Why cannot i not filter search results by people i follow. I found this a super useful function on old twitter, to spot check people who i've decided i care about the opinion of on a topic. I don't so much care what 1000x randoms think on anything. i have a curated follow list for a reason

Re: my other post + this: absolutely hilarious. Marathon had a stealing artists art scandal, and now this has AI generated content. If I were feeling cynical about a genre I'm not a fan of I might be looking to draw some conclusions... 🤔😂

I'm curious to find reviews from Tarkov fans (or others) for both cus that might have the most details on the differentiators in that genre and help me understand what is and isn't working about each one for people who broadly do seem to enjoy the genre, cus I don't get it all all but am curious

So I'm not really one who gets or gels with extraction shooters to begin with. What I was curious about Arc, from my more remote position, was that it did seem to be landing well with some fan base during its early tests, and growing users, while Marathon was tanking. I was curious why.

this is most of what i felt about Escape From Tarkov when it was out, and it's stayed popular and in rotation with a few friends of mine and I just don't.
I really find the lose everything loop unrewarding, it's usually scared boring looting and then moment of surprise panic, and then back to menu

It doesn't matter how many fucking times you disable the AI, they will simply add new AI settings and turn them on by default. The only solution is to completely boycott any company which has any AI product anywhere in their portfolio. Yes, that's difficult. They've tried hard to make it difficult.

spoilers for like mission 1 of Ixion:

Suffice to say, your test jump blows up the moon and by the time you return it's rained down on earth obliterating all life on the planet 👉👈

There was an indie scifi citybuilder game a few years ago called Ixion where you are in charge of a prototype for a fleet to take humanity to the starts, that after the tutorial mission, has a peak satire cutscene of exactly this attitude. It's pretty perfect

lol interesting. i've only seen the 2000s era show and not the movie but I instantly recognize the character. had no idea a young christopher walken played him first. now i really want to go watch it

just in general bending my life towards spending as much of my time as possible around freaks and queers and weirdos has been the best thing ever

I finished 1000xRESIST.

I don't think I can put into words my feelings. I will be thinking about this game for a long time.

If you haven't played it go in as blind as possible!!

Don't even read the store page, I didn't and I'm so happy I got to experience it that way.

fanart of Melinoe from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (dark jeans, orange top), she has a big tattoo on her right arm, and is about to tie her hair with a hair band (is this how it's called in english ?) her eyes are closed, she has nice arm muscles and looks extremely lesbian

Like others, if bluesky is gonna keep banning trans voices and any other voices speaking up against the rise of fascism in the US and elsewhere, there's not a lot of use for this site for me.

To that end, subscribe and support content creators you still want to see creating content in the world.

It's not without its own drama and difficulties but if you can find and pick a server you gel with of like minded folks you might have a platform that won't be dolling out weekly bans over minor speech and opinions. And if you already have an audience, some might follow you over too :)

also mastodon exists. It's been said before it's not got as big an audience if you're trying to reach wide as a creator but it also has been observed it has a higher ratio of good potential audience / engagement than many other sites. It could pay off but your millage may vary?🤷‍♀️

Which is a little problematically proving the adage "you get what you pay for".

As a proponent of UBI, socialism, open source and etc, I don't want that to be a universal truth.

But also we're still living in a capitalist hellscape at the moment so do as you can and will while we try and improve

Hello everyone. You may know Gretchen Felker-Martin has once again been suspended from bc they do that whenever some chud complains. Her brand-new ongoing DC series was also cancelled for the same reason. It’s stupid fascist bullshit as usual. Gretchen’s work rules. Consider supporting her here:

Someone told him about the pool up there...

If the next dem candidate said "when elected I will specifically ban your family from work, school, public life, and possibly put them in jail. Oh also no medicine" would you still argue we should all vote for them, or find it kinda weird and suggest maybe another candidate should be picked?

Cameron slavering at the prospect of stripping the industries he helped to define and build for parts is a great object lesson in how hollow the rampant, endless pursuit of "more" and "better" is in the arts.

ALIENS cost less than 20 million to make, which adjusted for inflation is still less than 60 million. It still looks incredible. In a hundred years nobody will know what AVATAR is.

And not trying to be rude or anything just sharing the feeling. It sucks. I don't care. I prolly don't want to watch a 5 min video on it, even from you 😢😪🫩

Lol then don't give it and him coverage. What ever you come up with instead will almost for sure be more interesting! And... Um... Likewise more likely I'll watch? 😅

Ahaha "I can't vibe my way through debugging"

👀

Hell yeah

Bluesky moderation suspending trans people for wishing ill on the members of a hate group who are actively working to eradicate us shows us what a morally bankrupt crock of shit civility is and how it only serves to punish victims and protect victimizers. Bluesky should be ashamed of themselves.

Proposal seconded and accepted! Your results are awaited with anticipation!
