You know there are a shit load of games with attractive female leads and amazing gameplay right?
You say it as if developers are terrified to make attractive girl characters…
- Comment on After 10,000+ hours grinding, MapleStory's first level 300 player slams the brakes at 299.99 to rant about the MMO and then quit, all on a dev-promoted stream 3 weeks ago:
Exactly. It is a really great game and the grinding can be very fun with the character skill explosions wiping out entire screens worth of mobs.
When the game released, the only micro transactions were clothing for your character and a pet that could pick up items automatically. Its really sad they didn’t just keep it that way.
A few months ago they got in deep shit because the gacha part apparently sometimes didn’t contain the low chance stuff at all. So you could pay a million dollars and you would never get it.
Another amazing game ruined by greed 💔

Oh thats great! Thanks for the notice :)
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 3 weeks ago:
If you want the characters, yeah. I have been playing since it came out and never paid a cent.
While playing you get a ton of the gems you need to get characters. I play for the story and the world and music etc. If i get a character, that’s great. If i don’t, i don’t.
The whole game and story and world is free. Only the characters cost gems.
The only part to me that is pay to win is the abyss, but even that i got through with my free characters.
Also, it’s not nice to tell me my hobby isn’t healthy when you don’t know me or how i play.
- Comment on Windows 11 Start menu ads are now rolling out to everyone 3 weeks ago:
Its not that easy. There is no alternative for some of the big games. I play genshin impact and honkai star rail and these games do not run on linux.
I use linux but keep windows dual booted purely for these games.
Asking people to give up their hobby is not a solution.

If they use the speech tech on top of it, you wouldn’t even know if you were talking to the person you think you are.
- Comment on Discord Users Are Being Tracked Through Data-Scraping Site 4 weeks ago:
They are, but only discord has that data. Now any dick that wants to harass somebody can get a LOT of info on people very easily.
Discord shouldn’t have all that data either but you get my point.

I fucking love robotics. It looks sick but the way it gets up is like something from a nightmare.
- Comment on 70 percent of devs unsure of live-service games sustainability 4 weeks ago:
The ONLY GaaS game i have ever liked is genshin impact. I like that there is a ton of content that is completely free. And i don’t really care about having strong maxed out characters so I’m just enjoying the world and story.
Besides that, i hate GaaS. Every company wants to make one and they all fail. Just give me my nice stories and gameplay and I’m good.

- Comment on YouTube’s ad blocker crackdown now includes third-party apps 4 weeks ago:
I refuse to use the official youtube app. Its so trash… I use newpipe and its amazing to just have all my favorite videos bookmarked locally in different lists.
If they take that away from me i will just stop using youtube.

- Comment on Discord Shuts Down Servers for Switch Emulators Suyu & Sudachi; Disables Lead Developers Account As Well 5 weeks ago:
If they REALLY want it to be like discord, why not use Revolt?
I don’t understand.
One that really ticked me off was that “the legend of zelda ocarina of time” pc build “ship of harkinian”.
I have never had such a tough time installing something. You have to do everything through their discord and it was a complete fucking mess.

- Comment on Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads 1 month ago:
I remember having an argument with my teacher in college about this. He asked us what we would do if we were asked to code something that could be used for things you personally don’t agree with such as the government using tools to “help” but also remove peoples privacy. Or corporations being able to show you more ads. I told him i would refuse. And he said that it would be my job though and sometimes you have to do things you don’t like. So i told him i would quit. And for some reason he could not really comprehend that and we got into an argument.

- Comment on When Vice Shuts Down, Where Will its Articles Go? 2 months ago:
Probably the wrong place to ask, but does archive.org backup everything multiple times? The amount they have saved is absolutely nuts. They depend on donations and i just wonder if content they have had for awhile is still backed up to newer harddrives after a few years?

My phone is now 7 years old and it still works perfectly. Maybe not the newest of the newest games, but i don’t care for games on my phone anyways. And the amazing contributors keeping lineageos up to date for my phone model makes me not need a newer phone :)

- Comment on TikTok faces calls for ban amid claims of anti-Israel ‘indoctrination’ 2 months ago:
But thats such a dumb reason considering the shit that facebook collects and instagram etc. Over the years it has come out that they collect so much damn data. They even did psychological experiments on teenagers by fucking with their timeline and see if they can change how they feel.
theguardian.com/…/facebook-users-emotions-news-fe…
They are tracking so much stuff inside peoples phones. They track everything they do and sell it for money.
And don’t even get me started on google.
You and congress are all up in arms when china or russia does it but are happy happy joy joy when american government or corporations do it themselves.
A couple of corporations own most of the media/news in america and that is all completely fine. Congress doesn’t give a single fuck about any of that.
Its the hypocrisy that pisses me off. No corporations or government should have all this data and manipulate users. But its not a problem at all unless a foreign corporation does it.
And to then ban it in the name of privacy. “Only we can abuse americans! 😠”. Its ridiculous.

Right because its chinese owned? What is wrong with that? Or is it only okay when a white western dude owns the company?
