Overwatch heralded the death of the genre, after which (almost) every FPS release has been a casual shooter.
- Comment on Secret courts' still handing out warrants for energy firms to break into homes 1 month ago:
This is about debt-collection for unpaid bills. According to the article, it’s clearly a broken system that punishes the most vulnerable in society, but still, the headline is an inflammatory (and clickbait) way to present that.

Use some isopropyl alcohol to clean it and you don’t have to worry about anything getting wet and shorting. IPA is really good at removing the greasy smudges from the things we fondle.

I was expecting it to be match-fixing.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
I don’t disagree. It would require manual labelling by a group of people with enough patience and understanding of gaming to be able to reliably label ~60 new games every day. I’d have thought that the Steam community was large enough to achieve this though.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
I think this statistic would be more interesting if it filtered out all of the blatant cash-grab, asset-flip, AI generated shit that makes up a large portion of new releases.
Is it 19,000 releases with 10,000 actual sincere efforts at making a game, or 19,000 releases with 1,000 actual games.
And what’s the average number of reviews for actual games versus garbage?

- Comment on Andrew Windsor could face private prosecution, Republic says 3 months ago:
They put “Republic” in the headline as if we all just know what that refers to.
Per wikipedia:
Republic is a British republican pressure group advocating the replacement of the monarchy of the United Kingdom with a de jure parliamentary republic.[2] It is a member organisation of the Alliance of European Republican Movements and is the largest organisation solely campaigning for a republican constitution for Britain. Republic states that its mission is: “the replacement of hereditary monarchy with a democratic republican constitution”.[3] As of 2023, Carol Lever is the current chair of Republic, and Graham Smith is the chief executive.[4]

Peter Molyneux says Masters of Albion will make up for decades of ‘overpromising on things’
When you “make up” for something you’ve done, it’s not up to you to decide when you’ve “made up” for it. It’s up to the people that you crossed. What a presumptuous thing to say.
