- Comment on Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community 1 day ago:
That’s a good chunk of money for some internal moderator to have on hand. (Not that it was an all cash deal.)
- Comment on [deleted] 3 days ago:
I’m 19 and have had my driver’s license since last summer.
Yes.
- Comment on How's it going? 1 week ago:
No “spike up through the taint” level?
- Comment on How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years? 1 week ago:
www.howlongtobeat.com has some features to help with this. Will enable you to import games and playtimes from Steam.

Did we have many options then? I vaguely recall Nox.

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 week 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? 2 weeks 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 2 weeks 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? 2 weeks 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”.
- Comment on lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month 2 weeks ago:
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.)
- Comment on This fell off my car, can I just rip it off and not care? 2 weeks ago:
Throw it in the back trunk.
- Comment on Zynga shuts down Torchlight 3 developer four years after its acquisition 2 weeks 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 2 weeks 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 2 weeks 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? 2 weeks 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.
- Comment on Down with the flu 2 weeks ago:
A flu was how I saw the original Star Wars trilogy – I think I also timed a flu with a James Bond marathon.
Wonder if they still have those kind of marathons for sick kids to trip across - been eons since I’ve watched cable.
- Comment on ‘We tried and it didn’t work out’: CDPR co-founder says it shouldn’t stray from AAA open-world RPGs 2 weeks ago:
Because you moved on to AAAA?
- Comment on Would AI replacing humans in every workplace eventually make it easier for an advanced civilization from outer space to colonize us? 2 weeks ago:
Lots of Alien theme with the newly created OP account.
Are you the one whispering into every CEOs ear about AI?
- Comment on I they they're trying to murder me and steal my brain 2 weeks ago:
This title hurts me.
- Comment on agi graph slop, wtf does goverment collapse have to do with ai? 2 weeks ago:
Will life be enjoyable until then or are a majority of us unemployed early on.

The Mother’s semen?
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 3 weeks ago:
Let’s say you’re a Cartel member, you need a transplant for you or someone you love, and you’ve acquired an amount of money that solves this through already illegal means.
- Comment on Why does (human) organ trafficking exist? 3 weeks ago:
Transplants. Supply/demand.
- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 3 weeks ago:
Yup.
- Comment on venomous 3 weeks ago:
I was only aware of a platypus. Is it all administered through some barb like appendage on the legs? Which one shoots venom missiles?

I hate you.
- Comment on Square Enix considered ending Final Fantasy 11 in 2024, but player interest was high enough to keep it alive even after 20+ years 4 weeks ago:
It runs pretty well and everything and I think will scratch the itch.
It’s just a very jarring throwback to the times.
The game was more built around being ran with a controller, so mouse and keyboard is a little janky - I pretty much solely use a keyboard.
Map/travel is very old school. Alt tabbing for maps/routes, boats, etc.
Making a player level to 20, and then immediately starting over to level again for a sub job is an incredibly sadistic thing to ask from an MMO.
I could go on. But it regularly sees 2k+ players online so there must be some subset of people that enjoy it.

I can’t in good conscience recommend this to an internet stranger - because the experience is quite brutal.
But if you do in fact hate yourself - you might look into horizonxi.com
