But that’s what fans are for

What?

People talked about it a ton when it was new.

I agree with you completely. I just wasn’t about to write an essay on potential contributing factors that can help one succeed, plus luck. I just wanted to say that these days, there are a lot of indie smash hits out there that succeed in part because people saw a whole lot of love in them, when a lot of the more cynical corporate creators would never have made such things in such ways. Hell, it’s not just indies. It’s why many Nintendo games are so beloved, even “forgotten” ones like Earthbound. ^^

I know that stupid rich CEOs and shareholders don’t understand this, but… “heart”. You make a game with heart, and it’s immediately apparent to the audience. You can try to break down what it is that gives it away, but that’s unnecessary.

If a work of art has heart, it will probably sell well. As long as people can clearly see what it is, and as long as it doesn’t do anything alienating.

This was one of the best laughs I’ve had in a bit, thank you

That is not what “the Tetris Effect” means. :P

God I’m so glad I’m not the only one. I thought everyone likes embarrassment humor and maybe I was getting a little cynical about “how bad taste is getting” or something. So good to know that others call it “cringe” (in one way, not in the other) and can’t watch it either.

Just finished it. Thank you!

That’s because they’re fake.

Haha xD

I keep forgetting what a “tankie” is, even though it’s said a lot on Lemmy.

I remember I tried Lemmy like two years ago or something. I got booted from communities for not praising everything China does. I think it was Lemmy.ml? I could be wrong.

The moment you done effed up while everyone’s watching.

But my Italian ain’t what it’s never been.

xD

Yes, technically, just like “everything is subjective”. But only ignorant people remove all context like that.

I don’t use the All feed at all. In fact, this isn’t really a solution for me. “All” has too much random crap to weed through.

What would you rather have though

Most of these clearly have no proper etymology and root/suffix/prefix structure, and therefore are clearly made up.

Wikipedia is written by humans, a.k.a. non-objective people, which is why they call it “duodecimal counting” instead of “dozenal counting” and used to have Talk wars on that page about it. The irrational side won.

If a game has classes like I said before, then it’s a class-playing game, a.k.a. RPG. Something can be a roguelike but not an RPG. Also “roguelike” is a pretty dumb name for a genre and itself causes a lot of problems, but I digress.
