Yeah I am hoping they overhaul or embrace a new engine because that is what apparently killed mutliplayer for Cyberpunk. I dream of playing as trauma team and extracting patients.

I mean it wasn’t a meme. Bethesda games are buggy on release. The PS3 edition of Skyrim was notoriously not fit for release, I honestly do not think that level of bugs would ever have been tolerated nowawdays. It’s also something that Microsoft’s QA team really ought to be credited for because it seems they are the reason this game stands out amongst Bethesda releases in recent years.
That said imma wait till a few days afterwards just in case. And the story getting bad reviews is not unsurprising as Bethesda has not really had a good one since Morrowind, or maybe Point Lookout in F3.
If they’ve managed to make a decent live action adaptation of any Japanese media I’m impressed for them. Cowboy Bebop, the Resident Evil tv series come to mind as their mos trecent failings. I think One Pieces kind of cartooniness is something that can be adapted in live action so its good to see them actually do it.
He’s talking about Lemmy of Motorhead who is one of the reasons Lemmy is called Lemmy.
Honestly from the memorabilia I just think that was Lemmy’s passion, I was never a big motorhead fan but I’ve seen more than enough instances of his political thoughts to not really look down on him for his collection. He was a dude really passionate about that part of history and loved collecting stuff from it because he thought that the Nazis “looked mean”. By that he meant cool. He got rich and instantly started trying to pick stuff up.
I suppose you could say his collection and widespread appreciation for the aesthetic was a bit tone-deaf and strange but I never thought you could look at his work and his life and call him a Nazi. He clearly wasn’t racist giving his romantic history and had a few interviews where he talked about his disdain for racism.
Fun fact Lemmy actually owned a german tank destroyer called the Hetzer, or the Jagdpanzer 38. His collection was extreme to be honest. He had artifacts from all the axis countries in Europe iirc. I often, when I was younger, wished I was so rich I could collection historical artifacts from ww2 like that. I was wanted a King Tiger, a Pershing and an IS-3, never actually saw service in WW2 in combat but was in the Soviet victory parade. I liked big tanks. Sadly I don’t think I’ll ever get any of those.
I use Kbin over Lemmy for the record.
I totally forgot that I got the Spoilers phasmid myself on my first run, that was another stand out to me. It’s such a beautiful and strange moment, in any other game it would feel out of place but for me the phasmid is arguably the greatest part of the game for me. I felt like hope and a miracle that something like that could exist in the crapsack world of Elysium and Revachol. With the fear of the Pale overwhelming everything and a constant state of drudgery and decline of a failed revolution it was nice to see that there are still things worth finding in the world. Harry speaking with it is a great thing as it lets him understand and overcome his self-hatred and shame.
Loved having Kim there.
“I see it, too”
I actually have played Disco Elysium and agree that it’s writing is consistently higher than Cyberpunk’s but I remember doing the devil ending in Cyberpunk and hearing male V express his fear of death, and the desperation to escape it at all costs felt so real to me in a way I’ve never seen. I’ve dealt with terminally ill patients and idk I’ve never seen someone capture the denial and bargaining as well as I felt it myself playing the character.
My favourite moment of writing in Disco Elysium was probably speaking to the boat lady who spits out some very harsh truths and for sure represents best the idea of “absords all critiques into itself” idea.
I must play Planetscape Torment because it’s the other big rpg that I’ve heard lots tell me is the pinnacle of writing in the genre.
Yeah the writing in Cyberpunk 2077 is honestly phenomenal, and the setting is really good. I was honestly shocked by how good the writing and VA in this game actually are. Maybe it’s because it’s more relevant to me, but it’s the first time since FNV I really felt the writing in a game was gripping and interesting to me on a serious level.
It’s gameplay is honestly decent enough as well. Gunplay isn’t bad, and with the large amount of mobility makes the gunplay even more fun. Hacking and stealth are a bit op but fun, my biggest problem is the melee combat feels a bit weightless.
I am for sure looking forward to Phantom Liberty and the perk rework. Maybe my view of cyberpunk is tailored by the fact I never bought into the hype so I was never let down by it. I just watched Edgerunners, loved it. Played the game and was further impressed.
