Lifetime gamer, turned journalist (Everyeye.it, Multiplayer.it), turned programmer, turned system architect. Head’s spinning.
The First Berserker is a blast! An almost perfect structured action-RPG with the most innovative combat since a long while.

And a worthy story on top! Must-play.

An incredible new release by #Deafheaven. Post (black) #metal at its best and probably their most polished and complete album.

Top of the new stuff easily, with Body Behaviour as a stunning piece, which leaves you grinning for more…

There are things more important than peace.

One is freedom.

The single most important setting in #MonsterHunterWilds is to turn the Felyne language ON.

Code generation tools fix the problem of software development being slow and expensive in much the same way that faster cars fix traffic congestion.

Overall imo the best of bests from #PlayStation State of Play 2025 is Hell is Us.

Evenmoreso since it’s coming from Rogue Factor devs of Mordheim, a fantasy Xcom-like game from 2015.

What a jump in genres!
With added talents from defunct Eidos Montreal of Deus Ex fame.

And it shows!
Just wow!

Rough launch for #Civ7.

It reminded me too closely of the disaster #Maxis made with the last (and least) SimCity.

Feature-starved gameplay with shallow unpolished mechanics and lack of clarity on what happens in-game. Pretty bad for a strategy heavy title.

What is going on #Firaxis?

Italian rap. I mean. Weird for non-italians, but this kid fucks. Hard.

#KingdomComeDeliverance2 is so good that the amazing stealth, with a simple yet immersive law enforcement system, is just minor.
One of the revolutionary ones (plural) of this #RPG #masterpiece?

First-person real-time melee combat.

#TES6 has a very high bar to pass.
A #BG3 level #cRPG? YEEEEES!

“They have taken you from the Imperial City's prison, first by carraige, and now by boat. To the east, to Morrowind.

Fear not, for I am watchful. You have been chosen.”

O boi! Too Many Bones meets #ElderScrolls in this tablehog of a #boardgames #RPG!!!

Morrowind, here I come.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is one of the best releases of the last few years.

Such a complex game, a smart open world with a defined yet emergent story, witty protagonists, was released bug free.

The freedom is amazing and the CryEngine is at the top of the game again.

It wasn't an "ad hominem".

I'm calling you an idiot because your argument sucks, not saying your argument sucks because you are an idiot.

Subtle distinction, I know, to understand. Especially for an idiot like you.

After a break, we returned to one of our favourite #boardgames. The #boss-battler Kingdom Death Monster, with its emergent storytelling and cunning AI.

The Dragon King is one of the fiercest bosses: its Meltdown Nuclear Blast sent all survivors to hell.

This game is not for the faint of heart.

Why should you trust #AI?

Simple answer: you shouldn’t.

As Ken Thomson put it in 1984, writing about compilers: “You can’t trust code that you did not write yourself. No amount of source-level verification will protect you from using untrusted code”.

This is hyperbolic, though fundamentally true.

#RTX 5080 now sold at €2.100 on #Amazon .it offering a stunning 20% LESS performance of a 4090, for a 66% price INCREASE. Sixtysix percent more money than the 4090, which was €1400.

Let that sink in. The 5080. €800 more than the 4090. For less performance.

A joke. A total failure.
