Oh hell, mine too back in August. Guess I’ll have to take it out drinking next year.

The funny thing is, it’s not actually hidden if you know how to see them. Just throw “/likes” after a profile. They only hid the fucking button.

Lol yeah I don’t think OP knows what penultimate means.

And you take negative feedback poorly, just roll with the punches. It happens.

Also it’s not really a Microsoft thing as proven by the fact it’s requiring Java of all things, not .Net or any other Microsoft-proprietary runtimes.

No problem, glad I was able to recognize the symptoms so quickly. It was incredibly frustrating too! Oh, one more thing to do is launch Heroic from terminal so you can see the output. That’s how I knew which game was causing it.

First I disabled the flood control just to make sure I could get it working. I’m not sure about Heroic, but Lutris has an online database for games and I looked up Dead Space and found the correct game ID to set it to. Once it was on the right ID, it found the assets it needed and was done in under a second.

Are you using pihole?

I ask because Lutris was killing my network too and it took me like two weeks to figure out the root cause. For me, this is what was happening. I had Dead Space Remake installed. Lutris used the name of the game to identify it, but was incorrect. Then it would try to download assets for the game but apparently they changed the URL path. But when Lutris failed to get them, instead of giving up, it HAMMERED my DNS with requests, triggering pihole to engage its flood controls and kick me off DNS for 5 min.

If you use pihole, watch your query log live and see what is happening.

Yeah really sounds like the organizers are out of touch with what the competitive, organized teams are needing. And $400 entry fee? Yeesh, that’s how you get an immediate no from all your casual teams and then your pros see there’s no one signed up.

Serious question, but what exactly makes it one of the worst? It’s also one of few that is ioXt certified and is guaranteed log-less like all good VPNs should be.

Wait, should I stop expecting the Segway to finally become the next big thing??

I wanted to say Outer Wilds too simply to have OP join us in our search for that high of another player experiencing this game for the first time. Nothing quite like seeing the game “click” when they finally get those big plot points.
