I think “destiny is already dead” would be more accurate. I’ve introduced players to the game across multiple eras of destiny and it’s only gotten harder. Last one they asked what to do next and I just said “fuck if I know, what’s the map say?”

For a game that is increasingly inaccessible to new players, the only thing to do is fall off, and the monthly player count reflects that. It could maybe be saved if they un-vaulted everything and stopped monitizing the fuck out of it, but even then it’s lost too much blood.

Is that you, every republican lawmaker?

Yes. They RMAd my left index controller a year out of warranty, in addition to always replying within hours. Literally never had a better support experience.

Meta on the other hand is a slew of incompetent fucks that have zero power, until you finally get pushed through to their “specialist team” who takes a fucking full day for EACH REPLY, and even then I had to basically demand a refund for something that was never shipped to me, and (once I bought one later) discovered it literally could not have even fit in the box they sent the other shit in.

Maybe that’d be an excuse for the first reaction, but pirate also literally watched the second video then claimed exactly the opposite of what the video actually said.

Tl;Dr is that the SKG drama made drama farmers on YouTube look closer at him and discover that he’s an egotistical piece of shit that lies to make himself look better, and he’s basically the new yandere dev with his game heartbound (making little to no progress over 10ish years while blaming the community for not being grateful/recognizing his genius/etc.).

did sort of sound like it was trying to force developers to continue support for servers indefinitely.

Y’know, except the part where he very explicitly said that wasn’t what SKG was asking for.

preemptive banning

Zoned out here. Sounds like digging for a pretense for a retaliatory ban and that escalated. From the 2 minutes of attention I gave this it sounds like everyone involved needs to touch grass.

The 3 door thing made me think MXC so maybe it’s Guy leDouche

Also, if everyone’s out there getting shot, then of course I need a gun to protect myself.

Kinda wish op injected a prompt to nuke the bot owner’s machine instead.

Other commenter got it. 200 hours is just JUST to get through the main story that unlocks the other stuff. The “other stuff” is like 95% of the content and the main story is just the barrier to entry.

Honestly can’t comprehend why anyone would make alts aside from access to additional retainers for free and maybe playing across data centers, but playing the main story is a fucking GRAND EPIC ADVENTURE that takes about 200 goddamn hours. You will literally never run out of things to do on one character in ff14. Ever.

Wait you actually know someone that fell for that? That’s nuts. I know they planned to monetize digital real estate before the metaverse even existed but I didn’t realize it actually happened.

Allowed? Half the time I can’t use the fucker unless it updates.

If they’re dumb enough to give Claude access to prod, they certainly either didn’t have backups or put Claude in charge of keeping them.

I tagged you as “whiny edge case bitch” because it seems like all you do complain about edge cases on tech posts. I only checked the past few days of comments and it seems like a common theme, but feel free to let me know if it’s actually an edge case.

The expensive ones are also made with slavery, they just charge you more for the branding.

He doesn’t even make points. He reframes the debate, moves the goalposts, and tortures definitions in such a way that his carefully worded “stance” is basically a tautology, while proving absolutely nothing. It is the most astonishing intellectual dishonesty I have ever seen.

He’s also a Christian nationalist fascist so fuck him twice.

That’s farm casual. Farm business is full overalls and a straw hat.

I just kinda accumulated pints and whiskey glasses and one day I realized I have no “regular” glassware. Then my girlfriend moved in with like 30 mismatched mugs and we are now almost exactly left cabinet.
