I really like the switch. My only complaints are: I miss the 3DS like charm and customization.

I find it hurts to hold my switch in handheld for too long.

Otherwise, I think it’s a very neat machine

I’m in Canada and it’s not quite so dire. But I have noticed we are only getting like “main” titles in stores. If I go into a gamestop, their Xbox and play station sections are a quarter of what they were in 2008. The switch is in a much better state with a lot more physical copies (my guess is kids go into stores with their parents and ask for games, so it makes sense to have more physical copies).

I’m really torn because I like physical copies, but I’m also literally running out of living space. Additionally, so many games have patches with bug fixes on day 1. I’ve also been finding online has much steeper sales.

I kinda feel like the shift to online screws us all, though. Idk I’m just a giant ball of being conflicted about it lol

Dude, what a bummer. Like, I’m glad we have lemmy but there’s certain subs and such that reddit had that aren’t available here.

On one hand it has completely cured my reddit addiction, which is awesome. I’ve put a lot of time into more productive endeavors. But on the other hand, I do miss finding niche subs that had amazing communities.

Aaron Swartz wouldn’t have wanted this

The head of bungie spent a shit ton on classic cars, but they’re laying people off… I really want to see wtf happened to bungie internally. It went to shit the past decade.

I’m hit or miss when it comes to walking sim games but I really enjoyed firewatch

Thank you for breaking me out of the loop

They have secret police stations set up in many countries, where they will abduct people who are critical of the CCP. You’re absolutely right. Governments seem to be inadequate at preventing and stopping this.

I miss when bungie made halo. Bring back that bungie.

Right now, companies are chasing LLM’s and subscription services. I’m terrified of what’s going to come next, lol. At what point does late stage capitalism stop?

I think my favorite in the series is New Leaf so far. Granted, I didn’t play a ton of the GameCube version.

The only thing I wish new leaf did better was how you unlocked public works projects.

Additionally, villagers moving in and ruining your paths/designs was a pain. Otherwise, I thought the game was great. It could have used even more dialogue (which is crazy because it was already very long )

The games hit such a good mix of customizing, collecting, and discovery.

Ohhh dammit. Of course. Man that sucks. Thank you for clarifying!

I was hoping they would make gold cheaper because that’s really all that I need. But of course they tack on every other thing and then raise prices even more.

As a rental service game pass is great. But at regular price it is too much for me. I’m gona miss converting 3 years of gold to ultimate, though, lol. I’ll be going back to the cheapest tier when I run out.

They rose the price of the game?

This is so disappointing to hear. I wish disney would pay their workers properly. I remember really enjoying a trip to Disney when I was a kid and the park staff played a huge role in that.

Have you seen the prices lately? Not just for parks, but their hotels, cruises other revenue sources etc. Hollllly man. It’s insane. They are making absolute bank.

I would love to see an actual transparent breakdown of how they allocate their money. Their workers should be getting a lot more. If I ever get the chance to go back one day, I don’t know if I would be able to enjoy it nearly as much knowing that these staff members are literally giving their lives to the company just to make park guests days special.(actually idk if I would go back period. Even if I could afford to go, it just puts a shadow over the whole experience)

Idk the whole thing is just gross. Just pay them properly dammit.

I’ve been tasked with some notion testing and research this week. I tried asking chat gpt some simple questions, and it kept feeding me this exact scenario over and over. I guess notion doesn’t like any kind of recursion. Or at least not without extensions being added.

I thought the games fundamental gameplay wasn’t as fun as the first game. But the story was interesting

Yeah exactly this. Can’t speculate, impossible to tell really.

Haha, yeah. I have thought that every time you hear, “the motive is unclear.”.

I guess to be fair, he could have also just been crazy. Or something. But Occam’s Razor comes to mind.

I have not played it yet personally, but they have the turok trilogy bundle on the switch. I’ve heard those games are good. The serious Sam collection is also available and that’s a lot of fun

Thank you! I like it too haha. The battle network games are awesome
