It was never about fun. It’s about experiencing the game.

When I read a book, the goal is to have whatever experience the book is going to give me, and leave my own life behind for a while.

Getting lost in a AAA fantasy world with super-high-fidelity graphics is an amazing experience.

That’s funny. Because unlike WoT, I loved Fallout. The bad acting was part of the schtick.

How do you know my Lemmy password?

Chicken sashimi is a thing in Japan. It’s slightly cooked on the outside.

Yet I played it so much I can hear it in my head right now.

In today’s dollars, my local video game store in 1991 was selling Wizardry for the NES for $141.

Fuck, the average AAA Atari 2600 game was $99 in today’s dollars. Games like Pitfall and Pac-Man.

Just some perspective. I’m going to go yell at a cloud or something, now.

Maybe?

Nah

There’s literally no difference. Each Discord server is like a tiny chunk of Reddit. If anyone expected any privacy on these servers, they’re nuts.

I definitely did! I guess maybe you can see why I was so exasperated. 😳

That’s why I only post questions for bleeding-edge languages and code libraries. I have to answer them myself.

lemmy is just gobbling it up every day. It’s so tiring.

Are you fucking serious? All I ever see on Lemmy is prople saying “AI slop” over and over and over and over again… in like every comment section of every post. It could be a picture that was actually hand-drawn, or a photograph that was definitely not AI, or articles written by someone “sounding like AI”. The AI hate on Lemmy is WAY overpowering any support.

Why did you add like a hundred spaces in front of the list of states? That makes it a code block that requires tons of horizontal scrolling to read. I didn’t even recognize it as such at first.

You know Lemmy has spoiler syntax, right? If that’s what you were going for?

I don’t get why people would even care about having a car door that requires slightly less force to unlatch to begin with…

Because it’s not “slightly” less. It’s completely automatic. On a Toyota Sienna, for instance, a tiny flick of the sliding door handle causes the door to open all the way electronically. A 90 year old with arthritis could do it. Meanwhile, that same handle also manually opens the door but requires a fuck ton more force.

1/3 equals 1/4 because in both cases you have 1.

Also… I don’t think it has a name, but dubiously claiming any of these examples in an argument. Maybe it’d just be called “deflection”.

I’ve seen so many valid arguments shutdown as whataboutism, sealioning, concern trolling when they were valid arguments. It’s just as much bullshit as actually doing any of those things.

I highly doubt it was the code. They probably reduced texture and background fidelity and compressed the cutscenes heavily. It’s simply impossible to reduce a codebase by 91% and have it still be recognizable. However, the N64 had better hardware and it’s possible that some code could be eliminated because the chips had features that made them code not needed. But not nearly 686 MB worth.
