- Comment on Cyberpunk 2077 director thanks fans as the game hits a 95% positive review rating on Steam 1 week ago:
What I think is astonishing to some people lately about Cyberpunk, is that they got most of their information from the popular channels on the internet. Despite its name, these channels (reddit r/all, Twitter, etc) are a (loud) minority of the actual opinions.
Pretty much every one I talked to IRL about Cyberpunk was aware of the controversy, but had a much more nuanced opinion than I was seeing online. Many of them enjoyed it and weren’t really experiencing that many bugs (myself included). But this wasn’t an “allowed” opinion online. Anyone who said the game was enjoyable or they didn’t personally experience many bugs were attacked for being a CDPR fanboy (myself included) and down voted.

I’m not a CDPR fanboy. Or at least I wasn’t before Cyberpunk. Cyberpunk and Hades are probably the best games I’ve played in a decade.

The whole game has an amazing story, that actually hooks the player’s emotions. It’s fantastic. It’s so refreshing after so many games with lazy writing or voice acting. I also played shortly after release, only experiencing 2 major bugs in my playthrough. I know others had it worse, but it was actually refreshing on that front too.

Totally get where you’re coming from. But you can enjoy the game and dislike the way they marketed and released it. 90% of life isn’t a zero-sum game. Despite what the internet would have you believe.
- Comment on I like this text. In which Lemmy community can I best share it ? Thanks. 2 weeks ago:
I think what it comes down to is some people have a fundamentally different way of thinking about it. Myself included. Setting my intention on something far in the future doesn’t necessarily mean I actually intend on achieving it. In fact, I’m almost 100% sure that I won’t. Given enough time, I’ll be a completely different person. Holding myself to what the younger version of me decided is foolish.
If I end up not being able to financially support a business I started, but I successfully provided for myself with it for years and learned a lot, it’s still valuable. If I spend 20 years in a relationship that ends, but it leads to greater self-understanding and helps me build better relationships in the future, it was worth it. It’s conceivable that a person could live an entire life doing things that you would classify as failures. But also feel completely satisfied and happy with it. So that suggests it might be a flawed perspective, no?
- Comment on How Greed Ruined Gaming 3 weeks ago:
The only way PC gaming is not affordable to the average person is if they’re playing AAA titles. I have a GTX 780 worth ~$60 that I still use to play many indie titles like Party Animals, Planet Crafters, Stardew Valley, Lethal Company, Content Warning, etc.

Oh, y’all wanna do cross continent! Ok Image
- Comment on Fallout Show, so bad that no one will remember it in 3 months 5 weeks ago:
Yeah I was thinking… would a fallout show be goofy and colorful, or dark and horrific? Amazon said, yes. And it’s great.

Yeah as soon as this law is made, no hospitals will be making a profit. R.E: any recent movie made by Hollywood.

I think you’re forgetting that a lot of churches are small fellowships co-opting an office space or like the other commenter said, out in the middle of nowhere. This wasn’t a post about mega churches, but it’s a fair point.
- Comment on Jon Stewart On The False Promises of AI | The Daily Show 1 month ago:
Feels like a bit of a loop back there. “It can only ever be as smart as human output. So we’ll always need humans.” To… What? Create equivalent mistakes? Maybe LLMs in their current form won’t be the drop in replacement, but it’s a critical milestone and a sign of what’s around the corner. So these concerns are still relevant.
- Comment on Gameplay mechanics were also a lot better with more replayability. 1 month ago:
I also think there’s a genuine drop in satisfaction when people are presented with more options. I limit myself and only buy new-ish games when I feel like I’ve extracted as much enjoyment out of the last one I bought as I can. I think this helps a lot.
Because what I see a lot of people doing is jumping to the game-of-the-week and then getting numb and saying “there’s no good games” even as they continue to buy new ones every week.

Well at this point they might be the weird one if they’re named Anna.
- Comment on 😠Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time😠 1 month ago:
If you’re talking about the problem of someone acting like they get to decide who is allowed and what happens on the platform, I agree in principle, but that’s why the fediverse exists.
- Comment on 😠Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time😠 1 month ago:
Yeah, I love the idea of the fediverse because it creates a democratized community where anybody can choose to listen to who they want. Unfortunately this attracts very clicky users that feel like they own the fediverse and want to push others out. I’ve seen it a couple times already with people clambering to defederate other instances they don’t like. Thankfully we can just choose to not listen to them, lol.
I don’t like Facebook and I understand the concerns that Facebook will sort of take over the fediverse from the inside like a parasite. But at the end of the day you can just spin up a vanilla instance and connect with anyone willing to do the same. That’s what’s great about the fediverse.

I was really on board until the last sentence basically perpetuated the same issue 😅 They think they’re believing in their own excellence. Rather, admit your flaws and accept them because that’s okay. Try your best to do better everyday.

Exactly, I’ve worked so hard and come so far to reach peace. It feels impossible to retrace all those steps with someone who’s barely willing. But at least I can be her stability.

The mind is a powerful thing. So is reality. It’s important to strike a balance. Image

- Comment on [Steam] Which lesser known games have you bought or are planning to buy in this sale? 4 months ago:
I like The Ascent! That’s a fun game. I’ve heard of a lot of jank, but not experienced much myself. Other than some crashes when loading between areas.
- Comment on I've been wondering for some time 5 months ago:
Love a good shit post, lol. And it actually gets me thinking how something like 70% the world’s wealth is held in the top 10% 🍽️ 🤤
Of course you need to make a monumental amount of money compared to the rest of the world, so we’re willing to make that sacrifice! Just 10% of people in the world! 😂 I think it’s $32k USD a year salary to be in the global top 10% of earners. And oh… $60k USD to be in the top 1%
So I’m kinda curious, OP, you on the menu?
Note this calculator is from 2019, so “deinflate” accordingly

- Comment on How do I get informed on Joe Rogan without watching his videos. 7 months ago:
The real answer. Everyone is different, can’t really judge a person’s views by who they watch. I know people that watch a lot of Fox because they want to know what kind of crap they’re spreading.
- Comment on Steve Jobs: The difference of stealing yourself vs being stolen from 8 months ago:
To this day whenever I hear people say Apple invented the smart phone I sigh. Maybe that’s technically true or not depending on how you want to count it. But what irks me is how people think it was brilliant. Like bro, I was browsing on the go with my Zune and PSP years before the iPhone came out. The only things we can thank Apple for are the two worst parts of a smart phone. Apps and the phone.
