Nah. It's a decent game.  If you're playing it for free then there's no reason not to.

Quote from: astro, post: 91808304, member: 3591
They're not talking about whether the game itself is decent, fhey're talking about all the bugs they encountered which is a very good reason for them not to.

Quote from: TitanicFall, post: 91808568, member: 32648
So? Not everyone’s going to have the same experience, and saying the game maybe isn’t worth your time even if it’s free because of some bugs is a bit extreme.

Quote from: astro, post: 91808973, member: 3591
Well, I agree wirh OP. It maybe isn't worth my time because of bugs, especially the one that messes up character progression.

Quote from: TitanicFall, post: 91809327, member: 32648
All valid criticisms, but it's not like these are unique issues to this game. Doesn't hurt for new players to give it a shot. Like would it be necessary for someone to say no one should play alot of the buggy Fallout and Elder Scrolls games?  If people are having a good time, they'll decide what their tolerance level is for bugs.

Quote from: astro, post: 91809423, member: 3591
People already know what their tolerance for bugs is, and it's perfectly okay to tell people to avoid a game if these kinds if bugs bother them.

Quote from: TitanicFall, post: 91809684, member: 32648
I'd say we're all more tolerant of issues for franchises we care about and less for those we don't.

Quote from: astro, post: 91809897, member: 3591
Sure? So if a person doesn't like the idea of this game /and/ has low tolerance tor bugs that's even less reasona to download such a large file size and spend their time on it.

Person who NG+‘d TRANSPHOBIC GAME Cyberpunk at launch is cautioning people against playing buggy games :dead

I think it's a little bullshit actually. Top Gun being militaristic is a discussion going back to the first movie. By all accounts it's pretty mild or expected but it's a sensible chuckle ERA is glossing over this or Cruise being possibly an horrible person in real life.
I'm sure Marvel fans can be defensive and insecure, however.

Box office measuring contest is dumb in general.
I like how ResetEra joined the Top Gun bandwagon and discarded Disney/Marvel like Woody when it crushed at the box office as opposed to supporting it because it is such a great movie. :money

This came up here recently. Mildly interesting look into how the rumors got started, propagated, and canonized.

https://selfstyledsiren.substack.com/p/john-wayne-and-the-six-security-men

Applies to many anecdotes people share unsourced. I’m for sure guilty of it. If it ever comes out that Willem Dafoe has an average size dick, I know I’ve misled far too many people.

Quote from: Messo
No wonder trans healthcare is generally awful when you have people like this as the medical professionals who have the power over trans individuals in whether they can access affirming care. Healthcare professionals get no training on transition care in medical school, but it's also their responsibility to seek out specialist training if they're unqualified to help.
Uh, aren't you technically a "healthcare professional"? You realize that doctors aren't all general practitioners right? He never said what this transphobic BITCH doctors area of practice is, why should she have to learn about "transition care" (aka cosmetic) necessarily? What if she's a heart surgeon? Or a OBGYN who specializes in pregnant patients?

If she's a heart surgeon and she isn't getting proper training on trans issues, then she's transplanting all the shitty hearts into the trans patients.  She needs a proper training course so she doesn't do that, damnit!  What don't you understand, shitlord?  We're tired of having to educate you.

Also notice the implication, that if you learn about "transition care" properly that you'll realize that it's not psuedoscience, contradictory and incoherent so will instantly come to believe all the most insane tenets of the cult ideology. So until you do, you aren't educated and are unqualified plus complicit in the genocide.

Maybe be clearer when you weep for consumers when what you actually mean is people who don’t stray beyond their loyalty to one and only one console maker. Because for consumers who don’t practice brand loyalty, this will result in incredible value on PC, Xbox, and streaming. And MS aren’t going to pull COD from PS.

Fuck David Zaslav, fuck John Malone, fuck Ezra Miller, fuck James Gunn for sticking around when these people are fucking creatives left and right, fuck Warner Bros. Discovery and fuck the whole lot of them.

