I irony being anyone who owns such mug does give a fuck what you believe.

if others click the downvote button on my posts/comments, nothing happens at all as far as I know.
I think it shares the downvotes within that instance (possibly with other instances that allow downvoting) so anyone else viewing the post from the same instance as the user who downvoted will still see it and their browser will use that when sorting the posts.

Sometimes I miss old forums where content was brought back up by simply posting within the topic
That’s how forums on Steam work and it makes them almost useless. The only posts you see are the rage bait from people farming Steam points from ‘Clown’ awards. Any meaningful post doesn’t get the same engagement as people trying to ‘slam the trolls into submission’ (FFS, how do people still not know you don’t feed the trolls?) so it gets pushed under all the bullshit.
Lemmy’s system is good because there is no account wide total, so it really doesn’t matter if one of your posts gets a lot of upvotes and another gets a lot of downvotes, it just means one was good and other wasn’t.
… And then you get people who really want some kind of account wide total for some reason so they go to websites that total up the number of times a user has given upvotes and downvotes…

Do the Nazis ever claim they are intolerant of minorities because the minorities were intolerant to them?
- Comment on Sooo... This is happening on Imgur 4 weeks ago:
Group A: “I am intolerant of (group) because they need to go back to their own country and not live in mine.”
Group B: “I am intolerant of (group) because they don’t tolerate other ethnicities.”
This guy: “but who was intolerant first?”

The article from July explains why Steam banned this game last month, despite Itch (which stopped selling certain games due to the payment processors) is selling it?
Who is this article writer that can see 4 months into the future?!

You claimed Steam banned this because of the payment processors. The same payment processors being used by stores that didn’t ban this. Seems a relevant point to the discussion we are having.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 5 weeks ago:
Do the other stores hosting the game have the same payment processors?
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 5 weeks ago:
Steam hasn’t banned adult games. That is proven with a quick search of Steam’s catalog.

the slippery slope starts somewhere.
You know slippery slope is a fallacy right? The “slippery slope” can also stop anywhere.

When did I (or anyone else) exert pressure on Steam to not carry this? My understanding is this is a decision Steam made.

I don’t know but don’t give up. Try reading my post again, take it slow, I’m sure your can work it out.
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 5 weeks ago:
That’s not how that works. You don’t get to decide what a store does and does not sell. Steam refuses hundreds of games a year, this one doesn’t get special treatment.
Saying “I understand why (store) would not want to carry this product” is not the same as saying “no store should carry this product.”

drawing a murder isn’t murder and drawing Noncon isn’t rape.
Drawing people having sex isn’t sex, but it is porn. Verbally attacking someone isn’t assault, but it can be abuse. Drawing a comic where someone tortures and then kills the president of the United States isn’t murder, but it will get the FBI knocking on your door.

The scene where a little girl asks to ride a naked man, and then rides a naked man? You don’t see why that might be problematic?
- Comment on the game "Horses" now barred on Steam, Epic and Humble Bundle 5 weeks ago:
Considering there website proudly shows it is banned on Steam I’m sure this was done on purpose for the publicity.
Why did Epic ban it though? They didn’t get the ‘tainted’ preview version and normally love to have games that aren’t on Steam.

- Comment on Why are there so many bloody roguelikes or roguelites, and what really makes a game roguish? 1 month ago:
The popularity is because they are easy to pick up and put down. If I want to go back to an RPG that I haven’t touched on months I need to try to remember where I was going, what my build was doing, and how to deal with the things I was fighting. If I want to go back to FTL that I haven’t played on years I just start a new run anyways, and all my ship unlocks are there if I want them.

What you aren’t arguing for anywhere in this comment is that every artist be required to do these things. Somehow game developers are exempt from this grace?
Would it be better if every piece of art was accessible like this? Yes.
Same goes for games. That’s what this thread is: it would be better if every game had X

I prefer the 4 circles glyphs that shows the appropriate face button highlighted. It’s device agnostic and helpful when I’m switching between playing on my Switch and playing on my PC with an Xbox controller.

During EA for Hades 2 if you paused while fighting the god of time he would say “I control time here!” And unpause the game. It was funny, but if I need to answer my door I don’t want to lose my run. Thankfully that has been changed.

Also I don’t. I am not a funeral director and the cemetery does that. I do paperwork, make cards and signs, pay bills, move bodies and make sure they are where they are supposed to be.

There are also areas you can’t access until you have beaten a specific boss which gives you exploration abilities for future runs (ground pound, grow vines)

I loved the scarecrow sequences in that. I would love to play more games the effectively fuck with player but it’s very difficult to look for without spoiling yourself and then you’re expecting it.
