- Comment on Some of Starfield’s planets are meant to be empty by design - but that’s not boring, Bethesda insists 1 year ago:
I think Microsoft can be thanked for that. They buckled down and lent their support to make sure Starfield didn't have constant crashes and backwards flying spaceships and whatnot.

Thanks for the recommendations! I'll look into these, and already have dipped my feet into stuff like Everspace 2 and Outer Wilds. Some of these are on Xbox Game Pass as well, which is cool.
- Comment on Tim Sweeney says Epic Games Store is open to devs using generative AI 1 year ago:
It'll prevent indie artists from having their work plagiarized over and over without payment from indie "devs" who honestly shouldn't have the right to exist as "developers" if they can't afford to actually hire artists and such.
It'd be one thing if they made an agreement to get assets from artists for cheap or for free as a favor, but just plain putting them all out of business permanently by letting a machine steal their work forever is another thing entirely.

Aren't human beings also just primates too? I think this'd apply to us as well.
- Comment on Robotic dog-mounted rifles are now a thing thanks to US Army 1 year ago:
Only thing shocking about this is that it took this long. Any drone capable of carrying a weapon was going to get one. I mean, look at Ukraine right now. Consumer drones with soda bottle improvised explosives and cardboard drones. I can see a future where most warfare is drone vs drone, to see who can hit the other's supply lines / storage first.
The way Russia's turtling with illegal mines, drones are basically one of the only ways to attack without taking massive losses while also moving slowly and being sitting ducks for artillery.
- Comment on In its first week, Immortals of Aveum had a peak count of just 751 players on Steam. 1 year ago:
Not surprising, but disappointing. The premise was interesting (first person magic shooter) but the execution was tepid. The presentation / atmosphere, the generic graphics, the dopey dialogue, the lack of an interesting story. A lot of the success of games like Halo is how the world sucks you in with its atmosphere and storyline, I think developers really underestimate how much that matters in a single player game. Cinematogrophy is important, the feel of an experience is more than the simple gameplay of moving a character around and pushing buttons.
- Comment on victims of the poloygyny :( 1 year ago:
Honestly, while I don't like what these guys do. I definitely think they have some mental illness issues that should be treated, and some of them may be neurodivergent or have some physical issues with their brains or bodies that might make them unhinged that could be possibly treated with medication.
Dead serious here. People this bad generally have been abused / brainwashed when they were young, and some of them seem to have certain disabilities. Not saying they don't act like total trash, just that there's probably reasons behind it for at least some of these people. Plus, nowadays there are online cults waiting to pick them up and brainwash them when they're vulnerable. Used to be you had to go in person to a cult in the past.
- Comment on TweetDeck is officially becoming a paid service 1 year ago:
Makes me think of the Privateer / Elite style X spaceship games, but that's probably because of my personal bias towards games like that.
Everyone else would probably think Porn or the X-games first.
- Comment on It even fits in my pant pockets. 1 year ago:
From the place Deadpool and all those 90's heroes do.

Gigabyte? Pshh, no wonder! Should've used Asrock.
