  • Whats the worst game mechanic?

    Jump

  • Carry weight is gameplay balancing. Without it on those games you'd just hoard a million healing items or something.

  • Whats the worst game mechanic?

    Jump

  • The borderland series is the worst for this. Boss fights just mean you have to continuously shoot the enemy for 10-15 mins.

  • From the outside looking in

  • Hey that's not all they do!

    About once a month on a Saturday afternoon they spend an hour or two holding up protest signs before going home for a self-congratulatory wank.

  • Cardiff to introduce higher parking charges for SUVs

    Jump

  • Yes but I'd say only for new cars, seems a bit unfair to people who bought their cars a couple of years before the charge is introduced. Do they really want to pressure those people to go and buy another car? (more environmentally damaging than keeping what they have).

  • Sheffield Wednesday file for administration with 12-point deduction imminent

  • "Oh, you're having financial trouble? Here's a punishment to make things worse for you!"

  • ‘Enforced veganism’: Ofcom lets GB News flout accuracy rules, say climate campaigners

    Jump

  • That might be the catalyst but it's foreign adversaries that have been investing a lot of resources into polarising us that are the real cause of this.

  • 0:53 ICE and CBP agents are patrolling in unmarked civilian cars; kidnapping and disappearing people for filming in Chicago

    Jump

  • Last I heard the number of people who have simply vanished after these kidnappings was well over 10,000. Were they all deported? Nobody knows.

  • Built a standard table for a desk but when I put my monitors on it, it becomes top heavy and subject to falling over

    Jump

  • Can you anchor it to the wall?

  • Anyone else not watch movies or TV shows?

    Jump

  • There are a fair few games out there with world building that is on par or even exceeds most films and novels. With films and TV shows you only get a limited time to experience the world in which they reside and so many details about the world or context don't make the cut. With novels you get more capacity for background information but often fewer descriptions of the smaller things in the world. With games you get the best of both where everything down to the smaller details are displayed visually but with a runtime that can sometimes go into hundreds of hours allowing for plenty of time for backstory/lore.

    It's been a fucking meme for the last decade at this point but the Witcher 3 is one of the more memorable ones. I've played the game, read the books and watched the Netflix series, and the game is the best of the three.

    Another example is Red Dead Redemption 2. It's set in the wild west so you get all the iconic visuals and action of the best cowboy movies but the amount of detail included also beats many novels. The story of the game goes into a level of gritty detail and complexity that could easily be a book, but you can also bunk off and go hunting, fishing and camping and just live in the world in a way that you can't experience in any other medium aside from actually being in 1800's America yourself.

    Hell, if you just wanted a video game version of a Tarantino film then GTA 5 (and upcoming GTA 6)has you covered.

  • Yearning for a dictatorship is generally considered an extreme opinion.

  • We have silicone ones but I don't like them as they retain the taste of washing up liquid on them

  • Why supermarket prices really became sky high in the UK

    Jump

  • Probably been sat in storage too long. Apples are sold all year round but they are only harvested once per year. And don't think that in season you'll be getting fresh ones, they'll be straight into storage while you eat the year old stock.

  • Good point

    Jump

  • Isn't it possible that they were stolen to order and someone has them intact?

  • AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright

  • He's right. 123 years is old-ish but not historic.

  • History is fun - but remember to be critical of the past

    Jump

  • There is a third type that is extremely common here in the UK:

    "I detest my country and everything about it past present and future, I gleefully wait for it's destruction and none of us deserve any happiness because some people who may or may not have been my ancestors were bad 200 years ago"

  • Mattresses on the floor go mouldy underneath. The main point of a bed frame is air flow, the secondary point of them is to make you not look like a slob.

  • Ex PlayStation exec says Sony can't keep "increasing the graphics power" with new consoles after tech plateau, but PS5 has already "made almost every game a better game"

    Jump

  • I have a PC and PS5. I like my PS5 because I know when I buy a game for it, it's going to work. On the other hand with my PC I have to triple check the specs and fiddle around with the graphics settings, and the only way I can have confidence that it will play any game is if I spend ~£1000 upgrading it. Or just get the game on the playstation.
