  Overwatch. Got into it several years back, before it became Overwatch 2. Nice gameplay, balanced and diverse characters, I loved it

  Then comes realization thar matchmaking is fucked. Throwing someone who just installed the game into match between teams of players who have hundreds, if not thousands, hours in - that level of fucked

  Then comes realization Blizzard doesn’t give a fuck about lore they themselves built. WTF is these skins for Mercy that look like anime teenage girl? She is over forty, if I am not mistaken, and has seen tons of shit as battle medic - that level of not giving a fuck

  So… guess I am done with the game. I gave them years to come to their senses, but no more

  Damn that hurts. I hate how right you are, take my upvote

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Years for me. I spent years before realizing that I’m never getting a good matchmaker

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are people still fooled by this dumb quiz's?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  IQ test measures how good you are at passing IQ test :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can pets tell who's petting them without looking?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Cats and dogs - absolutely. Humans are smelly:)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And then get text summary of the conversation. Sign me up for alpha/beta/whatever test any day

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lol, lmao even.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like I’ve heard that before :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely not everyone :) I am bad at agriculture, even worse at raising animals, so computer it is for quite a long while from now. But I would really appreciate an opportunity to just sit by the sea and stare at it for days on end

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo reportedly gets even more obnoxious about patent law by taking a 'mods aren't real games' stance against a Dark Souls 3 mod that could invalidate its Palworld lawsuit⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, games are not real either, they require compilation/interpretation of source code /s

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Randy Pitchford Snaps Back at Borderlands 4 Criticism: 'Code Your Own Engine'⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol. I bet he has no idea how many people actually can do that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IF YOU TAKE ENOUGH YOU CAN SEE *THE PATTERN* BRO⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly this. Thank you for spelling it out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game addiction in teens likely stems from preexisting mental health issues⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Likely. We don’t know for sure. Come back for more later

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let's hear it, little lemmings.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  True, thanks for the heads-up

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let's hear it, little lemmings.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Really? Only one woman? Marie Curie is my choice

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ouch, did I completely forget that part. Yup, those cultures also must be made widely known

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn that is so good. Take my upvote!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol. That’s funny. Do it again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You also can fuck right off. Didn’t do much my ass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, fuck off with that bullshit. I don’t even have a desire to describe why and how exactly this way of thinking is crap

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Christians” also stole this land and genocided people who had lived here since long before they came. Those who don’t like this should return to where their forefathers came from, no?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You got me. I almost got really mad before realising this is shitpost community

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am saying it is about greed because it actually is, since I am yet to see a situation where the ultimate filter for supporting/dropping a client is NOT revenue from people using that client, and here I am talking specifically about companies making money on their product, so no open source, subsidised, hobby projects etc.

  Peole love to rant online

  They do, now try to catch precisely me doing this

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Expand this, please. I am sure I did not get you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It can be fixed: we can choose to produce less idiots and more caring people. You are right, of course, that it is not the only thing we should be doing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What should be fixed is people. The above described logic is true, it does really happen, and behind it is the idiot desire: to get more money. Not to make a better thing, not to make someone’s life better, not to build something worthwhile - in other words, nothing that could get me out of bed in the morning. When that’s the kind of desires fueling most companies and societies, all things will be going in all kinds of wrong ways

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it should also work without browser exactly as it does with a browser

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨W.XP⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What have you done, a cruel person. Also, take my upvote

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Now that is worth being scared of. Thank you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah… The abstract (sorry, will read article a bit later) is bunch of nonsense to me (in respect to what is written, no offense to you):

  • online experience commercially viable? The fuck they are talking about? Yeah, I know what is meant, but they would get fucking F in school for expressing thoughts in such a nonsensical way

  • protections against illegal content would not exist on private servers? Really? Like only your company’s servers can run that? What, you write them in machine code directly? Or is it all done manually? Anyhow, just release source code and it will be up to community to find a way to make it run

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Developer choice, ha-ha, very funny. I am not familiar with the industry and still feel safe to bet most of them just want to get enough money for doing what they can do without too much stress/disgust and also most of them don’t have a desire to see their work die just because some manager decided it is time to make some other games instead
