I got Valheim and I'm loving it.
My friend and I have put in about 90 hours in the last month which is a lot for us considering we only play 2-3 days a week.
Thanks for the recommendation!
The same MFs on here that rush to tell someone that Linux is easy and intuitive are the same ones that can't keep a small talk conversation for more than 5 mins, a social activity that humans have been doing for thousands of years.
My words might be a little broad, harsh, and even hurtful, but just a reminder that not all of us are good at learning the same things.
We didn't all come out of the womb knowing how to socialize or use Linux, but if we look back far enough, we can all relate to the struggles it takes to learn something new, and how much it sucks when someone treats you like you're stupid just because things sometimes don't click
I'm thinking about getting the game with a friend during this sale. It looks great
Whenever I hear this quote I also think of the developers/publishers. They need to have a good reputation so people buy their games.
I think that's why EA, Blizzard, Ubisoft, Activision, etc sales have gone down. I will not say that gamers react fairly when it comes to unfinished game releases, but it takes one bad game to ruin a developer. Especially when you consider how small the margins are or if they are publicly traded. Even developers with good games have recently been going out of business because it's not sustainable.
I also think of their legacies. Especially in a post-steam world, a game with a good legacy will continue to sell for much longer. I don't think a game like Watch Dogs ever got rid of the stink surrounding it, even though it isn't a bad game to go back to nowadays.
I really respect mobile gaming. There are a lot of good and entertaining games.
They are really accessible to most of the population even in third world countries, and the communities are generally really nice. I've found them to be nicer than PC gaming communities at least.
It's really really incredible how good people can get at certain games and I like how a lot of their communities are run on mobile. A lot of the mobile gaming youtubers even edit their videos on mobile.
Games like COD Mobile and all of the SuperCell games are examples with great communities and games that don't have any ads. Sure they still be toxic, but it doesn't compare to communities like Overwatch.
There are also a lot of beautiful games out there. Mobile gaming is a now niche gaming space where the game has to actually be fun or else it won't grow all that much.
They can't just buy their way into being popular through the name of the IP or through beautiful graphics. The mentality of Art Style over Graphic Fidelity is still alive on mobile. Look at games like Monument Valley, Kensho, Pirate Outlaws, Rusty Lake, Pocket City, Mini Metro, etc. and you'll see what I mean.
It's also a great platform for indie games with low spec requirements.
I do the same thing with a space.
I have no idea why I do that and when I started
I went through a glasses addiction myself as well lol. I found an eye-care clinic where they would cut the lenses and have them ready within 3 hours.
I would go to garage sales, thrift stores, and swap meets to find glasses to put lenses on. They were like $60 for the lenses and I never spent more than $10 on frames.
I ended up with 3 seeing glasses and 4 sun glasses before I realized it was going to be unsustainable to get new lenses for my new prescription every year.
This happens in my family all the time.
I had a dream with my aunt. She was in an all white dress in a field waving goodbye at me and she was yelling stuff at me but I couldn't quite make it out. I was trying to get to her, but I couldn't get past a fence even though it was like 2 feet tall and I could easily jump over it. It felt like it was a goodbye. After a while I stopped trying to understand and get to her, and just waved goodbye, then the dream ended.
I woke up and wrote my dream down and went on with my day. It wasn't until later l found out she had passed away. I was like 10 and at that time and I was very scared, so I didn't tell my mom about my dream until years later. She told me that happens often in my family
I don't necessarily believe in the supernatural either, but some things I don't think can be explained. Like if it happens once I get it, but this has happened multiple times. I've seen my brother wake up from a dream and tell us about how he said goodbye to a family member only to right then and there find out they had passed away. I cannot explain it
This reminds me of an old friend I had at work.
She was in HR and looking to hire a new employee and she complained to me about how all the people applying weren't from the country and they weren't capable of doing the job because they didn't know how to behave...
At the end of her small rant I guess she realized I was one of those "outsiders" and then she said "oh but you're one of the good ones!"
I want one too but I'm scared I won't use it. I'm holding off until I meet someone with one and see it in person
I'm kinda the same way with American Truck Simulator. Its a great background game so I play it once every two weeks at least
Same haha. Btw I'm very anti billionaire in general and personally don't like Elon, but I was just saying what my girlfriend's dad told me
I know this thread is already a little old, but here is the list of my favorite apps from F-Droid/Izzy. I use a lot of these almost daily and just thought I would share these in case someone might find a new app they find useful
What wrong with his fans? I love a lot of his music, but I can't say that I've ever read comments on a video of his or follow him on any sort of social media
Same. My girlfriend's dad worked for him and he says that Elon is a great guy and would treat him really well
Do you recommend Astroneer as a multiplayer game? I've been wanting to play it with a friend
My supervisor uses ChatGPT to write emails to higher ups and it's kinda embarrassing lol. One email he's not even capitalizing or spell checking, and the next he has these emails are are over explaining simple things and are half irrelevant.
I've used it a couple times when I can't fully put into words that I'm trying to say, but I use it more for inspiration than anything. I've also used it once or twice in my personal life for translating.
How has this been received?
I imagine that pretty soon using ChatGPT is going to be looked down upon like using Wikipedia as a source
Haha yeah ik sorry
You must not be outside then
In the communities where this music is popular, there are definitely a lot of classic songs coming out that aren't just background noise, and they actually turn up the clubs.
To people outside of these communities it might seem like they only survive 5 years, but if you're inside you'll recognize patterns in songs that keep coming up and that people listen to the most. That's what really makes them classics, not just random people on Lemmy deeming them as such.
Bad bunny, El Alfa, Tokischa, Chucky73, RaiwAlejandro, and Daddy Yankee have all been relasing songs that the community will remember for a long time and deem classics. Reggaeton is going through a second, smaller, golden age and it will be remembered.
Your comment sounds a bit racist ngl
