This makes me realize that I can’t think of hardly any videogames with a black character at the forefront.

Sure, there are black playable characters in MOBAs and MMOs, but how many story-driven games have black characters at the forefront?

The most recent one I can think of is Alan Wake 2. And Spider-Man Miles Morales. But there really are so few compared to those with white main characters. Which is sad.

The biggest problem is that federation splits the communities between instances. So a single interest may have 5-10 different communities, all with fewer users than on an equivalent subreddit.

I’ve been saying this since the beginning, Lemmy needs a way to follow topics that allow you to subscribe to all related communities at once. And posting to a topic on one community allows it to show up across different communities of the same topic.

They’re the baristas. Because at least they can make latte art while they scrounge for tips from the tip jar.

It’s only a first version. I’m sure with time, it’ll get even better.

People are literally only asking for the same console, a few refinements, and with better performing internals.

The form factor is excellent, if a bit flimsy. But games like TOTK and whatever next 3D Mario game comes out deserve to have better graphical fidelity than what the current switch can put out. I stopped playing TOTK because I just kept getting framerate drops.

Please give the Switch 2 more powerful internals!

Gonna sideload cocaine while I mainline heroin.

And there’s never been a worse time to be making them.

The industry keeps consolidating and there were a ton of layoffs, despite great profits.

This year was great, but sad.

It’s better than arguing with the customer.

Simple explanations like “we felt we were under X constraints” or “our engine didn’t handle the loading times as well as we had hoped” would be just fine.

Instead, they just seem to be telling the players they’re wrong for disagreeing with many of the design decisions made

I’m realizing now that this would have been super useful when I worked in Loss Prevention way back when. Wish I had known…

Seriously, Adobe is up there for having some of the most anti-consumer product policies ever.

They’re a shit company that deserves to die.

And if you’re down on a planet you can, but there is no magic to be found because it’s all procedurally generated emptiness between copy-pasted points of interest.

I think the perfect example of this are the caves that show up sometimes.

First time I found one, I thought “neat, I wonder what’s in there.” So I go exploring and find out that… nothing. Nothing is in there. It’s just an empty cave. So I find a second one, hoping that was a fluke and again… nothing.

The procedurally generated content is severely lacking in a reason for even existing.Nothing is worth exploring in Starfield because there’s just nothing there.

Oh gross. Yeah, that’s not okay.

Thanks for the clarification

Why is someone using Outlook to sync a different email address?

Why not keep the apps separate? Or use the Mail app built into Windows?

Seriously, someone explain the use case here because I don’t understand. If you’re using an outlook account, MS already has all that stuff. And if you don’t have an Outlook account, why are you using Outlook?

I personally like Argon a lot.

Radon kinda looks like a fancy Comic Sans

I see so many people excusing Bethesda’s poor design choices and lack of content by saying mods will fix them.

That may be true, but the publisher making hundreds of millions shouldn’t be offloading their work onto the free labor of the community.

Never realized I’d share so much in common with it.

Pretty sure that was Abraham Lincoln

I pay for YouTube and I think people need to stop complaining so much about ads if they’re not willing to support the infrastructure or the creators they likely watch hours and hours of content from.

I also think Google is charging too much and should decouple music from videos, but that’s another subject.
