It was never about fun. It’s about experiencing the game.

When I read a book, the goal is to have whatever experience the book is going to give me, and leave my own life behind for a while.

Getting lost in a AAA fantasy world with super-high-fidelity graphics is an amazing experience.

Chicken sashimi is a thing in Japan. It’s slightly cooked on the outside.

Yet I played it so much I can hear it in my head right now.

In today’s dollars, my local video game store in 1991 was selling Wizardry for the NES for $141.

Fuck, the average AAA Atari 2600 game was $99 in today’s dollars. Games like Pitfall and Pac-Man.

Just some perspective. I’m going to go yell at a cloud or something, now.

There’s literally no difference. Each Discord server is like a tiny chunk of Reddit. If anyone expected any privacy on these servers, they’re nuts.

That’s why I only post questions for bleeding-edge languages and code libraries. I have to answer them myself.

lemmy is just gobbling it up every day. It’s so tiring.

Are you fucking serious? All I ever see on Lemmy is prople saying “AI slop” over and over and over and over again… in like every comment section of every post. It could be a picture that was actually hand-drawn, or a photograph that was definitely not AI, or articles written by someone “sounding like AI”. The AI hate on Lemmy is WAY overpowering any support.

1/3 equals 1/4 because in both cases you have 1.

MK with its new open world

Now I want open world Mortal Kombat.

Just get a proper emulation handheld. It won’t have Joycon’s that will drift in 12 months. The Switch doesn’t do anything special versus an emulation handheld. There are a million to choose from at every price point.
