That cuts into Bethesda’s paid re-release.

That goodwill can change in an instant, especially if they are releasing a competing product, and especially if the legal team gets in the loop rather than the development staff.

The same people made a 500-cigarette version because of that Orville meme.
- Comment on Solid voting advice 2 weeks ago:
Generally no. Bulletproof glass is thick as hell and requires extensive modification to the door, plus it often precludes being able to roll the window down.
Some might opt for kevlar panelling in the door. Anything heavier goes back to “extensive modification” and turns an $80k cruiser into a $400k cruiser.
They buy MRAPs from the DoD on the cheap for armored vehicles.

Clearly a stone.

Man I miss 2012 (or whenever it was) and the “Ron Paul will make anime real” memes.
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 3 weeks ago:
I started Monster Hunter with 4U on the 3DS. After World, Rise, and now Wilds, I have a hard time justifying crumpling my hands into a pretzel to play the old games on portable. The movesets are comparatively barebones, and there’s a lot of tedium and jank that the new games stripped away. Veterans will tell you that’s the real Monster Hunter and the new games are infantilized arcade games, but whatever. I play games to have fun, not bang my head against a wall.
- Comment on How it feels wandering into different bubbles sometimes 4 weeks ago:
I find they’re usually just cowards afraid to stand both feet on anything, and/or self-aware of their ignorance so they give the “both-sides” shpheal because it sounds pithy and intelligent.

It didn’t matter if a German citizen supported the Third Reich or didn’t care and just wanted to run his bakery. Bombs still fell on his town, foreign troops still fought through his streets. This shit affects you whether or not you have the intelligence to comprehend it or the courage to confront it.
- Comment on This queue for the new swasticar 5 weeks ago:
That is a lot of manpower that could be used elsewhere, were they actually a public service.
- Comment on Killing Floor 3 Delayed (With no new release date) 5 weeks ago:
I think 2 is technically the better game, but it is marred by its mtx and really half-assed support after the studio got shaken up.
I honestly have no interest in the 100% future setting of KF3. I like the weapons modeled after real ones, not the LED schlock of the HMtech or whatever.

Saudi Arabia-owned Scopely Inc.
Are they buying it for the business opportunity or the massive amounts of geolocation data to assist in kidnapping and murdering women and dissidents around the world?

Rumors are that, aside from being a major engine overhaul, they’re looking to do a soft reset for R6Siege to

Referencing the Vaporeon copypasta in a school assignment is…definitely a strategy.

If you can settle into the Party-enforced censorship. A lot of people will get banned if they keep interacting the same way they do on Western social media.

What sort of work you do in those boots, out of curiosity? I wouldn’t have made that bet when I was a machine operator, those shits were soaked in coolant with stainless steel chips embedded everywhere.
- Comment on B5A9FC 5 months ago:
I think the seeming lack of bad will against him stems from the fact that he didn’t kill anyone but himself. Just a righteous (or rather self-righteous) rampage of property damage.
…except that he absolutely intended to kill people considering the arsenal of firearms and shooting ports in his contraption.

Straight to Leavenworth.
What is with people and self-snitching? Do they need attention that much?

You can get surprisingly far by making people laugh.

There are fan projects like 2009scape that you can play for free.

Get on the grindset, steal consumer electronics and catalytic converters from your own family.

I feel like there’s a followup with that fucking dragon as the giant hologram, and I’m trying not to imagine it.

- Comment on Loyalty 9 months ago:
There’s some subtle differences in the frame shape and other things that I’m too dumb to articulate. The only marks I can see are import marks from “CAI” - Century International Arms, which would be strange to see on a USGI 1911.
I think this model is a Star BM, and surplus retailers were hocking these things for ~$250-300, about 6/7 years ago. I almost got one but decided against it.
- Comment on Loyalty 9 months ago:
It’s some Star model pistol, looks like a 1911 but not quite, and in 9mm.

A cheap springer airsoft pistol works pretty good in my experience
- Comment on Today, it has been 6 years since The Elder Scrolls 6 teaser 10 months ago:
The only thing Bethesda is motivated to do, frothing, absolutely chomping at the bit, is figure out a way to successfully monetize modded content.
- Comment on Oh no, anarchists! 11 months ago:
My take is that it’s a joke of “what anarchists think they do” as the top comic vs “what anarchists actually do” as the dilapidated trap house.
I’m not an anarchist but something tells me that going to Lemmy to shit on anarchists wouldn’t be well-received.
