- Comment on What challenge from a game isn't worth completing and what challenge from a game is worth completing? 3 days ago:
Regarding collectables-based challenges, in my experience, all collectables that don’t unlock content or aren’t some kind of upgrade are a waste of time.
I remember collecting all the figments in Psychonauts 1, how frustrating and time consuming it was and how it was near useless to the regression of the game. I love Psychonauts and I would like to play it again over and over, but I would not collect those pesky figments ever again.

- Comment on With Amino having shut down — could the Fediverse be a good alternative? 2 weeks ago:
I know. What I said was more aimed at focusing any efforts to promote the proliferation of fandoms in the fediverse on creating a good image of it for that purpose, rather than creating more projects that may not have the desired acceptance and reach.

- Comment on With Amino having shut down — could the Fediverse be a good alternative? 2 weeks ago:
While on a technical level, the fediverse is entirely capable of something similar to Amino, and a platform could be created that replicates its functionality 1:1, I believe the main problem is one of image.
On the outside, the fediverse is seen as an overly “nerd-centric” place, a place where “they only talk about Linux, FOSS,” and “nerdy” things in general. And it’s often the discussions around those topics that seem to have the most visibility around here, while the few communities about hobbies and fandoms that you can find have mostly modest to low interaction.
The thing is, no one likes to feel like they’re talking to themselves. That’s why many artists and people immersed in their fandoms gravitate to places like BlueSky or Tumblr, or don’t want to leave a cesspool like Twitter, even with their more hostile environments towards them: they have the perception that in those places they will have more opportunity to interact, whether that perception is unfounded or not.
If one create a platform like Amino, for fandoms and communities, I think the technical aspects are the least important thing. One have to create an image of an environment that is attractive and enjoyable so that people who are not so interested in technology will want to join.

Ironically, this is how a healthy economy should work, but with money passing through the hands of the working class.
Not just healthcare is only for the rich, but economic health is too.

- Comment on Once again, looking for PS2 game suggestions! 3 months ago:
You have to… No, You NEED to Play Downhill Domination. There is NO WAY you won’t have fun playing that, trust me.
Oh! And Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3! You don’t have to be a DBZ fan to have fun with that, is amazing and so chaotic!
Also, have you consider trying Devil May Cry 3? (Don’t worry about the number, it’s a precule). It’s kinda hard but so fun and satisfying.
No Final Fantasy because I’m not even sure where to start!
I had the same problem too, but after trying to play them chronologically (and failing), I learned that you can play any FF game at any time, cuz they are very unique and don’t actually relate one another.
Final Fantasy X is a great pick, for example, it helped me overcome my despise for Turn-base combat RPG.
And, if you’re up to some Big Robot Fight mayhem anime style, Zone of The Enders is Amazing.

- Comment on Nobody who complains about video games costing more than $60 ever considers inflation 3 months ago:
WE DON’T HAVE THE DAMN MONEY TO PAY FOR A FUCKING $90 MARIO KART GAME
And the prices back then were to offset the costs of physical distribution. Today, digital distribution costs publishers NOTHING.
These prices are not due to inflation, they are GREED.

THIS, EXACTLY THIS.
I find it strange to call today’s supers “heroes” when the least they do is help others. They look more like guys with superpowers beating each other up, more like Japanese Shonnen than anything else (mind you, I like Shonnen, but there’s a limit).
That’s why I love that in The Batman (2022) the climax is seeing Batman saving civilians, the same with James Gunn’s Superman.
I WANT TO SEE MORE SUPERHEROES BEING HEROIC, DAMN IT.
