Ok, thanks for the info. I started freaking out :D

What I love about the Zelda games is that they try out something new with each title. So who knows, maybe they’ll eventually do a Zelda that’s geared more to fans of the older titles.
I agree with all you said about Zelda BOTW. As a Zelda game I was really disappointed. But if you set aside the Zelda part it was actually a pretty fun game for me. I really enjoyed the exploration and it was the best open world game I played so far. But too easy forgettable dungeons and too easy bosses and darn weapons breaking really bothered me so I’m not even interested in the TOTK. I’ll wait for the next Zelda game and keep my fingers crossed.
Why not? There’s nothing wrong with fun. You don’t have to exclusively read “high” literature. We’ve got to unwind sometimes, right?
Lets say you have a refined taste 😉 sometimes what’s most highly rated is boring stuff intended for the mass audience. For example, I stopped watching USA movies and very rarely see a USA series because I don’t enjoy it at all. It has great reviews, but doesn’t interest me, and that’s ok. I’d say that people who like it have a bad taste, and they would say I have a bad taste. Lets just say we have different interests 😅
Exactly! Tastes differ. But that makes me vary of recommendations and I end up second guessing every 5 star review. Who knows how many good books I passed up 😅
Good to know, thanks. Maybe we should check in in about 10 years when she gets more writing experience. Or maybe it’s just not our cup of tea.
What do you think about Jemisin? I’ve read the first two books of her Broken Earth trilogy, and I quit half through the third book. For me, the first one was great, second was meh and third one so bad I wasn’t even interested in how it ends. I think she did a very good job in the beginning with setting up the world and its mysteries, but revealed too much too fast, so when we came to the third book there was almost nothing of interest left.
I didn’t expect to see “A Swim in a Pond in the Rain” here. I’m currently reading it and I’m really enjoy all those Russian short stories, but also the commentary on those stories is also pretty great. As someone who doesn’t have a literary background it’s nice to see how it’s done.
Ok, I’d say it’s biggest selling point is not being owned by Google - the company with the business model of violating privacy. But if you don’t care about that, think about how short is the battery life on your phone. It doesn’t have to be that way. That’s because of Googles and Facebooks of the world that convert your money that you spend on charging your phone to make money on the data they collect.
Great, thanks for the info. I’ll give it a go at some point :)
Wow, it never occurred to me to try that approach. I always focus first on the food and mostly don’t even get to building tools, and I find the game really fun and challenging. It’s great that you can take so different approaches and still enjoy the game. I’ll surely try it out your way, thanks.
Ravenswatch is a really fun roguelike that’s great solo, but the multiplayer is also really fun. Every character gives you a totally unique gameplay so it doesn’t get boring with time. I’m really excited to see what the game will look like when it’s released, but for an early access game it’s great and doesn’t suffer from lack of content because it’s challenging and has a nice variety of enemies so if somebody is on the fence about it, I recommend trying it out.
How does it compare with the original Forest? I liked that game, but after you explore all of the caves there’s not much to do. Building is fun, but I think some stronger enemies were needed.
I really like that you have to take into account what your villagers like and build the city around their needs. It makes choosing the type of buildings exciting every run. And then making sure that the production is fast enough so that the needs are satisfied.
I didn’t play the games you mention so I don’t know what do you enjoy about them, but for me this game was a fantastic surprise. It somehow gives me the old Warcraft III vibe, without the “building an army” part that I didn’t enjoy and was never good at.
I’m not a security expert so I can’t say if your right on that point, but somehow I trust the Mozilla foundation much more than Google. Isn’t the whole point of their browser to allow them to spy on you?
So he’s the guy. Ok, I’m interested in what he has to say. Before we had the word it was just an uneasy feeling that everything keeps getting worse. Now it’s much easier to think about the unstoppable enshittification march big companies insist on.
The EU regulators have many flaws but news like this gives me some hope
