Dunno why people down voted you for asking, but personally while I love some of their games and the creative direction they take their consoles - they just have way too many anti-consumer practices.

From recent memory, they’ve DMCA takedowned YouTube videos of people playing modded versions of Breath of the Wild before Tears of the Kingdom released. This isn’t the firs time they’ve DMCA takedowned videos they didn’t like, including videos showing emulation in the past. Their online service, despite costing money to play games online, primarily relies on peer to peer networking when their console has a very weak networking chip, meaning most online games have to account for very poor connections. They have been very aggressive in shutting down websites distributing Roms for games that no longer have a way to be accessed or played. It stinks that you have to pay for their online service if you want any form of save data backups, and even those are iffy because they really don’t want you putting it on more than one console. Their handling of joyconn drift has left a lot to be desired. They replaced them… Sometimes… And when they did you had to wait a while and usually the replacement would develop it, too.

For the record, they still claim that they do not sell user information nor data.

It seems like a great game for those with the time and dedication to learn it.

I’m not one of those people. This game takes a lot from DOTA and will demand an extensive knowledge of the map, characters, builds, and items to start to get good at it, and I just don’t care to spend the time to learn it all.

I know nobody asked, but I really wish more MOBAs like HOTS did well. I love HOTS for how approachable it was in comparison to the others. I’m at the point where if I play a moba and there’s an item shop: I’m out. In every case I’ve seen an item shop the optimal usage of it is to build your characters stats to counter your expected build of the other team’s build - and that is a LOT of added complexity I just don’t want to deal with, especially because it requires so much knowledge and people with more time than you will flame you if you don’t know it.

I’ve already seen hivemind votes on some Lemmy comment threads. It’s just inevitable. Hopefully most Lemmy communities can be better about the banning thing though.

Yeah, I’ve been following OP closely for a while - their posts always make my day better, I couldn’t do without them. I only wish I knew more.

A lot of people struggle to understand that a lot of the fun of warframe is in the progression. There really isn’t a lot to do that’s interesting when you get into the endgame, so paying to progress faster ultimately takes away some of that fun.

Now, there is plenty of fun to be had building and trying out new weapons, but that does get old without a goal to reach for while using them.

Also, very few people actually play the PVP mode. I’ve never touched it myself and I’m in the endgame.

So from an outsider who doesn’t understand this, they see that players can pay to progress faster and think it’s pay to win - because in most games it is.

I came back to the game half a year ago and I’ve been enjoying every update since. Seems like you enjoyed the game before, so I’d say it’s definitely worth a try.

We have some really cool stuff coming up this year, too.

That’s not what that implies. I’ve seen that argument from religious people describing how atheists must be unruly because they have no incentive to meet a good afterlife.

I can still be clean, look how I want, and be nice to others just because I want to and I like it when others do the same.

This post is a good mildly infuriating post. The pizza does cost too much.

However, it also seems like the poster wasn’t ready for discussion when posting to a discussion board.

Unironically, that could save lives

Nah it still runs really poorly. Shame too, otherwise it’s my favorite mainline game.

Nah you had it right. They mixed up left and right.

Nah it’s just a hook, go for it champ

I was being genuine since the comment read to me like it could have had some tongue in cheek, didn’t mean to cause any harm and did not mean to have these kinds of votes attached, sorry.

Are you the author?

Knowing that LLMs are just “parroting” is one of the first steps to implementing them in safe, effective ways where they can actually provide value.

Oh hey it’s that redpill content they were warning me about!

It’s more obvious when it’s someone with emoji as their name (you know who you are :p )

I don’t play COD all that much, but I was one of the crowd who made my purchase of MWII in part because it was supposedly going to stick around for 2 years. I feel slighted that they had nearly complete versions of nostalgic maps in Warzone only to never release them in regular multiplayer and instead hold them for MWIII. I refuse to support this bait by spending on COD any further.

Shin Megami Tensei and Dragon Quest Monsters come to mind. Both have some edgy designs. Yes, Digimon has some as well.

Not that I even should have spent the time typing this, you’re just being rude so it’s hard to tell if you’re even making a good faith argument. What do you even mean by “Pokemon but with constant crying”?
