Surely this AAA-budget live service game with a terrible premise won't faceplant immediately and force us to close the studio...but let's make it an MMO, just to be safe.

LinkedIn reminds me of that scene in Men in Black where they discover a weird little society living inside a locker. But instead of a locker, it's a job board.

Their source is a reporter at Giant Bomb? GameSpot and Giant Bomb are owned by the same company.

Don't get me wrong, I don't have much faith in this remake, but citing the opinion of a guy who works for your sister company doesn't seem like proper journalism.

Many subreddits are holding polls on whether they should continue the blackout. For those who are boycotting Reddit, I would highly encourage you to go vote. Even if you plan to leave Reddit for good, a longer blackout will drive more users here.

Sorry, best we can do is a premium (expensive) ad-free tier that still advertises our own products.

The only Prime show I can even think of is The Boys, which is worth a month subscription once a year or so whenever a new season drops. With so much competition and so little content, you'd think these streaming services would start offering better incentives for long-term subscriptions. Instead, they keep raising rates. Baffling.

Man, I don't know what I'd do without Aldi. Ironic that the best grocery chain in America is European, when the American Grocery Store used to be such a symbol of U.S. prosperity.

I have mixed feelings. On one hand, Lemmy seems to be finding its groove, and I genuinely feel like I'm part of a growing community. But there's definitely something missing, and it's difficult to put into words.

On Reddit, I tended to frequent specific subs, and rarely doomscrolled the front page. But that's all I find myself doing on Lemmy. Most of my feed is either politics or memes, and nuanced discussion seems rare. New communities apparently have a hard time getting off the ground, and I think it's mostly because decentralization makes discovery a hastle.

Reddit's whole purpose is to aggregate content from other websites, whilst providing a central access point. This is antithetical to the very concept of the Fediverse, which is all about decentralization. I find myself wishing for an easy way to aggregate Fediverse content, so that I could access Lemmy, Beehaw, Kbin, etc. all in one place, regardless of whether they're federated. Really, all the drama surrounding instances federating/defederating is obnoxious as an end user.

The apps are certainly better, though, and in general I'm enjoying myself.

Is Lemmy making pasta now?

If you're a fallacious gambler, maybe.

An elegant weapon, for a more... civilized age

Mullet with headlights?

B̶U̶T̶T̶E̶R̶FLY IN THE SKY

I always end up with some kind of potato man that looks worse than the presets, then immediately put a helmet on that never comes off.

You're not old until the music you don't consider old becomes old.

Sounds like a rogue black hole

Dragon Age: Origins is pretty gory (for an RPG from that era.) Their whole marketing campaign was basically "look how bloody this game is—even our logo is made out of blood."

Edit: I would recommend Wildermyth as a whimsical, party-based RPG that doesn't include stuff like this.

That's funny, I just watched a Tasting History episode that advised against death by misadventure.

Remember when Nintendo was panned for the name "Wii U", and Microsoft saw that and said "hold my beer"

Yeah, they're both subsidiaries of Fandom

Man, I'm the complete opposite. I find it suffers from the same problem that most of these survivalcraft games do — once you make it past the initial challenge, there isn't much left to do besides decorate.

I'd really like to see some escalating challenge after you've established a base. Progressively difficult raids, bosses to conquer, deeper and darker dungeons. Something of that nature. The temporal storms are a good start, but after a while they become more of a nuisance than an actual threat.

There are those of us who finished highschool, graduated college, and started careers in the games industry since Skyrim was released. I'm sure there are plenty of developers who cut their teeth on Skyrim mods now working for Bethesda.
