My only complaint of the game I have is pacing. I found the routes between fights to be boring, and the weird 2D sections never really provided much else.

Patient gaming wins again

Just switched over to the beta updates and that seems to have resolved the issue for me. Thanks!

What happens is some kid gets a gossip app which takes their contact data and then uses it to send this shit.

I used to get it pretty often too when I was in school.

Because people like pokemon that’s why.

There’s plenty of games with “edgy monsters” and I literally always forget them. But a fucking crab with a traffic cone for a shell? I will NEVER forget.

Besides the last franchise that tried to compete with Pokemon on top of adding the edgy monsters was Digimon and that’s…questionable at best.

It’s hard to really pinpoint just one game…but I would argue Skyrim is my nearest and dearest. 10k hours of playtime since release, haven’t played for nearly 2 years but I still keep tabs on mods in the event I go back (I will).

I was maybe 12 when I first played Skyrim, roughly a year after it was released and I was enthralled by it. By that age the most “expansive” game I’d played was maybe Minecraft (Beta 1.7.3). I think it might’ve been my first open world game?

Either way, the music, the questing, the exploration and detail in the worlds always held my ADHD brain’s attention well. I saw the flaws, sure. However I thoroughly enjoyed that janky buggy game more than any other thing out there for a long long while.

Right behind Skyrim would have to be Dishonored. It’s actually one of the only two games I’ve gotten a physical PC copy for. But the lore, story, and vibes of the game were genuinely so cool to me. I replayed that and the games sequels several times now.

Minecraft holds a close place in my heart too, I generally come back to it once a year for a nice, lightly modded hardcore playthrough. It especially helps me with creativity, since I get to build something without it feeling like work.

But yeah, Skyrim will always hold a place in my heart, and to a level it even influenced parts of my younger personality.

We def get plenty of good games in a year. But everyone wants to give their money to big AAA devs when the good games are made by small teams.

This year we got (in the spotlight):

Baldurs Gate 3, LoZ: Tears of the Kingdom, Resident Evil 4, and Pikmin 4.

And in the background we got: Turbo Overkill, Have a Nice Death, Pizza Tower, just to name a few.

Maybe take a break from gaming if it’s so irritating, or go back and play some older games. Either way, the overconsumption of people who grew up gaming js unsustainable and it leads to mental burnout eventually. Doesn’t help that most profit comes from multiplayer games, which people continue to actively play while complaining about it as if there aren’t other options.

A self image that has been instilled through years and years of highly targeted, and highly researched ad campaigns.

People “want” these because they believe they need it, because the ads told them they need it. Then the other men who own those vehicles proceed to shit on the men with smaller trucks, and those insecure enough to bend over get the big truck as well.

I don’t see this truck culture in Europe. I don’t see people buying stupid vehicles to go offroading full of expensive gadgets and so on. While I’m sure it exists in small pockets it is by no means the level it’s at here. (In Europe it’s probably more for sports cars anywho)

Point being, no one wanted those SUVs until the car companies told them they want those SUVs.

I’ve heard this plenty of times, but are you using that field? Are you using that forest? This road that road? Are you using the parking lot in Seattle when you live in Georgia?

“We have the space for bigger vehicles” does not make sense when we have to drive farther and farther to reach things that are useful for us. (Also sprawling development destroys local ecosystems, and along with that, natural resources.)

While I would’ve agreed with you a few years ago, it’s just not a realistic thought process when most people live their day-to-day lives in an area about the size of Luxembourg.

Big vehicles are a huge waste of valuable resources that could’ve been used on other things, such as infrastructure, public transport, smaller vehicles. Etc.

They are tricked into wanting big vehicles.

Never too late to learn how to read 🤷‍♀️

So each instance within the fediverse can communicate with each other, but how do things like the feeds work? Since there’s no algorithm is everything from Lemmy.world only going to show up on the popular feed (if I’m on that instance) or can other things like lemmy.ee or whatever also show up?

And can I comment on posts from a different instance or does that vary per instance?

Sorry, last one. I noticed there are things like music streaming and video sharing instances within the fediverse, so could Lemmy theoretically allow content from those instances to be cross-posted here?

Basically to me this feels like a super modular super media platform that has tons of parts that can plop in and out of the system as needed.

More than a trilogy, but I’ve been enjoying Yakuza quite a bit.

I actually really liked Crysis 2, it felt like a polished Crysis and I enjoyed the city setting. The plot was quite basic but so was the first game.

I am sad there was no Zero-G moments though.