Kbin already is, it was very much a side project by Ernest that was no where near as mature as Lemmy. As it stands it is growing extremely fast, proportionally it is way more active and grows faster than Lemmy itself. Kbin.social iirc is neck and neck with Lemmy World.
Agreed totally out of left field imo. I have to watch it though because of that. It’s so novel.
Maybe, I honestly love going to the movies but it seems the age of the generic blockbuster is done really. It’s nearly all sequels or franchises. I want to wathc something not particulary groundbreaking but still interesting and not need to watch it’s five previous movies.
The last movie I felt scratched that itch for me was the DnD movie which was relatively detached. I like movies like that and I wish there were more. Don’t get me wrong I like a good franchise but when everything is a franchise it’s maddening.
You’re being downvoted because people don’t understand you’re not talking about “far left” like some Trumper. You mean literal tankies, which absolutely yes some of the Lemmy Devs are as well as Lemmy.ml. It’s also a reason I selected Kbin.
Es ist gut für mich. Ich muss mein deutsch auffrischen. Es ist ein problem fur anderen leute, weil Kbin kein spracheinstellung hat. Aber Sie können wählen nur deine “Magazines” sehen möchten.
It was at least better when you could see upvotes and downvotes instead of just a universal score. It let you know whether or not something was actualyl somewhat agreed with even if the majority didn’t like it.
There can only be benefits to wider Linux acceptance in gaming, as it stands it’s shocking that it isn’t already there. Linux imo will never be window’s equal in distribution, too many people use windows compared to the various distros. But more people seem to use Linux now than before so there’s an untapped market here.
Prigozhin is probably upset about the war in Ukraine because it isn’t in their interests. They are PMCs, mercenaries. They have no interest in fighing a long protracted war and suffering large-scaled casualties for little gain either politically or monetarily. He also likely smells blood in the water, Putin is in the weakest position he has ever been in as we talk abou tthis even.
Wagner in contrast whilst suffering is in ascendancy. They are the strongest and largest they’ve ever been and seem to be doing a lot of heavy lifting in Ukraine for the Russians. So they’re disastisfied but also seem to have the means to do something about it.
They’d much rather be deployed to fight the more conventional wars that Mercenaries fight these days in the global south. And as long as Putin is in charge there is a good chance Wagner isn’t going to get back to fighting those wars. So it would make sense that they mutiny.
Are there any search plugins in particular or is it just grab first one you see?
I am fully willing to admit half the reason it’s so popular on the news is the novelty of it. A submarine goes missing, possibly sunk, near the Titanic? The truth is the accidents iwth immigrants and migrants happen so often that most of the media doesn’t really care about it so much any more. But it used to, I remember seeing stuff about bodies washing up on the shores of Italy. When it was novel is was more popular and ‘sold’ well so it was reported on. i guarantee you if subs went missing anywhere near as often in the future you would not see as much about it. That’s just how the media works these days, it’s unfortunate.
Billionaires or not I don’t envy them and if they can be saved I hope they will be. Especially the young guy there with his father.
Yeah the original dub of Yakuza 1 is very clearly trying to make it more “american” for the audience and it suffers for it. It’s also funny because Mark Hamill voices Majima, and he admits that he does not remember doing that at all.
Yes. This movie drives me up the wall because there is so much to like about it, but the eway it ends is not good. When watching it at the theatre as it was getting close to the end, I was wondering how they were going to wrap up so much stuff soon or was the movie longer than I thought. When that to be continue stuff happened I was disappointed and a bunch of people in the theatre either groaned or actually audibly complained. I remember some kid shouting “WHAT!” at the top of his voice.
It also imo heavily ruins the film as it stands because it makes the entire film feel like a movie cut in half so I cannot enjoy it over the original Spider-Verse. Maybe part 2 will be great, but imo these two films are always going to be stained somewhat by the fact that they do not open and close well. There’s been films that hint at follow ups that ended way more satisfying that this. Empire Strikes back, Dune, and Fellowship of the Ring come to the mind. Across the Spider-Verse doesn’t have that clear closing but still hint for more that those movies did.
I’m not big on the homogenising into unreal 5 but if it works well for them I’m all for it.
