Yahoo is just a terrible news source in general tbh

Oh yeah, ty for correction.
- Comment on Old School Runescape is raising membership prices 3 months ago:
Yeah, it’s a real sore spot for the community too - people often have 2 or more accounts due to various account types like mains who have no restrictions, ironmen who can’t trade and gotta get everything themselves, group ironmen which is ironman but co-op in a 5 person group and other modes that add additional limitations.

Not anymore, they’re killing grandfather rates with this update

You still pay for membership separately tho
- Comment on "Now everyone will have an easy reference table at hand!" 3 months ago:
When I was doing my Chemistry class in like 6th grade (Eastern European btw), we had to memorize it as one of our first assignments lol. Ofc, we didn’t need to know the full table but progressively learn the first 30-50 elements over the span of few months.

Didn’t Musk unironically have a burner twitter account where he would pretend to be a 3 year old child? Grok might be onto something here
- Comment on Anon's gf is unfulfilled 4 months ago:
Actually it’s not as simple as pronouns in the English language when it comes to ‘latinx’. The word is not that easy to pronounce to someone who knows Spanish but doesn’t know English all that well, which are the people this word is supposed to include. It’s quite literally imposing English language norms on the Spanish language which can be considered offensive in itself.
Besides, personal opinion but it sounds stupid. If there’s a need to call someone from Latin America a gender neutral term, latine is a much better alternative - it’s more accepted within Spanish speaking communities, -e is already found in non-gendered names within Spanish language and just generally doesn’t sound like something Musk would have written.

The one time copypasting a bunch of building was actually a good idea

- Comment on Vanguard takes screenshots of your PC every time you play a game 7 months ago:
I’ve tried to see if this is real but I fail to find any source code leaks for Vanguard or if it has ever been leaked. The poster himself also doesn’t seem that credible unless your definition of credible is “THE TERROR OF RIOT GAMES”.
Am I missing something or is this post likely just bullshit?
- Comment on Games that force you to make hard choices 11 months ago:
Pathologic 2 - it’s a really stressful game, but I think it’d be perfect for the criteria. The choices matter aspect are intertwined in both how you spend your time (it’s limited and you can’t be everywhere at once), and in quests (the more traditional choices, like pick A or B or C). Don’t want to spoil any more but it’s amazing, you don’t need to play the original.
Besides it, I’ve also heard good things from Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, though I haven’t played it personally.
- Comment on What's your favorite game that you will NEVER finish? 11 months ago:
Old School Runescape. Kind of a cop-out answer as it’s a MMO, but I’m never gonna get maxed there
- Comment on Headlines be like 11 months ago:
If any of you want diamond jewelry, be it rings or necklaces or whatever, look up synthetic diamonds. Far cheaper and result is often the same if not better, as its made in controlled environment.
- Comment on How have you personally found the Lemmy community compared to its competition and other social media? 11 months ago:
I didn’t use reddit that much before switching to lemmy (only browsing a couple of niche subreddits that I liked), but in general I do like people here a bit more. At least in my experience, I saw more people here willing to have discussions when compared to reddit, which is something I do enjoy from time to time.
That being said, I must agree with a lot of commenters in this thread - there is a lot of propaganda on this platform and that’s a part of lemmy that I have the biggest gripes with.

Oh, easy. Just give then an iPad with access to YouTube.
- Comment on What is going to happen when people realize climate change is rolling in? 1 year ago:
Probably a lot of people are going to be like “why didn’t anyone do anything about this???”, completely forgetting that’s happening right now, with likely the same people being climate deniers.
- Comment on How is woke a religion? 1 year ago:
The word woke lost all meaning due to far-right wingers constantly using it as a catch-all term for everything they don’t like.
Also, I love how they made it so the top 3 bad guys are atheists, agnostics (which are pretty much the same thing) and the jewish. They’re not even trying to be covert with propaganda.
- Comment on What game has a great story and is worth the time investment? 1 year ago:
Disco Elysium definitely, as it’s probably one of if not the best written games available right now.
If you want something with more gameplay, you should definitely take a look at Pathologic 2. New content will be released relatively soon for it too (as in a different playable character and story), so it’s probably a good time to give it a shot.

Nice bait Mr Business Man
- Comment on Early opinion 1 year ago:
I’m a f2p, so I haven’t even touched the expansion itself, but I’ve tried the systems.
Wizard’s vault is kind of interesting - the rewards you get daily/weekly are probably too rewarding, as after doing some weekly and daily tasks, I could claim 90 gold, something I haven’t ever gotten in 200 hours of play. I like how you can buy laurels as free to play now, I feel like it levels the playing field when it comes to WvW due to being able to buy ascended talismans, though no warclaw still hurts. Some of the tasks for the weekly challenges are terrible in my opinion, such as “escort 10 pack dolyaks in wvw” which is a literal chore that achieves nothing in the game mode. Apart from that, I do miss the daily jumping puzzles that would give momentary community interaction.
Relics are incredibly weird. They kind of ruined the choices between runes, now they’re purely stats, which makes a rune choice very linear. Now, speaking of relics themselves, so far I’m rather underwhelmed - the majority of the runes are designed for a specific class in mind and their profession mechanic, which aren’t applicable at all to the rest of the classes. The rest I feel are way too situational (depending on what type of elite skill you have), and the generalist relics such as faster weapon swap or better swiftness feel way too boring in comparison to the other relics.
- Comment on How is former president of the US Donald Trump still free when a lot of the accomplices in things he has been indicted for are already in jail and or prison except him? 1 year ago:
Because current US politics and justice system are a sham that only serves the rich.
How come there are still people who get the death penalty but later get found to be innocent, while when it comes to an ex-politician, they gotta drag the process out for years and years to find every single detail?
- Comment on [Meme] Hope we all had a friend react the same way 1 year ago:
I actually had an opposite reaction - I’m a f2p player and it started really strong. I loved the initial story and how you could have choices (be it how you want to do the story or dialogue choices based on your character’s personality), the world and how it had actual personality through the whole meta event system and heart tasks, crafting, loads of free content - it was great.
However, after reaching level 80, getting personal story finished, crafting exotic armor and weapons I was pretty much out of things to do. I tried PvP and WvW but didn’t particularly enjoy them, though Fractals were quite interesting but got basically completely ruined when me and my duo hit a wall and experienced players were just running through everything with me having to play constant catch up and bosses melting in under a minute.
Now I just occasionally log in to do dailies, maybe do some fractals too to work on some ascended gear (money for 500 crafting + the ascended rings) - that’s pretty much it.
- Comment on Capitalism indoctrination in progress. 1 year ago:
Questions like these make me wonder if large capitalists actually live in an alternate universe but through some time and space shenanigans they are still here. There’s just no way they can make this type of shit up (assuming it’s a real question) without being delusional or sadistic.
