I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it’s not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.

P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now—compared to modern games and storytelling—than rose-colored glasses might suggest.

I had no trouble recognizing him.

Technical people can struggle when a choice isn’t a zero or a one.

I mean, I interpreted that as acknowledgement that Lemmy is still 1% the size of Reddit, for example.

More walking simulator less actual gaming.

See… I think it’s kind of a bad game for all the same reasons.

I think I bounce pretty hard off the stated intent to make the player feel the suffering of living through war. I’m not going to play a game that intentionally sets me up to fail.

Yes. Cyberpunk and I were oil and water when it was first released. The 2.0 patch made it a different game, and for some magical reason, I jive with it now. It’s one of the best realized worlds. I just finished my first playthrough and I’ll buy the DLC and play again soon!

“Sleep Timer” by CARECON GmbH. Its indispensable for adding a generic sleep timer to any audio or video that does not have such a feature.

Which one? I use “White Noise” by TMSOFT. It’s UI is from 5-7 years ago, but it still works really well. It’s mostly a background noise maker–and has lots of variety–rather than strictly white noise.

I’ve never heard of this. Interesting!

Which comes first, the comment or the content?

I’m happy to comment, but (1) it takes a lot of effort to make a good comment, and I’m not sure I regularly have meaningful things to contribute, and (2) many posts are retread memes, reposts, or iterations on slow-moving US political nonsense, and as such not worthy of commenting, and (3) new newsworthy posts are rare.

This is when I browse everything. It’s even worse in my subscribed communities.

That is such a good and sad film.

What about if the product arrives with damaged or missing pieces (and the packaging is fine)? Serious question.

I consider it “cheering for the underdog.” When they are no longer the underdog, then the cheering ceases.

I’m thinking of it like the micro plastics that were purposely added to bath wash and soap, and now are banned for use in that purpose. I’m not entirely sure I understand the logic behind why those are (justifiably) banned, but microfiber cloths are not.

My stupid question is because I haven’t seen any other news articles specifically talking about microfiber and its contribution to micro plastics.

These are interesting comments but they also do not motivate change: there’s nothing you–the one person your are–can do because the problem is so much bigger than you are.
