miklo, do zapytajszmer w Jak przekonujecie aktywistów/tki, że używanie jedynie fakebooka do działalności nie jest najlepszym pomysłem?
@miklo@szmer.info avatar

“szeregowy” aktywista będzie uzywał alternatyw jeżeli “jego” organizacje będa ich używać. Dlatego trzeba “atakować” w tej sprawie ludzi, którzy odpowiadają za komunikację w organizacjach. Żeby stworzyli i utrzymywali przynajmniej jeden kanał społecznościowy niezależny od korporacji. I nie traktowali tego kanału per noga , jako drugiego sortu, w stylu, że wrzucają na nim linki do FB/TT/IG , tylko żeby faktycznie to był kanał dzięki któremu mozna być na bieżąco z działaniami organizacji bez odwiedzania korpomediów. A kolejny krok (w zasadzie to można i należy go wykonać od razu) to swego rodzaju wyznaczenie priorytetów czyli poinformowanie publiki, że owszem mamy różne kanały komunikacji ale polecamy używać tych a nie tamtych bo… i tu lista powodów. Świetnie ma to zrobione na stronie np. framasoft.org/en/

JASN_DE, do gaming w VR is an absolute game changer for racing games

Or go the much cheaper way of standard rig + head tracking.

You’d still need to keep your eyes locked dead centre of the screen while you move for that. To each their own though. Natural movement and tracking is a game changer

I’ve been playing Metroid Prime 4. It’s ok, only more of what I expected, nothing incredible like Dread was for me. You can definitely feel how it’s cobbled together after being in development hell.

I finally picked up Dave the Diver on sale, looking forward to digging into that soon.

THE ONLY REASON TO PREORDER IS TO ENSURE YOU HAVE A COPY ON LAUNCH.

Do you think they will run out of digital copies of you to download? (Just in case someone doesn’t know, that’s not how digital downloads work)

It’s that fucking simple. Pre-order bonuses are almost never worth it on their own, and even for those that are, you’re enabling and supporting a predatory/anti-consumer practice.

No, I wait 3 years usually. All bugs fixed, everything works, mods in great shape and price down 50%. Plenty of games older than 3 years also and much lower hardware requirements.

I made an exception for Elden Ring last time but that’s about it.

There’s isn’t anything particularly wrong about preordering something you’re most certainly going to get day-one, although those are few and far between these days. After all, even fan favorites often come with bugs and glitches day one and you can still encourage producers (and raise kpis) by wishlisting a game instead so they know demand exists. Same for downloading a pre-release demo - they track that.

Early access is usually indie with a few exceptions, so supporting them is good too except when you’re a big fan and would rather see the finished work without spoilers. None the less, support can still exist in other forms.

I personally do neither, but this is more because of financial reasons and my already stupidly huge backlog. The only game I might have preordered this year would have been Silksong and only didn’t because they didn’t permit it. I knew it wouldn’t be released with… ahem, bugs… and that I would certainly play and enjoy it.

Every other 2025 gem was a surprise after release, though.

Never in my life. I want to read the reviews, at a minimum. Too many games with some booshit on launch day, if not at least several months after. I am incredibly psyched for the new Control game but it’ll be at least a few months before I pick it up.

Never: did it ounce or twice with physical games that may sell out at the local store but that is no longer relevant.

RightHandOfIkaros, (edited ) do games w Do you preorder games?

I only preorder a game if I know I want to play it right when it comes out and want to be able to preload the game, and if it comes from a developer I know will not disappoint me (FromSoftware, Kojima Productions, anything from Yoko Taro, etc.).

In the past I used to preorder to reserve a physical copy as soon as it was released, but there is generally no need for that anymore. This makes me both happy and sad, because for all the hassle it was, I kinda miss some aspects of the simpler times. In some ways, I do wish the world could rewind to the 2000s.

Early Access is different from preordering because you gain access to the product instantly, and generally can influence the direction of the game in a hopefully positive way. Providing feedback on what works and what doesn’t is an important part of playing and early access game. A lot of people seem to ignore this.

Tywele, do games w Do you preorder games?

I only pre order a game when I 100% know that I will buy it on release anyway which is not very often.

I don’t like Early Access at all. I usually wait until they are fully released as I don’t like unpolished games.

I think if the games are relevant to you and you wish to support them, are excited and whatnot. then its perfectly fine to pre-order.

I really only pre-order if its an early access or a game I’m super excited for.

just recently pre-ordered hytale. can’t wait til early access!

It’s a rare breed of game that gets me pre-ordering these days. It has to be something I know I will want, from a dev/publisher with a proven track record of making good shit and not being exploitative to customers, and be more about multiplayer than single.

I haven’t pre-ordered for any other reason since they stopped giving you physical swag for doing so (and it only was $5 down and could be cancelled for a refund while still keeping the swag and digital distribution wasn’t even a thing, so they actually could run out of copies).

It kind of makes me wish we got some sort of “Dungeon Master” tools to make our own campaigns, but then again, at that point just run D&D with some friends i suppose.

There is a DM mode in BG3! www.ign.com/wikis/baldurs-gate-3/Custom_Mode

snooggums,

That isn’t DM mode, it is a very nice set of customization optimizations.

In Neverwinter Nights there was a DM mode that let one player be the DM instead of one of the characters. They could drop in creatures and objects and control them in real time, which was awesome! That is what I was hoping they would be adding, something where we could basically play DnD in the world maps of BG3, but with on the fly encounters and pacing instead of being preset.

yermaw,

I want this dynamic, in VR. Players with headsets on while a DM makes the world on the PC.

We can live how Knightmare looked like it felt

TacoEvent,

Ah that sucks. :(
