  • Sorry to hear you're having a rough time!

    My week's been good. Finally started my four week vacation time. Feels so good, though we don't seem to be getting any of that heat that the rest of the world is suffering under. It's been somewhat chilly and absolutely pouring outside almost 24/7 for a while now.

    Wish it could be at least dry and somewhat warm. Still so nice to be off work though!

  • I've had similar feelings towards Lemmy as a whole lately too. Maybe I need to play a bit with my sorting settings but it's starting to feel like the vast majority of posts on all my subscribed communities are linked posts without any extra info added.

    Sure the titles themselves might be self explanatory but I'd expect the poster to actually also write something about the link they've posted. What did they think about it, what do they want to discuss about it.

    Is just feels.. hollow? When you see link after link with not even an effort towards discussion from the poster.

    It's starting to feel like I'm using an RSS reader.

    Not sure what too do about it though. Require more text to be written for each link post? That might just end up with some copy pasting I suppose but it might be worth a shot?

  • As always, thank you for your transparency! <3

  • Looked like ads at first. Gave me a slight cyberpunk vibe for some reason. At least big corpo dystopia.

  • Yeah I enjoyed it too. Not their most memorable movie andnot particularity original but it did its thing really well.

  • Really? Any idea how?

  • I do use that. I have a Series X but I play on PC as well. Some games aren't available on xbox and sometimes the TV might be occupied or I might want to squeeze in some quick gaming while already at my desk.

  • Well of course. There's always room for improvement though.

  • You can still have checkpoints and auto saves at intervals. That way you can reload if you save a second before dying or whatever.

  • Meh, annoying save systems won't stop me for buying an otherwise great game but it will somewhat bug me while playing.

  • Very much so! For the longest time I had a xerox of some gaming magazine with all the save codes for Lemmings!

  • Pretty much this. And if they're worried about that just make it so you can only save and quit?

  • True but that won't help with many modern games.

  • Ugh.. I wish more developers kept their customers engaged by making good games instead of creating some meta game to keep the hamster wheel running. That feels like a lot of MMO's..

  • Sounds promising!

    I loved the setting of Origins but got burnt out doing all the tedious bits they sprinkled all over the maps that didn't contribute to the story in ant way and was mostly the same over and over again.

    And yes, I know I could skip stuff but I wanted to experience the full hame too.. so.. yeah.

    It definitely could've been trimmed down a bit.

  • That would be awesome, I hope they can do it!

  • Wonder is Valve could implement that on windows as well?

  • I'd never play that on PC. It would work on xbox though since quick resume just let's ju pop out to the dashboard and resume whenever. It's not foolproof but I've only had to restart from a checkpoint a few times.

  • Save states would be nice. Just dump the game's data from ram to disk.

    That would probably take up a ton of space though. :)
