Ooh, that’s a useful thing to know about! Thanks!

I felt like the modern sections were starting to fulfil what had been promised throughout the series. Then they just slam the door on that. Blech.

Also agreed on length. I’m not planning to play Valhalla because I don’t want a second job.

Rust still exists? My calendar must be wrong.

Much like the orange bell-end handling COVID - all they had to do was nothing and they couldn’t even do that.

You’re getting ragged on but I would very much prefer an approach with these things that used some sort of modular system.

I’m imagining the service would have the option for “address for communication bridge” and it’d pass messages to it using JSON or something. The communication bridge would then decide which medium that would go through (email, SMS, smoke signals, whatever the owner configures).

As far as the service is concerned messages come and go (or just go) and how that side of things works isn’t its problem. It’d also mean that one could configure fallback messaging mediums and use dummy ones for if one doesn’t want anything like that (much like the “emails print to the console” debug tool Django has).

I had a bash at Please Don’t Touch Anything before getting bored and playing a bit more Into the Breach.

I’m not sure what I’ll play next. Perhaps something rhythm game flavoured.

Sounds like another console generation I’m skipping in that case. The middle of its lifespan means it’s on the way to life support in the near future. Never really went anywhere, which is a bit of a shame.

I don’t know what’s worth tagging and what isn’t. I don’t know which tags are popular and so have followers vs. which ones aren’t.

The information exists but isn’t presented anywhere convenient.

If I have to do homework before posting a picture I’m massively more inclined not to bother, which isn’t particularly good for the Fediverse.

I would love something that could give me suggestions for relevant and popular hashtags for my content.

That barrel looks a bit too long for an M1919.

Climbing between the same three tree branches was not my idea of fun…

I played this one purely for Desmond’s story. I found everything about Connor’s story utterly tedious and the setting meant that the buildings were awful for traversal.

I’m confused as to how people with English as a second language even learn the word “costumer”. It’s reasonably obscure!

I’m reminded of Hans Blix in Team America.

Excellent. Sometimes I’d use the option for my work machine on a Friday only to find the fucking thing had rebooted instead.

Let’s see if it behaves when I do it in an hour or two.

To be fair, running half the planes would be great for the environment.

Unless it’s a referendum, apparently.

I’ll take them over the worse evil but that’s not a situation I’m happy with.

Fucking neoliberal arseholes.

A wasteland that one can throw a stone across doesn’t feel like much of a wasteland to me. I don’t want realism, just big enough that I can suspend my disbelief. I want to get immersed but a “town” with six people isn’t a godsdamned town.

My go-to “too big” is True Crime: Streets of LA. If memory serves it’s a decent chunk of LA at 1:1 scale.

It’s far too big and there’s not much to do. It doesn’t help that the game is dross.

I would argue that Fallout 3’s map is ridiculously tiny.