Like James Gunn wouldn’t find work at Paramount, Universal, Sony, Netflix or literally any big film studio on Los Angeles, right? Job loss excuse doesn’t cut it here, chief. Yeah I’m side eyeing everyone that sticks around willingly with Warner Bros. Discovery for the time being. I understand those that don’t have James Gunn‘s type of clout sticking around, I even understand those attached to projects already in the works not named The Flash sticking around because there is absolutely nothing they can do, it’s not their fault. I will side eye creators I admire like James Gunn especially because I expected so much better than this from them.

I‘d rather not have something from James Gunn that I’m looking forward to than having him working with this new WBD‘s regime. I’d rather have him working with literally any other studio in town and it’s truly not like he doesn‘t have options for that.

Also, I find people bending backwards to say people are overreacting over Warner Bros. Discovery new leadership appalling. Of course that I care about The Last of Us, of course that I loved Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad and would be excited for them if the circumstances were different. But people downplaying what they are doing and claiming that me or the OP are reaching are either not following closely what WBD is doing both when it comes to their entertainment arm or their news arm or even worse, are okay with this shit as long as they get the shows and films they want.

I will watch an eventual Peacemaker second season. I will watch The Last of Us. But not without disgust that I would have to give WBD any money for that. I really wish that the leadership there went away, and people like James Gunn while clearly not having the same cloutas a Kevin Feige, could find work for him - and all his Peacemaker crew - anywhere in Hollywood. Sticking around and having a blind eye for what is going on there is truly not what I expect from James Gunn, and I really wish he would be more vocal about this. And there is still time for that.

The user you are replying to went from gloating and wishing for James Gunn to stop working on DC stuff because he is a good "fit" for Marvel to "fuck Gunn" in a couple of months.

I absolutely love The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker. I love both the film and the series. I want to see Gunn producing more films and series, and no, and I doubt I’ve ever said he was a better “fit” for Marvel. What I remember saying is that I would love to see more stuff from him at Marvel, but I was perfectly happy with him spearheading DC films as well.

GamePass is pretty big though, it's basically what iTunes and streaming was for music.
It has the potential to destroy Soyny's business model especially when they continue to sell remasters for $70.

Behind the scenes sony is doing a lot to block Xbox from gaining dominance such as demanding technical parity and blocking third party GamePass releases.
The situation is much like how Nintendo tried to keep the CD from overtaking cartridges, which worked for the SNES but not so much for the N64.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/how-long-after-the-astroid-did-dinosaurs-fully-die-out-a-climate-change-question.619707/

Quote from: T002 Tyrant
So I know some dinosaurs survived and evolved. However the asteroid didn't vaporise every living creature, it caused rapid climate change, but how rapid and how long did the survivors last? Obviously for many they managed to survive enough to evolve over millions of years.

However I want to know, does anyone know how rapid the climate change from the asteroid was on the rest of the planet, and how long does anyone think that the dinosaurs who didn't modify their bodies for flight survived until things were too inhospitable for them?

It may provide a key perhaps to how long this climate based extinction event is going to take?

Will ours be slower or more rapid than the dinosaurs? AND is there a chance that a select few tribes of human may eventually adapt to the harsh environment or adapt to get away from the inhospitable climate like dinosaurs did regarding bird evolution (or even artificially modify their bodies!).

Quote from: T002 Tyrant
I love the Epaulette Shark. It's a fish that is seemingly living proof of evolution in progress.

It lives in the water, but goes on land to breathe air and then flomps back into the water. Which means we can witness a sea animal which is partially through its progress from moving from the ocean, to land. Much like our ancestors hundreds of millions of years ago.

Quote from: Hilarious_Bearious
Evolution doesn't really have goals like "move onto land". There are fish able to spend time on land which have been that way for hundreds of millions of years. While they may appear to be transitional when viewed in retrospect, they are not all in some kind of race to go from ocean to land.

