  • Bring back the sunsetted content, including past seasons, all the way back to the Red War campaign, and open it for Linux users... I wish lol

  • Valve removes free horror game from Steam after players discover it contains malware that steals your data

    Jump

  • With the amount of games published every day, they can't. They should, but really can't. Either they keep it this way, or review each and every game under the Sun to find malware before they get published.

  • I don't think they will... they didn't have a playable build of the game for a trial about the Red War story... and they said the next content update will be the last. Unless they get that build up and running for the final content update, there won't be anything back.

    But hey, at least the seasonal content is over, I guess. No more FOMO and grinding (for battlepasses and story missions) which was a pretty big issue I had when it started happening and that made me leave the game. Had they poured their efforts into quality expansions AND kept the old ones (and the original campaign), the game could have been so different... they could have expanded into D3 once D2 became too crowded with content (both content and size wise).

    But well, here we are... best we could hope for is that they learn from their mistakes for the next games (ehich I don't believe they will).

  • Same... I only played the intro to Renegades recently, and nothing more. I got closure with TFS, and the game was not fun anymore (for a long time hadn't been, since seasonal FOMO content started being poured in).

    Jump

  • Yep... for me it was closure. Couldn't let go out of nostalgia until it. The end of the Light and Darkness saga meant it was oficially over for me, and that anything that came after was just "loose ends that didn't mean the story wasn't over".

  • Eh, guess it's time to get into it. Stopped playing D2 consistently a long time ago, but never left go until now.

  • I never put so many hours into either, but I did like them. I basically grew up with Destiny 1 (even though I couldn't get Rise of Iron because I was old gen and didn't feel like getting it for PS4 once I could). I was there for the D2 beta, the Red War, Curse of Osiris, Warmind (both of which I liked despite what the community said)... once the sunsetting, the seasonal passes, limited time content started, I started getting further from the game, but I couldn't let go completely until TFS. For me, and many other players, it was closure. Even if I still kept an eye on news about Destiny and even played the intro to Renegades, it was officially over.

  • The lack of it is not a trend, but a consequence of a deliberate effort to keep it that way.

    I want to believe capacity for empathy and sympathy (both for good and bad) are inherent to us all (with some exceptions), even if clouded or even manipulated by the lack of critical thinking, which I do consider a skill one has to train (and not related to being smart/intelligent or dumb/stupid).

    I believe, if we all had enough critical thinking (I know I don't fully have it, even if it has gotten better with time), we would have been working together for each other instead of fighting and fucking over each other for the benefit of people in positions of power.

    So, hoping for an "empathy and critical thinking" trend isn't going to save us the same way hoping for a "cancer suddenly disappears" trend won't save someone with cancer. It is like this by design, not by coincidence, and we must do a deliberate effort to change it.

    As suggestions I know of or have heard of:

    • Bear in mind others might have gone through shit that made them the way they are right now (different culture, different conditions, trauma, indoctrination, etc.). To realize that no one is inherently evil, but the conditions we are given (our genes + our enviroment) shape us, has helped me stop hating others for their way of being, and instead wonder what led them to be like that. I never became more or less empathethic, I just changed my POV.

    • Read and write more to train the brain to take information, process it, and send it in or out, more effectively. And be more mindful of what you do write. (It also helps train the brain against degenerative diseases. Won't stop them, but might still slow them).

    • Check facts on more than one source to avoid biases, left-out info, or straight up lies or manipulation. Don't just read headlines and keep scrolling. Helps get a wider view of the world, know what goes on more precisely, and, like reading, trains the brain. (Also, bear in mind some articles are more about giving opinions or uncomplete information, than stating proven facts)

  • Eh, put it on the list of "shit pro-capitalists do or say", along with "point at capitalism consequence and say that'd be a consequence of communism" or "communism is when toothbrush shared"

  • Want to show the world, how little (or much) of your software is from the US? Try this.

    Jump

  • Around 47%. Used to be 87% (With the current options, that is)

  • What software are you using for CAD/modeling?

    Jump

  • FreeCAD, but basically because it was free and open source when I started learning (which wasn't long ago anyways)
