Since it *keeps* being repeated by news sites and Youtubers: No, Microsoft are not forcing anti-cheat or anything out of the Windows kernel.

I really feel like people covering it simply didnโ€™t actually read the MSFT blog post.

Dear Game Devs,

Please please please let me access the options/settings as soon as the game loads.

Don't make me sit through a prologue, or intro, or tutorial of any kind. Just let me adjust the audio/graphics/accessibility options ASAP and then I'll look at all of your fun informative stuff, I swear.

On my knees,
Syl

@sylphrin I even started to open the settings menu in order to show the accessibility options because people did not know they existed ๐Ÿ˜…

@sylphrin The 2004 visual novel Fate/Stay Night autoplays the prologue on first play. The prologue lasts at least an hour. Any attempt to go to the main menu restarts the prologue.

Like, how do I exit the game properly?

Like, you can save and load saves, but I prefer to do that from the main menu.

Also the 2024 remaster is still like this.

@sylphrin@mstdn.games game devs in 2024 assuming you have one or two identical screens at most that runs at an ideal 1080p, and you want to play full screen on any of them

also game devs in 1999 assuming you have one chunky CRT, setting the resolution to 640x480 is just gonna make it faster, and higher resolutions are just a courtesy for higher-end graphic cards

@gamingonlinux I've played Portia back when it released and absolutely loved it. I still need to buy and play Sandrock. Hopefully, I can do that before Evershine is released.

@gamingonlinux Wow - didn't realize this ran under the #Godot engine. Played some of the earlier versions -- now I should reset it and start from the beginning again. (Although I've current got many hours into Army of Ruin...and still a long way to go with it....)

@gamingonlinux yeah, let's fight bureaucracy with another competing standards body with it's own governance rules. Wow, how smart

A fair share of wayland projects will just ignore this, mine included

@gamingonlinux not really competing, it's designed to be experimental. To allow for early adoption and real world usage to speed up wayland protocol development.

So while people are bickering on wayland protocols KWin & mutter & Gamescope can actually use things as a stop gap.

Haha, I haven't kept up with emulation for far too long - This is pretty neat.
