As for the Steam version I don't know.
Edit: Just looking around, while there's no official confirmation, it's probable that the steam release will be available for Mac.
How can one blaspheme when they haven't heard the good word?And here, I thought you were just going to yell "Blaspheeeeemer!" at him :-)

That's when we bring out the carp and dingos.Eh, good point. Preach on, brother, preach on!
But then if he doesn't convert...?
I also installed Morrowind because I had it on the PC but at the time never gave playing much thought beyond sneaking into peoples houses, killing them and stealing everything that wasn't nailed down. So I thought 'Let's actually do the missions."
Let's just say 'you can't go home again'. Ambitious but dated graphics and UI. Complete disparity between actions and stats meant combat was a case of my furious flurry of blows equaled no hits whatsoever. A draw distance measured in centimetres and constantly being thrown out of the immersion by textboxes. Oh Morrowind...you were mindblowing back in the day but that day is long gone. All we are is dust in the wind....
