I think you’re taking the meaning too far. It’s not that someone in a bad position is not allowed to feel bad. Rather, you have to consider the context in each case. A friend could be having a hard time, and even if your situation is technically worse, that doesn’t invalidate theirs. Because if you are willing to invalidate your friend’s difficulties, by that same token you could say your own are invalidated by those in an even worse position than yours.

Essentially I’m saying that everyone’s life is different and their worries are valid. Yes, perhaps it can be a touch tone-deaf for one person in a privileged position to complain about something relatively trivial. But for someone to assert that their situation is infinitely more important, and that their friend shouldn’t be allowed to complain about their own experiences… it reeks of envy and narcissism.

I thought both games were excellent, but yes there was definitely something about BOTW that set it apart. In addition to what you’ve said, I think it’s partially that BOTW was such a unique experience the first time through - little things like the stamina meter for climbing, the cooking to help you craft items that warm you up etc. Discovering these features and setting off in whichever direction you fancied was a joy. TOTK didn’t have this same joy, as I already knew about these mechanics. And it felt like there was much more of a push to get the player to go in a specific direction, rather than leaving the exploration up to them.

I reckon they probably did the best job they could’ve with a sequel, but it was never going to be possible to live up to BOTW.

Good dopamine I guess, and I’ve found the collection side of things to be fun. But I could never understand why someone would spend £18.49 (!!) to get a ‘rare’ card that doesn’t really exist. I’d never spend any money on this game.

Damn that was excellent, great points from Cowboy.

Perfectly sums up this whole, sad phenomenon of people getting angry about nothing.

It’s so weird. Because it has a black protagonist and isn’t ‘historically accurate’? In a game series in which a fictional secret society of assassins controls the world?

I’ve seen some hate on Lemmy too. Is there a legit reason to hate Ubisoft or is it mostly just terminally online losers scared of ‘wokeness’?

I’m out of the loop here - why is this game getting so much hate? Reviews seem ok?

Glad to see this game mentioned! I played it last year and it was pure fun throughout. Super charming

Thanks for the write up! I haven’t played this one before, but clearly it’s well regarded so I’ll give it a go :)

Nice, thanks! I’ll try that out :)

Oh I’m dumb, I was thinking you meant the 3rd USB along lmao.

The extension cable you mentioned, is that just a male to female USB?

Huh, I wonder if this is why I’ve been having issues getting a wireless mouse with a 2.4 dongle to work… It did work at one point and then suddenly stopped, so I’ve been having to use the Bluetooth mode. I have the same dock - which one is USB 3?

Wait what? How?

Thanks for responding to this :)

The suggestions from @Berin@discuss.tchncs.de and @woelkchen@lemmy.world in this thread get my vote!

I think one the freepik icons that @Berin@discuss.tchncs.de suggested would be a good idea. They are all fairly generic and most aren’t clearly any one particular controller.

That looks great to me! Would get my vote if the community owner is happy @nanoUFO@sh.itjust.works

Bit of an weird take to be honest. Just because the new Switch is a fairly straightforward iteration doesn’t mean Nintendo won’t innovate again in the future.

Not sure if it counts as a patient game, but I’ve just started Persona 3 Reload (the original game came out in 2006 and I never played it, so maybe that’s acceptable?)

I love how stylish everything is - the music, UI and animations. So pretty. The story has quite a different vibe from the other persona games I’ve played too.

I am the GOLDEN GOD

How are you running Minecraft? I’d recommend Prism launcher, and then installing the Controllable mod. It’s excellent - updates the UI and controls to match the console versions of Minecraft.

Oh it’s great! The devs have added a few new things (slightly different boss battles, the addition of side missions) but all of this adds to the experience. I played through the original the other year and it holds up well, but the remake certainly felt like the definitive experience. So personally I’d go for that if you’re new to the series.

I also played DS2 a while back, and that felt much more polished/higher budget than the original. After you’ve played the remake of 1, definitely give the second one a go.
