Interesting, I adore my switch. I love my deck for its capabilities (e.g., modding) but I’ll usually buy a game on the switch if I have the option. For me, it’s much more comfortable to use for extended time whereas the deck is heavy enough that it’ll give me wrist pain for long sessions. The battery difference is underrated here too. It’s nice traveling or hell even on the couch to not have to worry much about battery on the switch.

Safety is my main concern and I actually received an ebike rebate from CO. I ultimately decided to not purchase one because my commute to work didn’t feel safe enough; I’ll stick with public transit. Denver’s not the bike-friendliest city but I can’t even imagine biking in most of the rest of the country’s cities.

I’ve seen LGBT lobby and Rainbow Mafia thrown around too. Anything to dehumanize and attempt to paint us as some faceless and unreasonable oppressors.

sim_,

I’d agree with your statement in isolation, but

Valve forever more have my support

sure sounds a lot like the definition of loyalty:

“a strong feeling of support or allegiance“

sim_,

Apparently this developer was brought on specifically for the 1.4 and 1.5 updates.

You’re omitting the part where OP is fine with the “trash dumping” in the streets of other locales. That’s what makes it NIMBY (as OP admits).

sim_,

Yikes dude, you’re blaming me for the reddit-esque toxicity.

I was using the other guy’s wording (“trash dumping”) specifically in quotes because I didn’t agree with that sentiment re: scooters. I’m not making any point about you, I’m talking about the use of the term NIMBYism. Dang.

Akin to portability, the Steam Deck’s sheer weight is a factor even when it doesn’t leave the house. The SD will sometimes give me strain in my hands or wrists while the switch feels like a feather in comparison. If a game is on both steam and the nintendo eshop, I usually will get it for the switch.

I love my SD a lot, but battery life and weight are influential in a handheld for me.

The Name of the Wind on a friend’s recommendation. It didn’t grab me at first but it’s starting to pick up. It’s nice to have an easy read for a change.

Agreed, seems like a weird comment. It’s easy to get incredibly mild Indian food here but plenty of places go up to inferno hot too if you want it.

sim_,

Upvotes ideally don’t equate to agreement though.

sim_,

This isn’t a unique opinion.

sim_,

I specifically moved from a cars-only city to a one with a more robust public transit system. I couldn’t be happier every time I take the bus!

sim_,

Does a map have to be large though? Theres value in a map being exactly as large as it needs to be to fulfill its creative vision.

sim_,

That’s me with Psych. The show is beyond uncomfortable humor.

sim_,

They’re not mutually exclusive. This means he can also be held liable for damages to people.

sim_,

Yes! I don’t get why. It’s usually sitting on a wireless charger so it’s not a battery issue.

sim_,

Interesting! I can already picture the min/max song playlists going around lol

sim_,

If anything, this is a call against complacency everywhere. Foolishness ignores man-made borders.

sim_,

Color me surprised you found yourself on the lemmyverse but don’t feel confident to install a mod. Not a dig! Just unexpected.

HC is coming out eventually though, not sure why it “obviously” isn’t?

sim_,

It’s telling how many people equate preheating oven to cooking frozen pizza.

sim_,

Or the driver that dislikes how scooter riders unpredictably decide to act like a vehicle one moment and a pedestrian the next.

And I say this as someone that mostly walks/uses public transit.

sim_,

I’m with you, the research is half the fun for me with complex games. But like others have said, BG3 is a great example of “choose your own” depth. You can absolutely stumble your way through the game and do just fine!

sim_,

That’s not so long ago for me, or in gaming history my friend lol.

I’d argue 20 years ago is a while ago in gaming, no matter how old either of us is. The appeal to authority due to age aside, I only mentioned 20 years ago to draw the comparison between the game being discussed in this thread and its predecessors.

there are games today that still do this

Exactly. Hell, I’m willing to bet there’s more “plug’n’play” games being made today just because of how wide the gaming industry is now versus the NES/Atari age, and that’s even ignoring the entire catalogue of these games over decades still existing for the playing.
