- Comment on Has Google Search gotten so much worse in the last couple of weeks? 2 months ago:
Are you pretty consumercentric, or do you have some niche interests as well? Google is great at basic tasks and delivering product results and promoted content, and if that’s what you’re usually looking for it probably works great for you. People have trouble these days trying to find the specific stuff. Google used to really excel at this in the past, but now it’s buried under pages of promoted content or pages SEO gamed to the top but not being very helpful

- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 6 months ago:
Many people don’t even live by a store with anything other than over ripe bananas and Apples. People don’t all live in cities with Uber eats delivering organics from target. For MANY people, increasing their plant intake would mean literally starting a farm at home (quite the chore!), hour commutes, or relying on canned goods.
I eat a lot of fruits and veggies, because I’m fortunate enough to have moved out of one of these produce black holes. But baby carrots, canned corn, and frozen broccoli really gets old when that’s all that’s there. Forever.

Tbh, the game wasn’t even that good. After the first 5-6 hours most people put it down. It just becomes frustrating and not fun.

I can barely afford Perkins let alone a vegan restaurant.
Having morals is not cheap. I feel for you having to see other people eat food they can afford, that must be really hard, but a lot of people literally DON’T have the luxury, calorie to dollar, to be vegan. And no, eating rice and beans every day is not an acceptable diet.

The post I’m replying to was acting as if they had some new wisdom from being polyamorous and their perspective on marriage. But it sounds like they’re just using it as a business move which is something a lot of non polyamorous people do as well, and nothing new. I wasn’t asking what reasons could possibly exist to get married outside of romance or whatever you’re talking about, I was asking SPECIFICALLY THEM why they bothered, with their “unique” perspective on relationships. But it seems the only actual reason they have is taxes, despite their diatribe.

None of those reasons require marriage, so it’s not a satisfying reason.

So then why did you get married at all? Fun?

Oh so Cities II is better than 1 across the board? And the Hobbit movies were better than lotr? I feel like you’re being a tad naive.
- Comment on The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines 6 months ago:
So you think they’ve been making entirely new games for their entire existence? You don’t think it’s coming at all that literally all they do is make city builders and sell DLCs and then make a new one when interest dries up? Doesn’t seem very creative or innovative in my opinion it sounds like pure capitalism.
- Comment on The Way Forward, an update from the team behind Cities: Skylines 7 months ago:
This team has been making the exact same game for multiple decades. Look at this developer’s game history. It is literally the same exact game redeveloped over and over every few years and then they repackage and resell the same DLCs for the new versions. What a con of a game dev.

- Comment on Dave The Diver Surpasses 3 Million Sales 10 months ago:
I’m glad everyone is having fun with this one, but I’m gunna post my steam review for the small percentage of people who didn’t fall in love with this game:
Hehhhh…It’s okay. I don’t know. It’s like everything is good about it, but nothing is “great” about actually playing it? The visual style is fantastic, and I love the blend of pixel art and 3D, and the art in the sushi making cutscenes is exceptionally well done! But other than that…
The plot isn’t very interesting and frankly is quite derivative. The characters are all eccentric and aloof, which makes everything seem not very serious or important like a children’s cartoon.
The fishing is OK, but marred by some irritating development choices. You can’t aim directly up or down, for one. Getting attacked by a fish decreases your oxygen meter because there is no health meter, which can REALLY f*** you over if you’re deep and frankly makes no sense. There’s also a bassy Matrix-style bullet time slowdown sound effect every time you pull out your harpoon. This sound gets really irritating when you’re pulling in 30 tiny fish quickly.
The restaurant mechanics are more of a required chore than a fun section. They only last about 2 minutes tops, and the only things keeping them from being challenging and easy is how many other staff you’ve unlocked because it’s virtually impossible to do anything by yourself (it takes your character quite literally 4-5x longer to pour a beer as it does any of your other staff), so doing the restaurant sections is less about time management or making recipes, but more about seeing how your current staff perform and trying to sell the highest price fish you can to make money. The money is used to decorate your sushi bar but decorating it doesn’t change anything at all. Once you get 2-3 staff hired and upgraded (only takes maybe 15 hours) the only things you have to do anymore during the restaurants section is clean up dishes and grate wasabi for the cooks. Why can’t we learn how to cook?? Why can’t we upgrade ourselves so we can work as fast as the servers we hire? Why do you get DEMOTED (to a bus boy!) the longer you play?? I don’t know…this section just seems really strange and unnecessary gameplay-wise, which is interesting because it’s literally the entire reason the rest of the game exists.
I wasn’t going to type so much about this game, but here I am. I was on the fence, but I’m going to not recommend this game. It’s too far into development for much to change, and I don’t think there is enough originality or payoff here to justify the cost for entry and time required to play.
P.s. People need to stop f***ing eating sharks. There is a lot of shark murder and eating in this game. It physically makes you deliver a shark head on a plate after murdering it to a guest who has a positive emotional experience and cries over how delicious it is. It’s pretty gross. I don’t really care if it’s culturally acceptable, STOP MURDERING SHARKS.
- Comment on Jusant has released on Steam 1 year ago:
I never had a problem with giving up a game i wasn’t enjoying, but i can see it being nice for removing that commitment if you find yourself overstaying your welcome in a game you’re not really enjoying just to get your moneys worth.
It’s not that I want gamepass to go away or think it’s bad. But i can’t help but notice the second a game releases to gamepass I’m less interested in it. Commodifying games has done what was intended, i suppose…made them a commodity rather than something special.
I guess this also makes more sense in 2023, where AAA games are often not very good and often even broken on launch, or incomplete with day one dlcs. Not very tempting to drop 60$ on a product like that.
I think the conclusion I’m coming to, is game pass is a good solution for the annoying terrible state the game industry is currently in. But not for me personally. I’m too jaded to pay attention to new games, I stick with my classic titles and indies mostly.
- Comment on Jusant has released on Steam 1 year ago:
I think Xbox game pass is a great service for people who can’t afford PCs or consoles, but not being one of those people I had to stop using the service. I kept noticing games I was excited about playing before they were released I would only touch for a few hours and basically forget about them after a couple sessions. I had atomic heart on my steam wish list for years and I followed its development eagerly, but when it came out I got it on game pass instead of waiting to get it on a good sale on my steam account like I normally do, and despite enjoying the first 3 hours I still haven’t played it again. The only thing I can conclude is the nature of game pass itself has robbed the specialness of new games.
