  People generally want to play videogames that look interesting.

  40-45.

  There are a lot of games at 30 I’ve played through just fine, but for FPS games that extra 10-15 is about my minimum unless it’s on console with aim assist. I grew up playing Saints Row 2 at single-digit framerates, but I just can’t do that anymore.

  Divinity: Original Sin

  Also “a bit too long and some noticeable jank” but damn if I don’t get really into it sometimes. Had to switch to the easier difficulty after something like 25 hours of playtime because I’m not very experienced in these types of RPGs but it’s okay because there’s still some challenge there, just not enough to really actually worry.

  Great way to lose all of the traffic. This would require two things:

  1. Accounts, which is automatic friction. Whether that’s people who have no account and only come to browse, whether that’s people having to make a second account or choose to be horny on main, this is definitely going to cause some user loss.
  2. Willingness to pay reddit for porn, which like, no. They’d be better off giving paid user pages and simply taking a cut so OnlyFans creators can treat reddit similarly. I don’t think many people are gonna want to pay for what amounts to teasers for other paid options.

  Additionally, this would mean reddit is acknowledging the porn on their site and taking responsibility for it by profiting off of it. Therefore, because reddit is an American company, this will kill off their audience in Texas and Oklahoma where, effectively, American-hosted porn websites are banned.

  I know it’s not a film, but it’s wild to me that John Marston from Red Dead Redemption 1/2 is voiced by…a construction worker in Indiana.

  But more accurate to the question, I thought 8 Mile was pretty good, though the last time I saw it I was like 15.

  Sounds like good moderation to me. Terrible title that implies an opinion is wrong and that OP was never interested in discussion at all. Talking at people isn’t talking to people.
