Juat finished . What a gorgeous film!

@askDNA is easily my favorite animated film if not film in general in a LONG time. Was really salty that Boy and the Heron won best animated film just because it's Miyazaki

The theming and metaphor of Suzume is powerful, the animation is beautiful, the acting is top notch (at least in the JP dub, haven't seen English), and the message hits deep.

Have watched it several times at this point. Just ... I cannot gush enough about that movie :emiliaugh:

Alea iacta est: I'm moving instance. No beef with urusai social, I really like this place and how it's run, I just want to move to an Italian instance. And that's why I'm posting this: I'm going to migrate the account so if some of you followers will find Italian toots in their timeline, you know why. I've some more packing to do before I move but it'll probably happen today. Ciao!

@prex Was a pleasure having you. Enjoy your new home! :zerotwoheartlove: :WaveToYou:

@prex @prex that's correct, it does not deactivate the account, just puts it into a "migrated" state that directs users to your new one. Note that it WILL eventually become "frozen" due to how we manage things but that can always be reversed :)

@prex whenever I get around to running the "stale accounts" script but no less than a month after you migrate

@negativeprimes Yikes. I'm not watching but went to see what the deal was and it's like....there are so many ways to do that comedy bit that don't involve SA :( Awful choice.

@tanoshimi omggggggg it is one of my absolute favorites!! I'm kinda jealous you get to experience it for the first time haha. So good that I switched to the novels for the content that hasn't been animated yet.

Don't miss the movie, or the two OVAs that JUST left USA theaters a few weeks ago.

Got hit with the poa.st-adjacent trolls this morning in response to my Helldivers 2 post. Not even a little bit surprised.

Have to say, it's nice when the servers worth suspending self-identify

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@d yeah when I checked out their accounts I noticed that all three servers federated with poa.st, which is pretty well on-brand for the content of the replies haha

@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

I'm honestly annoyed with PC gamers' response to Helldivers 2 requiring PSN accounts.

Refunding a game you've played for >200hrs because you have to make a new account? It's so childish.

If you're worried about a data breach or something, do what most security-conscious people do: use a unique username/password.

If you're in one of the few countries where PSN isn't an option you have a legit argument once they actually lock you out but the devs already say they're working on that problem.

If you're getting btfo because Sony wants your gameplay data, I have no sympathy.

I have plenty of issues with Sony. This ain't one of them

@yon Yeah I'm just talking about what you did in the game and worst case scenario things you discussed in chat. This is Sony, so we're talking about metrics they can monetize through marketing, or deciding what games to make and how to make them

@yon Yeah I'm just talking about what you did in the game and worst case scenario things you discussed in chat. This is Sony, so we're talking about metrics they can monetize through marketing, or deciding what games to make and how to make them

As someone who's seen behind that particular curtain, it's legitimately the least sensitive stuff you could imagine. "How many hours does the average player spend in X vs Y activities" or "can we identify signs that a player is going to stop playing the game soon".

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@yon Exactly. Annoying? Maybe. Justification to demand a refund after sinking 200+ hours into a game? Absolutely not.

People really out there thinking corps care about them individually when the reality is they just want metrics. They want to make data-driven decisions about how to make and sell games. That's it.

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@yon that's how I feel about it as well. There are so many things that need our outrage and being outraged at everything is tiring and makes people numb to it

As for too many accounts... Yeah, I run my own password management server and it's crazy how many there are in the list lol

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@lyrenhex @padraig Sure, that one makes sense. And in that scenario you would go to PSN for a refund since they're selling you a code and Steam will never, ever issue refunds for codes.

I still think it's petty and silly but at least then you've got a reasonable argument

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@d were there replies I can't see? Or did I already suspend their servers? XD

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@d oh wait I always forget I won't see replies if we don't already pick up those users for another reason. I have to load them from your server

neatchee,
@neatchee@urusai.social avatar

@yon there is definitely a fine line between fandom and addiction. At various times in my life I've been very attached to different games as part of my identity but never to the point that I felt rage towards the creators

Interestingly, Mastodon and many other fediverse apps can be used as SSO for other services, they just don't support creating accounts that way which is a shame. Pixelfed enabled sign-in via Mastodon account not long ago and I was hoping it would catch on but doesn't seem to be

Girls Band Cry is the fantasy of having somebody who cares when you have a trauma-based meltdown while out with them and will go after you to find out what's wrong instead of continuing the fun without you, oblivious to your distress
