Man it’s weird how things happen. I was literally just listening to Bo Burnhams “funny feeling” this morning and he has a line about “Robert (Bob) Igers face” and I thought hmm I actually don’t get that, I don’t know who he is. Then I open Lemmy and see this lol

I am hoping for a work of art. I am expecting

starfield, but with a medieval coat of paint.

They’re too greedy to build a new engine and insist on sticking with the limited creation engine so they can keep churning out uninspired copy paste crap. It’s cheaper than the alternative and they don’t want to have to learn something new which also costs time(money).

I gave up on so-called “AAA” dev corporations. I hate that they squander good IPs keeping them locked up because they own them… :(

printing press fired up in 2020 and real estate investors seemed to get plenty of that cash.

Maybe I’m just ignorant, but in a just world that should have never been allowed to happen… I’m sure our politicians had nothingggg to do with that “oversight.” :/

Thanks for the links!

Yeah that was me too… I FINALLY got to the point where I could realistically start looking, got the pre-approval and everything just after COVID started… People had already starting WFH and moving away from where they worked and investment companies kept buying and now I’m still living in someone else’s garage because prices went through the roof pretty much as I was looking…

Of course once you mention WFH everyone gets defensive and claims this was a trend, but those charts are the same everywhere. Houses in 2018-19 were often less than half of what they cost now…

I don’t even like to be asked because then I have to say no and I feel bad about it or I give in because it’s the “right thing to do” and I end up cursing myself for saying yes lol

“That’s the Internet there, right? A series of tubes?”

From what I understand others more knowledgeable than I am have said that person tried some nonsense where he gutted files from the OS that may have included dependencies for explorer.exe so if what Microsuck says is still true you can disable the screenshot function of recall and whatever other privacy settings you want and you’ll still be able to use your PC.

I really hope that’s true because I honestly don’t want to have to go to Linux and play IT guy constantly when I’m just trying to play a game or something after work. However much Microsuck sucks, windows almost always just works and the rare times I have an issue so many people use windows that I can easily find a fix.

I don’t wanna touch grass! Don’t make me! Lol

I’ll be “that guy” but according to Chris Roberts (the guy who owns CIG that is making the game) star citizen is supposed to be a “space life” game. It’s not an “arcade game” where there is a specific game type it is built around. You’re supposed to just be a dude/dudette living your life out in space and do what you want which can include all the things you mentioned. I personally want that very much. There are a million games out there that do the basic space pew pew thing or mining, but nothing like a life sim.

There’s going to be more than just hunger and dehydration, they built toilets and showers into some ships for a specific reason not just atheistics lol

I feel like monster hunter is kinda hard to mess up, unless they suddenly decided to make it turn based with micro transactions for extra turns or something lol

The “story” is: omg big monster messing up the ecosystem, go fight! So it’s really all down to gameplay lol

Mierdas touch

I’ve given up on every major developer/publisher, so-called AAA garbage, except for capcom for monster hunter and square enix for final fantasy. I’ll be extra sad the day they too go the way of every other greedy lazy “AAA” game company…

At least indie devs care to make a good game and not try to make a money printing IP machine with some game like aspects in it.

THOSE MOTHER FUCKERS BOUGHT A RAINBOW!?

I’m impressed.

Throw more pop tarts at it to smother the fire!

Wow I haven’t thought about good eats in a long time! Alton Brown is awesome!

Nintendo:

MOAR! MOAR! MOOOAAARRR! IT IS NEVER ENOUGH!

They’re just referring to normal habits we all do like checking your oven for the family of mice you let live there before leaving for work or brushing your teeth one tooth at a time while watching the Flintstones in a language you don’t understand. We all do it.

you could have undiagnosed adhd which when untreated for a lifetime manifests as anxiety and depression.

I see all the adhd memes and comments that usually makes me feel like “hmm maybe I do have this” but I also see a bunch of people saying “we all think that even if we don’t have it” lol thanks again for the concern!

This is where I’m at too. I’m so fucking mad at the trajectory Microsuck is taking because I love indie games and getting into early access stuff and they often don’t work on Linux. Plus star citizen… Stupid anti cheat stuff doesn’t play nice with Linux :/

I appreciate the concern!

I have to try again I suppose. I kinda gave up after every med I tried turned me into a zombie and made work really difficult because all I wanted to do was sleep. CBD really helps stop a panic attack, but the majority of my father’s side of the family has anxiety issues so I think my brain is just broken lol

Society/economy of 2024 isn’t doing me any favors either lol
