You edited it! Put it back lol, doesn’t make sense to change the context like that :)

Ohhh you really got my hopes up there. I was like “There’s an Outer Wilds 2!?” all excited
But no. There’s only an Outer Worlds 2, sadly :(

That’s a valid opinion if you want ownership over everything else, fair.
But to blanket-label Game Pass as “shit” right from the start really isn’t fair to all those people for whom it was good value, and gave access to a lot of games they probably wouldn’t have been able to justify otherwise.
Personally it wasn’t for me, because I too don’t like subscriptions, but for some of my friends it was and I respect that.
- Comment on What's your test for people? 6 days ago:
It says the word ‘test’ in the post title, but if it helps I don’t think you need to take it so literally.
This isn’t “setting up” specific situations for people, but more like how people respond in normal everyday situations which you might consider to be either red flag or green flag behaviour.

The red route makes sense, because you’re connecting two of the most populous coastal areas of the US to each other.
If you compare this fictional map to an existing map of freight rail there are a lot of similarities

Plus, the whole point of a signature is that it’s easily reproducible by you, but not by other people.
Fast and fluid in a way that feels good to your hand is therefore the best signature, whereas something written slowly and precisely is easier to copy.

7 could actually be insanely overpowered depending on interpretation.
“Instantly see inside any open container”
What does it mean to “see” inside a container? If that just means “know what the contents are” (i.e nothing) then its limited, but if it means literally see, with remote sight, that’s much more useful, depending on this next parts…
What does “inside” mean? Does it mean we can only observe the interior, or can we look out from the interior as if out point of view occupies it? And given a glass cup can be considered an “empoty container”
At its most favourable, this power gives you the ability to remote surveil almost any location where a common everyday empty glass can be found.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 5 weeks ago:
Depends on what basis one is comparing it.
They are very different kinds of game, but they have to exist within the same economic realities.
Big studios seem to be working on the basis that just because they spend millions on a game, the game automatically becomes worth whatever price tag they want to slap on it - as if it’s a natural law that pumping in more money should directly translate to more revenue, without fail.
But it turns out the value of a game is what players perceive it to be worth, not what publishers hope its worth.
So it’s no surprise that indie games with amazing price-to-value ratios are seeing a surge, while big studios are struggling and don’t seem to have any ability to understand why their business model isn’t working.
Publishers are all shocked pikachu when their big budget games fall flat, but If people don’t want to buy your $80 game it’s not their fault - it’s your fault for not doing enough to justify the price tag.
So my message to studios isn’t “your games should be $20” (although sometimes they should) it’s “you should provide value that matches the price tag” - and Silksong over here just laid down the gauntlet as a game which looks set to deliver tonnes of value for relatively little cost.
- Comment on Hollow Knight: Silksong Will Release for Only $20, Release Times Revealed 5 weeks ago:
Take note AAA studios - this is how you do it.
With this pricing, Silksong may be the only game this year that I’ll actually purchase on release day.

Yes. If the planet was stationary in space, it wouldn’t work. Approach from ‘behind’ the planet and you get a boost, approach from the ‘front’ and you hit the brakes.

Lol, what a solution. Xrazy build. I wouldn’t worry too much about thermals. Even 80-90°C should be still acceptable, with the card only throttling above 90

So you needed SFF, the seller didn’t say theirs was SFF, and when it came it wasn’t SFF? Am I confused?

There’s no strict rule, either is acceptable.
“Write down the age of everyone here”
“Write down the ages of everyone here”
Equivalent, and both equally fine.
When we are talking about a group of two or more people either singular or plural work, and singular doesn’t imply they have to be the same either.
- Comment on Valve upgrade Steam's trailer player, and all it took was trawling through something like 400,000 videos 2 months ago:
For broadcasts yes. The autoplay for trailers keeps forgetting its setting constantly and there’s nothing you can do about all the embeds - which are really the worst offender.

If you’re the sort of person who likes to take in plenty of trailers when you’re hunting for new stuff to play on Steam […]
How about if I’m the sort of person who hates it when a bunch of shit starts autoplaying and there is a dev stream popping up and 10 embedded animated images in the product description?
Got any features for me?
