That was fine when it costed significantly less than the other options, same principle that Little Caesars operates on

- Comment on We got more games and better games when there was less money being made in the industry. 1 week ago:
As a 2001 born, most of the ones that get brought up as good games, are. Really I think the NES is when console games got advanced enough to “age well.”

- Comment on Young gamers in Japan may not be forming the same attachment to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest because modern dev cycles are as long as their childhood, users theorize - AUTOMATON WEST 3 weeks ago:
I mean, being the cutting edge turn based JRPG that’s on par with the most impressive AAA titles if not an industry leader itself was historically Final Fantasy’s place in the market, in contrast to Dragon Quest’s traditionalism.
Hell, I believe Expedition 33 is popular because it more or less filled the spot that Final Fantasy forfeited when it went action.

I really do think Western media is more likely to hit you over the head with it’s message than Japanese media though.

Do local LLMs really consume much more than a task like, playing a video game?

- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 4 weeks ago:
I assumed “shoes off” meant “you take off your shoes before entering the house.” Never been required to do that but I’m usually expected to take them off soon after.

We’re less social, drinks in public spaces have gotten too expensive, weed

Xbox 360 is easier to emulate than OG Xbox or Sega Saturn last I checked.
- Comment on Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI splurge 1 month ago:
A lot of it isn’t an “insistence” per se as much as it’s company founders who did have some kind of connection with the product the company makes dying or retiring and getting replaced with people who don’t.
Ironically, the MBA was originally created as a way for people with degrees in more “boots on the ground” positions to learn about business so they could more easily move into management positions. What it’s morphed into is unfortunate.

The teachers union is most likely part of the opposition to the current regime, which hates both education and unions

They were there before all that, and network effect.
- Comment on Two former Polygon editors say they are launching Mothership, a new game publication, on January 26, to analyze games through the lens of gender and identity 1 month ago:
I really don’t think that the prude left is as un-prevalent as this comment wants to portray. They get what they want quite a bit in the UK and Australia (often by finding allies with the prude right tbf,) and even outside of that, they’re not particularly hard to find, and perception matters. And to someone with no strong political convictions, they could easily see a ton of leftists advocating censorship of some boobs in some game and take that at face value as “leftists are prudes.” I can’t even say it’s unjustified, Trump has tons of policies that I was told not to worry about because they were fringe. They’re more serious than boobs in video games, but the principle still applies.
And to be honest, I really do think a visible amount of people on the left really are uncomfortable with depictions of sexuality and even just romance appealing to straight men. It’s like, a sizeable amount of people on the left have this strong fear of anything giving men “unrealistic expectations.” And sometimes it’s not ecchi booby gags, sometimes it’s shit like “women having common interests with you,” as if not being heteropessimistic is now misogynistic.
- Comment on we need more users 1 month ago:
And you can say “block anything related to that,” but I don’t want to stop hearing about it entirely. Just not the only topics.
And even on the few active subs that aren’t Trump or Linux, there’s a lot of commenters that can’t shut up about Trump or Linux, particularly ones that think you’re a bad person if you ever stop talking about Trump.
- Comment on 'Backtracking Development Again Was Out of The Question' — Nintendo Says Metroid Prime 4's Open World Hub Was a Victim of The Game's Lengthy Development 2 months ago:
I feel like people’s perception of what “open world” means has drifted. I see people claim that GTA isn’t open world because it has linear progression. Like, they think BOTW defines what “open world” means.
Do you have a seamless, interconnected world that is the primary place the game takes place? Open world.
I would bluntly state that Metroidvanias are open world, and also aren’t the only open world games that have been around since the NES.

I will never get why, for so many, to be sexually attracted to a person or type of person is to want to subjugate them.
Is it just because I’m submissive?
- Comment on Dell and Lenovo may limit mid-range laptops to 8GB DDR5 RAM in response to rising memory prices 2 months ago:
I just did a new build with DDR4 because I was panicked about rising costs, and I don’t think the Ryzen 7 5800X counts as low end, or at least it didn’t when it was new. You’re probably right about it being old stock though, and none of this is relevant to laptops.

Just give me DDR4 then.
- Comment on Why do .ml users get a bad rep? 2 months ago:
You seem to think that having Trump on your side makes you pro America, but I strongly disagree.
In terms of population I don’t think having Trump on your side makes you pro America, but “adversary” is a geopolitical term.
On the stage of geopolitics, the current US government acts in favor of Russia.

Is Russia even a US adversary anymore?

They’re the ones that are pressed that a different sport is called football in two countries.

So we can’t have good social services like in Europe, but he adopts the kind of thing that makes Europeans fucking annoying to talk to.

- Comment on Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault? 3 months ago:
My personal answer is that people, particularly left-of-center folk from other Western countries, want us to feel like it’s our fault. The way they talk about us.
I don’t truly believe it, but that doesn’t mean I don’t internalize it. Maybe it’s an autism thing.
