    • FF7 Crisis core is my favorite game ever. The gameplay, story, voice acting and music are all top notch.

    • DEF Jam Fight for NY is another PSP favorite for me. I really liked the combat and customization options for your character. It was just an enormous fun game.

    • Daxter was the first PSP game I played and it was also just an really fun and good game.

    • Dissidia Final Fantasy is als just a really good game with an amazing combat system.

    • The naruto games were really good. I think it was the ultimate ninja heroes games that had this interesting gameplay and also a story mechanic with an floor system that you had to climb and play through.

    • Bleach heat the soul series are fun fighting games. I think not all of them were released in the west but I recommend them because the gameplay was super fun.



  • It is Random chance.

    I have read your comments;

    “I think it’s probably doomed. It’ll never overtake reddit. But, it’ll be a nice, quiet, alternative.”

    No one knows if it is doomed.

    You have to start somewhere but you can’t expect a platform that has seen an huge influx of users the past weeks to immediately operate on the scale of what Reddit does.

    “I humbly apologize for my personal, speculative, opinion about the unknowable future. The downvotes have made me realize my math was wrong, my opinion is wrong, and I am wrong. My corrected opinion is that Lemmy will overtake Meta, Mastadon, Twitter, and Google (wtf is reddit!?), and every upvote will be worth $1000, making everyone rich! Or, we can have fun guessing, and wait and see how things go. I hope they go well!”

    Who is claiming the above?

    The fun thing is that Mastodon is in your list and before the fuckery with Twitter it didn’t really have traction.

    Why can’t lemmy/Kbin be the same in a year from now?

    The problem for Reddit, is that it made people actually look for alternatives. It is stupid for a competitor to make it’s customers aware of the competition, but Reddit did exactly that.

    Maybe it flops, maybe it stays “niche”, maybe it explodes in popularity.

    I think it is indeed random chance and just being at the right place at the right time.


  • Should we care that other people still use reddit?

    Do you have to chose one or the other?

    Why are people so hell bent to “take over” Reddit?

    I found an alternative in Kbin and Lemmy that suits my needs and focuses on user experience and growing communities instead of growing the pockets of a handful of people.

    I decide to not use Reddit anymore because the upper echelon can go fuck themselves.

    Is it so weird to have a set of values and stop using a service/product, because they cross the boundaries one has set for themselves?

    I have used Reddit for more than a decade and I haven’t missed it all.

    I am here because I enjoy it and not because I have a deeper desire for Reddit to evaporate out of nowhere.






  • “In a pinned message on r/funny, the biggest subreddit to go private before recently reopening, a moderator implored Reddit “to listen to its moderators, its contributors, and its everyday users” and asked it to “not tacitly enable bad actors by working against your volunteers.” r/Apple also recently reopened after being closed out of fears that it would be forcibly reopened. “We want the best for this community and have no choice but to open it back up — or have it opened for us,” a moderator wrote. Another r/Apple mod is resigning in protest of Reddit’s actions.”

    Imagine having no spine, except that 1 mod (kudos to that person).

    Why even bother to blackout if you are gonna bulge after the first threat?

    Do even the subs themselves thought that 48 hours was enough to do something? Can someone be that naive?

    I thought the subs were actually gonna abide by what the community wants?

    How is opening up helping the community when you voted to be down indefinitely just 1 day ago? It is actively screwing them because it shows Reddit is right.

    Following it up with a pinned message telling how you still not agree, b*tch please.

    Just stop with the posturing then and bend over for Reddit already.


  • Which is a good case against the centralization of information.

    I have been way to comfortable just using Reddit as my source of information with the usage of 3rd party applications.

    What if Reddit puts the subreddits behind a paywall?

    What if Reddit is gonna demand that every subreddit generates an x percentage revenue just to exist?

    What Reddit has shown with their actions is that they are gonna put monetization of their userbase first and user experience somewhere in 10th.

    The possibilities to screw the users in regards of the information they consume is…worrying.

    It will end up the same as 9gag did. Some weird facebook/instagram/tik tok clone used for people who have an attention span of 60 seconds.
