My - very - limited searching was that it at least had a small preventative impact.

- Comment on What are the best free mmorpgs for a beginner? 6 days ago:
I vaguely recall getting about 30 days out of the free tier until I decided to start purchasing base/expansions.
So, I think I’d just say be aware that it’s probably not an “indefinitely free” kind of thing – but will give you a sufficient amount of entertainment until you want to consider if you want more.

Can I just dislike anyone that uses colored pill references.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 2 weeks ago:
Apologies - that was not a dig at the validity of the information provided.
That’s a very high number - so I had to either be misunderstanding the number or underestimating the number of employees the bonus was going to.
- Comment on Pop it in your calendars 2 weeks ago:
Im gonna need a fact check on that bonus number.
- Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game 2 weeks ago:
No pressure on their next game or anything.
- Comment on Yep, I actually own 7,255 games on Steam. I’ve played 23% of my library. I regret nothing. 3 weeks ago:
23% average game completion rate? Or “has been loaded at least once”?
- Comment on I get scared of a girl who approached me 4 weeks ago:
As an aside - what you did is fine. Will she/others interpret it in various ways? Sure.
But leaving a situation that you might not have been comfortable with isn’t wrong.
- Comment on Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community 1 month ago:
That’s a good chunk of money for some internal moderator to have on hand. (Not that it was an all cash deal.)

Yes.

No “spike up through the taint” level?
- Comment on How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years? 1 month ago:
www.howlongtobeat.com has some features to help with this. Will enable you to import games and playtimes from Steam.

False. The Flash wasn’t released until The CW introduced the series in 2014.
- Comment on Pokemon GO Adds Brand New Community Feature, But Not Everyone Is Happy 1 month ago:
These Community Camps are special spots that have extra PokeStops and Gyms. But what’s the catch? Well, they are designed to bring local players together.
The feature is part of the Community Ambassador Program, which means there will only be certain players who can create these Campsites. You must apply and eventually get accepted as an Ambassador. There are perks for those who are accepted, you get stuff like free items and support from the game’s team. However, some of the players are saying that it’s hard to get approved, and they are still on the waiting list.
Some trainers seem to be happy with it, they think it would help in making the game more social. While some aren’t really excited for it, they think the developers are trying to “force them to be extroverts.”
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 1 month ago:
Well yeah - now it’s got a case and a screen protector - so I can be as reckless as I want to with it.
Until so learn my next lesson - whatever that might be.
- Comment on The joy of quitting a shit job with an asshole boss 1 month ago:
I mean - it kind of is? I believe a company is allowed to ask another company if they’re eligible for rehire - and they record those things in their HR systems.
- Comment on Are some people too stupid to feel depressed? 1 month ago:
Sure. Just don’t be one of those people that tells others they wish they weren’t cursed for being so smart and “you don’t want to be in this mind”.

Someone update me when they figure out where the Cyanide And Happiness posts go. (I might be subscribed to others on lemm.ee - but that one stood out.)

Throw it in the back trunk.
- Comment on Zynga shuts down Torchlight 3 developer four years after its acquisition 1 month ago:
Thanks – It’s on the wishlist. I don’t really play for Seasonal content or anything so I can be patient until a heavy discount.
- Comment on Zynga shuts down Torchlight 3 developer four years after its acquisition 1 month ago:
Been a while since I played 2.
I recently played 1 and was surprised how well it played on the Steam Deck. Felt very native and is small enough on disk to leave it in for any dungeon slashing needs.
- Comment on Zynga shuts down Torchlight 3 developer four years after its acquisition 1 month ago:
Had recently picked up Torchlight 3 and been plinking through it on my Steam Deck.
It’s not great - but fits the mindless AARPG genre fine. I’m sure it doesn’t have the depth/mechanics to keep the Exile and Diablo fans happy.
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 1 month ago:
I was initially in the minimalist camp of just getting coverage for it and going naked.
Then someone stepped on it and I had to go through the whole ordeal of scheduling and getting it fixed.
After that I started applying screen protectors and using a case.
