We were allowed to build small groups of 2-3 people and choose our own song. We went with “Another brick in the wall”

They played on the first big festival I ever visited. Heavy rain, just before they entered the stage but they managed to keep us warm and moving :D

This is nice! Thanks, I didn’t know them. But the mood is very different.

For me its the flute. Those Flogging Molly intros just make you want to move and have a good time
- Comment on Why are so many games in certain genres all so samey in the places they really should not be? 2 weeks ago:
For me there are two different kinds of cheap: There’s lots budget but creative use of tools cheap. I’ve seen some awesome results coming from this.
And then there’s “I wanted to publish fast and maximize profit” cheap. Never seen something good coming from this.And also reusing stuff is totally fine, if it’s actually the right fit. Some titles still feel different to me. E.g. Don’t starve (together) wasn’t that early to the survival craft party and I also think it’s not a very outstanding title as in being innovative gameplay wise but I just love it.
It has a very specific charm and it just makes me feel like this game wasn’t created to earn as much money as possible but to make an idea come true.Or when I think of the early Harvest Moon Games that look quite boring and repetitive compared to newer comparable titles. They still have some appeal to me. They feel authentic.
While the newer games feel more sloppish and generic like a joke that was told a thousand times already. They look even worse compared to titles like Stardew Valley that actually tried to develop the existing ideas of the genre slightly further instead of just regenerating them in different styles. While it still relys heavily on existing ideas and mechanics and extends them.It kind of boils down to the question whether the developer / author / whoever ideated the whole thing had to add anything of their own at all or if it’s just a remix of existing things.
I mean, you can even sell the same game over and over by just changing the number on the tile… looking at you fifa

IMHO:
It feels like that, because that’s what it is. There were a few awesome titles in the genre and as soon as AAA (and some cheap ass pseudo indie developers) realize people love them, they try to jump on the train by ripping off the successful game.They don’t want to create something original, they just want a piece of the pie, and that’s what shows.
You can see the same shit happening in deck building rogue likes. E. g. Slay the spire and Balatro were creative and new but also obviously not made to just grab some cash. Meanwhile the market is now flooded with tons of similar working and / or looking games that are just boring rip offs. Not a single original thought went into these games.

How… reassuring… did she ever tell you what that was about?
- Comment on “Tf???” 3 weeks ago:
They just want to see freaky stuff. E. g. my appendix ruptured when I was 15 and it took my mother a few days to realize I’m not faking. So I have a bunch of scars, some parts are missing and other’s just look a bit off. Nothing I don’t know or can’t live with.
But when they call their fully grown colleagues to look at THAT. That’s creepy. That’s not good.

It’s always a great feeling when a doctor looks at something from you and then calls their colleagues to look as well…

There is a German joke with a similar punchline:
There’s a grandma sitting behind a bus driver and offering him some nuts every know and then. After a while the driver wants to know if she doesn’t want any herself. And then she explains: “you know: I love these bonbons so much, but I can’t chew the nuts anymore. So I gave them to you” - Comment on No Such Thing 4 weeks ago:

A lot more Germans knew about the concentration camps than just the ones directly involved in it. People didn’t want to know and kept looking away or didn’t care for the people they believed were scum.

I’m thankful I’m not forced to use it. Though I have to admit that I use Claude as an alternative to stack overflow with the same level of trust in the results :D

Was working at night with my mother, when I was a teen. We were out delivering newspapers and magazines to shops, gas stations, … when we saw a huge mass at the side of the street to ahead. Coming closer we realized it was a horde of cows, gathered around a bus stop sign. It was wild and we had a hard time to convince the police we’re not on drugs when we called them (a roaming horde of dark cows at night is definitely a road hazard they have to take care of).

That’s actually pretty cool. But I feel like sharing it with the international community may not be ideal. You may want to share with the Zocken community on feddit.org

The cocktail that obviously took some love for detail to prepare is what turns this from sad / desperate to really fucking cool. Though some shade would be great, but I guess that’s the way of the redneck ¯_(ツ)_/¯

- Comment on Can you hide wired conversations behind a language barrier? 2 months ago:
Heavy dialects could be an option to make it at least more difficult for those who listen. My step father is from Southern Germany and speaks a moderate Swabian dialect making it difficult for people in mid Germany to understand everything he says even though the basically speak the same language.
He once had car issues in Hesse and wanted to ask the mechanic if it’s okay to leave his car where it’s currently parked. What he said was “Ka’ i den do stong long?”, the generic German equivalent would be “Kann ich den da stehen lassen?”.
Assuming both people know the dialect and are able to talk it fast it may be pretty difficult for a third party to understand fast enough what’s going on. - Comment on Anon loves marvel movies 3 months ago:
