196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•I don't get the outrage, this is how consent works to the right wing
12·2 年前If it’s fake, then that still matches how consent works to people like Doe 174
Maybe it was a convoluted way of breaking the news that Neil Gaiman is a sex pervert

Gaming@beehaw.org•Long Dark dev criticises Manor Lords for lack of updates, Hooded Horse CEO replies that not every game needs to be "some live-service boom or bust"
7·2 年前I agree completely, no normal person wants that.

IGN and its consequences have been a disaster for video game journalism.
“This game barely works. I had multiple game-breaking bugs during the tutorial. The art style is ugly, the music is annoying, the gameplay is generic and not fun at all, the graphics stutter constantly, and it tried to make me drink a can of mountain dew on camera to verify my purchase. We give it a 7… point 1.”
If your name was your mother’s maiden name followed by your bank password, what would your new name be?
Hopefully Tubular updates soon too

World News@beehaw.org•China ‘world’s biggest debt collector’ as poorer nations struggle with its loans
6·2 年前This was the entire point. If you loan out money that immediately gets paid to construction firms you own, you’re effectively just charging people (with interest) to be neocolonialized.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Starfield's planets aren't all interesting, but they're not all "supposed to be Disney World"
15·2 年前The best part is, they already made a game with a gigantic world full of procedurally-generated content: Daggerfall, which is remembered fondly for a reason.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Starfield review controversy traces game journalism's orbital decay
58·2 年前“Decay”
What’s left to decay? It’s dust now. Remember when Eidos used a PR firm to strongarm websites into not publishing reviews of Tomb Raider: Underworld if they were less than an 8/10 till after launch?
“That’s right. We’re trying to manage the review scores at the request of Eidos.” When asked why, the spokesperson said: “Just that we’re trying to get the Metacritic rating to be high, and the brand manager in the US that’s handling all of Tomb Raider has asked that we just manage the scores before the game is out, really, just to ensure that we don’t put people off buying the game, basically.”
That was 15 years ago, and despite the fact that Barrington Harvey went on to lie and pretend they never said that, everybody knew that kind of thing was old hat back then too. Mainstream gaming journalism is a captured industry.
I’m not a console owner, are PlayStation owners really giving Sony $60 a year to play online multiplayer? It shouldn’t cost anything in the first place. If Valve or GoG or anyone else started trying to tell me I had to pay them extra to send certain packets through my router, I’d have a good laugh.

Oh yeah you’re right we should just not even bother voting and let the right wing win.
