“securing a Google Pixel Phone” would be a more appropriate headline.

anyone without a pixel, this guide will do nothing for you.

good lord, man. that’s a lot of empty, teenage-like rage to have to read through. this guy is dramatically clawing his face and screaming in anger over a 20 minute gameplay video.

the game looks fine, dude. can we save the hysterics for when the game is released?

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

down votes I don’t care about. what depresses me is how extra, obnoxious and angry people have become when it comes to new titles.

we can’t just say “I don’t know if this game looks like its for me.” any longer. we instead have to go full rage-nerd and call for the fall of video games and the end of the universe when a game doesn’t appeal to us.

articles like this keep that toddler-tantrum response normalized and I dislike it. I dislike it very very much.

I’m all for another game in the franchise, but quidditch isn’t a very compelling part of the world for me.

as a sports game, quidditch feels shaky. its fine for narrative purposes, but it’s not a real sport. so I’m not sure how they will build it into one.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I always thought the whole point of quidditch was to put the protag as the most important position in the game.

but yeah I’ve seen “quidditch” being played. I’m just not certain how compelling it is without a protagonist player.

I went to ddg looking for yoga with solaire and then found nothing and was heartbroken.

but yeah I’m a huge HL and HP fan in general and I’m planning to skip this one because I don’t really care about quidditch. its only real interest to me was as a cool plot tool. nothing more.

Nima,

nothing whatsoever. but they need to feel important about something, I suppose.

@Nima@leminal.space avatar

don’t waste your time with these weirdos. they throw around labels of transphobia for daring to disagree with anyone that doesn’t share their narrow, obsessive world views.

looks great. the combat reminds me of dragon age 2. I’m quite excited!

But Gale is so lovely and nerdy! A handsome nerdy wizard! My dream come true.

Maybe because most people experience the art? and don’t feel the need to inflate their ego by thinking their interpretation or experience is the best way to interpret something?

this feels like a bunch of nerds sitting around complaining that gamers miss stuff, while not understanding that most gamers don’t miss it. they just experience it and don’t feel the need to externalize it.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

how do you know I’m not appreciative of the art as I’m playing?

I’ve seen quite a lot of symbolism, meaning, and expressions through video games. but not every video game is made for artistic expression. they can be, to great effect IMHO.

either way, how the art is experienced is entirely up to the individual player. and there’s no definitive way to experience art. that… kind of defeats the purpose of art, ya know?

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

that was my point. there’s no definitive “right way” to experience or find purpose in art.

I would agree that sharing our experience with others is important. they might have a different take.

he gets all of us the first time. that handsome elf.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I suppose it could be viewed that way. But considering he understood his own feelings and even asked for intimacy later on, I don’t really see it as harmful.

Lae’zel almost got me too. I was so very tempted. lol

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

my bard instincts almost got me for her lol. I was like reloading saves lol.

but I’d been through the bite scene and I was interested. so every other romance option immediately got temporarily tabled. 😏

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I just plan to romance everyone. even though I am doing the men first. lol

dude I’ve been using it for a couple of days. I absolutely love this. I even found the setting to use an image as a background and it works great! this is my all time use keyboard now. was very happy to get rid of Swiftkey.

Comments no longer visible with youtube frontends?

Are comments no longer visible for anyone else using the youtube frontends? I can no longer see comments with either invidious, piped, or viewtube, and I’ve tried several instances of each. With invidious there’s just nothing there below the video description. With viewtube I get an error message. And with piped I see...

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

my comments work on freetube, but not immediately. I gotta ask it to load comments a couple of times before it stops spazzin and shows them.

Just a small crime. As a treat!

it would be nice to have twitch just be for streaming again without sex crap on there.

there are so many places to stream sexy content. why can’t we have one that doesn’t?

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I guess because sex has to be included everywhere now. we can’t just have places for normal streamers to go.

it’s very annoying.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I’m not entirely sure what this comment was for. because adult content gets suggested to me on twitch.

I am not against titty streamers, but there’s websites dedicated to that already. we can have one place free of that, surely.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I never said there weren’t normal streamers on twitch.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I’d say it’s an appropriate community, yes! always love to see someone enjoying the series.

“Andrew Wilson had some bots, EA AI O.”

I have no idea why, but this made me chuckle.

Nima,

it is a bit. maybe that was why it was memorable.

This reads like a nintendo representative is holding a gun at the temple of whoever was forced to write this.

trying to make it look like they weren’t pressured by nintendo and instead opted to do this willingly kinda destroys their entire image.

maybe they should have listened when it was recommended against having a paywall version of the software. live and learn, I guess.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I feel terrible that these devs have to address a bunch of crybabies who are sending death threats for the most insane and entitled reason ever.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

The whole situation has been absolutely absurd, honestly. I can’t believe that the entire community hasn’t shunned every single modder who actually put their name to that insane “petition”.

It reads like an immature attempt at authority. Here’s hoping it’s forgotten swiftly, and those who signed are made to feel silly for even supporting such a childish view.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

a bunch of modders created a silly petition that essentially breaks down to entitlement.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I’m avoiding everything about it. video game movies are generally a misrepresentation of the source material entirely. so I never have hope for any video game movie. and borderlands is a franchise I actually really love.

and after seeing the cast, I think it’s going to be a disaster. 😭

hell yeah, you are. 👈😎👈

Standing in this spot behind Astarion's tent in the Act 1 camp will play a unique song that I haven't heard elsewhere. (lemmy.world)

The instrumentals you can hear all over but if you stand in this spot the song will start playing lyrics. I thought that was neat since I had never heard it in the hundreds of hours I’ve played so far.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

I had no idea about this. I loaded up an old save to check. Thank you! This is lovely.

Nexus hosts tons of switch mods. I’m not sure why this is suddenly “scary”.

Nima,
@Nima@leminal.space avatar

that’s fair, I suppose. But golly it makes game freak look weak. at least imho.
