  I really enjoyed that the setting is more grounded than other games. Personally, I wouldn’t describe it as generic.

  Gameplay-wise it doesn’t do much interesting.

  Honest question: Why would you want a remake/remaster when the original can be played almost anywhere thanks to emulators? Is it just the legal acquisition of the game, or would you want to see some improvements to the game?

  I think that the use of em-dashes specifically is a result of either the preprocessing of the training data or postprocessing of the generated text. I doubt that the material the models are trained on (i.e. Reddit) contains more em-dashes that hyphens in the position of sentence breaks.

  But it definitely gets the use of dash as sentence break from people writing like that. If you ask ChatGPT in another language, whose users don’t generally use dashes, e.g. Slovak, it won’t use then as much.

  There are dozens of us that know how to type en- and em-dashes! Dozens I say!

  I did not know what a joint was. But I knew that miniature versions of things are cool as heck.

  I would have killed for this when I was ten. Love this!

  I’ve heard that Shadows is one of the better Assassin’s Creeds, but 100%-ing it still sounds like hell. There’s just too much to do in Ubisoft openworlds.

  I like that the companion seems to be more talkative.

  The first planet kinda drags on. The games gets slightly better after that. One of the DLC is quite good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Leading indie game devs recommend their favourite no code game engines⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This reminded me of a blog post I read recently, in which the author also says that if you want to make video games and you don’t know how to program, you should start with something small and simple. (It seems obvious, but people often start making a 3D game with a branching story and multiplayer and then quickly quit because they can’t get it working.)

  In my country we have these:

  This is a dvoukolák (lit. twowheeler). According to the internet it can carry up-to 240 kg. Dvoukoláks often have bigger wheels and they’re not collapsible.

  I looked on American Amazon and on Walmart’s website and I couldn’t find anything like it. Bike trailers seem to be closest to a dvoukolák.

  It’s the blocks! (I never felt like I could create good looking buildings using the walls-stick-to-the-floor building system that NMS and other games use.)
