- Comment on Why We're Boycotting Xbox (and Maybe You Should Too) - People Make Games 1 day ago:
Xbox itself, sure. But this boycott is for the larger war crimes that Microsoft is abetting via surveillance, storage and AI informed bombing in palestine. The corporation itself isn’t rotting, but a thriving pumpkin patch.
So much so that nearly all businesses and much government run and rely on Windows. Which is why Xbox in particular is being targeted. It’s a strictly consumer product that is not strictly nessecary with substitutions available.

You’re right, tradition is a poor reason for anything, abundantly agree. However this is an incredibly pedantic topic to deploy that argument. You’re taking a trueism and applying it to something with such low stakes that it becomes a little silly.
Which is why you’re getting so much push back. You’re repeating the same truth, but that’s not relevant to why people are down voting and sassing ya.

It’s fiction, not reality. I agree its a lot, I looked away a bit, but ya don’t have to be judgemental when no one was ACTUALLY hurt.
- Comment on ELI5 why I logically understand McDonald's food is low quality and bad for me but I crave it like crack? 2 weeks ago:
Because sugar, fat and salt in those quantities are literally addictive. Our human/monkey brains were wired for survival, not overall health. Eating a large source of those three would’ve been a massive help in surviving winter when our next meal wouldn’t be guaranteed.

Well that was fascinating! Ty for the interesting read.

Gawwdan preventing rebinding is so annoying! Or it’s monkey paw wish cousin, letting you rebinding but the on-screen prompts are hard coded to display the default key.
In a simmiliar accessibility vein, I’m hard of hearing so when a game has no option for subtitles then at best I catch 1/3rd of the story.

and every cunt with a “he/him” or “she/her” in twitter bio that doesnt need it.
🙄
Prounon stolen valor isn’t a thing. And yelling at folk trying to gatekeep it as such is far more harmful to our community than any amount of “virtue signaling” from those you deem unworthy.

And this right here is a great reason to buy anything else other than pre-order GTA6.

Apart from that yeah, nothing changed, not even in the slightest. 🙄
So, lemme get this straight. You’re saying things have changed, which is why we need AI to repeat things people are already saying.
lol
- Comment on Same shit!!!!!!!!! 1 month ago:
Comparisons between MAGA, Nazis and confederacy have been prevalent for the last decade. Nothing about this is new, original or even interesting. AI slop saying true things is still low effort derivative AI slop. It’s not helpful in the slightest.

So I’m not inekn megs man, platfroer shooters are super not my thing. But after loving Paradise Killer I think detective games just might be, but I’ve never played any of the Ace games, any suggestions on which is a good entry point to the series? Is there an overall story of are the games self contained?
- Comment on Anon thinks there is a bicurious double standard 3 months ago:
I’m not. I’ve seen it happen many times to friends. Straight girls can make out drunk at a bar/party and that’s the end of it, but two men doing so are absolutely and irreversiblly gay.
It’s just yet another facet of gender enforcement and cishet normalization. Heck during the first season of Love is Blind an engaged couple breaks up because he admitted to his fiance that he has slept with men before. Not that reality TV relationships are real relationships, but there are vast majority of women who see it as a deal breaker.
Unless of course you’re just doubting anon talks to women at all. In which case, yeah… sus… 😒

- Comment on Reddit bought a giant ad in Paris, urging young french people to create an account 5 months ago:
Nah, this is one more landmark on the eventual enshitifcation of every platform. This is only happening because as company that is publicly traded, so someone at Reddit HQ realized that they could make more money off new french users than the cost of ads. So then they have a feduciary duty to do exactly that. Just like the reddit API-ocalypse, the finicial benefits data from every redditors mobile by being forced to use the offical app was determined to be more profitable than those that left.
Yay capitlism! Either Lemmy dies or it grows enough to do the same eventually.
- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 5 months ago:
I never gave HER a dime but it was the platform I met my eventual wife on. However unless you’re looking to meet other ladies, it’s probably not the app for you.
- Comment on ‘There Isn’t Much Sway Held by Past Success’: Baldur’s Gate 3 actors reveal it hasn’t boosted their careers 5 months ago:
That’s honestly heart breaking, all three gave exceptional performances. I hope in time people will understand the artistic merit in both voice acting and video games as a medium, but these people deserved to skyrocket into their own franchises.
- Comment on Why do Conservatives physically look evil? 5 months ago:
Sorry I want the world to be objectively a better place.
You’re reducing racism and bigotry to an unmuteable fact of their biology. If someone like MTG or Matt Gaetz did a 180 and started showing up at protests talking about the inner workings they was privy in the white house, introducing bills to protect trans folk and correctly identifying the genocide in gaza. Would they still be ugly?
If not, then it’s not an objective fact about their body, but their choices and opinions. If they are still ugly, then I guess their choices were born with their inherent “uglyness” and they no longer have responsibility for their choices.
At best, this idea white washes personal responsibility, at worst it’s a further divide that keeps MAGA fucks from listening to objective reality.
- Comment on Why do Conservatives physically look evil? 5 months ago:
You sound like a evangelical preacher yelling about “physically evil” minorities. Mark of Cain turning people black as sign of their “taint”, queer and trans folk not following gender norms looking “ridiculous” or why feminist are always “ugly women who are jealous”. This sort of rhetoric has long been used to justify all flavors of bigotry.
You believe what ya like. Obviously I can’t stop you, but there are better arguments to make and better uses of your energy.
- Comment on Why do Conservatives physically look evil? 5 months ago:
I’m thankful that I can see the enemy for what they are.
You literally can not. You’re just classing up ableism under the cover of resistance. These people provide more than enough reasons to hate and distrust themselves, you don’t have to pretend it’s physical defects. In fact, presenting this weak argument just makes them less likely for their supporters to be reached.
- Comment on Anon loves The Lord of the Rings 5 months ago:
A lot of folks are listing their favorite games but this is the one that truly fits. Unusually long development time by a studio known for DnD-simmiliar RPG games getting the next installation for the series that defined the genre. Cast voice actors for several years, ones that are still playing their characters on a variety of platforms. And just chock filled references, in-jokes, and faithful updates on old characters.
Everyone involved with it clearly loved what they were doing.

WARNING : Playing excellent, well told, thought provoking puzzle games about AI will make you so much madder about the silly folk the “turned AI sentient” folk.
Great game, solid sequel too.

Oooh I was thinking of grabbing Steins. I know I watched the anime several years ago and enjoyed it, but only have hazy recollections of the plot. Doing the VN seems just enough same, just enough different to be fun.

Just finished Tyranny and Pilliars of eternity so I’m picking up the sequel Deadfire. Checked out the price history last week and seems like it’s regularly 75% off during seasonal sales so I’m pleased to see it at $10.

- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
Oh yes, without a doubt. What truly matters is equal power dynamics, I’d just generally speaking saying most 30s have a few relationships under their belt, know who they are and what they want.
But even that can go yuck sooooo quick. Like with a 30 and 80 year old, clearly one side has a fetish.
