  Science fiction, maybe?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are bots on lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s true. Tho, I’ve seen people who managed to get ChatGPT to output in “uwu/cringe”, so I’m still not going to let my guard down if I see something that doesn’t have good spelling and grammar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are bots on lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m hoping it’s not the case here on Lemmy.

  I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, because a lot of us are ESL speakers from different parts of the world, so we might say things in a way that sounds strange or “unnatural” to native English-speakers.

  As others said, AI is not proper for this. Having interiors is strictly a human thing, and companies not wanting to invest in it. There should be lore, coherence with the exterior, items, assets. Many things AI is just not good at.

  In the days of Fallout 3, there was a great mod that added interiors to many buildings in the game. It was a lot of effort, and very limited. And back then modding was a hobby, so not a lot of people made donations to keep it going.

  At the very least, there should be a way to contribute to building interiors in games with official modding support.

  I’m one of the dozen who enjoyed all three movies. The Animatrix is also pretty good and some lore.

  But with stuff like this, I always say: don’t rely on others’ opinions. Liking or disliking a movie/show/book/game/etc. is entirely subjective.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  All my life, and I don’t plan on having any relationships ever. Not interested.

  The why is a bit complex. I’m physically disabled, and by now I’m starting to have trouble with basic stuff like showering and even going to the bathroom. One day, I’ll require assistance for those things, and not at old age. I don’t want to subject that on anyone (and I honestly doubt anyone would want to do it from day one either).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there really no stupid questions?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course, you’re just asking questions! /s

  Every single one I’ve seen from you is pushing some agenda. I’m honestly surprised it’s taken this long for Lemmy to catch on.

  I wouldn’t say we’re awesome for being leftist, we clearly can be as shitty as anyone else, but we’re supposed to have the belief that it’s okay to be different, to have different ideas, and so on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, I saw it once, spent a minute figuring out it’s the “th” sound and learned something new that day. Every time I see them, I know how to read it.

  It’s not that big a deal.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are people using the "þ" character?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It doesn’t make a ton of sense. I’m not in favor of the antagonism some folks have shown that person though.

  Agreed. That’s one aspect of small communities I don’t like, how people will pick on anyone who has some difference. Lemmy leans left mostly, one would think we’re above that sort of exclusion. 🤷🏻‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition - Reveal Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wow, this is lazy. I wanted FO3 to get a remaster, not this. It doesn’t even look different. The game currently runs pretty well on Linux. I played it last year with no issues. I’m generally not against remasters and remakes, but only when there’s obvious improvements or extra stuff. This is just the same game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam News - A new way to discover new & upcoming games: Personal Calendar⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It affected less than a hundred games since 2015, and Valve discovered it in late 2024, and sent an email to the affected developers. One of them made a reddit thread, which is what most people reference.

  However, the dev that went public ended up being a bit weird, because the game had been in Early Access for 10 years, and at the time of release it was nowhere near what had been promised. They also sold 100k copies over the years, but apparently not selling a thousand on day one was too bad. Never mind that they didn’t seem to have a community, done any sort of marketing, or I don’t know, use itchio? They decided to abandon the game, and start a new project. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Reminds me of the Stranded Deep devs, so I’m not sympathetic at all.

  SteamDB keeps track of prices. You can use their browser extension to see the historical lows in a game’s Steam page.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why would I buy this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve always wondered what all the CoD or Battlefield games have that’s different between the versions? 😅 Because to me it’s just a bunch of people running around shooting each other in the exact same way. I can’t, at a glance, tell you which game or version it is, if I stumble upon someone playing it.

  Same with the football, basketball, and American football games. Which version is it? Have the rules of the sport changed between years? 😂 Who knows!

  On the other hand, I love survival crafting games, and with the indies you rarely tell them apart because they all look the same. 😂 So I shouldn’t speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does Coke Zero taste different in the UK vs. the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like I’m the only one who understood your question, and sadly I don’t live in either country, so I can’t say.

  I do recall that when I switched from Diet Coke to Coke Zero (for some reason there was a shortage of Diet but not Zero), it took me a while to get used to it because Zero tastes way sweeter.

  Also, shout out to the female player character version of the game: Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else disappointed by Steam's current Next Fest?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Or AI made lore? Dafuq is that?!

  I’ve seen a few videos of that, and it’s generally lauded by people who have no grasp of storytelling. They think lore is a synonym of story, rather than the “decoration” of a story. It reeks of laziness.
