  Same applies to coffin companies. Not a single user came back to complain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People who live in hot climates, how do you deal with the heat?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the neat part, you don’t

  If not for clocks and all that industrial-corporate time management shit, people in the hotter parts of the world would probably be starting work ~5am, stopping around 12-15 (hottest time of the day) for lunch + a nap, then returning to their stuff and probably going to sleep at 23

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dino Crisis-esque horror Code Violet won't be coming to PC because the risk of "vulgar" mods isn't worth the "extra money"⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok, my first reaction was “fucking bullshit”, because no way that’s a real reason.

  Then I followed to this linked kotaku piece about Judgement game series, which talks about how Johnny’s, one of the biggest model/talent agencies in Japan, is worse than Nintendo in its “image protection”.

  So, while “we do not want anyone modding vulgar versions of the main character as well as other characters in the game” is still fucking bullshit, it might not actually come straight from the developer. If the game does relatively well, expect people to r34 the hell out of the characters anyway.

  Frankly, I’ve never touched the online part in GTA5 but I hear it’s quite successful.

  The microtransactions kept a very steady flow of hundreds of millions of dollars per quarter to Rockstar, so yeah, it’s absurdly successful

  Yeah, there were also some areas where you’d pretty much get fucked because you’d hear the digimon footsteps and, as soon as the screen faded back in, SURPRISE BATTLE. Your mon having to fight up to 3 enemies made things even harder

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Favorite retro games?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Battling against wild Digimon is a waste of time in the original game

  And required for certain evolutions. Not fun times heh

  Made a few mistakes on the way, and now you’re stuck with a Numemon, Sukamon, or another Digimon you don’t like? Just buy a Reset Radish to revert to an egg and try again (younger me would’ve loved that item).

  Back in my PSX days, I would “save up” the poop so that my 'mon would evolve straight from a baby into Sukamon on the first missed potty. Since that evolution halved all stats, and a baby’s stats were super low, it was easily a net positive as training a champion had much larger gains than a baby.

  providing a fix to the “bonus try” in the gym

  So now it’s possible to actually hit all marks? Because I couldn’t get it with fucking save states.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Favorite retro games?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn, I’ll have to give that a try. I’ve tried to get back into DW via emulation and man, the game is ruthless! The enemies you fight on the first screen (after beating Agumon) will wipe you if don’t bother training at least one entire day first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨With a TikTok Ban Looming, Users Flee to Chinese App ‘Red Note’⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh my god, this made me laugh!

  the majority of the content on the platform is photo slideshows coupled with text, which is why people often view it more as a competitor to Instagram than TikTok.

  Which is super ironic given that instagram changed everything to push short video content and compete with tiktok

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Marvel game, developed with the Chinese firm NetEase, ‘bans’ the words ‘free Taiwan’ and ‘Winnie-the-Pooh’⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Even “1989” is banned. So everyone born in 1989 will have to lie and say they were born either 1988 or 1990

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any games like Starfield?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Considering all the problems Bethesda had with simply making space work at all, I’m not surprised they didn’t even try to look into better games to copy from

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any games like Starfield?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Freelancer

  +1 for that. One of the best space sims, despite its age, and my first contact with actual zero-g dogfighting (boost, turn off engine, rotate ship to try and hit the enemy)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Canva charges you to make a circle⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dunno about op, but at my work it’s used because of its ease to share and have several people work on the same file

  Trade in for something slightly “worse” then?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon expects more⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Hell, even Divinity Original Sin 1 would put the storytelling and roleplaying aspects of Elder Scrolls on the floor.

  Then again, Bethesda learned nothing from FO76, which resulted in Starfield being what it is (devoid of meaning, story or anything other than space dungeons). I doubt they learned anything from it, either.

  It shows Lands of Lore 1 near the end of the video. I only skipped through, can’t sit and watch/listen properly, what with being at work :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the endgame when the rich have all the money?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Implying their train of thought can go beyond “MOAR MONEH”

  Also, they’d love to be slave owners, but since slavery was banned in most of the world, they have to skirt around with silly laws and whatnot, so wage-slavery works. Hell, it might even work better than actual slavery, since you can own all the stuff the wage-slave can buy and pay for!