Well-done steak tastes the best, by far. People pretend to like undercooked steak to try and act like cool edgy grown-ups, but deep down, prefer well-done. These same people also pretend to like black coffee, pulpy orange juice, dark chocolate, alcohol, and HDR lighting.

lmao, this article literally says:

It might even sound like a supertaster has an advantage over 75% of humanity, tasting more, savoring more. And what about non-tasters … does that mean there are people who cannot taste anything?

Bartoshuk describes the difference in this way, "Supertasters live in a 'neon' taste world, while others live in a 'pastel' world."

These categories were assigned based on the reaction to PROP (6-n-propylthiouracil0), a compound that tastes intensely bitter to some people (supertasters) yet is tasteless to others (non-tasters).

Those who could taste varying degrees of the compound fell somewhere in the middle (medium tasters). This increased sensitivity to bitterness and texture shows up in strong opinions about certain foods.

Supertasters are less likely to enjoy leafy greens, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, dark chocolate, dark roast coffee, spicy peppers (capsaicin causes physical pain), creamy or especially sweet desserts.

Avoiding this list of flavors and textures doesn't sound so super when considering how limiting it can be.

or basically: "the term 'supertaster' doesn't actually mean 'superior taster,' it means more a more sensitive and limiting palate, and 'medium tasters' or 'non-tasters' aren't unable to taste."

so basically you have a baby mouth and found one random 1991 study and are misusing it to justify your argument that people who like black coffee and dark chocolate are either lying or can't taste shit even though the study says pretty much the opposite.

I don't know who Dan Arrows is, or his Three Arrows podcast, and Google isn't helping much.

What's the deal with this podcast and the host/producer?
Dan is a well-respected leftist historian and debunker of conspiracy theories.

oh thank god, finally a historian who doesn't get bogged down by "both sides" details and only documents the correct parts of history

Now I get why they bitch so much about stuff not being political enough:

At the end of Kiara's Rust stream, Kiara mentioned a conversation with her mother about the Game of Thrones spinoff where her mother mentioned it was gonna be some "woke shit" (meant in a negative sense, Kiara presumed). Kiara doesn't really understand what woke means but chat was all "based Mamatori" "stick it to the SJWs" and such. Seeing so many far right types crawl out of the woodwork was a little disgusting to see in chat tbh.

Quote from: Oreiller
The "no politics" policy agency vtubers have to follow means alt-right viewers don't get challenged on their shitty opinions, and the vtubers who are still "woke" despite all this often get harassed and slandered by the community (Finana had to offer a public apology after going after the transphobes in her chat, there are huge Google docs compiling every "misdeed" Nina said because she's a "SJW e-thot" and there are probably other exemples I have forgotten).

There is a huge portion of this community which is rotten to the core, it's frankly disgusting.

Is not about discussing politics and “have a conversation”, is about lepering the other side to not be in your fandom.

Quote
So I'm reading up about how in the USA, adults need to move out of their parents' house once they become 18. This thing I've known since it's everywhere in American media but In other cultures, such a pressure is not as strong in other cultures.

But then I'm finding out about how in the US, parents are charging rent for staying at their house. This is VERY unfathomable to me.

Is this true?

Feel bad for the devs. People have been hating this since it was first revealed and now these review scores will validate that hatred for a lot of assholes.

Hopefully it will be much better in 6 months with a few patches. I'm still interested down the line for a deep discount.

In this case by "historian" they mean "podcaster" as "historian" implies credentials and publishing. I'll also assume that "well-respected" means "people I like also like him" in this case.

Maybe his shit is great and you'll learn a lot, but that's not how this person tried to sell him is it?

I'm waiting for some proper reviews to come out from reviewers who aren't showing their ass on this and Forspoken by scoring it low just to please their alt-right fanbase. Once I see enough scores from reviewers brave enough to score the games properly then we'll be able to know what the actual consensus is on these games rather than a bunch of chuds just trying to fool everyone into believing a false racist narrative.
