Been playing Melvor Idle, really great one that replicates old school runescape’s Skilling experience as an idle game. I also enjoy Impossible Dungeon quite a bit as well, top down auto dungeon crawler where you earn points to upgrade and customize a party for getting as far down a dungeon as you can and competing with other players in tournaments and dailies.

What’s the the unhelpful hostile attitude? Is it still 1996 where it’s cool to shit on people for not knowing everything about what they’re doing and call them “noobs”?

It’s hard to outrun that kind of human interaction anywhere that there are enough users and the anonymity of usernames, I do think it’s not as bad on the Fediverse still, I hope it stays that way

The hilarious thing about My house.wad is that if you go in without knowing anything about it there’s a relatively high chance you just complete the level normally and think “that’s it? weird that had so much hype”

Nothing about Lemmy would suggest people would like Epic anymore than any other place on the internet. Their exclusivity deals have the potential to upset anybody regardless of what website they post on, so while there’s absolutely a degree of hivemind hatred, it’s rooted in understandable reasons.

That being said, it’s disingenuous of that person to imply that Epic never gives any good reasons to use the platform, the biggest being the waves of free games they put on “sale” from time to time, though you could go down another rabbit hole of whether thats really something that would make gamers want to use the platform, or if it’s just a nice bonus people pop in to claim while still spending their money on Steam when it comes to actual purchases.

Complaining is pointless. Unless the mods make a new community about reddit discussion and a separate one for news, with both heavily moderated to focus the content, then you won’t get only what you want to see.

Like everybody else said, it’s a community about Reddit, not Reddit news, anything about Reddit goes, even if it’s sentimental bitching

I used to work at Publix, the average bagging employee is not gonna give a shit if you want to bag yourself, but they are trained to do it. The customer’s preference will be more important, especially at Publix where customer service is a point of pride. If you firmly and kindly say that you’re going to bag it yourself, then they’ll understand.

As a silver lining maybe it’s best people don’t associate him with what the site has become. He was a piece of its history, but he wasn’t trying to found what Reddit has become

Without more context, it seems as if your actual management is decent and understanding. I’d try and have an earnest conversation with the one you trust the most, and speak frankly about appreciating her work ethic, but that she can come off controlling and too particular to enjoy working with.

At the end of the day, if she’s the same rank as you her seniority does not magically make her a manager or make her advice solicited. It’s not her job to set the standards of how anybody should do anything, so you are not obligated to obey or listen to her do it. As a manager I would agree with that justification and I’d try to get her to take it down a notch.

It could cause her to resent you, though, if you’re the one she’s chosen to let all that controlling energy out on, but it’s just up to what you wanna do about it, in the end a pizza job is not an amazing, highly coveted and high paying position, if your management doesn’t help you handle it, or if getting them involved makes her worse and they don’t believe or help you, that’s just a sign they’re not that great themselves.

Was it like that when the game was fresh and you were getting into it in the beginning, or just after youd put the hours into it, and the novelty wore off?

It’s funnily enough part of why I continue to return to it. Competitive games as a service are too much, I dislike having to keep up with an ever inflating hero pool and a constantly changing Meta. I can just enjoy the gameplay polished to a sheen and the natural depth

For me, Fallout 3’s setting and atmosphere is more interesting to me. Plus nostalgia plays a much heavier aspect since it was my first Bethesda Fallout and the premise and mechanics of the world were more novel.

Gameplay wise 4 blows both of the others out of the water for me due to the addicting loop of collecting salvage and modifying equipment, along with the shooting finally becoming enjoyable in its own right.

Playing Heroes of the Storm vs AI, the Hitman WoA trilogy, Left 4 Dead 2, and Diablo 3 Hardcore. I can always chill on this stuff and know it’ll be a good time

Ooh, that’d have to be Monster Hunter for me. For a while it’s fun, then it becomes pain

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Slurm company dragged his mangled corpse from under the rubble and prevented him from escaping his partying even in death

It’s a little sad that it’s become the catchphrase of this whole situation. Of course Reddit wants you to just hate that one guy, he’s the fall guy. I would hope people don’t expect the company to do any different without him, they’ve proven time and time again that they’ve got one direction to go in regardless of who’s running it.

It’s just impossible to get people to say “fuck reddit” en masse because of the separation between Reddit the website we all upkept and created the content of, and Reddit the company making all of these decisions

Such a shame, I would’ve been more interested in this game, but the similarities to both Breath of the Wild and AC Odyssey meant the itches it scratched were already taken care of for me, and partially by the same publisher, too.

Go through the rest of the Deathbolt soundtrack for more of this style by Chris Christoudoulou, and then listen to the Risk of Rain 1 and 2 OSTs for a more prog rock style from him.

In terms of approachable jazzy ish OST, maybe Halo ODST’s OST, even though that’s way more downtempo. It’s hard to think of other music that hits exactly this level of chill, but energetic and inspired. Bluesy, but electronic.

In terms of an utterly standout OST that features some jazzy tracks you could check out Katana ZERO’s OST. there’s multiple composers there and so more genre variety but it’s an incredible soundtrack with a few jazzy pieces like Snow’s Theme or Rain on Brick or End of the Road, but there’s also more synthwave stuff on there that’s all just standout.

Awesome game. Awesome composer. Chris always makes bangin’ soundtracks

This time we won’t forget the blackjack, or the hookers.
