Yeah and Minecraft is one of the games people have put the most hours into. People want a game that is fun and continues to be fun. That doesn’t require 600 people to do. It requires caring, intention, and understanding of what games actually provide for people. Not just a desire to sell more loot boxes or whatever.
I recommend Connect to everyone. Free, no ads at all, Canadian developer who is super active and has responded to every issue I’ve raised right away and usually fixed it by the next day, tons of customization options, all around the best Lemmy app I’ve used for a number of different reasons.
I’ve pretty much seen the opposite. Windows fanboys love to come up with excuses for why they COULDNT POSSIBLY switch to Linux but most of the Linux users I’ve seen are constantly trying to convince people that it’s NOT that intimidating and that you DON’T need to be a super genius or nerd to use it.
That’s kind of my point, why would you need that functionality in a console if your tv can already do it. Plus having to keep your cable box or whatever plugged into the console so it has to be on all the time.
How did this work through the Xbox? I know a lot of newer TVs can do this but did you have to route your tv cable through the Xbox to get it to work that way?
A good USB c cable and port can hold quite a bit of weight, I’ve easily picked my phone up by it as long as you don’t make any jerking movements. That’s a lot more weight than a few feet of even a very heavily shielded cable.
Oh yeah idk, thats the problem with those estimates is people don’t usually buy everything at full price, they rent or wait for sales or subscribe to a streaming service or gamepass, so even if you assume pepple would have bought everything they pirate, how do you assign a value to it. Like i wasn’t even thinking about movie tickets, i was thinking like 20 or 30 bucks for a bluray. Idk how much they are because i haven’t bought any in ages though lol.
Also 90% of the people who work on movies don’t usually get royalties. They’ve already been paid for their work, who cares if the production company CEO gets a few extta bucks?
Hi FBI. I will just say 5000 seems crazy low though, especially if you’re assuming a movie is $20-$30 and a game is like $10-$80. Dunno how you’d calculate tv shows but dvd/bluray seasons/box sets can get real expensive fast.
Ive also been playing with that mod and its awesome, really made the game feel so much smoother and more fluid. Ive been using the balanced mode though since the higher performance ones seemed to make everything look really foggy. FSR seems to work and look way better on the deck too. The only thing I’ve found so far about the gameplay that im not really fond of is that if you dont cycle out your reserve party they level so much slower and end up underleveled, so you have to keep switching uo your main party to make sure everyone is balanced. Also the platforming on the gestral beach is a fucking joke and i honestly think they might have put it in just as a tongue in cheek reference to how shit the game engine is.
Junkies also say “i need this for work”. In fact i bet thats a major contributing factor in a lot of addictions - not having 2-7 days free where you can detox and be a sweaty emotional disgusting mess.
Yeah this one so much. I think its still amazing and the two seasons can each kinda stand on their own, and still have satisfying endings, but just knowing that they had an entire 5 season arc planned out drives me crazy considering how great that show was.
Just played this on steamdeck and it was incredible. I really cant see it being that good on mobile though.
I wonder if there’s anything else you could 3d print that would help fight against corporate greed?
I have a DARE shirt that says ‘Drugs Are Really Expensive’ underneath and i feel like thats a more effective deterrent than anything they said in the program.
Iirc what.cd was freeleech for the first week, so i did go nuts. Downloaded anything that seemed popular that didn’t have a huge amount of seeders, and then after the freeleech period ended i downloaded basically every freeleech torrent i could find whether i wanted it or not, just for the seeding. This let me keep quite a good ratio despite having a terrible upload speed at the time. Alot of sites will also give bonus seeder points for uploading new torrents i think, especially if they have a request or bounty system.
Why would yhere always need to be hunger? Its been proven over and over that this is a solvable problem and we have more than enough resources to solve it. They even put a monetary amount on it and it could easily be solved by a single billionaire. And then we know that once people arent starving or desperate for shelter and constantly concerned about their basic needs and survival, crime goes way down. And why does there need to be war? Because the oil companies or mercenaries and military industrial complex demands it? Let them die and we could easily have a much better society that takes care of all peoples basic needs. Its really not that complicated.
Thats literally what everyone thought about hillary and about kamala the first time. I wouldnt bet on people’s dislike of trump who at least managed to win twice (somehow) to vote in kamala who has literally neve come close to winning.
You’re missing the point. Spiderman and assassins creed have already been made too. And people are tired of buying ‘that game you played last year but shinier and laggier and with 500 more meaningless fetch quests and collectibles to find’. Game companies will likely continue to refuse to realize this and actually innovate though, and will continue to throw more money and more people at their dying IPs with increasingly diminishing returns.
