The fact that this says “Like Scoob where did you go?” instead of “Like Scooby-doo, where are you?” feels like a missed opportunity.

- Comment on LibreWolf remains AI-free! 2 weeks ago:
LibreWolf default settings are kind of annoying for someone who lives alone and no one else has physical access to their desktop. I don’t need to be logged out of everything and have my history wiped every time.
I finally tried LibreWolf today and gave up after about an hour of getting annoyed that my less-secure preferences wouldn’t stick and stay. I don’t know, maybe I’m not the target audience, but was finally thinking of giving a Firefox fork a shot and it mostly just annoyed me because I am not necessarily looking for something so ultra secure that it’s deleting all the history and shit every time the browser closes.

Thanks for doing this and being so kind as to spread joy to fellow Lemmings!
I don’t actually want any of these games, the ones I want I already have, I just wanted to say thank you for being giving.
- Comment on Changing the language of “Hogwarts Legacy” 2 weeks ago:
That’s a fair take. I deleted it promptly after playing, but anyone who is willing to fund empress’s insanity is a fool anyway. Yet, sadly, a whole lot of fools out there.
- Comment on Changing the language of “Hogwarts Legacy” 2 weeks ago:
A few things here:
-
I personally think that interacting with anything related to Harry Potter continues to give it cultural dominance and longevity, so even if you aren’t personally spending money to support the giant piece of shit that is JK Rowling, you’re helping it stay relevant enough to keep making that bigot of a bitch money.
-
It can also be argued that since Epic made a deal for giving the game away, that the money has already been paid to Rowling, whether you grab the game for free or not. The fewer people who grab the free copy, the less wise of an investment it will be seen as by Epic’s beancounters. This also ties back into the first point of the more people taking the free copy is giving Harry Potter more cultural dominance and longevity.
-
I pirated this game when it came out specifically I could play it and write about how bad it was in terms of gameplay, story, and game design. I don’t feel like re-writing a full on review here, but I’ll just say it: It’s a bad fucking game and the only reason people have given it as much attention as it has gotten is the association with Harry Potter. If this had been an original property with no connection to the HP series with similar gameplay and story it would have been a clusterfuck of a failure on release.
Anyway I’ll shut up now but fuck Harry Potter, the only thing Harry Potter related I’ll accept anymore is Wizard People, Dear Reader, because it’s a parody.
