I came into this post expecting an introspective discussion on OP’s life based on the title. I leave amused by the simplicity of reality.

Another day another corporate hit piece to take down valve. They aren’t going anywhere. They’re a private company with no plans on going public ever. From what I hear, the company leadership will transfer to the lead engineer who shares the same visions as Gabe. Why would you want a personal money printer in your pocket to go public and then just get absolutely raped by some investor pieces of sshit when you have one of the highest profit to employee ratios in the entire industry. It makes absolutely no sense to strangle this Golden goose even for the greediest of people.

I swear to God the news is just fucking awful these days just paid hit pieces to spread whatever view some rich guy wants. This is all because valve won’t bend the knee and is disrupting industries and poising to dethrone Microsoft right now in the OS space and they’ve also branched into hardware. Other companies are threatened by them.

We’ve established a name already in the indie space for these. It’s a “horde survival shooter” damnit.

Not to be confused with the plain old “horde shooter” like your helldivers 2 and what not

Honestly drone defense should be handled by a branch of the military. The Air Force, navy or hell the national guard. Police can’t be trusted with our safety…

Use none of them. Embrace funny duck

• Floss
• Mouthwash
• Rinse
• Brush with electric toothbrush 45 full seconds getting full coverage.
• One real good spit.
• Don’t rinse

Enjoy perfect teeth

Honestly this is less true the more you bake. I find myself tearing recipes apart and substituting/modifying amounts of all sorts of ingredients.

Sure if you want to make a fluffy white cake or a classic chocolate chip cookie you better do that by the book but you can get pretty creative with baking if you know what you’re doing.

RIGHT BETWEEN! DOWN THE LINE!

Depose party

Sounds familiar 🤔

Why do you think valve is under fire from every angle lately? They are winning and winning fairly and some people don’t like that.

Occasionally we get the odd tech update but they consider it basically finished now.

But the tl:dr is

• Bugs fixed

• Optimized

• Gameplay enhanced

• Dlc is amazing

Y’know they actually did

Nah you’re right. It’s overrated. It shaked the Zelda formula up and that’s all that people see in it. It has a ton of fun details in the world sure but let’s be honest BOTW has like 8 different enemies you will fight over and over. The shrines aren’t even a challenge after the first third of the game since you know the ins and outs of your abilities. Your abilities are all gained right at the start too and there’s no cool loot other than another bow or a random melee weapon.

The open world nature kills so much of the story pacing and cinematic elements we have come to expect from the series. Then there’s the whole no real dungeons thing. a Zelda dungeon used to be an all day affair. Took you hours with a challenging unique boss fight at the end. The beasts we got and the copy pasted phantom ganons were so lame.

I honestly feel like they serious took a dramatic dip in theming and focus with BOTW. It took a dramatic leap forward in innovation for the series but it really doesn’t feel like a legend of Zelda game anymore.

Tears of the kingdom is just The Legend of Zelda Nuts and Bolts. Change my mind

It can be put into Bluetooth mode. Works just as well. As someone who lost their dongle

Boredom is your brain urging you too change your behavior. The magic of gaming will return if you take a nice break and focus on yourself and other things. At least it works that way for me.

Yeah an AI can make clone slop sure. Enjoy your slop

To make a videogame (that’s worth being played) you need to innovate and iterate and find fun in the mechanics by testing them for “fun”

An AI doesn’t inovate. An AI doesn’t have “fun”

AI cannot make an original videogame

I dare them. Striking is the peaceful compromise.

Cyberpunk 2077. It was hated on release but it really has made a comeback after 2.0 was released.

I think cyberpunk really puts so many triple A titles to shame when it comes to the quality of the characters and quests.
