- Comment on Anon likes trains 2 weeks ago:
I’m a huge train and transit advocate and I try to take Amtrak every chance I get. But “tickets are cheaper” does not feel like a blanket statement we can make. Maybe on very specific, usually short legs, like Chicago to Milwaukee. Someone correct me if I’m wrong or there’s more nuance but once a trip goes past 3 or 5+ hour mark, the price seems to skyrocket past airfare.

It is completely normal to not want or enjoy driving. I don’t know where you live, but there are lots of areas and cities around the world where it easily possible to never own a car thanks to public transit and other readily available methods.
In the U.S. it can be tougher, but still possible. I live in Chicago and know plenty of people who are perfectly happy not owning a car. Personally I aspire to it, but my wife is a little car brained and it’s something we work ok.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends. 5 weeks ago:
There can be a tricky balance between building sequels or something new. Sometimes there is more you can do in a world, and people enjoy returning to worlds when there is good reason to.
I think the recent Doom reboot trilogy is a masterclass example. Not everyone enjoys each game, people often have different favorites. But the point is they’re all Doom and yet id Software did something unique with each one. New mechanics, new ways to play, pushing boundaries of what came before.
Of course, with Greek mythology, there is plenty more source material to explore and build on in a setting like Hades. They certainly hit a great formula to do it, and The People® were clamoring for it. But with SG’s established preferences for going after new ideas instead of sequels, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them do something else after Hades 2. Or who knows, maybe they’ll be able to grow enough to work on multiple games at once. That could come with its own challenges, but plenty of studios have done it.

I loved Bastion and Transistor and wished for sequels for both. But SG clearly seemed to prefer to not make sequels for its games all these years; to my knowledge, it has never made one. I’m not sure what or who changed at the company, but Hades 2 is an anomaly.
Has anyone interviewed someone at SG to ask sequel questions? If not, maybe someone will once H2 gets closer to officially shipping.

How would a sequel even work? Like I don’t want to spoil anything, but…

This is the answer. Might be a (new?) part of their agreement
I still like DDG and recommend it. But I also recently switched to Kagi, a paid search engine, and have been quite happy.

I’m using Voyager on iOS. When I tap through to any Meehan.org communities, they’re blank even though this post says they have hundreds or thousands of posts. Is something broken?

- Comment on Is it weird to juggle in the park? 1 month ago:
I live in Chicago near a park and every now and then I’ve seen someone juggling there. I’d say it’s out of the ordinary but not in a bad way; it’s unique. Still a fun hobby and you’re not hurting anyone, so go for it!

- Comment on Players Have Too Many Options to Spend $80 on a Video Game 2 months ago:
Just like other aspects of commerce, we’ll see what the market does. I hate to say it that way, but that’s simply how it works. Look at what’s happening to McDonalds right now. They’ve been raising prices for years, now tariffs have made things even worse, and people have responded accordingly and go to McDonalds less. Ball is in their court.
Another good example is the recent news about Beyoncé no longer filling major concert venues. I know there’s a lot of factors going on in these situations, but the truth at the core of it is that prices finally went up to a point where a not insignificant portion of her audience noped out of the transaction. Simple commerce.

It isn’t complicated: they’re racists and bigots. Their leaders figured out it’s much easier to control people when you unify them against a group of Others. People aren’t born racist, but they are tribal. And it’s easy to twist that affinity for one’s own group into evil and profit.
