Code Veronica is exactly the kind of game that needs to be remade. It has important lore for the whole series, but it suffers from being a bit too… of it’s era

Metroid Prime. I only played it for the first time this year when the remaster came out and the music blew me away.

I wonder if Japanese companies not liking modding is somehow a cultural thing. I remember littlekuriboh, the guy who does the Yu-Gi-Oh abridged, mentioning that the actual Japanese creators of the show wanted nothing to do with him and his content when he met them at a con. While non-japanese people see editing official content as form of investment and passion (even if it’s a joke), the japanese mindset is that you get what you get and messing with it is disrespectful.

I really do not understand why people are so pressed about that

My understanding of the situation is:

Ada: whoa I think I saw CSAM

Other Admin: No it’s legal so it will stay

Ada: While it is legal, I am uncomfortable having any content that could be mistaken for CSAM on my instance, goodbye

It’s not like you can’t make an account on plenty of other instances to interact with lemmynsfw if you really wanted to. The majority of the blahaj community here seem totally fine with her decision too, so it’s not like some crazy power trip

Yeah this is tough. I posted a comment in the original thread and had a really great interaction with someone explaining their thoughts but also just troll comments. It felt like a representation of their whole community: a mix of really passionate people who want to spread a message and left-wing 4chan-esque belligerent trolls. I think that ideally they can let us know (not through their words, rather their actions) whether their community values discussion over “dunking”. If the main point of their federation is only to find people to argue with, we should defederate. If they actually want to be involved in good faith interactions, we can individually block users or communities that push it too far.

Thank you for a well thought out and explained response

On the one hand I am not mad to have different ideologies here but they seem to go out of their way to pick fights which is pretty grating for what is supposed to be a memey, supportive community. Also whenever someone points out a one negative thing about a communist country they seem to counter it by saying a western country did the same/worse, which isn’t wrong but doesn’t address the point? If they could just accept a fault here or there it would go a long way in seeming less aggressive.

Ah my bad! I got confused with physical releases 😅

I have never played a Pikmin game (not including nintendoland) and so I’m thinking of starting with this one?? It looks cute and the remasters aren’t coming out until the fall. So far, the reviews are supporting my plan

The feathers are quite silky, but it was surprisingly hard underneath, at least on the wing.

One time, I was walking along the sidewalk next to some geese. They were so close that the intrusive thoughts won, and I tried to poke it. It hit me with its wing and left me with a nice bruise :(

Shrimp heaven wheeeeeen, Shrimp heaven nooooow!

I seem to be on the minority, but while we should be very skeptical of meta, I don’t think we should preemptively defederate. I think there is a place for a “commercial” fediverse product because there will always be people who just want to stick to known brands. It could work as a nice intermediary or introduction for people who can then join a non-commercial instance. The main concern imo is what kind of data they will (or can?) mine from users on other iterations. If they just focus on data mining from their own users, I vote to stay federated.

Now I feel like I’m gonna get air sprayed in my eye if I look at it too long

insert chaos and screaming

Man I love terminalmontage

First comment on Lemmy! I think that it’ll be hard to for people to understand instances at first but hopefully over time the value of chosing how you interact will be clear
