I guess I just don’t see the appeal. If I wanted to interact with an AI, I can do it right now without launching a game to do it. And pointless NPCs are already one of the most annoying parts of games for me. I don’t want to waste my time reading meaningless dialogue from 100 characters trying to find the 1 person who will actually let me advance and continue playing the game. It will be even worse when they are all taking an unlimited stream of shit instead of 1 or 2 canned responses, because it will just be even harder to know who is wasting your time.

When a bunch of RPGs start doing that, they are all just going to start feeling the same.

I’m willing to keep an open mind until it releases, but that tells me that the gameplay will be nothing like the original.

I thought it was implying that all of those men had made out with her.

Why would I tell them about “the fediverse”? Tell them that you use Lemmy or Mastodon or whatever. If they are interested then give them a link to a good instance. That’s it.

Definitely give it another shot. It’s my favorite comedy show of all time. I don’t always fully appreciate them on the first watch though.

I think you should leave, on Netflix.

Under the current interpretation of the law, you have to make modifications to the ai generated image in order to retain some form of copyright over it.

How did BBS work? I think you had to dial their number directly like calling someone on the phone, right? How did you find BBS’s? Did you just have to know people who ran them or what? Was there a search engine or directory of BBS?

For me it’s the NES and N64. While they both have some great games to be sure, I feel that a lot of the games outside of their top 10 simply don’t hold up very well today. These systems were both limited by technical issues and were in eras when developers were still learning what makes a good 2d or 3d game.

I enjoyed it a lot during the open beta. Really looking forward to playing again soon.

When I was in school (long ago), I always kept to myself, never bothered anyone, but people still picked on me sometimes. Once I was sitting in class and another kid put me in a headlock, for no particular reason. He probably expected me to do nothing. I didn’t want to hurt him or start a commotion, but I punched right at his nose, and pulled my punch right before making contact. Well, this must have startled him a great deal, because he jumped back while letting out a loud fart. It reeked. The teacher came into the classroom and she had to clear everyone out because it smelled so bad. But anyways, I don’t think he ever messed with me again.

So basically, see if you can make them fart in front of everyone.

I feel like the issue could be largely resolved if developers would just make a lot of the downloads optional. For as long as I remember, installers for PC applications have given the user options for which parts of the applications they want to install. Yet for games these days, they just take an all or nothing approach. Let me skip the ultra textures, and all the extra choices in languages I don’t need. It seems like it should be such an easy thing to implement!

Did you look at the list? It’s there.

I see the problem as, most people on Lemmy are already signed up to an instance that they are happy with. If the instance offers something to really differentiate itself, such as a focus on certain types of communities, or different types of rules or moderation than most other instances, then it might have a chance at catching on. But otherwise, I feel like it would be very hard to promote an instance if its 95% the same as all the other instances.

Yeah, this seems like such an odd claim, because all one has to do is go to Kbin.social and the downvote buttons are right there.

Then for the next week your internal clock is messed up and you can’t actually fall asleep when you want to.

Learn some alphabets of foreign languages. Russian is fun because some of the characters looks like English letters but have completely different sounds. Korean is also cool because it looks crazy complex but it’s actually extremely simple.

Use it for a grilled cheese sandwich. Or just about any kind of sandwich.

This is the thing that most companies seem to obsess over these days: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_promoter_score

I think it’s just a fad.
