World of Warcraft. I was on Windows XP with 512mb of RAM and who knows what graphics card but I was lagging so bad when WotLK came out.
With all the people standing at the entrance to Naxx I had to basically aim myself for the portal and lag my way in without being able to see where my character was walking due to the lag.
It depends on how it's enforced.
Where I live they ended cash bail for any non-felony offense and it's led to repeat offenders being picked up, released and they'd offend again, where they get picked up and then released again.
It's a complex issue, many of these people need mental health help, and putting them in jail isn't the solution, but allowing them to continue to walk free when they're known re-offenders isn't helping either.
It's utterly bizzare. Spend 10 minutes browsing YouTube shorts and you'll see an absolute torrent of transphobia, with many users outright calling for violence and murder, and YouTube does nothing.
If someone asked me what games I thought would get remastered next I never would've guessed Tomba.
I played on PS and I don't think I've seen anyone really mention it since then.
I recently played an indie game called Iron Danger that allowed you to rewind time.
It was a party based real-time-with-pause tactical RPG. So you'd pause, command your 2 party members to use their skills and then rewind if things didn't go exactly right.
It led to combat being a really interesting puzzle where you're playing with the timing of skills to block a hit at the right moment, get a knockdown off before an enemy hits you, or trying to position your characters just right.
It's a nice twist on the typical tactical RPG combat that sort of merges turn based and RTWP combat. Timing matters, where normally in a RTWP combat you wouldn't have the ability to fine tune your actions, and in turn based timing doesn't matter at all.
Based on the language where they say there is something coming in the future, I would bet it's that system.
They want to invalidate all existing awards so they cannot be used to give people money under the new system and likely also remove the premium feature of getting awards for free.
People who want to reward content creators will pay for premium and awards instead of just premium now.
Ahh, the child of Bhaal has awoken. It is time for more experiments.
Haha, was just about to submit one and checked to see if anyone else had.
Might as well open a Roth IRA and start contributing to an index fund like VTI or VOO.
Long term stable growth and tax beneficial. The earlier you start saving for retirement the better, compound growth is very powerful.
I think a lot of gamers just don't care enough too. I know so many people that buy a game on release, play it for a few hours, and then drop it. Even AAA titles that are actually good.
Steam achievements kinda confirm that as well, there is a fair bit of drop-off on even the most popular games.
Even with the wariness of Meta's entrance into the fediverse, Threads gives it legitimacy and spreads awareness. So many people on reddit were saying the fediverse was confusing and that it wouldn't catch on or appeal to the average user. Threads can change that perception, even if the various lemmy instances don't federate with Threads, people will be aware of the existence of other servers, of the technology, and be more willing to branch out.
It'll be nice to at least track playtimes and have that data in 1 location.
