hey its me the guy you predicted would tell you the thing you said i would tell you

the reason people say neofetch is useless is because the information it gives you is not very detailed when compared to something like inxi for example

i really like how this is just about the games. no corporations, no awkward presenters on a stage, just a bunch of cool games i would not have known about otherwise.

thanks for posting this - got a few new games on my wishlist :)

yeah if i was preparing to take billy mitchell to court thats all i would talk about or make videos about lol

plus it seems like a lot of his time and energy is going into that and the topic is similar enough to his other videos that he might as well document it.

trans command?? dos is secretly based???

but this is a game that basically lives and dies by its mods, and this is an update that (arguably) changed nothing anyone who is still playing the game cares about after years of stability. why fix what isn’t broken?

fun is an overstatement but it can be enjoyable with a friend. definitely not as bad as some people make it out to be though

although you’re right, i’m not sure this battle is worth fighting anymore tbh. i used to care about which word to use, but it kinda seems like splitting hairs now.

i don’t think the distinction between the two matters to most people anymore, especially since most modern titles fall into the -lite category rather than -like.

just beat a difficult game about climbing and i loved it! it’s the only other game in the genre that has risen to the heights of getting over it in terms of gameplay mechanics and level design.

if anyone reading this knows about a community for these types of games (foddian? getting over it-likes?), please send it my way. i love these games to bits and have so much to say about them but to my knowledge basically no one cares about these games outside of watching people on twitch get angry at them.

looking forward to playing return of the obra dinn, then i’ll probably start speedrunning the climbing game until baby steps releases lol

i agree with op’s take but only in the sense that games made with the intent to be esports end up being antithetical to what makes games enjoyable, at least for me. it kinda feels new pvp games are exclusively targeting competitive gamers and the casual online pvp space is shrinking or being driven to older games.

but that might just be my own aversion to being told to take my own life by an angry teenager when I make a mistake while playing with a digital toy to enjoy my time off work.

while funny, the accolades you listed aren’t enough for billy to be elected - clearly he isn’t that great a conman!

i think the problem a lot of people (myself included) have specifically with nudity on twitch is with the streamers whose streams are basically just porn. now there’s nothing inherently wrong with porn, nudity, or sex work on the internet or in real life, but the issue comes in when you put people who are essentially sex workers on the same video game streaming site many young people visit for non-sexual content. now porn is available and popular on their favorite game streaming site, and it is being forcibly recommended to users who have never browsed that category of content on twitch before.

pretty much all i watch on twitch is super mario 64 speedruns, but 9/10 times when i log in my first recommended channel is a streamer with their tits out doing jumping jacks in a hot tub or something. i can only imagine this is happening to a large percentage of other users as well, including younger users who could be easily manipulated by an attractive and interactive woman online heavily incentivizing them to donate money.

it basically boils down to: i don’t care that porn is on the site, but it should not be recommended to people who are not already browsing that content as that is not what i’m there to see.

edit - re-reading the changes, i’m hoping that the stream visibility and content label changes would fix this issue.

peak reading comprehension

you can actually still find like 4-5 people playing sauer at most times lol, but its only insta ctf. still a great time to load into every now and then if there are enough people on of course

its different from the other ones, mostly in terms of ui and game feel, but it plays the most like 3. the caves are great so far (if a little short, but there is still plenty more for me to do), overall its just been lots of fun but i do wish it was a little harder. The big areas are super cool, and the design improvements allow you to just go diving into any caves or dandori battles you find in your travels without having to worry about where are my pikmin, do i have everyone, do i have the right types, etc.

would definitely recommend it to any pikmin fans

pikmin 4! so excited to finally have my hands on a new pikmin game. the game is very streamlined and a lot of the minor annoyances of the older games have been eliminated by one design choice or another, and it is just really easy to sit down and play.

would recommend for new players and fans of the series.

so far i’ve tried:

• wizard with a gun: didn’t love it, felt a little too slow and repetitive for me. gonna have to wait and see what the full game looks like.
• fortune’s run: this game goes so hard, can’t wait for it to release. if you like imm sims check this out. this is one of those games that isn’t lying about the difficulty - even medium is pretty challenging. also the music is good enough to make me wish they released soundtracks for demos

excited to try valley peaks, viewfinder, and hammerwatch 2 whenever i get a chance

i think it looks pretty good, but there are some things in the trailer that i’m not sure about.

• they showed a lot of pikmin types, i think all of them from every game plus the new ones? this is a worry of mine unless they made enough different areas to make you feel like you don’t need every type on every expedition.
• still not sure how to feel about the dog
• really glad they’re bringing back caves, but the pikmin 2 versus mode-esque battles seem weird
• the night expeditions seem sort of interesting, curious about what purpose they serve
• not sure how to feel about the upgrade shops and currency, hope they do it well

overall, theres a lot of new stuff and returning features that were missing in pikmin 3 for us to be excited about. seems like they want to go more of an open world, choose your own adventure style of progression in favor of how in previous games you had to defeat x boss or get y treasure to unlock a new area.

i just hope its longer than pikmin 3 mostly

keep em comin dilla
