I randomly downloaded Subnautica when it was free on Epic for a bit and it became one of the best games I’ve ever experienced, it’s equally peaceful and scary and I had a lot of fun exploring the biomes and finding Easter eggs and getting grabbed by big red lol. Sad what happened with the company that made it, I didn’t like subzero as much, hopefully someday I come across another game that hooks me like this game did

edit: When I made this years ago a friend warned me that some folks would not recognize it as satire. I didn’t believe it possible for anyone to be that stupid.

14th_cylon,

no need to introduce yourself

saltnotsugar,

Dumb.

14th_cylon,

yes, you are. we know, you already said that.

14th_cylon,

joke and sarcasm is unfortunately lost on dumbasses who can’t read more than 4 words of headline 🤷‍♂️

PapaStevesy,

My friend that’s a yt video, what the fuck are you on about?

14th_cylon,

well that’s the right burn, now you got me. because everyone knows there are no words in youtube videos, especially in song texts. 🤦‍♂️

PapaStevesy,

Ah yes, please read this video to me, don’t forget the headline 🙃🫠🤣🤪💩

14th_cylon,

the fact you probably truly believe you are delivering some burn is the sad part here.

as per your request, let me read the video to you (if you have trouble reading, you can always listen to itm but it still requires turning on your brain):

columbus saw the ocean
he sailed far and wide
just to get a cup of spices
from the other side
he knew he would die for sure
if he should reach the edge
but that’s okay cause long before
he’d starve to death instead

the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat

earth’s an oblate spheroid
revolving around the sun
spinning on its axis
which is tilted just for fun
that explains the seasons there
and the changing length of day
but here’s an inconvinient truth
you can’t explain that way

the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat

trump won re-election
he won it by a mile
only to protect us
from the socialist pedophiles
but biden wants the mail and ballots
counted and at what cost
he is so out of touch
he can’t admit when he has lost

the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat

endless interventions
never-ending war
all to please the oligarchs
and economic horse
but lower taxes on the rich
and do it really quick
my ship is coming in soon
and i don’t want to pay for it

the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat
the world is flat

azimir,

Would you like some sulfur to go with your pseudoscience, fascism, and stupidity?

14th_cylon,

would you like to learn to read and understand words?

14th_cylon, (edited )

here we are, in the the astronomy community, that should attract rather smarter people, but most of you are as lazy as average flat-earher and did not bother to even click the link before following in steps of the first downvoter. if that person jumped off the cliff, i am afraid most of you would follow, because it is easier than to use your own brain.

i made myself sad on new year.

(for the extra lazy ones who don’t have time to listen to the lyrics of his social commentary, he put that blackboard there with kepler’s 3rd law to give you hint he might not actually believe the earth is flat. but that would require using at least 10 of your brain cells. good luck next time when you complain about stupidity of the “other side”.

14th_cylon,

and from the native speakers, i’d like an opinion - is he singing oblate spheroid at the beginning of 3rd paragraph? or is he singing old blade, which is what i hear, and is it some strange poetic phrase?

tate,
@tate@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

It is “oblate spheroid.”

14th_cylon,

thank you

Soupbreaker,

Just in the interest of cheering you up a bit, I’d like to point out that many people simply refuse to click on YouTube links. Personally, I have no desire to engage with video content, especially when it’s shared with little to no context. It’s not out of laziness, but more out of a conviction that far too many people have outsourced their thinking to random vloggers, and believe that posting a link to their favorite video essay lends credibility to their argument.

14th_cylon,

believe that posting a link to their favorite video essay lends credibility to their argument.

unfortunately that is definitely a trend. but then you also have the person who grabs one rhyme out of context and comments it aged like a milk, meaning they did open the video, listened to it and absolutely did not understood.

i am also not going to watch every 60 minutes long video someone posts me in a discussion, but if i am invested in the discussion so much i care about answering or voting on something, i at least try to understand the concept of the video and what it is trying to say.

the headline in this case did not help, but i rarely see such an example of crowd behaviour concentrated in such short time as was the case with this link.

very_well_lost,

People aren’t lazy, we just all live in a social media landscape where, when someone posts a link with an intentionally provocative title, it’s rarely worth the effort to engage with it enough to find out if they’re being sarcastic or sincere.

