- Comment on Cubic Odyssey announced as a fusion of Minecraft and No Man's Sky 3 days ago:
Nms absolutely doesn’t hit the way Minecraft does, and it isn’t the blocks. Minecraft allows for much more free expression with what you build than NMS does (from what little I’ve played of NMS).
- Comment on Minecraft gets new pigs, wildflowers and ambient features in the latest Beta 6 days ago:
… They didn’t already have the leaf thing? Whatever, I’m not particularly interested in the update (or snapshot, i suppose), but it looks like they are filling out small details they’ve ignored or never even thought of, which is a good thing. I’d rather have fine detail than a half assed new system that’s disconnected from everything.
- Comment on School shooting lawsuit reveals that Black Ops Cold War cost $700 million, the highest development cost yet reported by a publisher 1 week ago:
Fucking how?
- Comment on These dames wanting inclusivity 3 weeks ago:
I mean, you are the one that freaks out when someone mentions the word incel, so I’m thinking that applies to you more than me.
- Comment on These dames wanting inclusivity 3 weeks ago:
Incel bullshit

Nah that’s just pathetic, dude.

They are, but I’d be somewhat perturbed if my house suddenly filled with them

- Comment on Frostpunk creators cancel "Project 8" and lay off staff amid concerns that "narrative-driven, story-rich games" don't sell 4 weeks ago:
I’m willing to guess up to 3m has been sold across all platforms so far, but this is a major AAA game that was being developed for a full decade, there is no way in hell they didn’t spend multiple hundreds of millions on it. And those are very low numbers besides. Most big titles sell more than that faster than davg has.

Because that’s literally what it is. Business courses are much closer to church sermons than actual classes. They don’t apply logic to things, they simply consult their already established beliefs for the path forward.

Aren’t those awful numbers? Like, a big successful AAA grant does way more than 1.5mil in it’s first week. If interest was there they’d be over 3mil by now.
- Comment on After much talk of an acquisition, Sony and FromSoftware parent Kadokawa announce "strategic alliance" 4 weeks ago:
It’s not the worst case scenario, but it’s still not good news for multiple industries.

Say less, I’m in.
- Comment on Core Keeper developer announced KYORA that looks suspiciously like Terraria where "every pixel is yours to shape" 5 weeks ago:
I’ve seen a few terraria likes but none have reached those vaunted heights, sadly

Different Matt Walsh, holy hell that guy has an unfortunate name.
- Comment on This weird AI-generated engagement bait 5 weeks ago:
Now that is true horror.
- Comment on It's always the ones you least suspect 5 weeks ago:
Luigi is a good person, so obviously he’d be the one to kill a monster
- Comment on Funko issue a statement about the itch.io take-down, while also apparently calling itch founder's mom 5 weeks ago:
What in the god damn? That’s seriously insane, hopefully funko takes some kind of hit.
- Comment on Dread toy-peddler Funko Pop gets cool, handsome Itch.io taken offline via dodgy "AI-powered" brand protection 5 weeks ago:
Man, funko needs to sink. That low quality trash does nothing but fuck up the environment when people inevitably toss it.
- Comment on I don't have a purpose in life and feel like a robot. This cannot be good for my mental health, but I don't know how or what to change. How do I change? 5 weeks ago:
If it makes you feel better, most people have no idea what they actually want and just follow whatever has been put in front of them.
- Comment on The next Dragon Age game might be another "reinvention", say BioWare, drawing parallels with Final Fantasy 1 month ago:
“we have no idea what we are doing” and “we don’t want to fuck up this badly again” but with more ego assuaging is what I’m hearing here.
- Comment on You’ve got ten days to pick up the original Warcraft I & II from GOG before Blizzard pull them, but GOG will support their preservation forever 1 month ago:
Eh, they weren’t that great.
- Comment on Project Zomboid set for a massive update that should get a Beta before Christmas 1 month ago:
The definitive zombie game, cataclysm dark days ahead. In my latest game i built a battle train.
- Comment on Nintendo is targeting members of a popular Switch piracy subreddit | VGC 1 month ago:
So this latest wave of pointless attacks is to try to destroy the competition of their next console, yeah?
- Comment on No Man's Sky Head Claims Team Isn't Close To Being Done With Game's Content 1 month ago:
Idk, old Minecraft generation was excellent. All they really needed to do was make it literally deeper/taller and make the biomes wider. The extreme and weird landscapes were rewarding to explore on their own back then. Imo developers just need to be comfortable letting interesting landscapes from instead of boring, uniform ones like NMS does. The novelty would eventually wear off, sure, but it’d last a lot longer.
And community worlds is an excellent idea. Having custom planets, or hell even just things players have made in their games, show up would add a lot to any game like this.
- Comment on Riot Games is cracking down on players’ off-platform conduct 1 month ago:
On the one hand, i fully believe they should be able to target players they know are a problem without them strictly breaking TOS, but i tend not to completely trust corpos. Not that i care about riot games anyway.

I’m more of a cataclysm gal than zomboid, but that looks like a great update
