TF is crate ent. on about? They’ve not even made an RTS, let alone one with love and care out into it? They’ve got an RPG* (grim dawn) and a city builder (farthest frontier) on steam. Neither come anywhere close to what an RTS is supposed to be, and like others have said, Dune (don’t know the specific name), C&C, warcraft and StarCraft we’re all impressive mainstream games, all RTS.

Haven’t read the post, but what if kind of detached world do they live in?

He has though. Its just not on his main channel. I think his podcast is still up and running, and although I haven’t checked it lately the mailing service may be as well

Thanks for the link! Tom Scott is amazing at explaining things like this :D Its very, very much appreciated!

That’s intended. Even to premium subs youtube pushes adds which try and promote engagement. Its fucking awful.

Does get me out of the loop sometimes though, so I guess Im thankful for that.

To add, I personally have had all of the complaints of digital keyboards happen to physical ones. Just not the removal of the numpad. The others, wordt of which is lag, Ive had plenty. Input lag IS THE WORST.

For those who are completely clueless, this is meant as satire

Oh, shit. x.com = twitter, it’s not Xcom (the game series) xD | That took me waaay to long to realise lol

Thanks! I didn’t get it at first xD

I’d recommend you read up on the multitude of distractions people have had when talking outside.

During normal conversation people rarely looked eachother in the eyes.

Yes they do, and it’s amazing to "tune the radio. Those wires are soo finicky you can hear high school physics!!! Not sarcastic btw. I really do enjoy those damned finicky cables xD

The statement here is “all standard phones should have radio”. Is yours standard? And if you would be oh so gracious could you also give me the brand and phone type so that I might look it up myself?

Temperature isn’t everything. Humidity (as awful as a measurement it is) matters significantly more.

I tried reading them. I can’t because the fucking website doesn’t scale to my phone. It realises something should change, but it’s so shitty I can immediately see the edges and see text, images and flair cross over where it shouldn’t. Ffs.

I still had my Reddit account just for posteroties sake. I don’t anymore now. I refuse to accept changes or rules that allow for them to steal all my data. I’ve not gotten to this point with Google or Microsoft yet, but they’re not far off the chopping block.

Thanks for the thought, it’s getting me all excited at the prospect (not that I can do it off)

It’s like you said, the best option out of a bunch of flawed ones. We’ve not found the “perfect” governing system yet, but here in the Netherlands things are quite good. We’re slow to change, but when we do it often has quite good, long lasting impacts. In my personal opinion our system is better than most.

That still doesn’t excuse shitty gameplay, or like I said, an awfull basic gameplay loop. Gameplay loops don’t have to be difficult. Take minecraft as an example. The basic gameplay loop there is simple. Mine, craft, repeat. That, in its most basic form, is it. But if you look at redfall as an example, it’s using a tried and true method. Shoot, loot, upgrade, repeat. They don’t do anything else with it though.

Minecraft adds enchantments, building, cool alternate equipment.

Redfall (to my knowledge) adds nothing. And it doesn’t even have top-notch graphics. iirc Horizon: Zero Dawn looked prettier. So does Minecraft, but Minecraft is a complicated comparison that I won’t go into here.

Really? Graphics are the big issue? Then why was redfall’s basic gameplay loop worse than Skyrim’s (a game that hasn’t received a mayor update in 10-15 years)?

Like, I understand expectations can be batshit crazy, and often quite bad. You’ve got a point there. Graphics are only a minor part of what makes a good game, a good game though.

P.s. People nowadays tend to say that a game is incredibly buggy, or boring. Haven’t heard complaints about looks in a long, long time. Only heard complaints that the game is shite, or just simply doesn’t even work.

I don’t even own a soldering kit, and don’t trust myself enough with it (yet). Not everyone can do everything.
