Especially the Israeli (transported to another world) genre relies heavily on that to quickly explain what you can expect.

Are Israeli anime like isekai, but with Jewish undertones and/or mythology?

Can we fix this comment for the whole lemmy instance to read?

All it takes for evil to win is for good people to do nothing

It is made by scientists. The problem is that said scientists are paid by investors mostly, or by grants that come from investors.

If everyone had ACs and did this we could revert global warming!

The main difference I think has to do with how this is done. Marketing is much more aggressive. Think like Google ads where products appear in unrelated queries. Much more sensationalism and less information. While the article says gamers want to read actual reviews, comment on the game while being developed, etc.

Yup

They could spinoff to rare metals like gold or silver, or even gemstones like sapphire or ruby. 👀

Aren’t we already in a kind of dark age?

People denying science, people scared of diseases and vaccination, people using anything AI or blockchain as if it were magic, people defending power-hungry, all-promising dictators, people divided over and calling the other side barbaric. And of course, wars based on religion.

Seems to me we’re already in the dark.

I always remember cartman about pre-orders. All you get is a big dick on your mouth

I’ll take the obvious bait here. The issue is that paying for a full game should give you a full game. For now the MTXs are like you said, for small items and not game changing. For now.

If the gaming community accepts this, who knows what the next step will be? Maybe they’ll be kept small, but maybe they won’t.

Remember this is the the same industry selling horse armor, selling over 2k dollars of dlc in the Sims 4, shipping unfinished games after millionaire pre-orders, and selling dlc that fix day one problems that shouldn’t even be there. And they do this because the community never questioned when they were small enough problems.

Well. They changed from idiotic to completely deranged. So no

In the middle of the picture and I couldn’t find it lol

Actually most third world countries don’t have guns as rights. And their laws on abortion vary wildly.

So the US would be worse than third world.

Got it

My head Canon is that that was the actual ending he planned and because it flopped so hard the last books will never happen

Exactly! Much easier just making something as “evil” than actually solving the issues around.

Children shouldn’t be using their cells that much, but this is not solved by restricting access to it. It is solved by making communities and spaces child-safe and interesting for them.

Wait. D4 is already winding down? Didn’t it launch last year?

Wow! Lemmy is now blurring passwords? It only shows asterisks to me!

No one said they didn’t want these kind of projects. They just didn’t want to have to pay for them.
