⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is bringing AI characters to Xbox⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
Oh man, please don’t remind me of that disappointment.

On the other hand, I felt like “Drivatars” from the Forza series were decent. They at the very least felt a bit better than the static randomly generated drivers. I’m sure others may have had different experiences though.

Guess we’ll see how it turns out though.

The original commenter did mention they had health insurance
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Diablo® IV is coming to Steam⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
This was somewhat done for Destiny 2, when they moved from Battle.net to Steam (so like the Bethesda situation mentioned in another reply). I’m sure it was a bit easier for them since the base game went F2P which obviously hasn’t happened here for Diablo 4, but all of my purchases/DLCs for the game were transferred over to the Steam equivalents.

I’d assume if they really wanted to, they could find a way to just give everyone who has it on BNet a key to the Steam version, but there’s no real incentive for them to do that.

Ah, you are right - thanks!
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you filter out posts on Lemmy that are in languages other than one you speak?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
In your settings, you can set your preferred languages - since you’re on lemmy.world this link should take you there. You can hold control down to select multiple options if you’re on desktop (and mobile should have a selection box pop up).

Though be sure to keep “undetermined” enabled, otherwise a lot of stuff will vanish. Also note that this only works for posts/comments where people have actually selected the correct language (if someone posts something in German, but marks it as English for example, it will still pop up).
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why shouldn’t I just give up on Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
Seems like discussion of the version numbers is getting mixed up then. I just logged out of Liftoff and logged back in with zero issues on my instance running 0.18.5.

As you can see in the GitHub link I posted in my previous comment, there’s only one major commit difference between 0.18.4 and .5, which fixes deletions not propagating correctly through Federation when an admin deletes a post who wasn’t a mod of the community (but still an admin of the community’s main instance) in question.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why shouldn’t I just give up on Lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
Not sure where the information about 0.18.5 having breaking changes came from. The 0.18.5 release is just the federated deletion fix that was cherry-picked in.

0.19 will definitely have breaking changes though, yes. In the admin matrix group there were quite a few people talking about accidentally leaving their instances on the latest docker tag which includes all of those breaking changes and no way to downgrade due to the DB structure changes. Maybe you’re hearing about it from them?

I updated my instance to 0.18.5 yesterday and have no problems with any of the apps. Re-logged into Thunder and can see my communities just fine.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 25-09-2023⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
For me, it’s been Last Epoch which is an ARPG. It’s been doing a fantastic job of scratching the itch that Diablo 4 just failed to do.

I finally made it past the campaign and am in the endgame (as far as I understand), and I’ve had a good time trying to come up and play with various builds on my Runemaster character!

Also, American Truck Simulator for when I just want to turn my brain off and relax.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why, as a male, when emotionally do I only feel accepted by women but not by men?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
In my experience, this isn’t a gendered distinction - but rather just down to the individual person.

Some of my closest friends that are both men and women alike are friends I consider “letting my guard down” around. The same applies in the opposite direction, where I have friends (but generally more on the distant friend / acquaintance side) men and women alike that I have to be a bit more guarded around.

And while I can’t comment on this specifically because I of course don’t know you and as such have no frame of reference, from what I’ve experienced in the past and seen others go through, is that a lot of times it’s how you bring it up. If it seems more forceful, it’s going to have a higher chance to not land well with people (of any gender).

I’m kind of surprised, I thought they were done with The Division series after TD2 being put into maintenance mode. Will be interested in seeing how it ends up at least.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo demoed Switch 2 to developers at Gamescom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
Out of curiosity, how do you do the save syncing? I’ve already got Yuzu itself all setup, but this would certainly help with some issues that I face when using it.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which Android Lemmy apps have mod tools?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
It also has admin actions now as well, which I don’t believe I’ve seen on any of the other apps yet.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which Android Lemmy apps have mod tools?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
For a lifetime purchase of Ultra, yes (depending on your country, there is regional pricing now). You don’t need Ultra for mod/admin tools.

I don’t generally enjoy musicals (or rather, shows that aren’t musicals but then do a random episode as a musical) but SNW definitely did it right! And I’m glad I didn’t skip it since I considered doing so.
