Preach, comrade!

Plus, it would likely lead to violence, which many are not a fan of, I’d prefer not, myself.

You’re ignoring the inherent violence that’s already prevalent in the current trajectory things are heading towards.

Earth will survive – it’ll be different, but it will carry on.

I hate how glib some people are handling an extinction of not only human life. Countless species, ecosystems and individual animals will die.

But yes, life will continue. You’re technically correct. The best kind of correct. /s

Shut up, ecofascist.

I think it was actually, because the game stuttered when compiling shaders on PC. Valve then precompiled all the shaders for the steam deck and delivered those via the steam client.

Look how hard it is to make folks switch from discord to matrix. All that fracturisation is exhausting.

When shitposting on social media isn’t enough, so you need to shitpost on CTAN.

Why is it always these goddamn pods that are supposed to improve public transit? What’s wrong with trains?

Line mut go up, tho!

But I’d have to use Windows with those. 🤢

Cool thing that I’d love to try out… But I still don’t see any practical use… at least for myself.

So if lore is not explicitly stated, it is bad, becapse of guess work, unless it’s in TES, because then it sparks “fan theories”.

Look: Lore is really a “quality over quantity” kind of deal. I know that there are entire books in Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim. But just because there’s a lot of it doesn’t make it great. And just because some author in Morrowind took some ketamine back in 2000, doesn’t absolve the later TES games, where the whole world boils down to “the player is the most important being in the world”.

TES games are basically a solipsism simulator, whereas DS drips with atmosphere and themes of decay, hope and even teaches you a bit of zen.

The fact that it’s so vague but still makes people be so invested in the world speaks to the strength of the writing.

Yes, you will have nuggets of genius in TES games. But that’s because

A) Morrowind’s writing was really weird and actually good and they still reference that a lot B) they throw everything at the wall and then you’re bound to have something good if you have some talent employed.

You still have to wade through so much trite, boilerplate fantasy shit, though.

Yeah… but storyline and setting is what made Fallout so great.

Agree to disagree.

The story, the world and the roleplaying are comparable and Fallout 3 is way worse in that regard. New Vegas reached the old heights again.

Fallout 3 was garbage compared to Fallout 1 and 2

Dark Souls lore has actual themes deeper than “we need an excuse for the player’s power fantasy”.

Lol “button mashing” will kill you instantly in Dark Souls

TES ain’t got shit on Dark Souls in terms of story… Or lore, at least.
