Hammerfight is free now. https://store.steampowered.com/app/41100/Hammerfight/ It has physics based melee combat with dieselpunk heliicopter thingos. It's also incredibly janky but quite fun when it works.

FREE WITH GOLD, NOT FREE FREE If you have Xbox gold, Diablo 3 and The necromancer expansion are free to play. May only work on Xbox One/series. base game Expansion You may have to be logged in for the links to pop up to install for free. Some people have reported it only worked for them through console not through the website. I had no issues on the website. Ymmv. Cross posting in all relevant threads.

Worth noting that the Diablo 3 Xbox stuff is marked as "Included with Gold", which is typically used for poo poo like free trial weekends where it's not properly tied to your account and can be yanked at any time. Best theory I heard in the Xbox thread was that this was planned as a promo free weekend kinda thing in the leadup to the release of the Diablo 2 remaster, but it got cancelled after a few things came up and someone at Microsoft didn't get the memo.

Battlefield V is up on amazon prime. Ah, stupid question - how do I terminate my prime trial to see whether I've retained access to the games on Origin? Or do I just have to wait for the trial to run out?

Also on Twitch Prime, but through their own client (that you can run the games without): Lost Horizon 2 A Normal Lost Phone Another Lost Phone: Laura's Story Planet Alpha Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis Metamorphosis Secret Files: Tunguska

drat, thanks the head's up about Amazon. I totally forgot about their games, because they're usually crap, but there's some nice ones here.

Xander77 posted:Battlefield V is up on amazon prime. If you let the trial expire, it’ll flip to a full paid sub. There’s a prime bit of the Amazon control panel on their website. Ed: looks like you can cancel it from their mobile app now. Bring up your profile page, then Your Account, then Prime Membership then Manage Membership right at the top.

Welp, finally did it, bought a game on steam that I already got for free from Epic. Control complete edition was on sale right after I got my first pay check at a new job. Then a week later Epic had a pop-up about the Control DLC being on sale so I checked and apparently owned the base game. I'm actually playing control, which is rare enough for games I buy, but I hadn't reached the DLC yet.

Breadallelogram posted:it's amazon, the only thing we should regret is that they get any of our money at all Amazon is one of those things that Is great in theory, horrid in execution, but I could say the same thing for capitalism itself. I genuinely like the idea of a neutral-ground online superstore with fast shipping where everyone can put products, but it's not really a neutral ground, Amazon has too much power, it's full of shoddy products and false advertising and, as with everything, the people who to the real work are beaten to death for no wages. I take pride in 'stealing' as much as I can from the rich as possible. They started it. Skwirl posted:Depending on the school there's a decent chance most their students have more disposable cash. Don't get me started. Firstly, in my salad days I was accepted to two elite 'Ivy League' type universities, and I do not regret going to neither. They are nothing more than ways to perpetuate classism and neoliberalism and keep the rich rich. Secondly, I recently applied for a position at a very prestigious private school which is not either of the above elite schools. I'm reasonably content at my current gig, and I only really applied due to the geographical location of said private university and a lower cost of living in said geographical location; I couldn't give less of a poo poo about their 'reputation' as it's mostly due to sport. The tuition at this place is, not exaggerating, 10-11 times that where I work now. The position was identical to my current one in every way that matters, and I found out that rich kid school paid slightly less than my current one. Utter bullshit.

Some insane number like 60% of all internet traffic routes through AWS, too. Even if you were to buycott Amazon proper, you're still using something like, say, cloud front when you're streaming video from wherever that has their resources on AWS. People handwring about the government "shutting off" the internet, but if any one company actually has that power...it's Amazon. Capitalism bad, free stuff good. Do crimes, be gay.

Well I tried Hammerfight and it doesn't even want to work on my computer. The window it opens in is minuscule and then it grabs my mouse pointer and holds it in the middle so I can't even try to do anything. I knew people said it was kinda janky but drat

I knew people said it was kinda janky but drat Yeah, time hasn't been kind to it. I can get ingame but then the physics bug out in ways that make progress impossible, like cutscene npcs and defense targets exploding for no reason. It works for some people but I've never figured out what they're doing different.
