- Comment on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Tops 4.4 million sales - IGN 17 hours ago:
I self-inflicted some pain like that for me as well.
I got close to the end of Act 2 and my friend said that the difficulty was too easy and I breezing pass everything and to switch it to Expert. Well guess what. I didn’t level, upgrade or put my Pictos in a way to deal with it. So most of my boss fights turned from a close-win into 45 minutes of me dying a lot. Like, I’d be one-shotted so often.
I then took some time and then cashed in some Lumina for stories and then actually put some strats in and went through the skill tree. I think it was worthwhile in the end but it totally changed the experience for me.
- Comment on Day 425 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing 1 day ago:
I really wanted to like the remakes.
Playing the FF7 remake felt really dated in terms of a lot of things. After playing God of War and others, the cinematics felt cheesy and less cohesive now in FF … I didn’t care for much of any of the voice acting. A lot of the side quests didn’t fit “in world” to me. The heck do I care about some lost kittens? Not sure what’s going on with the “ghosts”. I didn’t like the combat and found it annoying. Which is strange because I enjoyed FF15: The backstreet boys edition and even Guardians.
On the positives, I felt if I could take a screenshot of any part of the game and sent it back to the younger version of me … My mind would be blown. I’d just stop the game several times to just admire the scenery and the look.
spoilers!
Fighting Sephiroth so many times felt odd. I felt it feel off story-wise.
Everyone loves FF 7 remake and all that and I know I’m in minority but it put me off Rebirth. I’m happy other people enjoy it now though. I just wish I was one of them.

I’m a talkative person and also quite shy at times! I’ve been called both quiet and too loud/too much.
It happens. I don’t feel the need to put them down as I didn’t think that was their intent to do so to me.

I think the patient was like a tyrant dude played by James Earl Jones: house.fandom.com/wiki/President_Dibala.
- Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household 2 weeks ago:
I’ll join you in the downvotes. There’s many reasons to hate YouTube. Asking them to pay for video content to everyone for free is a bit silly.
I’m also not saying you shouldn’t use alternatives or run an ad-blocker. Those are cool. I just find it funny how someone is saying: “I get some benefit in paying for this service” results in such backlash, lol.

I’m sure whoever is in charge into the government, who will have no interests in this, is going to definitely look into Tesla.
- Comment on The time and expense of commuting is theft, if that job can be done from home. 2 weeks ago:
I take a bus and then walk … half hour or so on the bus and half hour or so of walking. If I drive it’s like 35-45 minutes?
However, I’m always more tired when I arrive there. Also, I’m not a fan of finding parking and stuff around the office.
- Comment on THE NEXT CLANKER BETTER DO MY GODDAMN DISHES 3 weeks ago:
I understand all of that, but my parents that won’t move of my house will absolutely not use them. They’d rather sit there with the water running for hours while they watch soaps.

- Comment on From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg 3 weeks ago:
Right because lesbians should only exist in pornos (like the GGW ones Snoop promoted at one point). Definitely not in real life, right Snoop?
Fucks sake, we can’t depict two people in love because you can’t explain it to your grandson? Should we not depict space travel or is he a rocket scientist that we don’t know about?
- Comment on Many primary school kids will never have a male teacher, and experts say that's a problem 3 weeks ago:
I wanted to be a teacher since I was 6 years old. My brother taught me so much growing up and I realized my peers didn’t know as much. I got a lot of satisfaction from getting my friends - who were trouble makers - into doing well at school. I always got them to a comfort level where they could ask obviously dumb questions. I can’t afford to trade that in, in this economy.
Although, most people say the teachers who are idealistic like myself don’t last. The ones that treat it like a job do.

- Comment on Dik Piks 2 months ago:
It’s just painting a picture. The story could just as easily been putting together a family dinner and focusing on what everyone’s preferences that you’ve learned over the years. Or something more Lemmy based would be dealing with a production issue as a developer and then BAM dick pic.
It’s just story telling to me.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 2 months ago:
apart from not having a car
I think they were implying that if that was not something that was negotiable then you could move onto reducing red meat intake.

I mean, he’s said before that shitty code doesn’t make for a good or bad game. He gave examples of lots of successful games that have “bad” code and that it doesn’t matter and people should just make games.
- Comment on 'I'm being paid to fix issues caused by AI' 2 months ago:
One of our coworkers keeps telling us to trust AI.
We’re like, we get to to generate some code but we always check it. The coworker was like, nah you should just trust it. We’re like, why? He said you should just train it until it gets to the state where you want.
We were like, we’re competent in our fields and we wouldn’t want to use anything in production that’s not checked by a human. Even if it wasn’t checked by a human we should have some checks for sure. Not sure why he’s so adamant about not checking anything.

- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 2 months ago:
I’m going back to Europe for a few months for a visit. I was looking at other VPNs and they were offering me cheap discounts but I’d have to sign up for 2 years or some shit. Mullvad was very straightforward in their pricing and I was able to generate the VPN config and I have it installed on my travel router really easily.

I think I understand your overall sentiment. Just wanna boot up games and not think about settings, compatibility, framerates and stuff. I know what you mean.

I used to drink ten to eleven cups of tea in the UK per day. I quit caffeine for a while because of the headaches. I somehow never put it together that this drug I keep putting into my system would affect my brain …

As an English “whose-a-ma-whats-it”, I feel like a lot of us don’t care much for the monarchy as well. I don’t speak for all obviously. Many of my friends need to keep up with Royal Family drama for some reason.
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 2 months ago:
I mean … you don’t have to tell me that my opinion isn’t popular, it’s demonstrable. My opinion is statistically insignificant.
There’s a plethora of other things I’d give up like have a slighter bigger phone or a worse camera or wireless charging… I’d also trade those for an SD card slot but no one agrees with me and it’s just something I need to live with.
