  What about gestures everywhere suggests that I should ever fully trust a company?

  I mean, that’s the point of the show… Their problems are ridiculous and petty, the entire point is to show what rich people think problems are

  The office had to happen to open the door for the genre to the general public. So I say thanks to it, we got the more refined parks and rec. Watching the office back in the day was hilarious, but now it’s clear that it only walked so parks and rec could run.

  Chalet Girl - Solid B level romcom with Bill Nighy, Ed Westwick, and Felicity Jones. Story is kinda plain, but it’s one of my go to movies to cheer me up

  Don’t go back. Geralt’s relationship is… complicated. Personally I’m a Yennifer fan, mostly because of Geralt’s history with Triss. Triss knew that Geralt’s memory was gone a while back and took advantage of that, even though she knew that Geralt really was with Yennifer. So… I was always salty.

  That being said, this is a game I recommend playing again someday. So just choose Triss next time. Enjoy Yenn, IMO they compliment each other well vs Triss who is just obsessed. Triss’ relationship isn’t as healthy

  Is it undecipherable? They link it, there’s a page that says issue, you click “new issue”. You’re reporting a bug or feature request, describe it, click submit.

  It’s important to keep a single list of issues. These are just guys developing, they don’t have project managers to go and read through forum posts to translate items into issues and give them a priority.

  If going through those few steps is too much hassle, then I say it probably wasn’t that important or an issue to begin with.

  If that is what you’re intending then it is not coming off that way.

  Guh gotta keep milking it don’t they. My local theater is rearranging Knightley’s version and I’m going to that, no interest in seeing a remake on Netflix.

  Fallout, the last of us? Stuck close to the games’ source material and respected current and new fans.

  Halo and borderlands both ignored current fans and diverted from the source material.

  Could there be a correlation? Oh, no just covid

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Adult gamers of Lemmy how do you find time to game without being exhausted of the screen?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t mind sitting at a desk, but some care tips.

  • Stand up at least once an hour, even just to get coffee, go to the bathroom.
  • Always have a (full) bottle of water with you. If it’s there, you’ll drink it, you won’t even notice it. Keep it in your eyeline
  • Eyedrops. If you’re in an office job, you need eyedrops. If you game on top of that you need them more. I actually dried out my eyes from coding and gaming too much, it’s very easy to do. Talk to your eye doctor, get some artificial tears. Look away from the screen every 20 minutes or so and just blink.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but it’s always been a license. I’ve never been unaware of that, it’s only now that publishers are starting to abuse that fact that they’re making it obvious. Again, I’ve never been burned by valve, so I trust them. Maybe that’ll change some day, but for now, that’s why they’re doing better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s because valve has always been transparent about it. They’ve also put in place a lot of protections for gamers, which is why I trust their store. Their stuff is also a license, but I have yet to see something pulled out of my inventory. Actually there was a game once, and it was a Ubisoft game now that I think of it. I believe that’s when they put in more protections.

  Ubisoft wants to make everything cloud dependent and then want us to be happy that we can’t play our games anymore. They lost all of my trust. If it’s not a purchase, then it’s a rental in my eyes, and I’d never pay more than $20 for a rental.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Developer of 'non-consensual sex' game withdraws it from Steam after bans in the UK, Canada, and Australia⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s an interesting debate. One that I will not touch with ten foot pole because I do not have the knowledge to say which is right, but it’s interesting.

  Is it better for people with these uh, interests, to have artificial content if it satisfies their needs? As in, for non consensual the vast majority of people would think it’s revolting, and that it should go. We want no part of it in society. But here’s the rub. What if the alternative is actually committing the crime? By offering an alternative that is morally questionable could it reduce the actual crime from happening?

  Same thing with AI generated CSAM. utterly revolting. Think it should be purged. But, some psychologists argue that it would satisfy the desires of some of them, and it could reduce actual children from being harmed. Some say it could make the urge worse but some say it could prevent the real thing from happening

  I don’t have the training or knowledge to say this or that, but it’s interesting

  Oh my god my friends and I were PISSED. The game just ended! You made it through the third age! Congrats! Game ends. We were just entering into a major war and had a strategy planned out, we were moving troops then it was just over.

  No more one more turn, no more alternate victory conditions, just done. Very unsatisfying end, and that was about 4 days of play to get there. Really soured us all

  I finally have a semi decent setup at home where it’s quiet, I can fully envelope myself in the movie, and I have better snacks. I don’t know why I would want to go out to an AMC or some other cheap theater to have a worse experience.

  Now, there is a local theater who focuses on actual films I go to, like I saw the Brutalist there, but they actually enforce the rules, and they aren’t going to show the new spiderman. So it’s actually a pleasant experience
