I like, but this is something parents should enforce, not the government.

Unfortunately it isn't what I wanted out of this game.

Loading screen to land on a planet, loading screen to leave my spaceship, no seamless entry into caves or buildings. Planets and space having boundaries. Can't use my spaceship to traverse.

Glad people enjoy it, but I was looking for something more akin to NMS or Star Citizen.

Mandarin and Cantonese are essentially two different languages that happen to share the same characters. Someone from Honduras would be able to understand 99.9% of what a Spaniard says. If you only speak Mandarin you wouldn't be able to understand Cantonese at all.

No way that game has enough content or is complex enough to justify 135GB. What it is is unoptimized crap. And since storage keeps getting cheaper studios have no incentive to fix it.

There's 1TB SATA SSDs for $35 at my local best buy.

It will not. You have to teach people what federation is while also having an enticing platform. I haven't seen anyone do that yet. Like Henry Ford said, the masses will just want a faster horse.

Let's pretend like the fediverse is a car. We're asking people who've never seen a car, and are used to horses, to select the parts and put it together with no manual. But, unless there's heavy provocation people will not switch from what they're familiar with.

This was the Reddit API changes for me and many on here. Yet due to Lemmy's adolescence at the time many didn't see a good enough platform to migrate to.

I consider myself quite literate with tech, but when I tried Mastodon years ago I couldn't even figure out how to sign up. They didn't explain what a server was, what federation is, or why I was unable to login after making an account. And they still do a terrible job at it. Your average person gets confused and gives up.

If I knew anything about development I'd throw together an app that'd walk you through the sign up process. It's such an easy thing to fix.

Is that really the best gameplay they could show? Not much happened. Visually it's extremely outdated.

As long as they're not trying to charge $60 it's fine I guess. Edit: So it's $39.99 ಠಿ⁠ヮ⁠ಠ I'll have to wait on reviews.

Let's not even talk about Visa and MasterCard. They could choose to end your business at any time.

If this ever happens to any car I buy, it'd be going right back to the dealer.

Also please consider using other instances for your account. Lemmy.world is struggling and the costs will keep rising for Ruud.

Every platform and app I've seen does a piss poor job of explaining what federation is and how to sign up. "Wtf is mastodon.social?, Why is this one in German?, Why can't I login after signing up?" New users just get confused and give up.

I couldn't imagine putting 8 years of effort into a game only for it to bomb. But a least they got their paychecks.

There is no Anonymous founder, it's a movement not an organization.

This happened in 2005 as well, except with 3 hurricanes; Francis, Ivan, and Jeanne. I doubt climate change has gotten better since then.

Yep I've already gotten a couple messages like this with an image of a random lady attached:

Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m a proud Polish girl from Toronto (29 y/o)

I’m currently taking the pre-health sciences program at George Brown College hoping to get into the medical field someday!

It sounds better at $30/min. Still stupid expensive, so it better deliver. As of now only tech enthusiasts are using it to say "haha look what I made".

But when these video generators are more fleshed out they'll be competing with stock videos, and likely are now. The value proposition is there if you're a company buying custom imagery from professionals. Exciting to see how this plays out.

I'll never pay $70 for a game. Still waiting on Dragons Dogma 2 to go on sale. Even if it's the same with inflation, why would I pay that for an unpolished product that still nickel and dimes me?

Reddit is entirely a "normie" platform now. 6 years ago I was actually made fun of for using it, but now even my grandparents talk about it.

I didn't suffer? I got my email in computer lab when I was a kid. I didn't have to choose the teacher showed us Gmail. You get an android you're prompted to create a Gmail. You get an iPhone you're prompted to create an iCloud.

For your second paragraph that was the entire point of my original comment.

Objectively it's not difficult in the same way starting a video game isn't difficult. However, just because some people can learn the controls quickly, doesn't mean everyone can. See: the video game journalist failing the Cuphead tutorial.
