Hell yeah, that’s awfully nice of them. I have fond memories of playing Unreal Tournament '99

I thought I read this before, and sure enough it’s a follow up to a 2023 article

TL;DR: 21 year old national guard leaked classified documents on Discord for attention and got caught for it. Nice work.

I have seen a TON of ad postings for the Gamurs group which the article talks about. Every time I browse jobs, I see at least one of the websites they own having a vacancy. The job description is just abysmal, saying things like you’re expected to make ~30 articles a month with around $20 per article. Glad this is being called out.

You’re not mistaken actually, this game changed a lot and was apparently supposed to release in 2022 as a looter shooter. They delayed it, changed it to be a slower paced extraction shooter instead.

Most people are in !asklemmy@lemmy.world

The best part: You don’t need to login to use the app anymore, finally!

Surprisingly little talk about playing windows games on Android. Winlator is starting to get very popular and is becoming a big deal, within a year it’ll probably be able to play most 3D games.

We’ve known this for a while. LLMs are a dead end, lots of companies have tried throwing more data at it but it’s becoming clear the differences between each model and the next are getting too small to notice, and none of them fix the major underlying issue that chat models keep spreading BS because it can’t differentiate between right and wrong

I really don’t care all that much about the three officers that join Caitlyn and Vi.

Yeah the unnamed shield officer was especially bizarre. They had to have cut out some scenes related to him during production or something because he shows up, drinks with Vi for a bit, and joins the party with zero context.

did you feel the writing just got messy in general or does it seem like they were stretching stuff out in order to split the season up into multiple parts to delay the conclusion?

This will be the last season, actually. I felt like some plotlines were moving a little too fast, especially in episode 3.

That’s how any platform or store works. I don’t understand what you want to be happening. Consumers will go to whatever store they like more and you’ll always have the choice to use another store.

If you’ve got a ton of games on Steam, but want to switch to GOG for the DRM-free stuff?

Why not use both?

They’ve trapped us in these separate little worlds where each one has its own “exclusives” and sales, forcing us to juggle multiple accounts just to find a good deal or play the games we want.

So do you just want one platform, or…?

I guess you really have to put up with it.

That the devs helped create apparently.

Kingdoms of Amalur has very fun, very flashy combat. The rest of the game is really ehhh, but if you just want to blast magic and have cool skills then it’s a great choice.

Yup, things have definitely improved, especially with more extremist instances like lemmygrad being defederated and phased out. I do also want to give a shoutout to the devs for not pushing their stance and letting the platform grow naturally.

The second one is an older application of the first patent (pokeball again). The third one is literally just being able to mount an object or creature with some caveats like a flying one having to come down and carry you up, that one is ridiculous and a lot of games do something similar all the time.

Yes, some instances are problematic, yes, some devs might have had problematic views.

I mean that’s basically the crux of it. That, and some moderation drama, and the software being very buggy a year ago giving people a bad first impression, and Lemmy still being susceptible to spam.

It’ll take some time before Lemmy (and the Threadiverse as a whole) improves its reputation and moves on from the “it’s a tankie website” take. That said, a lot of people in that thread are making the case for Lemmy, so it’s mostly just people worried it’s not as popular.

That’s not exactly it. I read the description of '191 and it seems to be more like “throwing a ball to capture a character and place it in the player’s possession or throwing it to release a captured character”. You can see the patent drawings also depecting that, so it’s basically a patent of the Pokeball.

Not a lawyer so I have no idea how it’ll go in court but it does sound like Palworld infringes on this. It’s kinda funny that they could’ve avoided this by being a bit more legally distinct, like how TemTem throws cards instead of balls.

That depends on app developers, not MS. Having apps actually work through a translation layer would ease a lot of people’s problems when transitioning to ARM though.
