Bold of you to assume the Electoral College will still exist in 2030, or even 2028.

No, I think Forsaken (Dreaming City) is the oldest content still in the game. If you want to see the old campaign I’m sure there are playthroughs on YouTube you could watch.

Good, the game needs some fresh leadership. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that on the same day they announced this, Bungie also announced that all previous season passes will soon return to a kiosk in-game and you can finish them at any time (yes like the Helldivers model). Plus, players who never got the pass before will be able to buy them for a pretty reasonable price (around $6 USD I believe).

Unfortunately popular newsletter service that also puts your issues online to look like a blog. Has a lot of startup capital behind it so they’ve been paying some of their largest writers on top of subscriber revenue.
Big “marketplace of ideas” idiots who have allowed a lot of white supremacist and - as this and other situations exemplify - straight up Nazi content.
- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 4 weeks ago:
So was Twitter way back in the day (I’m talking ~ 2006 when I still worked in tech news). In a similar way, I think it’s up to us
canariesearly adopters to help them learn.There was a time when no one knew how to @ someone and the pound sign was still known as the pound sign. People learned (and yes, platforms got much better and more polished). They can learn again. But we teachers need patience and kindness when helping them.

Ghost can be self-hosted. Even WordPress these days has newsletter and payment systems that sound fairly easy to drop in.

Yeah, like someone please correct me if I’m wrong but the M chips are doing this without a big fat heavyloud separate GFX card—it’s just a lil’ CPU SoC. I’m impressed.

I like how the language is ‘claims responsibility.’ You know. Like terrorist groups do after an attack

It is completely normal to not want or enjoy driving. I don’t know where you live, but there are lots of areas and cities around the world where it easily possible to never own a car thanks to public transit and other readily available methods.
In the U.S. it can be tougher, but still possible. I live in Chicago and know plenty of people who are perfectly happy not owning a car. Personally I aspire to it, but my wife is a little car brained and it’s something we work ok.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy two longest running best friends. 2 months ago:
There can be a tricky balance between building sequels or something new. Sometimes there is more you can do in a world, and people enjoy returning to worlds when there is good reason to.
I think the recent Doom reboot trilogy is a masterclass example. Not everyone enjoys each game, people often have different favorites. But the point is they’re all Doom and yet id Software did something unique with each one. New mechanics, new ways to play, pushing boundaries of what came before.
Of course, with Greek mythology, there is plenty more source material to explore and build on in a setting like Hades. They certainly hit a great formula to do it, and The People® were clamoring for it. But with SG’s established preferences for going after new ideas instead of sequels, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them do something else after Hades 2. Or who knows, maybe they’ll be able to grow enough to work on multiple games at once. That could come with its own challenges, but plenty of studios have done it.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy two longest running best friends. 2 months ago:
I loved Bastion and Transistor and wished for sequels for both. But SG clearly seemed to prefer to not make sequels for its games all these years; to my knowledge, it has never made one. I’m not sure what or who changed at the company, but Hades 2 is an anomaly.
Has anyone interviewed someone at SG to ask sequel questions? If not, maybe someone will once H2 gets closer to officially shipping.
