It just stopped receiving updates, even security ones.

Well, how’s it supported? This is usually what kills these phones. Even brand like Xiaomi dump their non-flagship model really soon. I have one, bought as a new model, was officially supported for like a year. Great.

Planescape is awesome. The only game that came close to its story (and one I’ve played) is Disco Elysium, which is quite a feat. Given how DE is praised everywhere.

Do you drive it with family?

If I was alone, this would be an option. With family, not so much. I’ve heard horrible stories, struggling to go uphill with 4 people on board, etc. And I live in a hilly area.

It’s a cool car, yes. Too small for me, but cool as fuck. Used ones are affordable, but it’s still 34k € new, which is not cheap at all.

Not a single one of them is available where I live. And once I checked them, they’re not really family cars I was hoping for.

It depends… As our old Ford gave up, I bought used car at the end of 2023. It is Kia Ceed SW, was three and a half years old when I bought it and I paid roughly 14k € for it, which is about my ceiling for a car. Not that I couldn’t pay more, but I don’t want to as our family doesn’t drive that much. Our last car did about 5-10k km a year and this one is no different.

When I was checking BEV at the time there was nothing usable at my price range and area. Couple of used E-Ups, which are too small honestly (that’s why we bought SW, trunk is always full of something). Same goes for BMW i3, which is also so hideous my wife said it would be a divorce. Not many E-Golfs, most of them totally abused, and way older than I’d like. Few Renault Zoes, but that’s a brand I wouldn’t trust with my past experience… There was simply nothing that would make sense. Not sure how it changed during 2024, but my hopes are low.

Well, I mean a car where I can fit with my wife, two kids, bag of groceries and still drive uphill…

Gimme cheap, simple and reliable EV with guaranteed 200km range and I’m sold. I don’t need bazillion of cameras inside and out, I don’t need glass roof, I don’t need 200kW of ridiculous power I would never use, I don’t need always online maps for a subscription fee and I don’t need 20" infotainment, neither I need 3 zone AC with ventilated seats and ballsack massage device, etc. I just want a Dacia of EV market.

Wrapping it up with anything involving Fred Durst feels like spit in the face honestly.

Oh come on! First Arma (Operation Flashpoint) had photorealistic graphics and played like a dream… That’s how I remembered it until I tried it 20 years later. Boy oh boy…

I started Wizardry 8 as my first one and it instantly became one of my favourites. Even though the story is somewhat continuation of 6 and 7, not knowing these is not a problem at all. It’s still interesting and well explained even for novice players. Much later I’ve tried both 6 and 7 and even though I felt I could like them and I even liked the hand made graphics, it was the user interface of the early 90s that was just too much for me.

Let’s hope it’s just another wccftech article pulled out of author’s anus…

That’s better, because he would have to live his life knowing he completely fucked himself.

And don’t even get me started on that damn copy protection level “what is 7th word on 16th line on page 23 in manual”!

I’ve quite recently made run of D2 up to middle of Act V and rhen lost interest at all. It was a bit grindy, but the main problem was convenience factor. I was at the point when my summoning Druid started to lack behind and it is pretty much impossible to respec skills to fight that sort of bad decisions… When I was a teenager I’d just scratch it and start over with better build, but ain’t nobody got time for that now!

For me it would probably be most old DOS era games like Dune 2, Ultima Underworld, Warcraft 1, Civilization 1, etc. All of them were great, but it’s really difficult to get used to those old control schemes nowadays. Pixelated graphics wouldn’t bother me, but those like 15 FPS at max is also hard to get over these days.

Other than that it would be some newer games that lacks a bit of convenience stuff. Like e.g. Diablo 1, where you can’t run yet. Or some of the first 3D accelerated shooters that can’t remap controls to WASD.

Well, I’d say Morrowind is still decently playable today, esp. with OpenMW. Sure it shows its age, but I’d ratber play that than e.g. Oblivion.

It’s ugly AF and totally breaks the concept. At least that’s what I think about it.
