- Comment on Warhammer 40,000 Maker Games Workshop Is Doing So Well It’s Giving $27 Million to Its Staff 1 day ago:
It is like risk but cooler! And honestly you don’t need a 2k point meta army to start with. For the price of two or three $60 video games (guess I have to preface that now) you can have enough models for you and a friend to have an absolute blast.

Logo looks a lot like metas doesn’t it? Like on first glance at the thumbnail I thought Facebook was launching a browser.

No problem. I had a similar reaction “wait isn’t that Welles” and went googling myself. I just had a head start on you since I recognized him.

- Comment on A year later, Apple Vision Pro owners say they regret buying the $3,500 headset - "It's just collecting dust" 5 days ago:
I agree with the glasses component. This tech will be so cool once it can integrate with what I already wear daily. Just like the watch.

I don’t think these were released with the goal of relevance. I think they were released for “innovators” to get their hands on and to gage interest for broader implementation.
Basic product lifecycle like I don’t even think these are for the “early adopters” these are for the “innovators” or what ever the first part of product lifecycle is.

I’ve always wanted to get into XI I wish it didn’t still have such an expensive sub.

- Comment on Tory Lanez: Rapper stabbed 14 times in prison California prison 1 week ago:
I had no idea Lanez was as in jail. He had so many bangers I just figured he was taking a break.
Lanez, whose legal name is Daystar Peterson, is serving a 10-year prison sentence for shooting fellow musician Megan Thee Stallion in 2020.
How the hell did I miss this news cycle.

I believe these guys have a show in Vegas now.
- Comment on Codemasters confirms layoffs as EA-owned studio shifts focus away from beloved rally games 3 weeks ago:
Honestly they should have never been yearly releases. Of course everyone is burnt out on them, and nothing innovate has happened in the rally codemaster games in years. I’m sad this is happening but it’s definitely mismanagement.
- Comment on Is The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion still fun for a first-time player in 2025? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah I definitely remember oblivion gates being a drag, but I only ever did the main campaign on one character so I never bothered with them on subsequent plays. Anyone know if the new version modifies the gates at all?
- Comment on Meta axes VR game developers amid $4.97 billion Reality Labs loss 4 weeks ago:
I mean we will never know but 5billion is a lot no one else is going to throw this much to VR. Gaben will buy another Yacht before valve spends this much. Apple will never care about gaming. Microsoft and google both develop as though they can’t focus on any project.
Sony has a nice headset, but it’s more of a whatever than a serious evolution of the industry.
Itch.io hosts some amazing game jams, and maybe we will see Godot and Unreal take up some slack but not five billion dollars worth.
- Comment on Meta axes VR game developers amid $4.97 billion Reality Labs loss 4 weeks ago:
I know people don’t like Zuck and meta in general. But flooding VR with money was a good thing for the medium. Lots of small teams and independents who otherwise couldn’t have developed for VR got to.

This cracked me up. Like I know the post is framed as a “war on Christian’s” thing but the idea that rugrats tackled these themes is just funny to me.
- Comment on Adult gamers of Lemmy how do you find time to game without being exhausted of the screen? 1 month ago:
It’s like the circle of life. Children start with console, move on to PC, return to console. Then LAN parties in the nursing home. I’ll touch back if I can ever afford to retire and let yall know.

Damn. Yeah that sounds good. Thanks for the heads up.
- Comment on Adult gamers of Lemmy how do you find time to game without being exhausted of the screen? 1 month ago:
I play on console mostly these days.
- Comment on [DCSS] I did it! I touched the Orb... 1 month ago:
Insane congrats. I love DCsS and haven’t touched it in a few months. Didn’t know they reworked Mahleb, maybe you’ve given me some encouragement to play.
I haven’t won in a while.

- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 hands-on reveals a proper generational upgrade, though its biggest new idea remains unproven 1 month ago:
Idk about your opinion on a touch screen. For both my switch and my steam deck, over 99% of their usage has been docked. A touch screen doesn’t do anything for gamers like me. I do use a keyboard and mouse very often with my deck too.
That said the joycon “mouse” looks way too small and uncomfortable.

Actually from the prices I’ve seen online they are about 5 /10 dollars more than digital versions.

So strange to me to do a prequel on something that although “loosely” is based on a true story?

- Comment on Roblox CEO tells parents that “if you're not comfortable, don't let your kids be on Roblox”. 2 months ago:
Terrible abusive parents shouldn’t be forced to have children they don’t want or need isn’t eugenics. Shitty people should know their options and we should celebrate abortion as a moral victory. So much less suffering in the world when unwanted children don’t have to suffer for 18 years.
- Comment on Roblox CEO tells parents that “if you're not comfortable, don't let your kids be on Roblox”. 2 months ago:
Honestly the answer is to punish bad parents. Not all of society and reasonable families. There is no orphan crushing machine, it’s people who shouldn’t be parents not being educated in why they shouldn’t. And abortion being turned into something political instead of the best choice for 99% of pregnant persons.
- Comment on Roblox CEO tells parents that “if you're not comfortable, don't let your kids be on Roblox”. 2 months ago:
Since you’re an idiot I’ll break this one down for you. Parents job = protect children. Governments job is to work for the citizens a majority of which are workers.
- Comment on Roblox CEO tells parents that “if you're not comfortable, don't let your kids be on Roblox”. 2 months ago:
Literally this shit applies to everything targeted to kids. It’s why advertising to them should be not allowed. That’s never going to happen though.
In the end it’s the parents responsibility to raise kids with a mediocre amount of media literacy to know what is and isn’t predatory.