Sometimes this means that well-meaning people get downvoted. Oh well. Learn to read the room.

neidu3,

Satire only works if it’s outlandish enough not to reflect a widely held belief, even if it’s a stupid one.

mkmusic, do games w Among 2025 games with over 10K reviews, Deltarune is the most highly rated

I felt like Deltarune was a bit lacklustre compared to Undertale. Even though Undertale had very basic gameplay, it did a good job in implementing that. Deltarune feels too over the place. Undertale had a better story as well. Might just be me though. ​:ablobcatblink:​

Baldur’s Gate 3 was pretty good - aside from the mega-thirsty player-sexual NPCs - but I’m replaying the originals now and enjoying them more. Didn’t play a single other game in this list!

I wish my wife could play subnautica with me, as she likes swimming around and stuff but isn’t really “good” at video games, since she never played one until adulthood.

In Minecraft it’s mostly me doing the work while she does farming stuff. I once came back from a deep mining trip to see a once-empty field filled to the maximum with cows. We had a nice library afterward though.

I still haven’t beaten subnautica without cheating or taking shortcuts. Heck when I first downloaded it, it didn’t even have an ending yet.

9.3/10, it’s fun

zikzak025,

Well she’s too busy taking care of young Molly to be able to make the time. Maybe have Worf babysit?

That’s how my girlfriend is too lol. I’m kind of the one handling all the mechanical stuff when we play while she handles everything non too mechanical. I think she could figure it out if she set her mind to it, but I’m more than happy to help her out.

For beating the game, I’m not sure I could beat it to begin with. I think I’d get sidetracked and lose track of the story, even though I have a feeling it’s not too long

Try planet crafter, similar feel for the bases, but what a game (I’ve been hooked since I started)

Cavemanfreak,

Great game! I do have to mess with the settings since I think it’s way too grindy otherwise, but that’s just another plus for the game. Haven’t played the DLCs yet though…

@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I think Planet Crafter has been on my wishlist. I didn’t know it’s like subnautica’s bases though. I’ll have too check it out!

Kazumara,

Since the graphic is counting sales in units sold I guess free to download “live services” wouldn’t really appear.

Would be interesting to see the same counting revenues.

I don’t think Sandy did much game design on Doom though. He was mainly a level designer who came in late in the project to finish the levels started by Tom Hall, who had left id software, and to grind out levels for the third episode. By the time Sandy joined id software, Doom (the engine and game mechanics) was already pretty much the game it was going to be.

I should also say that the maps he made for Doom and Doom 2 are by far my least favorite in the game.

Well at least one of those Switch Sports sales was a double buy by me because somehow the first digital copy I purchased, and played many times and put maybe 20 hours into golf, just decided to up and pretend I never bought it. One day it just told me I needed to buy it and my trial period was over. Despite having already bought it years before. I couldn’t find the proof of purchase email even though I had one for every other game. I emailed Nintendo, they said they had no record of my purchase even though they could clearly see dozens of hours played across multiple sports. I also have a video of my kid playing it like a year before this happened. I eventually just re bought it. It was honestly one of the weirdest and unsettling experiences of my life. Like a portion of my life was deleted and only I remembered. Even my brother was doubting me.

Heard Subnautica has a good VR mod, so that definitely puts it on my list. The list is huge though. Maybe sometime this year…

Suck_on_my_Presence,

I tried the VR mod a year or two ago and it was pretty good except for the way that the character moves does not compute to the way normal people move, so it was making me suuuper sick. The strafing in particular was bad.

excursion22,

I replayed Subnautica in VR with the mentioned mod not too long ago. It’s an environment that’s perfect for VR and really puts the scale of things in perspective. I found some of the leviathans were a little janky in their movement sometimes, but they were still quite terrifying.

Happy New Year! I do love Subnautica myself, and I'm actually working on a building/creative playthrough rn with the large rooms that I've never used before, for fun (so much titanium!).
And if nothing else, I'm assuming you bought the game before the whole... whatever is going on right now with all that. You are clear to enjoy.

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I ended up getting it through other means I’m not sure I’m allowed to mention (though I own an Xbox copy too), but a friend who checks these had a Steam Key from a while ago I guess that he just forgot to use it, so I guess I got a moral and legal copy. It’s a shame about Below Zero, I doubt I could pull luck like that again.

I hope the base building goes well! It’s definitely a therapeutic experience just sitting back and building

sirimeow, do games w Day 533 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

This is one of my favourite games ever. One of those I wish I could erase from my memory so I could play it for the first time again.

Also very disappointed about all the bullshit with the sequel and the devs.

bagelberger,

I played a hardcore mod of the game and it was like playing the game for the first time again, give it a shot!

MyNameIsAtticus,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I remember watching the development. It’s sad seeing what happened to it. I was really excited for the sequel too because of the multiplayer

nforminvasion,

Try it with mods again. But you may have to downgrade the game to the previous major version as a lot of the best mods aren’t updated anymore.
