That doesn't even make sense in context of what I said. Origins/Odyssey/Valhalla are a trio, like I described prior. Mirage is clearly the next change up.

Oh I hear you then. When I think of polish in the context of video games, I’m usually thinking about visual and mechanical polish. How creatures and objects move, how things look and feel. By that standard, I think Bethesda has really upped their game to a noticeable degree, even if there is still a lot more to do. But by your definition I can see what you mean! I just don’t usually refer to “polish“ in terms of story, and such when talking about video games

My understanding was that it was sent back but not struck down saying that it just didn’t fall under anti-terrorism laws, but I guess I was mistaken!

This is the best, most succinct, and fair assessment I’ve seen of Starfield since launch.

Man Outer Worlds was so cringe to me. I tried really hard to get into it but it felt like it just kept rehashing the same jokes over and over. “Haha I’m owned by a company and they’re cheap and I’m silly!” Just over and over and over. After 10-15hrs I put it down for good.
- Comment on Rating down at 77% 1 year ago:
that lacks polish
I’d say creation engine is showing its age more than it lacks polish. The game looks pretty good and I’ve encountered virtually no bugs so far. People’s faces are a bit off though, as many have pointed out.

it is as shameless as Ubisoft's rehashed games.
People keep saying this but I’d say at worst Ubisoft does games in pairs, occasionally trios. If you play AC: Odyssey and AC: Black Flag, I assure you they will be VERY different experiences. Mechanics/combat alone are a huge distinguishing factor.

Pretty sure SCOTUS has a case they’re hearing currently that may very well change the scope of section 230 so I’d maybe reserve your quips until after that shakes out lol

A lot of problems we don’t solve boil down to “it’s boring and expensive” lol it’s sad when you think about it

Quality of posts will go up too. There’s a direct correlation with (worse) quality and image posts.

Check out Pixelfed. It's basically fediverse instagram. That would probably be a very good platform for this.

- Comment on A little history on Reddit. From the politics subreddit with just 85,678 users in 2008 to 500 million active users today. Lemmy/Kbin will follow the same path. 1 year ago:
I’ve seen enough “stop the steal” and other MAGA nonsense unaddressed here currently has me worried it’ll be /r/politics all over again, unfortunately.
- Comment on I re-purchased a Sega 32X. I don't know why... 1 year ago:
It may not make a lot of sense to buy it again now for the nostalgia, especially with all the benefits of hindsight I have. Did it anyway.
Never, ever let this stop you from enjoying this hobby. Nothing about retrogaming collection makes sense. That's not the point!

We must be in different threads because I'm not seeing that. Unless you want to stretch that one comment about identity theft a fair bit.

The “dumb thing” to complain about is that they did not pay him any money.
They'd pay a celebrity for it. Why should we be any different?
It’s a dick move
Yes that's literally what everyone is saying. We aren't asserting "rights" on twitter or something.

It’s their platform they do whatever they want.
Yes.
What a dumb thing to complain about.
I mean if I had a social media account just taken from me without warning or recourse I'd at the very least be irritated. How about you give me your account password and just let me take over? You can just go make a new one.

I found once you got into act four or so of the story the game kind of became a slog, but there are some pretty great moments, and the protagonist is very well done. That being said, I think odyssey revises the changes much better and is just an unbelievable game

Exoprimal. It’s the exact dumb fun I want it to be with its own little sense of humor that actually works somewhat. If you have Gamepass it is a no-brainer. I’m not sure about $60 or $70 or whatever it’s retailing at yet but this will undoubtedly be a game with a huge surge in users when they start selling it for $30 and under. The PvPvE format works very well for it, it gives you a real sense of urgency and has you moving very quickly. Gives the fights and deaths real stakes that aren’t just resetting progression or something.
