Isaac is fantastic. With all the expansions, it’s hundreds of hours of goodness.
Grim Dawn didn’t really click with me. None of the classes I tried felt good, and the constellations stuff is hard to work with. There’s a lot of options scattered around, and I feel like I have to read and dozens of things to plan out a coherent build. Or use a guide, which is un-fun.
Path of Exile 2 is my current arpg
Leadership are mostly idiots. They don’t know how work gets done. They think like “wow it produced so many lines of code!” and don’t know that’s not a useful metric.
My job had Microsoft do a four hour copilot demo for the entire team last week. (Surely an immense expense. They won’t pay for most people to be full time with benefits). The guy used copilot to make a regex to parse html. A little surprised zalgo didn’t show up.
I forgot how much I hated working in an office. Our desks were directly under the vent, so we’d get blasted with cold air. Sales was off in a corner, where it was too warm for them. No amount of adjusting the thermostat would change their local temperature, but they’d try anyway.
In addition to being climate criminals who should all be stripped of their nice things, people who mandate in-office are often causing personal, physical, suffering.
None of the fines for these things are enough. It should be, like, the company is nationalized. The leadership is sentenced to years of community service and barred from working in the industry for life.
That’s also a problem, yes. DRM free is best. I’m extremely reluctant to pay for a game I can’t play offline as much as I want. (Barring MMOs and the like, I guess. Don’t play a lot of those, myself)
All the wealth is being concentrated in the hands of too few people. I’m not going to buy a $120 game when my salary is down, or I’m just laid off.
I’m just waiting for some RTO’d workers to be told they’re being mass laid off, and instead they just beat the manager to death. The irony of it only being possible because they were forced back into the office will be delicious.
It’s a demand pointed out the entire capitalist hellscape, of which epic is a part, not them specifically.
Sweeney’s a billionaire. He could be pushing for labor to have a bigger slice of the pie. But he won’t, because he’s a soulless husk.
I don’t have the personal budget to buy a lot of games. Pay me more and I’ll spend more. Otherwise, fuck all the way off
I remember being impressed when an NPC commented on how I wore combat armor to a clandestine meeting. There were a lot of little touches that were nice.
Is this a joke?
Really depends on the details. If I can be an Awakened Mage then definitely that. With just the starting stats of mind/space or fate/time I would fix the world.
Cars and car-first infrastructure have been massively bad ecologically, socially, and environmentally.
The people at work who use AI the most know the least. They add very little value. AI is rather anti-labor in that way.
I’d also rather have some people who are slow and competent than fast and hallucinating
Have some dark fantasies, but probably not do anything about it. If I did see someone damaging the car or the owner, I don’t know what you’re talking about.

File under “some problems have easy solutions but would upset a handful of rich people”, or maybe “…but would upset unqualified idiots”
Chex Quest was legitimately good, but mostly because it was just a Doom mod
Corporations shouldn’t be allowed to buy each other
It’s hard for me to justify buying anything since my job is so crap. I have the money, I just feel spiteful and angry at capitalism.
