    Steam hasn’t (afaik) revoked access from a game that someone already owns, and DRM on steam is entirely optional, even if you use the steamworks sdk. (source: I am a developer making a game using the steamworks sdk that can run without steam open or installed)




  • Some build advice:

    • Be safe - don’t wear socks, stand on a hard floor if possible, ground yourself if you have a wrist strap for that, and discharge any static by touching metal and/or the case before touching any components. And no matter what, DO NOT open the power supply, and definitely don’t touch anything in it!
    • The huge motherboard connector probably requires more force than comfortable.
    • Watch through at least one build guide before starting. That way you know the process.

    Hope that helps, and don’t let it scare you away - it’s really fun to do and if you’re careful, chances are nothing major will go wrong.




  • Capaldi’s era is definitely a bit more on the serious side. Jodie’s era is unfortunately not very well made as you’ve probably heard, a lot of early episodes take themselves too seriously, and often try to make a point but completely miss the mark.

    You’ll probably like the new season with Gatwa though, a lot of it is very campy (sometimes to a fault IMO), with some amazing more grounded episodes mixed in.

    You can mostly skip to the new season. The only thing you need to know is:

    Spoilers

    Galifrey is destroyed again by the master, who reveals that the doctor isn’t a time lord, but an unknown species from another dimension that the time lords stole regeneration from.
