Didn't need to read the article to come to the same conclusion.
TLDR: Unless Merc can pick up Verstappen Russell won't be leaving Merc. Russell has no reason to go to another team because Merc is still one of the top teams and, unless Verstappen becomes available, there're no reason to replace Russell because there's nobody better to replace him with.
Same. I was willing to keep Outer Worlds 2 on my radar because I love Obsidian and they've earned my attention even though I didn't particularly enjoy Outer Worlds 1, but at that price point the game has dropped off my radar. Unless it's getting New Vegas level praise post launch I probably won't be paying any more attention to this game.
I'm in no hurry. If it comes within a year I'll be happy. If it takes longer I'll probably check it out unless some other app has come out that I'm also happy with.
Strictly personal reason. When the lemmy devs asked for monetary donations I voiced my concern with Lemmy.ml, which they also maintain. In response one of the devs called me a cheapskate, so I decided I'm done with Lemmy until more normal people become maintainers
Edit: forgot to add that it wasn't the only reason. The devs themselves are rather controversial in their beliefs and moderation and I had reluctantly tolerated thoss things up to that point. The dev interaction was simply the last drop in the bucket.
Hopefully voyager dev takes a look at piefed integration. I would absolutely love to get back to voyager but for me getting away from lemmy was more important than sticking to voyager.
Probably made more from every schmuck who didn't know they would be replaced for free and bought extra.
I haven't read the new TOS but if this review is correct it looks like a GDPR nightmare for them. Good luck to them explaining why they need to collect all that personal data.
You can skip some fights by running past enemies, but if you're struggling with combat the best solution is to take some time to optimize your builds. The game incentivizes glass cannon builds where you generally kill mobs before they can even attack. If they can't attack you don't have to worry about dodging/partying. I won't give any actual builds, those take too much effort and IMO it's more fun to figure them out yourself. But I will give some tips to make combat easier.
If you have defensive pictos/lumina equipped swap them for damage or AP.
Don't be scared to use color of lumina (for more lumina points) as you can get hundreds of them throughout the game. Trust me, having more lumina equipped will absolutely make the game easier
Also don't be scared to use recoats to respec your characters, you can get plenty of recoats. Try out different skills as some of them are more useful than others.
If you're struggling to strike first in combat equip first strike lumina on all characters. That lumina pretty much becomes mandatory in late game as even with all the speed modifiers stacked you still might not start first.
Also invest points into agility. Agility is the main stat for speed and speed dictates how often you can attack.
Depends on how you define wiping the slate clean? Just for the users or also for the hardware and software vendors?
Because the difficulty of Linux comes from the lack of hardware and software support. If you just compare the OS then for the average user there little to no difference in terms of functionality. People probably would ever prefer Linux due to it being just generally faster than Windows. You wouldn't pay extra to to get something that runs worse.
What people will pay extra for is the guarantee that their hardware and software just works. The only benefit Windows has is that you don't have to worry if your hardware or software will work because in 99.9% of the time it does and if it doesn't you can contact support and they won't instantly tell you your system isn't supported.
