Yeah, but back then they had the good excuse of having created a very innovative RPG with a level of depth and simulation rarely seen before. The remake devs aren't building another engine from scratch or anything, like PB did. And it's not like they're intentionally recreating the janky UI of the original. The new UI is very different and mostly intended for controllers. The movement is also bad in almost the opposite way that Gothic 1's movement was "bad" (floaty vs stiff). Wouldn't have minded so much if they tried to do a remake that was as faithful as possible to the original - instead they're trying to modernize everything but aren't doing a very good job at it.

I'll give it another go, but my initial impressions of this demo unfortunately aren't great. Very poorly optimized, buggy, and janky UI. The movement is super floaty, with a ton of input delay and slow animations. While the German voiceacting is good, it's very noticable in many dialogues that it was translated from English. The environments are well crafted, but the overall graphical presentation has issues, in terms of lighting, reflections and especially the forced AA which causes tons of artifacts. The remade music, however, is wonderful. Really gives it that Gothic-feeling. I hope the devs can still turn this around, because there is definitely potential.

Sieht aus als hättest du Recht. Ist wohl auch einfach ein "dummer" Algorithmus basierend auf der Bildschirmbreite, wenn man die Seite schmal genug macht gibt es nur noch Sonstige. 😅

Nichts läge mir ferner als die Bild zu verteidigen, aber bei mir sind auch im mobilen Browser alle Parteien (über 4%) zu sehen. Sieht auch designmäßig ganz anders aus als bei OP. Ist vielleicht eine App statt Browser?

I imagine what would the world be like if streaming was available during Hitlers rise. Would people just be living in their bubble of “thanks for watching, hit like and subscribe, and if you use this code on simplisafe you’ll get 20 percent off!” winky face

Almost certainly. The majority of people just kept living their normal lives in Hitler's Germany as well. Until the war at least.

Only on a very surface level, as in "the far-right reached second place in an election again". But other than that, no, the situation in Germany is not very comparable to the late Weimar republic at all. Party militias aren't terrorizing the streets, there is no hyperinflation, we're not geopolitically isolated and our constitution is not as flawed and weak. Not to say the situation is rosy, but pretending we're literally at the inception of the fourth reich is not realistic or useful.

Also Friedrich Merz’s grandfather was a Nazi. He was a mayor of the only town that had a Workers Strike when the NSDAP came into power. And he violently beat that Strike town to the core, so that certainty gives a vibe to Friedrich.

I don't see how that matters, especially with how many people this applies to in Germany. My maternal grandfather may have been a nazi as well, at least he never talked about what he did during "that time". Doesn't make me one.

They have repeatedly made it clear that for them to even consider a coalition, the other parties would have to agree to stop all support for Ukraine and make peace with Russia with a full normalisation of relations. Sarah Wagenknecht won't budge on that, and that makes any coalition talks with them unfeasible for the other parties.

In my opinion, the AfD stands to gain far more from another ineffective, quarreling 3-party coalition than from a CDU government with a pushover SPD. That way, the greens will also have an opportunity to rebuild their strength in opposition for the next election. They won't have that while governing with the CDU. Believe me, it's far from my preferred coalition, but I think it would be the best with the hand we were dealt.

Possible maybe, but such a coalition would either involve the Greens, who are absolutely despised by parts of the Union to the point of Bavarian Minister-president Markus Söder declaring them their main enemy and ruling out any coalition, or the FDP, who sabotaged our previous government, caused its collapse and is thus hated by the SPD. The BSW is not a realistic coalition partner with its Pro-Russian stance. So any option for a 3-party coalition would likely result in a lot of conflict and chaos in my opinion. Chaos which the AfD can use to its benefit.

Hope it'll stay closer to ARD's exit poll, with FDP and BSW both under 5%. Grand coalition is the best we can reasonably get. It'll be way more stable than any 3-party coalition and I think we really need a stable government capable of getting shit done these next few years.

That website renders perfectly for me in Firefox for Android, including the bottom bar. I'm not sure but I think the issue is something else, as setting the bottom address bar moves it even further up on your device. Maybe something to report to Mozilla.
