Tried it a while ago too.

Spawned in on that planet with a big city.

Awful performance with loads of characters either T-posing or sitting half a meter above their benches.

Pretty immersive needing to find, and then take, the metro to the star port to get your ship. Still awful performance.

I spawn in my ship. Go to my ship dock. Get in. Take a seat. Very cool.

Request takeoff. Takeoff granted.

Port door opens more slowly than continental drift. The instant it’s fully open it already begins to close.

Oh fuckshit! But at least it’s incredibly slow.

I take off and try to fly out. I get clipped into something… Invisible…? …Invisible door…? My ship spasms out wildly, sending the camera every which way. I explode. I die.

20 minutes of gameplay.

I uninstalled.

Steam… “broke” capitalism?

The emulator is also AI generated, for sure. Nobody was talking about the possibility of an emulator before the Switch 2 even gets exploited and decrypted.

It’s hardly been a month since the AI “hack” of the Switch 2 and suddenly we have a Switch 2 emu.

And I was told political violence isn’t right.

There’s some irony here that a dress-up game appeals to women. I mean, considering the political climate where certain elements try to deny there are inherent differences between male and female humans, and what sorts of activities they gravitate towards.

It’s like every week I’m hearing about a new data breach somewhere.

Yeah… Didn’t a Valve engineer say they’re looking to make it ARM?

Still has issues with Alchemist cards. Thankfully the cool guys coding Mesa managed to get the game rendering at all, but now there is weird dark shadow shimmering everywhere.

Saw it recently. Very fun dumb movie that knows it’s dumb.

Over the top cool fighting moves that do absolutely nothing to make the moves from the videogames more “realistic”. Catch phrases. The most… I dunno how to describe it… Hollywood “kung fu-y” plot since Kung Fury.

Yeah, I figured it’d be something like that.

The Linux driver support for Crescent Island has been coming along well

What about Alchemist? I got a A770 and I’m starting to feel left behind now that the A series is having issues that don’t exist in the B series. :(

The A770 is supposed to be still more power spec-wise on paper than what’s currently available for Battlemage…

The one thing that has constantly put me off from playing Outward is the weird janky combat. I have given it multiple serious attempts, but combat is just… so bad.

I hope the sequel improves this, while keeping the multiplayer options. Would be fun to jump into an open world RPG with a friend.

War of Killing: Dark Stuff 3

Because it’s terribly implemented.

Well, with a name like “Splatterina”…

Answering the headline:

That’s what I’ve been saying for months! Really, the only ones pushing so hard for AI in art are those who simply aren’t artists, or those stuck in a dead job like making corporate document logos.

The dating sim is essentially them looking at what the fandom is doing with their Pals (I suggest you don’t go to e621.net and absolutely don’t look for Palworld art there) and then creating some fanservice for the lols.

Never even heard of it.

Fluxer is still behind on Matrix with clients like Sable.

Sable used to be behind on Fluxer, but Sable made a lot of updates over the months, and Fluxer is more or less currently focusing entirely on the mobile app, while missing some rather important key features, like Federation and E2EE for private chats.

Fluxer is, however, far more easy to set up a self hosted server with. You cna get it done within an hour.

“I am legit probably going to close my servers and delete my account after all this,”

Oh by gods just fucking do it! All year I’ve had friends say shit like this, but then it turns out me and one friend of mine were the only ones with the balls to do it.

We set up a Matrix server for everyone, but then the excuses come rolling in, and they’re still going “I will close down my Discord account…! If it gets any worse…”

Edit: anyway, they’re not my friends anymore. I had hoped they were better people. They certainly talk like better people.
