They both have very similar average scores though.

462k are the people that have created an account, Lemmy actually has ~40k active users (and even then “active” just means they logged in once this month). I do share the sentiment that not everything has to be super popular but Lemmy really could use more people.

I watched some videos for the game and I’m genuinely baffled by how bad the writing in this game is. The rest of the game looks fine but most of the dialogue really is Forespoken territory. I think SkillUp put it best when he said “It’s written like the HR is in the room”

The time and effort people put into these games never ceases to amaze me. This looks very impressive.

I remember the series on Newgrounds, it’s a fun time.

RIP Edd. Gone way too soon.

MediEvil. It’s not a horror game, but I always think of it as the game that carries the Halloween feeling the best.

Star Citizen is a game that exists, so sure, maybe “scam” isn’t the right word for it, but they’re still insanely sketchy. They constantly make promises they never meet, constantly beg the community for more funding when they already have an outrageous amount of funding, add insanely overpriced microtransactions to try to profit off whales, etc…

SC is driven by hype and nothing else. So many years later it still runs like ass and is very barebones, there’s a giant question mark on where all that money went and how the project is being handled. No Man’s Sky had a fraction of the budget and size and they managed to do so much more.

At best it’s the worst managed video game project of all time.

Also the title is so misleading because it acts like it’s missing a vital component when most people really wouldn’t care about alternate covers…

Yeah, a lot of manufacturers are just bad. I knew people who had Dell and MSI laptops and those things feel like toys. Cheap plastic and very wobbly hinges. The only manufacturer I genuinely trust is Lenovo. My Legion is a bit thick but I can at least rest easy that it’s built well.

It’s not ideal, but you’re getting probably the best hardware in the market in return. The M series still dominates Windows CPUs, and the build quality on most $1000 laptops leaves a lot to be desired.

I really wouldn’t mind a remake of Left 4 Dead 2 with better netcode and more official maps.

That’s a shame. It looked like a pretty good survival game, but the very lackluster launch and being released around the time Palworld & Enshrouded killed it.

As for indies, there’s also a ton that are good. Just recently we got #DRIVE Rally, Victory Heat Rally, WHAT THE CAR?, Aero GPX, and some others I forgot.

It will stay an echo chamber until mods step up and start removing low-effort posts. Also, people are downvoting me in favor of a fake account with one post lmao. That’s how bad it is.

When sockpuppet accounts are posting to unrelated communities, no shit I’ll complain. “Rich people are bad” is not a showerthought and you know it, but I guess let’s just spam the platform with this nonsense and keep making new accounts to boost these posts. What’s wrong with that?

So I guess showerthoughts is going to be the new platform .ml users will use to complain about capitalism? OP is a brand new account and this was their first and only post.

Yes, I will keep calling this out.

Seriously. I don’t doubt a lot of effort is going into it but I’ve been hearing “gimp 3 soon” for like 3 years now

Not likely. Game Pass and other similar services stopped offering many deals like they used to for indie studios. I started using it again recently but it feels like so many games have been taken off, likely due to Game Pass not performing as well as they expected it to
