If your option is tell the truth or be a “bummer” then your only being an ass by lying to save others from reality.
Shit sucks but it never gets better if we hide reality away and never speak of it.
It only takes one right person to be bummed out to start a cascade effect that might create meaningful change. Never murder hope before it has a chance to even be born. Even if that means being a “bummer”.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss RunbacksEnglish5·2 days agoAnd the game is fundamentally not the same with some of those accessibility features enabled. Good on the devs for targeting a wider audience but fundamentally they have different game play experiences.
Not every designer wants to have multiple experiences in their game. That should be entirely up to the designer and demanding them add entirely new experiences is unreasonable.
Color blindness support, rebindable controls, subtitles, on screen audio visual cues. There’s plenty of things that can help the disabled that don’t change fundamental aspects of the game. If a developer adds these but doesn’t want to compromise the intended gameplay as they see it then they shouldn’t have to.
End of the day. It’s art that is being sold to be consumed. If you don’t like the art, then it’s not for you.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss RunbacksEnglish5·2 days agoDisability, accessibility and gameplay accessibility are two different things and should be treated as such. There is also a very hard line between what is possible to help someone with a disability. Enjoy a medium that requires certain minimal physical traits.
The color blindness deafness rebindable controls as many things that can help the disabled and these should be expected whenever possible. Hell a lot of these are built directly into your operating system and don’t require any effort from a game developer. They just need to make sure not to get in the way of already existing tools.
But gameplay accessibility is an entirely different beast and even very minimal. Gameplay accessibility can create an entirely new gameplay experience to the point where it’s not the same game. If the developer wants to add those, it should be up to the developer and what they’re targeting, both as an audience and as an artist.
We should always demand disability accessibility. We should never demand gameplay accessibility.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Hollow Knight: Silksong Sparks Debate About Difficulty and Boss RunbacksEnglish83·2 days agoA single player game shouldn’t be accessible to all. It should be accessible to everyone the creator intends it to be accessible to.
Devaluing and demanding an artist or team of artists compromise their vision and intent is flat out a shit take. You have to be a massive self centered asshole to think it’s even remotely acceptable.
Nintendo expects Mario games to be played by everyone, thus it’s reasonable to expect accessibility features and difficulty controls. To allow for the widest range of players.
A Mario game with out either implicit or explicit difficulty controls would be a fair thing to criticize when Nintendo’s clearly stated goal is to reach the boardest audiences and be a game for the whole family.
But a game made by say kojima IS NOT trying to reach the boardest audience. Thus, expecting any amount of control over the experience is just being an asshole on the part of the player. The game is designed for himself first and foremost. He’s making something he wants to make. Tell a story he wants to tell. If the player enjoys it then all the better.
Games are after all first and foremost art. Art can be a product or can be a passion. A product even if art is reasonable to expect it to be made for the consumer first and cater to them But never should any reasonable person. Assume a passion should bend the knee.
Comes up a literal metric ass load (8 bushels) when your talking about travel in the USA.

As the cheap easy source of functionally infinite and free material is now at their beck and call.
In reality. This will just make it easier for them to cause more harm to real children.
This reality fucking sucks donkey nuts. Can we just blow it up and start over.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•[Request] Gaming mouse suggestionsEnglish1·2 days agoMost scroll wheels go to shit after a couple years to be fair. It’s like the single most common failure point for every mouse ever.
Finding a mouse that has a scroll wheel that lasts longer than 3 years with out quirks is a rarity. That or you don’t use your scroll wheel very much.
Yeah man… Yeah … Really brings a new definition to the ISS
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•PSA: If your controller rumble isn't working in Silksong, then try forcing Proton in the game's properties on SteamEnglish1·2 days agoNative ports almost always have problems. It’s a big reason there’s such a large group that just say to use proton instead of wasting time on a native port.
Which both sucks cause having a good native port is rad. But also honestly the most realistic way to avoid these kinds of problems.
Not to mention that the native version is likely to be unplayable or perform much worse then it does now in a few short years because of changes to dependencies. Or quirks between distros.
Linux is a nightmare for native gaming long term.

If you ever want to share art just look to were the furries flea too. You won’t ever find a group more determined to share their art then them.
You really should learn basic English my guy.
The suit is from goodwill and the watch is fake gold knock off that he got for 30 bucks from a dude named jimbob who hangs out by the pier.
The corner office is real tho. It’s very nice.
That’s not even the same fucking person.
Lol, man relax and let the big crawl out of your butt.
There shouldn’t be. The entire fucking point of a religion is to deify and be a follower. To obey and follow the rules and tenants of the word of the leader or God in which you worship.
If you don’t know your scripture, then you arnt part of the religion. Full fucking stop.
Your an idiot at best. At worse your literally being a cultist. To claim to be a member of a group with out knowing the very thing you worship or the teaching.
That’s literally by definition a false member, a cultist.
Holytimes@sh.itjust.worksto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Hollow Knight: Silksong sinks to 'Mixed' Steam review status among Chinese gamers over its bafflingly bad translation, with Team Cherry promising to improve itEnglish1·2 days agoThe dislike for the translation appears to be more a bunch of idiot not liking wuxia style speech.
This would be like English speakers review bombing silksong over it’s Shakespearean style of speech.
The translation is fine and accurate to the source.
Calling it a bad translation is just objectively not true. At worse you could make an argument that it’s too accurate and over steps instead of taking into consideration the gap between wuxia and modern Chinese versus Shakespearean and modern English

Every parent of a gay or bisexual child iv ever talked to about this topic has had the same thought process.
If not for the risk of early grandkid then they wouldn’t really care.
Teenagers are horny they going to do what animals do. But they arnt smart enough generally to do it safely in most cases.

Who the ACTUAL fuck pays attention to the launcher they are using. They find one they like and then unless something breaks they forget they are even using one.
Two doors down on the left. Be careful tho if you go to the third door unspeakable horrors lay there.
The first door on the left is the bathroom btw.
