  playing whatever you claim DOES however require you to download the launcher. so ill still pass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's going on with Borderlands 2? Steam is giving it for free, but the game has 23% positive recent reviews.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  absolutely. Steam is not to mess with and takes such matters quite seriously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The first weekly What Are You Playing? thread!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  my favourite success story. finding devs that care about its players in an industry that only cares about profit is truly special. rock and stone brother

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So where are people going?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  been invited to hexbear for being an owl lol…

  apparently they have an owl collection

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Son received an expensive gift from his new best friend, should I ask him to return it?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be more concerned about teaching your son not to take advantage of his rich friend who constantly asks him for his money and to buy him things ir whatever

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that after leaving power, Margaret Thatcher became a lobbyist for tobacco companies⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I have no idea who Thatcher is nor do i care, so i technically didnt know and will proceed to not know after i inevitably forget that name by the next post

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  this is why lemmy will never beat corporate owned services like reddit. the inconvenience is enough for most people to not even give it a chance

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  people calling every tactic to keep users more engaged a dark pattern these days is giving me teenagers using therapy speak in wrong ways vibes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  as someone who barely understands this whole fediverse stuff and had a difficult enough time just choosing and getting into an instance after leaving reddit, what does this mean for me?

  is my account and all its posts, comments, activity and bookmarks just gonna be gone?

  can that stuff be imported into a different instance?

  this sounds like a huge pain in the ass, and my plan in picking a bigger instance in the hope it wouldnt just go off the rails or shut down apparently backfired.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My mom tells me I should cut dad off for cheating on her, am I a bad person for not wanting to do so?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I can see where your mom is coming from. She got cheated on and to her it looks like you still support him despite the awful things he did.

  If he was Wifebeater and beat her instead, would you still support or “be friends” with your dad? probably not right? So why does Physical abuse cross the line but not emotional abuse?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A postal worker in Harlem attacked a trans woman. She fought back and fatally stabbed him in self-defense. This is how the NY Post framed it.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  this post is complete dogshit. “self defense” my ass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube tops Disney and Netflix in TV viewing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  well, even if every person on earth watched it, theres hundreds of thousands of new people being born every day who havent. thats not even counting rewatchers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Helldivers 2 and Palworld devs wish players understood that 'easy' additions and updates are sometimes really hard: 'That's half a year's work. That takes six months'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  closer to 2 years. its crazy how incompetent crytek is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Helldivers 2 and Palworld devs wish players understood that 'easy' additions and updates are sometimes really hard: 'That's half a year's work. That takes six months'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  if it takes you 6 months to add a new fundamental game mechanic then thats understandable

  if it takes you 6 months to remove an unnecessary popup then youre incompetent.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨70% of games that require internet get destroyed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  it do be like that. cant stop a gamer from enjoying good game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨70% of games that require internet get destroyed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  they do own the pokemon IP though, so even though they dont develop the game, i’d argue its still their fault if the game turns out ass. its time they put some stress on gamefreak to do better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨70% of games that require internet get destroyed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  have you seen any of their pokemon releases the past years? its actually embarassing how bad the games are in terms of quality and polish, for a game that is the biggest IP in the world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Duolingo deletes all its TikTok videos after AI backlash—and then returns with a strange message⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  considering they said theyre gonna replace all their employees with ai, i wouldnt be surprised if this is the marketing departments’ last backlash.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨70% of games that require internet get destroyed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  you can say that about a lot of games and their devs. tons of great indie games out there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨70% of games that require internet get destroyed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  “one of the last good game devs” brother there has been so much drama with nintendo being a god awful company the past year ALONE.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  how would they stop men from participating?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not only is that not a quote, but its not even right. Piracy was never stealing, its copyright infringement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to get rid of Whatsapp?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  you could also just refuse to use whatsapp and tell your friends to get your alternative if they want to stay in contact with you. if they refuse, their loss.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Note: before tariffs⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  sure, but that doesnt even mention the difference in quality and value that the pile of dogshit “pirate game” has compared to the latest innovative mario kart.
