  • And then when they do update the game, and add 20 more dollars of new dlc at the same time, if you’re someone who likes mods, well congratulations. Your installation is ruined and you can’t go back to your saved game(s) without there being some level of headache involved. At this point a high seas version of stellaris would probably be a relief, since there’s no auto updates and all dlcs. But here I am, a sucker who bought like three-quarters of the dlc over the years and can’t even play it because I’ll just be sad my last playthrough got ended prematurely with a dlc release… Fuck Paradox and all their games.





  • The funny thing to me is, Dragon’s Dogma 1, in its original release on Xbox 360 and ps3, had microtransactions. You could buy rift crystals, lots of cosmetics, quests, etc. Then they released Dark Arisen as a complete collection sort of thing all dlc included, but I think you could still buy more for that too, mainly just the rift crystals.

    Besides that, it seems like every single Capcom game in the last 10 years or something has had mountains of paid dlc, like buying proud souls and blue orbs in the DMC games (consumable upgrade materials), upgrades in resident evil games, all sorts of stuff. Not that I’m defending Capcom’s actions, I don’t like what they do here, but I just wonder why it was Dragon’s Dogma 2 that broke the camel’s back instead of any of their other games.


  • Yep, that’s me. When I still actively used reddit, I felt this with every message, was always afraid I was off the mark, or didn’t read the room, or said something wrong or ignorant.

    I just turned off notifications and ignored my karma count to just post through it. Though, I usually said things that either never got any votes, or that people seemed to generally agree with. And I was relieved whenever I did notice the numbers going up instead of down, and occasionally worked up the courage to check responses and continue conversations, but usually nothing.

    This has really not changed since moving to Lemmy, and really just persists through every website. It sucks, I mostly just don’t comment.



  • Seafood is great, as long as you live near a coast. I think that gives a better chance that that “fishy” smell and taste is not overwhelming, because if that’s what you don’t like about it, I’m pretty sure it mostly shouldn’t be that way, I think it tends to be more mild the fresher they are. When in-land stores and restaurants import fish, it could be longer between catch and cooking than a coastal place.

    Or you just don’t like any seafood and nothing will change your mind, also valid.

    “I’m so angry at this genocide abroad that I want the other guy to start up domestic genocide here too”.

    I’m sorry but this whole “Trump might win again because of Biden’s Israel policy” thing is just insane to me. Trump would wipe out the Palestinians too, given the incentive, since they’re not white. He’d just kill the Israelis at the same time because they’re Jews.

    I think it’s disgusting that Biden isn’t pushing hard for a ceasefire and some serious diplomatic interventions instead of the bullshit he is, but there’s a 0% chance I vote for anyone beside the guy in the dem seat, Biden or otherwise, because I don’t want to get sent to the death camps by the final President for Life after a republican victory.
