11·7 days agoThis is me in any game too. If the game offers you a bunch of alternatives but makes it impossible/insufferable to play outside the meta, then the game is not worth my time. I should play a game the way I want, not the way the developer decides to force even though they gave me other alternatives.

14·7 days agoBeen hearing this term for a long while. It’s specially prevalent in games where there’s a strong competitive scene or in games where you can practice min-maxxing. You won’t use the term (normally) in a game like The Sims or any other game where there is no “goal” to achieve; but if there is a goal (even just a boss fight) and there are multiple alternatives to tackle it, you will hear the term eventually.

There are streets here where a Smart, a bloody Smart, barely passes through.

8·12 days agoLol no. And probably, will never be. In fact, I’d download it ASAP because given their history of assholery when it comes to game preservation, I wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to sue these guys for some bullshit.

26·17 days agoNo, no. You got it wrong. The key is what do they consider “people”.
“Are you brown or are you a person?” Is how they work.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Bad people and bullies usually have justified reasons for why they are doing bad things, so instead of blaming them, maybe sympathize with them.
271·1 month agoJust because you had a shitty life doesn’t mean you can make other people’s lives miserable.
I was bullied during most of my childhood and highschool years. Are you telling me that I should sympathise with my bullies because they had a rough time? I had an awful time thanks to them and I didn’t go making other people’s lives shitty. And I didn’t have their sympathy either.
For my bullies I don’t have sympathy. I don’t have hate either, because they don’t deserve anything from me.

1·1 month agoSee? But you didn’t address anything because, by your own admission, you didn’t read my comment. So you don’t even know what you are criticizing. You are just butthurt because someone dared to defy “your freedom”.
Just admit that you don’t want responsibilities for your words. That’s it, that’s all you are saying. And that is a very MAGA thing.

1·1 month agoYou are trying to debate something you haven’t read in the first place. And you ask me to “respect logic”. I mean… try respecting logic?
You just seem offended by something you simply refuse to read, which is very much in line with what MAGAs do. As I said, you are not ready to discuss the limits to free speech and the concept of “consequences to what you say”.

1·1 month agoYou keep sounding like a maga snowflake that doesn’t like when their words bring them consequences. It’s fine tho, I understand that you are not equipped to understand the nuances of freedom of speech and its limitations.

You’re not a critic, you just sound awfully like a maga snowflake yelling “but muh freedom!”.

1·1 month agoNot butthurt at all. I just accepted that I’m not discussing with someone capable of reading a comment beyond the first sentence of it. It’s fine tho, I’m not gonna explain it again just because you refuse to read the first comment.

I think that’s only part of it. Take a game like any monster catching one. There is going to be a meta, a “tier list” that tells you that these monsters are the best of the best. And that’s fine. But the problem is when the game is poorly balanced so if you don’t play the meta, you can’t complete the game. If I can’t beat the game using what I like, the game is just telling me that I shouldn’t play it.
