• Ubisoft is killing off a game millions have bought (The Crew)

  Do not forget that when you look at your Steam profile; https://steamcommunity.com/id/[username]/games/?tab=all that you own none. Zero You own a license which can be revoked and you - currently - have no recourse. https://gog.com is one alternative, I am sure others here know more. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Baldur's Gate 3 won The Game Awards 2023

  And I really need to repeat COMPLETE because of how they haven't cut out shit. The game has a ton of content, they literally put in everything they thought of, without the classic "let's better take this and sell it apart as a DLC" bullshit many, many studios do beforehand nowadays. And they also released it on GOG.com, a DRM-Free store, too. Source: 6 months ago

• Legion Go: Just Tablet-Mode Games

  Game I tested recently that I was impressed by how well it worked was Baldur's Gate Enhanced edition. Worked great using the track pad and worked great using just the touch screen. So based on this, I imagine BG2 Enhanced edition and Torment Enhanced would work really well as well as its the same dev. All gog.com. But I understand if they're not to appealing because they are oldies. I'm still to try Shadowrun,... Source: 6 months ago

• What's your favorite 90s RPG?

  There was this company when I was a kid called Spiderweb Software. They released independent RPG games for windows in the 90s and 2000s. I highly reccomend their Avernum series of games. You can get them for dirt cheap on gog.com. Source: 6 months ago

• I have a question about Witcher one.

  On allegro.pl it goes between 50 and 120PLN, but that's for Extended Edition, and this one isn't it. It has been widely available on Polish market, there were a lot copies around and it has been made obsolete by Extended Edition next year (also in box and a nicer one at that), it was relatively dirt cheap at the time, so the value isn't high. Especially if the registration codes were already redeemed (yes, they... Source: 6 months ago

• RIP Stadia - Where to play? 🤷

  Before I built my rig. I used paperspace.com and parsec. you'll probably have to request that they unlock a better gpu server for you though. If you need any help just shoot me a message. Its like 50 cents an hour. Source: over 1 year ago

• AWS doesn't make sense for scientific computing

  There are several tier-two clouds that offer GPUs but I think they generally fall prey to the many of the same issues you'll find with AWS. There is a new generation of accelerator native clouds e.g. Paperspace (https://paperspace.com) that cater specifically to HPC, AI, etc. workloads. The main differentiators are:. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Casual ESO cloud gaming in a post-Stadia world

  Guess you've never heard of paperspace.com :) Their systems (depending on the configuration ofc) work great with ESO and they run windows and it's parsec compatible. Source: over 1 year ago

• Mac vs. PC - which to buy?

  Something else to look into for a Windows machine would be Paperspace. It can be a little flaky at times, but you get a Windows machine in the cloud which works from a web browser. Even a pretty good one only costs $7 a month for storage 50¢ an hour to run. If you need a Windows machine in a hurry this is definitely your cheapest option. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Any piece of hardware that was more of game changer than you expected?

  Have you ever tried Paperspace (https://paperspace.com)? I've spent many hours gaming using their Windows offerings, although always strategy games so the latency hasn't been noticeable. I'm not sure how well it would work for FPS (probably reasonably, to be honest). They have a large number of general computing/graphics-specific machines you can spin up, and you can either pay per hour or per month. I've also... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
