Must be why you never see signs at intersections I guess. Or maybe you capture some people with nothing else to do but read your sign.

You could try stopping at the red light.

The first picture could be a meme. There’s you hanging on at the end of your rope seemingly at the end of the world, and the game is telling you to Let Go twice.
Let go. Fall into the void. Let go.

Also got us here in Canada too.
- Comment on If online services (such as Netflix) only ever raise their prices, does that mean they offer less and less value for money as time passes? 2 weeks ago:
You could argue as long as content doesn’t increase. As you watch, the effective content that you will want to watch in the future will go down.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer 2 weeks ago:
I thought Ballmer’s peak was just a funny graph. I understand it a lot better now.

Unless the people praying are the problem. Then at least they stop and dk nothing for a little while.

Yes yes, that’s very interesting. But what do you think is going through an animal’s mind?
- Comment on As adults, do you still watch kids’ cartoons, either old or new? 3 weeks ago:
And there are episodes that are just beautiful works of art. The S3E18 episode of Bingo playing in the rain is just heartfelt to me.

I was thinking Hexen or Blood. Resident Evil?

If I saw that I’d appreciate it.
- Comment on Previewing the Framework Wireless Touchpad Keyboard 1 month ago:
There’s often a Function Lock key that makes it so you don’t need to press function to access the F keys. On my keyboard it is FN + ESC.
- Comment on State of Decay 3 lead says the game only existed in a Word document when its reveal trailer dropped 6 years ago: "We're not doing zombie animals" 2 months ago:
I also really like it and own 1 and 2, but I think the gameplay loop is just a bit too simplistic.

Sorry, best you can do is 2 out of 3.

No, pretty sure I haven’t played it, but the name rang a bell. Probably because alphabetically it shows up pretty early when you’re looking for games back on the ’ol warez listings.

There is an old game with the same name, just so you know. https://www.myabandonware.com/game/abaddon-bwy

Claptrap seems more like a Grok.
- Comment on Switch 2 demand appears to be flagging as Nintendo reportedly lowers production 2 months ago:
The sales taxes were not to be included in the final price so that companies don’t jack up the price of things to the next $x.99 amount. It’s to be shown separately. Whether that actually does anything, I’m not sure. But I got pretty good at estimating 14%.

Sounds tough, but fun if you know the game well.

I played Metal Gear 3 on PS2 back when it came out. I feel like I have almost no idea what you’re talking about in this post! What is a Fox Hound run? “With 9/20 injuries and 4 health segments lost.” This is also confusing to me.
I’m guessing this is the PC version based on the screenshots. Looks pretty nice!

I have this one 4th for top all time.

I guess my extensive block list might have something to do with it as well. Apparently I’m not missing much!

One of the top lemmy posts of all time is a warning not to buy Subnautica 2.

Oh boy! I love that adrenaline rush you get after executing a command and it takes a really long time that it makes you wonder “did I just delete something important?”. Not many other things can give you that tingly feeling. Glad you found a way to recover your stuff.
I’m gonna go install some backups today…

This is one group of developers who will get my purchase in early access. I normally don’t do that.

Ok, right off the bat the nested tooltips is a really cool system.
- Comment on Folk Emerging: stone age nomadic 4X strategy, demo out 3 months ago:
I’ve always loved the beginning of a Civ game, but kinda hated how bogged down the middle and late game get. So if this gives the feeling of early civ games, I’ll probably love it.

I’d do the same…
- Comment on Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC 3 months ago:
Partly because newly released games are buggy and unfinished and they can take a while before they’re stable and quality of life features fully in place.
I don’t want to pay to be a beta tester, and I especially don’t want to pay full price for that. I can wait a bit and get a better game for cheaper.
I’ve only bought a couple of games on early release or at release lately. Deep Rock Galactic Survivor because it had a demo I enjoyed, and Hades 2 because I trust that studio and Hades is one of my favourite games.
