Could nurse practitioners fill the primary care gap? (www.theglobeandmail.com)

Nurse practitioners could help fill the void, advocates for the profession say, if more provinces would adopt policies to integrate them into primary care and pay them fairly for their work. Some physicians’ organizations have pushed back against that approach, arguing that NPs don’t have as much training or education as...

Cant forget America luring them away with higher wages

9 years later, I finally played fallout 4

Having dropped New Vegas in the past due to lost interest, I decided to try this game out finally since a friend of mine was having a fallout 3 playthrough himself. It was it 8 bucks, so I figured why not. I have to say, I put way more hours into this game than both other Bethesda games I’ve played through (Skyrim and...

Blamemeta,

Vegas, easily.

Blamemeta,

Have you played the games?

Blamemeta,

Its just some extra buildings for outposts, which I guess is the size of Wasteland Workshop, so technically true.

Blamemeta,

Hell yeah, actual endings are sorely missed. I kinda wished I owned a PS5 now.

60 Percent Of Playtime In 2023 Went To 6-Year-Old Or Older Games, New Data Shows (kotaku.com)

A newly released game industry report by market researcher Newzoo shows that while the PC and console market grew 2.6 percent in 2023, overall playtime decreased as gamers spent more and more time in a smaller list of old games like https://kotaku.com/fornite-og-map-season-chapter-4-update-1850990645* *and League of Legends.

Blamemeta,

Games that are just MVPs with a massive, fully featured microtransaction store, often featuring a story by committee, visuals that arent any better than five years ago, shitty ai, filled to the brim with bugs, and all running at less than 60 fps on good hardware.

Fuck new big games.

Blamemeta,

God damn it, fucking sony

Blamemeta,

Its a full price game, it shouldnt have microtransactions

Blamemeta,

.bsp support? Hell yeah!

Blamemeta,

Anthem? Immortals of Avuem? Starfield? Forspoken? Pretty much every bad game discounts early, because word of mouth spreads, independent reviewers review, amd sales plummet. Even Starfield had a 25% discount about a month after release once people realized the magic was missing.

Blamemeta,

Ah shit, youre right. Must of misread it.

Then Just Starfield I think.

Blamemeta,

They literally threaten and extort companies into paying them. That’s just from their own employees tweets.

I’m honestly surprised that the government hasn’t noticed their extortion racket.

Blamemeta,

, if your product doesn’t check the diversity and inclusion boxes it will be criticized, “hire us to help”.

That’s textbook extortion. “Nice product you got there, be a shame if twitter didn’t like it. Maybe pay us some money, make sure nothing untoward happens to your product”

I mean, how is it not.

Blamemeta,

Easier to just link you to a youtube video that does that for me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1G-BDswd6M

Blamemeta,

More like it’s not worth tracking down the archives for deleted tweets.

Blamemeta,

Whens the last time you saw anyone actually read a provided source?

Blamemeta,

I kinda feel sorry for what they couldve been

Blamemeta,

I think that boycott did the opposite of what it was supposed to

Blamemeta,

Enderal is fairly good.

Blamemeta,

Bullet hell maybe?

Federation is broken, so my hot take is Duke Nukem Forever is better than Starfield.

DNF sucks ass, dont get me wrong. The pacing and some sections are horrible. But it oozes passion. Hell, even some of the gun play is better than SF. The characters in DNF actually feel like characters, stereotypes to be sure, but like actual characters. From the stern general, to the terrified and grateful civilians, it feels...

Blamemeta,

Creation Engine is a great engine for Bethesda style games, no doubt about that. But it is not a particularly innovative engine. The main innovation was just how moddable it was. It’s basically a pretty SQL database, with the formids being primary keys. (Have you ever screwed with xEdit? It’s so easy to mod!)

BUT that being said, widespread use of procgen was in Dagger Fall. Aside from a few key dungeons, everything was procedurally generated, and that was in 1996. Hell, I’d venture that it had better procgen, because they had roads. And before that, Rogue was procedurally generated. Procgen just isn’t an innovation.

Blamemeta,

Fucking paid mods. Was this confirmed earlier? We knew it was coming, but its another to have it actually confirmed.

I’m not even mad, just apathetic. I just dont care anymore. I want to be angry, feel some sort of emotion towards SF and Bethesda, but I don’t.

I guess I’ll go back to other games.

Blamemeta,

Next, official mod support will be coming to Starfield with the launch of Creations.

Creations is what they call their latest iteration of paid mods in Skyrim.

Blamemeta,

No. Maybe it never will. I would wait for a sale if you really want it, it already went 30% off at one point, and the Steam Winter Sale starts tomorrow.

Blamemeta,

Nah, they are. Problem is banks. Bunch of weird prudes, and they effectively run the world.

Blamemeta,

Thats been in creation since morrowind, its only an issue due to all the clutter

Blamemeta,

Well maybe? Theres a lot of games with tiny mod scenes, but Bethesda was probably hoping for more than what Monster Hunter World got.

Blamemeta,

At least you could blow up megaton. Couldnt have you killing named npcs in starfield, you might miss out on shitty content!

Blamemeta,

Wall running

Blamemeta,

This is the update that finally got me to change my review from positive to negative.

Blamemeta,

Well fuck this, broke my modlist again. I give up. I’m not buying Tes6, theyve burnt the goodwill with me.

Blamemeta,

Ah godammit, my mod list is broke again. I give up.

Blamemeta,

Its a bad game, not because of what it is now, but because it helped popularize a “release broken, fix later” attitude.

Blamemeta,

Problem is that theyre not empty. Every single one has colonized by identical groups

Blamemeta,

Its a game that tries to get you to pay more after you already bought it. Widely considered to be a mark of a bad game.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Games_as_a_service

Blamemeta,

Oof. Another Fo4 style diaster. At least it won’t hurt modding the same way, but its still a lot of voice acting for little benefit.

Blamemeta,

16 times the niche restraints

16 times the preggo mods (Why are there so many? How many do you need?)

16 times the sex animations (FNIS says theres a few thousand animations for the lewd mods alone)

16 times the weird masochistic mods

16 times the really creative unironically good mods

16 times the non-adult mods (why would you upload normal mods to LL? I don’t get it.)

Blamemeta,

The first game since l4d2 to get hordes right. Damn good game, and good story to boot.

Blamemeta,

We get taught it in the US, but its usually in the vein of company towns and pinkertons, not the modern mundane stuff.

Blamemeta,

Yeah. What we need is more locations in the same worldspace.

That qualifier is important.

Blamemeta,

Well thats a new one

Blamemeta,

So can anyone spoil it for me? Can V survive?

    Blamemeta,

    Dima’s Memories comes to mind

    Blamemeta,

    Side quests. The game is about side quests

    Blamemeta,

    I kinda feel bad for some that worked on it. Theres places with passion, but a lot of it is just lazy bullshit.
