Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Parents of Lemmy, how much do you spend on Christmas presents for your kids each year?English
10·24 days agoProbably less, but it may well have been roughly similar. I think when they were younger they ended up getting more “stuff” but it was cheaper items. Mostly board games and toys that I thought they might like, rather than specific stuff they ask for these days. Well, I ask them, because I’d rather get them stuff they want/need.
I feel like the pile of presents was bigger in those days at least.

14·24 days agoParent of late teens here - around £200 each (usually clothes or various bits they’ve asked for), unless there’s a big present involved that I’m interested in too (like a new games console), which would be a more expensive year.

412·29 days agoI got you. It’s an entry in the Portal franchise, with the “2” indicating that it is the second in the series.

5·1 month agoThe list is in the description of the video.
He does plenty of smaller video essays, but this was something he’d been working up to for a while.

35·1 month agoI’ve been subscribed to this guy for a while now, ever since this video came up on my recommended feed. I love his soothing, almost ASMR delivery, and the points he raises about filmmaking are always superb. One of my favourite YouTube channels.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•The Elder Scrolls 6 is "still a long way off", says Todd Howard, but development is his "everyday thing"English
33·1 month agoThere’s a very good chance that my daughter, who was too young to play games when Skyrim was released, will be long into adulthood by the time TES 6 is released. Blows my mind.
Not my bag, but I reckon hent.ai would be a popular niche.

51·1 month agoNo doubt, but with 2 billion users and 76% of UK adults using it, it’s a welcome addition for those who use it as their primary messaging app.

And these are just a few off the top of my head that I’ve played.
Although to be fair, I guess we could just as easily reel off a list of garbage equivalents, but I think the throwaway that licensed games suck is a misconception.

Games@lemmy.world•Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, now on GOGEnglish
11·2 months agoI can highly recommend this if you’re any kind of Indy fan. It masterfully replicates the globetrotting adventure vibe and swashbuckling fighting of the movies, and Indy’s voice actor absolutely nails it.

Games@lemmy.world•Microsoft's ambitious new Xbox: Your entire Xbox console library, the full power of Windows PC gaming, and no multiplayer paywallEnglish
41·2 months agoIf this releases with full support for existing Xbox libraries as suggested, this would be the absolute perfect device for my household, where we’ve accrued literally hundreds of Xbox games since 2001, and would love to open up to PC games from a device in the living room. For me, it’s the best of both. That said, it’s still dependent on avoiding exorbitant pricing.
