Or try having a relationship with your friend? A relationship is basically a good friendship with shared responsibilities (and sex, if you’ve got the time). You’re almost there already.

Yeah, that’s true.

Beside what Citizen Kong said, I wouldn’t start playing a game right after release. Give them a few weeks to iron out the bugs.

I think it would fit better in the Firefox community: https://fedia.io/m/firefox

Hey guys, is anyone playing tonight?

Lemmy itself has a language filter you can use: https://lemmy.world/post/6148271

StarCraft 2 still looks amazing.

Isn’t the first issue fixed with Scaled sorting?

You can follow Twitter accounts from Mastodon.

Fuck not cropping out the reddit bar.

Could it be comparable to the rise and decline of Westerns?

Was it The Sandman?

Pluralistic.net: Cory Doctorow writes really interesting posts about tech and privacy.

Maybe you could create a community for blog readers.

I still check some niche subreddits every few weeks, but only on my desktop, with RES. It’s a bummer that not every community is present on Lemmy yet, because I’m missing certain news and events now.

It can be fun to look at the completion rate for achievements like “finished the tutorial”, “beat the first boss” and “reach the good ending”. In some games it’s surprisingly low.

I can read this text in thirty seconds without having to find my headphones.

Fair enough. I didn’t mean to say it was easy. Took me about eight years to realise I needed to work on myself, and then a few more to actually do so . Back then pick-up artists were still a major thing, so I learned and then had to unlearn all that bullshit.

However, things won’t get better if we’re treating young men as poor, helpless victims of society and the YouTube algorithm, instead of treating them like, you know, men, and telling them to take responsibility for their lives and online habits. It’s just the same victim complex with a new narrative.

One of my favourite movies/books is Fight Club, because it takes this societal dissatisfaction and tells you to get over it by working on yourself. You’re not a victim, because you still have the power to change yourself. (Of course, the whole descent into violent madness isn’t something to aspire.) I feel that notion is sorely absent in this discussion.

“Needless to say,…”

[Says it anyway]

Oof, beehaw only just gave me this notification.

Haha, I’m also not getting any notifications because my app doesn’t support them yet xD Better late than never!

it felt closer to a bioware game like kotor than it did a bethesda game.

Now that you mention it, it does! I really liked the KotOR games, so that’s probably why Outer Worlds clicked as much for me as it did. I did try replaying KotOR a while ago, but I was bothered by how old it felt. I’ve never finished Mass Effect though, so maybe I should. And Dragon Age: Origins is said to be the last “real” Bioware RPG, so that’s also interesting.

It’s just too bad those games are all so old. I’m currently playing Fallout: New Vegas because I’d never finished it and I’m trying to get into a habit of actually finishing games, but the transition back from OW to FNV was quite a shock. It’s not just graphics; older UIs can be really bad. I tried getting back into a game of Fallout 1, but it felt like just playing the game cost way too much effort.

I totally recommend Kingdom Come deliverance, it’s one of my favorites.

Thanks for the rec! I’ve put it a bit higher on my backlog, after Disco Elysium and BG3. Great stuff ahead :)
