I don’t know if it’s amazing writing, but I was cringing less often with this one than i was with ‘it takes two’

Not the kind of game I enjoy playing very often, but it’s been great watching streamers try it out. It just looks fun.

I’ve heard them called “search-action” games before, for people who dislike “metroidvania.”

Probably better to use a more general community for the time being, yeah

It might be nice to have a community or something where people link interesting blog posts or blogs. Maybe there is one? (plz share the link if there is!) I always used to find new blogs from people who did like weekly good post round-ups.

just read it as ‘flow market,’ realized it was german, and looked up the word. it doesn’t look weird at first glance.

I hate inventory management, because it takes away from the fun parts of the game. When it is the game, they’ve made the effort to make it fun (or it’s just a bad game). If you like puzzle games, an inventory managenent game is just one of those, basically. It stands on how good the puzzles are.

I thought the cropping was just because the op was making a 69 joke

i’m curious, too. the vague idea i got was that the app just launched, people are pissed at meta, and the word pixelfed was banned on a site, causing a Streisand effect. i could just be spreading rumors, though.

I recently adopted a pet, and I keep wondering which new social media can replace what facebook offers to animal shelters and other charity orgs. Like, so long as they get that stream of donations, adoptions, and volunteers directly from facebook, they aren’t leaving without hurting their #1 priority.

Interesting to read what the modding community has been doing with old handholds.

His positions have swung around a lot, and apparently he’s inclined to depression and moods swings? I hope he’s come out of the cult thinking, at least, and making a new game is a sign he’s not in that obsessive mindset anymore. I’m not interested in giving him my money, but it’d be better for everyone if he wasn’t into conspiracies.

His controversy section on wikipedia is fascinating. Is he still a Q believer?

It’s generally implemented in a way that takes away fun. If a game had fun fights that were always intended to be strategic, it’d be ok, but when you have to kill identical mob after identical mob to progress in the plot, i don’t see the point.

i remember getting bored and annoyed near the end of oblivion.

Mario looks so depressed in that first screenshot for some reason

I think that having a choice about what instance you join and whether it’s liberal or conserative about defederating is the beauty of federation. someone might want to be on an instance that’s quick on the trigger about banning for transphobia, racism, etc, because they’re going through some shit in their lives, and later want to experience the greater variety of an instance where banning takes more consideration.

Like, I think you’re right about what you want for you, but people wanting different things and being able to get it is pretty great.

Whenever I’m reminded it exists, I go over there and find some people to follow. So, thanks!

It gave me an emotional reaction, for sure, so it’s Art!

I was wondering if he was still around and he is but he had a bunch of paintings stolen a couple years ago while he was in the hospital.
