  HE uses like 25% more power compared to the usual sensor. Meaning a huge decrease of about 2% in joycons battery life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 Teardown: Still Glued, Still Soldered, Still Drifting⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Nintendo doesn’t want to use Hall for the same reason neither of the Steam Decks have, the increased power consumption. From there it was easy for them to justify a magnetic locking mechanism for the new joycons.

  But also fuck Nintendo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As The Outer Worlds 2 hits $80, director says "we don't set the prices for our games" and wishes "everybody could play" Obsidian's new RPG⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The first game was like RPG soul food. It didn’t do anything new, the gameplay was fine and the story wasn’t bad. Nothing innovative but nothing poorly executed. I think people should look to the game as explanation for why Nintendo doesn’t make the ‘normal Mario game’ they want. Innovation is the simplest way to dress up a game, even if you like the loop it’s healthier if the sequel is different.

  Why is RPS calling this an Ocean 4X? The ocean literally shrinks as you play

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The point isn’t that capitalism is worse, but that it isn’t any better. Despite all the fancy clothes and powdered wigs there is still a class oppressing another class except now the oppressors enjoy far fewer violent deaths.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not now honey⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that’s Sims 3? So the game on screen might be a need for speed entry?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Punctuation⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep they won’t process payments from all sorts of websites

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lies of P is getting difficulty options to make the Soulslike more accessible⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I had a similar experience with the final boss of the Elden Ring DLC. Tried to beat him like 200 times and then quit playing for several months.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft bans words like "Palestine", "Gaza" and "Genocide" in all company emails and fires the employee who protested Microsoft during event.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess they’ll have to use the phrase ‘Israeli atrocities’ in the meantime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'VE BEEN WAITING TOO LONG⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You can’t write anything positive or affirming into Google, their shitty AI will always assume you’re coming from a place of knowledge

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'VE BEEN WAITING TOO LONG⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The two words at the end of that line are “oh Lord” not “hold on”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally a map to show me⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is international breast cup size a standard? That should give insight. I know UK and US are different.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Based⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have a circle of friends, invite them to post pictures of one of their hands. You will quickly discover that every hand is rather different. One of my buddies had a lighthearted meltdown over it. Not because he was ridiculed but because the game “destroyed [his] mental framework for thumbs”

  Fair use is a defense in US copyright cases, it’s a precedent not an allowance or law

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The controls really are awful, not sure how console folks can enjoy the game

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Baldurs Gate 3's voice acting so great that it ruined other games for me?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They recorded some lines for the custom character. They think aloud when you approach the gith gank squad.

  They also reverted a decision to have all the origin characters do a bizarre past tense narration that the narrator VA does present tense. Maybe they abandoned having the player character speak when they changed that course.

  And even moderately wealthy Americans don’t usually travel outside their country. If they do it’s usually from the airport to their hotel.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Silent Hill f has been banned in Australia, and no one knows why⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  RimjobWorld is a lewd framework for mods for that game, if you didn’t know

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why can't we go back to small phones?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean that’s kinda what the new razr is. I got one because Asus enbiggened their ZenPhone to normal dimensions. And the razr folds in half but it’s still as wide as the phablets we pass off as typical.

  The battery is still dense and the outer screen is still glass, so the weight distribution isn’t great without the extra length for your fingers to share the load. But it’s essentially an overgrown watch when it’s closed. I rarely open it, so it’s not like the external screen is useless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recommend me a steam deck game⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It works amazingly. Might be handy to have a cheat sheet of the button combos though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is AI making us stupider? Maybe, according to one of the world’s biggest AI companies.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s right in some instances. Not all books are healthful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam now warns about Early Access that have not been updated in months.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s interesting to me about this and other features is that they all actually benefit Valve, as long as the EU/Australia require them to issue refunds upon request. Without refunds then these features are simply charity, but presently it’s good business.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨World of Warcraft adds $90 mount to in game store⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There was a green mount similar to this one they added in BFA for a large sum of gold. But they claimed to dislike how it encouraged so many people to play the market and removed it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Former Paradox, CD Projekt and 11-bit devs reveal new 4X strategy RPG that splices Manor Lords with Crusader Kings⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand why it can’t be multiplayer with how long the feasts and other events can run. But I love playing these games with friends.

  If you like Dwarf Fortress’s adventure mode, but don’t mind a swap to a high sci fi setting: please give this game a shot, it’s the cheapest price it has had so far
