I can choose for this to make sense to me. I think it’s intended as gibberish though, so I don’t know what that means for me.

Wonderful game. It was my Lockdown game where me and my mates would just meet up and do whatever. The boat was our social hub and it was a great game to play in the background while just having a good time.

I bought a copy for a few of my friends just to get them in on it. I’m sad i never got into it until after lockdown when we all had more free time

FlihpFlorp, do gaming w If you understand this meme, I hope your back is feeling fine today.

What if the only reason I know what dk mode is, is from a just cause 3 Easter egg? Do I get a nice back?

Edit: I know what words are I swear (spelling)

Your back probably has a few good years left in it, lol

FlihpFlorp,

If my knees are anything to go by I’ll simply have no spine by my mid 20s

I have arthritis and I saw an ad for the med I take for it and everyone was like 60 or 70 💀

The_Picard_Maneuver,
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world avatar

Oh damn, arthritis meds by your (guessing) early 20s is rough. Sorry to hear that.

FlihpFlorp,

Yeah but medication I’m on really helped :D

nalinna,

Um, super weird question, but would you DM me what that medication is? I’m dealing with some aggressive degeneration and trying to get out in front of it as much as possible, so entertaining all possible options.

zcd,

The best thing I ever did for my back was take up weightlifting (Specifically deadlifts) I’ve got degenerative disease plus a herniated disc plus spinal arthritis and was living with chronic pain, and now I feel like I’m 20 again. I would encourage anybody with back pain to add deadlifts to their life if possible. Anybody needs any help getting started can drop me a line

nalinna,

I would heart this if I could. I just started lifting about 2 months ago.

zcd,

That’s awesome! Honestly I think its the best possible thing you can do for yourself. As your strength level comes up you start getting more useful and harder to injure

Man, that sounds exactly like me, only trying to get back to lifting (I used to, long before the back issues) was brutal pain. Just couldn’t hack it.

FlihpFlorp,

I’ll just throw it out but it’s xelganz

Idk if I got the spelling right but please talk to your doctor about it, I am not a doctor

nalinna,

I shall! Thank you!

FlihpFlorp,

Just wanna add emphasis on the I’m not a doctor part, I don’t know how well “it worked for an internet stranger” will hold up with your doctor

nalinna,

🤣 I’ll be sure to use that exact line on her. I’m sure she’ll love it.

FlihpFlorp,

It’ll work like a charm

Emerald, do gaming w How times change

I have a ThinkPad T61, a laptop from 2007, with only 4 GB of RAM. I can open Firefox with 10 tabs, including a Youtube video at 480p, and still have 1GB of RAM left. Yet people act like 8GB is unusable these days.

velvetThunder,

Is it windows or Linux based?

NikkiDimes,

I think it’s sarcasm based

Emerald,

No? I’m being serious

NikkiDimes,

10 tabs and a single video playing at 480p is usable to you? ._.

Emerald,

Linux

Veneroso,

Firefox yeah I could see that. If you were running Chromium you’d be having some trouble.

Personally 8gb is more comfortable, but if 4gb works for you, then who am I to tell you anything different?

I hope that you have an SSD in there at least!

frezik, do gaming w I've seen lecture halls larger than this.

Funny, but Opera has much the same problems. Especially when they were caught pushing predatory loans a few years back.

alvvayson, do gaming w The people who made these back in the day are heroes

I often do miss the internet of the old days.

Hosting a modern day gamefaqs would cost $500 per year or so.

I guess a wiki would be easier to offer version control, links and images for the author.

Maybe that would be $1000 a year.

dohpaz42,
@dohpaz42@lemmy.world avatar

A small vps should cost no more than $10/mo, and should be enough to run a text-based site (with compression) reasonably well. Obviously the gotcha will be bandwidth, but you could subsidize that with donations.

alvvayson,

I’m accounting for a domain name and sufficient bandwidth.

I figure 10 TB per month should be enough.

The $500 is a conservative estimate.

onion,

You could try hosting it at home on an old laptop and see how it goes

That’s 100% more bandwidth than not doing it at all

brygphilomena,

I have free hosting and free bandwidth essentially. Have any recommendations for a CMS dedicated to this?

The mods are shit too. I don’t know what their API is like but it’s clearly not good if you have this entire legacy of modded minecraft, a game which is (presumably) way better programmed and they’re actively paying people to do it, yet they can barely accomplish a 10th of the quality.

Even if they were good you’d have to interact with that horse-shit mobile game premium currency model (which absolutely should be made illegal) where you have to buy currency in packs with bigger packs having a discount and are never in sizes that are usable for a single purchase. Having to pay for mods is contentious enough as is, but putting it behind abusive MTX is going to be a deal breaker for the rest.

lud,

Isn’t it just because it’s still very new?

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

We’ll see if the trend holds in a month, a year, and a decade. I think the flaws holding it back will prevent any growth, charging money for mods is radioactive to the community as Railcraft had proven before they were forced by law not to paywall their updates.

Best case scenario we get the Google Play Store where people don’t make stuff because they want to, but because they want to make money, but like I pointed out that MTX scheme is absolutely going to result in bad and confusing payouts which will drive away even those people. If it turns out they’re paid in scrip- I mean minecoins, than at best you’re getting a bunch of kids who don’t understand labour exploitation yet.

EDIT: I looked into it and it’s mostly just kids who don’t understand how exploitative the whole thing is. The API is also extremely lacking.

Road_Warrior_10, do games w My wacky game made it to 4000 wishlists, have a meme as a thank you :)

The game is kind of inspired by The Stanley Parable and you can expect the same silliness. I posted here about it a few months ago and people seemed to like it. Here is the Steam link: <a href="">https://store.steampowered.com/app/2336120/Do_Not_Press_The_Button_To_Delete_The_Multiverse/</a>

ricecake, do gaming w What was Capcom thinking?

The goal should be fast travel people don’t want to use because travel is fun.
The Spiderman games for the most part made moving around the city fun enough that I didn’t fast travel, but it was still there for the times I had to go really far away.

If you need a feature that lets players skip a part of your game, you should either make that part better or just remove it. But you should still make concessions to players who want to skip it anyway. Like the little “skip cutscene” buttons.

djsoren19,

Travel is fun, Capcom are just a dumb company. You’ll get plenty of access to fast travel tokens throughout the game, but the act is still limited to only a handful of fast travel points. Cart travel has been my preferred method of going long distances, which does come with the risk of a griffon ambush, but griffon ambushes mean you get more combat.

grue,

IMO Morrowind did fast travel best: they integrated it into the world, kept it limited (fixed origins/destinations, plus mark/recall) and gave it an appropriate cost (time, gold, magicka, and/or effort needed to discover transit locations).

Zehzin,
@Zehzin@lemmy.world avatar

That is literally what Dragon’s Dogma does but they had to put that dumb shit in so now I can’t tell you how it’s cool.

grue,

The key differences are that Morrowind does not have microtransactions/paid mods, and does have the Elder Scrolls Construction set – so I’m pretty sure you could mod in a less limited fast travel mechanism if you really wanted.
