  Which is what always seems to happen (The cheaters). That or a shitty matchmaking system that throws you against people who practically live in the game. I’m just not about to try to compete against people like that. I have a life. I don’t mind pvp games. But it’s not going to be something where I actually lose progress when I get fucked by some 12 year old.

  I’ve gotten a lot of hours of entertainment from that aswell. We need more devs like these.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Embark would like you all to play nice in Arc Raider's temporary PvE event Shared Watch, which starts today⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll play when there’s a non-temporary pve mode. I have no interest in the pvp aspect.

  I think I bought Terraria about 14 or 15 years ago, and it’s still getting content updates.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"We can't just continue making the map bigger and bigger": Why Bethesda want to expand Fallout 76 inwards, not just outwards⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s a tough balance. If I want to be immersed, there needs to be places where there’s nothing. The world is full of places with nothing going on, and games should be allowed to reflect this. A game that is filled to the brim is stressful. My best example of this is Old School Runescape vs Runescape 3. Old School has plenty of places without anything actually useful, and it makes the places with something meaningful even more so. Runescape 3 is filled to the brim with all kinds of bullshit. It’s literally impossible to walk for 30 seconds, without having something light up like a giant neon sign with the writing “PAY ATTENTION TO ME, LOOK HOW MUCH CONTENT THERE IS”. It feels incredibly claustrophibic and like the game is doing everything it can to make you do anything but what you set out to do.

  Of course, as mentioned at first, there needs to be balance, and a lot of open world games have had a very hard time finding this balance, but I really like those places where it’s just a field with nothing particularly going on. It can serve as great world building to show that sometimes, a place is just a place, and doesn’t have to be anything but a place.

  I’d absolutely love an actual keyboard for my phone. I don’t need all that much screnspace anyway, all I do is text friends, take calls once in a full moon, and write comments on Lemmy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After EA's buyout and creator exodus, The Sims team wants you to know their "values and commitment remain the same"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also their commitment to release so many DLCs that the game stops working properly because of too much spaghetti in the code.

  Is gonna break all the records… In ass sucking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ISP tricked customers about fiber optics being used in their internet service, German court rules — 'full fiber' customers found to have 'last mile' copper connections⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t matter. The ISP lied to their customer. If there’s no difference they’re free to advertise it as a better way, but lying is fucking scummy, and it’s all about saving money for them. They don’t give a shit about the wasted materials.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dune: Awakening gets a free weekend for September 11, a first ever discount and early DLC release⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Early DLC” after 3 months is just main game content they didn’t put in, because they figured they could use it to squeeze you for every last cent they can.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bunnyhop elsewhere, streamers: EA are making Battlefield 6 more strategic, less run-and-gun following the beta⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Those changes sound absolutely awesome. I’m really quiye optimistic that the devs have finally figured out what we need.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We solved the Smartphone Keyboard problem back in 2013… It’s time to bring this concept back⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t like the lack of apps back then, but now my used apps are very limited anyway, so I probably wouldn’t really mind. Everything else about it was decently good.

  Luckily for the europeans, those agreements are unenforcable.
