Farmville came out in '09, there hadn't really been decades of enshittification of gaming at that point. Their extensive use of invasive player metrics was also groundbreaking and basically the inspiration for everyone going forward, reaching well beyond the gaming spaces.

Dear lord you don't see that often. I mean, it's no surprise and it's definitely deserved as the game is a hot pile of garbage but even then. They didn't buy off a single reviewer?
I never particularly feel well rested, but it's a chicken and egg situation. Am I tired because I'm depressed or am I depressed because I'm tired?
Very relatable comment in general, but the above was the most relatable.
I'm already taking magnesium supplements and have been for a long time.
Mainly problem falling asleep, which I've struggled with my whole life. Can't turn my brain off, can't really fall asleep easily unmedicated. Has always taken forever to actually fall asleep. Lately I've been struggling with poor sleep quality too, with increasing severity over the past 7 years or so. Keep waking up multiple times at night and have trouble getting any deep sleep.
Not sleep apnea as far as I know, or narcolepsy. Probably just a mental health thing.
I'm AuDHD and have had pretty bad sleep issues my whole life. My doctors have told me it's common for people with these diagnoses.
I love seeing activity in this community, I really like this one even though I'm bad at contributing personally (though that's not just in this community but in general).
I share your frustrations but I don't know that I have any great recommendations. These days I'm mostly a patient gamer, so I can largely forgo reviews and simply play games that have an easily accessible consensus on their quality.
It may have been a small phase, but Farmville in particular made a huge impact on gaming and the internet as a whole. Though not for the better, obviously.
Yeah that's about what I expected. Fucking hell.
More people here than the Trump birthday parade!
I mean, you can individually adjust the rarity of every single room in the house eventually. Plus all the rerolls you get through dice and/or certain items or abilities. I know there is still some RNG, especially with spawning specific items, but that's pretty good no?
Another Brighton horror show for what is either the unluckiest team or a woeful medical department - or more likely both.
If this is a one-stop we're doomed. And I have a sinking feeling in my stomach that it will be.

I believe Gary Davis owned six J-200s over the years, and while he preferred the blonde finish this one is still a beauty.

On a certain level I understand what he means, but there is something very funny about how fittingly pretentious this sounds for Kojima. Imagine making a good game that people love? The horror!
