- Comment on PSBLACKOUT (boycott of PlayStation) 3 days ago:
GameCube is still by far the best way to play Game Boy Advance on original hardware. Hacking it to play in 240p gives a wonderfully crisp image, and it’s a lot easier now than it used to be, especially now that we have alternatives to needing the Game Boy Player disk.
I used my hacked Game Boy Player to play through Golden Sun 1 and 2 on my 20" Ikegami PVM and it was a glorious experience.

Lol, we all know just how effective gamer boycotts have been in the past.

I just gave you an example. This is literally what happened with Monster Hunter Rise and Wilds (except the “thumbs” part, obviously).
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 4 days ago:
Because it doesn’t just end with an easy mode. It ends with Monster Hunter Rise and Wilds, and an entire series losing everything that made it unique all so it can keep chasing the lowest common denominator, who always start their erosion of a once-great series with “it’s too hard. :( Why are the devs so mean to the twelve people born without thumbs?!? Also you should totally remove all of the hunting aspects from the game because it’s super unfair to make me use my brain for more than half a second.”
So I’d rather keep the dwindling number of games I enjoy as they are, and y’all can go play something else, thank you very much.
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 4 days ago:
They already can enjoy them, just like you did. They can get good, like you apparently did, or they can play something else.
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 4 days ago:
All of your comments is this thread just scream “mad because bad”.
Git gud bruh.
Or don’t, and go play something else. But either way quit screeching about how entitled you think you are to force someone else to dumb down their art to your level.
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 4 days ago:
If non-serious people are the reason a game series I love gets worse, then they have affected me. It happened to Monster Hunter, and it’s happening to FromSoft games too.

I’ve done DS1 no pyromancy all bosses SL1, and I’m almost finished with my first DeS SL1 run currently. Not really interested in doing the other games, but I might do some sort of similar challenge run for Sekiro
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 5 days ago:
Yeah, the position of most FromSoft players in my experience is: “You don’t have to like the games, but you can’t just demand that they change for you.”
- Comment on Three developers' different philosophies on difficulty for their games 5 days ago:
You: “I don’t like Souls games.”
Them: “You may want to play a different game then.”
You: “Stop telling me my taste!”

Playing an anything goes run after a Soul Level 1 run.

You should probably spend a little more time listening, and a little less time stuffing your words into other people’s mouths.

?? No? Where did I say that?
I didn’t even say that men are discriminated against, only that women are more privileged than men are in education specifically.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Absolutely. Women have significantly more privilege in education than men do, especially when it comes to better access to higher education, and they have demonstrably better education outcomes as a result, and that’s not even counting preferential instruction in grade school.
For example, women are significantly more likely to receive scholarships and grants than men in undergrad.
Partially as a result of this lack of access, men have dropped to almost 40% of undergrad students, while women make up nearly 60%. Women also receive more doctorates than men, and almost twice as many Master’s degrees as men.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Having far more privilege in the education system ≠ smarter.

It may be because a large enough load could quickly block the driver’s left-side mirror.
Oooh, another thing is that a heavy enough load may imbalance the vehicle enough to make it unsafe on turns.
Anyone see anything else?

I mean, how did we get “Dick” from Richard?
By asking nicely.
- Comment on How did we get "bike" from "bicycle"? 1 month ago:
So the proposal is that bicycle was replaced by something completely etymologically unrelated? I think that’s unlikely.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I mean, ideally, sure. I think native ports will come as Linux market share continues to increase though, and Proton is an amazing tool both to have in the meantime and to drive the growth necessary for comparies to start catering to Linux gamers’ needs.

I love puns! I just thought this was a good opportunity to drop some interesting linguistic knowledge about prosody.
