  • Alan Wake 2
  • Last of part 1 remake
  • Hogwarts legacy

Alan Wake 2 is an amazing game, glad I got it. Visually it’s stunning, storytelling is amazing and on all aspects just wow. Never thought they do make a sequel out of Alan Wake.

Replaying Last of us and still loving it. Not much else to say about it.

Unfortunately I’m not that happy about Hogwarts legacy. The beginning was great but after 3 hours, I find the gameplay and story very dull and close to dropping it. It makes me a bit sad, I like Harry Potter in general and was hoping for a great magical game. However, they did the whole world building of Hogwarts very well.

steeznson ,

Hogwarts Legacy is very repetitive. I wasn’t able to stick with the witcher-lite combat until the end, although a few in-game seasons passed and I felt pretty close. They did a good job on the school but the grounds and wider landscape are barren.

Zahille7 ,

If only WB would have let them cook a bit more so we could actually get RPG mechanics in the game, and quidditch!

Riding around on the broom in Hogwarts Legacy was one of my favorite things to do.

RaoulDook , to retrogaming in Does anyone know of a Linux-based or playable via emulator/wine of the NES Rygar?

Rygar was weird as fuck. That guy running around cloud lands, throwing out a spiderweb looking bonker thing. I never understood what I was doing on that game.

AndrewZabar OP ,

I never progressed far enough to make it to the cloud city my understanding was you needed to play some flute or something? This was so long ago.

ExtraMedicated ,

As a kid playing that on the NES, I recall getting frustrated and hating the game, but then I played on an emulator years later and enjoyed it.

AndrewZabar OP ,

Well I’m gonna get it running at some point when I have the time because I think I’d get a kick outta it.

ExtraMedicated ,

Shit, you got me feeling nostalgic now. I think I’ll need to play it again too.

AndrewZabar OP ,

Hah.

I’m about to finish Phoenix Wright 1 and with it the whole saga (I started my replay with 2), and I’m playing Breath Of Fire IV. The first time was 2 years ago and my phone died mid-playthrough, hopefully this time there will be no issues. I’m playing it on an RG Cube for the portability, the only downside is I can’t fully appreciate the gorgeous sprite work in such a small screen.

    I don’t get how Lemmy is better than just using Apollo or some other 3rd party app to use Reddit… Oh wait…

    Because it is a federated video platform completely independent from YouTube and Google. So Google has no say on what goes on it, who gets to post, how it is administered, etc.

    but channels i watch dont upload to this right?

    I mean if you watch The Linux Experiment then yeah, and only because he chooses to upload to both YouTube and PeerTube (different instance). Generally speaking though, most of my favorite creators don’t upload there. Yet…

    isn’t this a whole different site?

    Correct, and that’s why it’s so important to get creators to put their stuff on PeerTube!

    IMO, PeerTube is the long-term solution to YouTube. Eventually, they will block Invidious, break FreeTube and NewPipe, and generally make YouTube unusable for people who cannot afford to pay and/or give up all privacy to Google. Or, knowing Google, they might just kill it for funzies.

    We need to learn how to use PeerTube, and we should convince creators to upload to PeerTube in addition to YouTube.

    In dark souls 2 the pursuer killed me so many times I almost quit. I don’t know what it was about that fight but I could not beat the fella.

    Also in dark souls 1 I got killed by Havel the rock so many times and once I killed him and found his armour it held a special place in my heart. I’d try to wear as much of it as I could without fat rolling. Which usually left me wearing no ar in some slots.

    werefreeatlast , to mildlyinfuriating in I need new glasses. The only insurance-approved place I can shop online will cost $250 with my needs. I went to a "cheap" glasses website that doesn't accept insurance: $250. Yay, America.

    Get Kaiser Permanente!.. I got new $150 for my $20 copay, which I was told I didn’t need to pay!

    Weeks later they started sending me daily reminders to pay my copay and the extra 100 I owed on the frame!

    Surely I don’t understand healthcare.

    FlyingSquid OP ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    Unfortunately, my wife, who’s insurance I am on, doesn’t get to choose policies. Also, nothing is in-network for Kaiser around here. We did have it when we lived in L.A. and my daughter was born in Providence St. Joseph in Burbank, which was a really nice hospital and they paid for it. But I’m in Indiana now. No Kaiser stuff here.

    Her vision plan is called VSP and it clearly sucks. But again, no choice.

    werefreeatlast ,

    Well then you don’t have to put up with the daily Kaiser pay 5 bucks please.

    Which… really just makes it cuter.

    hightrix , to asklemmy in Who the hell is MrBeast?

    Ignorance is bliss in respect to this question.

    Random streamer that is popular. That’s it. Ignore and move one.

    CanadaPlus , to asklemmy in Sorry for the potentially controversial question: is it normal for less attractive people to settle down with partners they don't find physically attractive?

    Relatedly, I know someone who seems highly compatible but who I’m not attracted to at all. How would I even manage that? There’s no way I could hide it, even if that was justifiable, so how do you say “you’re almost physically repulsive to me, but I want to date you anyway” without being a dick? (I’m reasonably good looking myself)

    twice_twotimes ,

    I really wasn’t attracted to my now husband at all when we met. I remember also really disliking his smell (not BO, just regular pheromones or whatever).

    11 years later we are extremely happily married and he’s sexy as fuck. His appearance hasn’t changed (except that he’s actually a little overweight now and looks a decade older) but every day he’s just hotter and hotter. Not like a “I just love him so much on the inside.” Like I genuinely perceive him to be extremely physically attractive (and equally good to smell) and look back on early days with complete confusion.

    n=1 so grain of salt and whatnot, but I’d say if you’re vibing enough to make this a question worth asking then it’s probably worth giving it a shot to see if attraction develops

    Edit: Please don’t actually tell them you’re not attracted to them though. That’s weird and unnecessary. You don’t need to lie either, just don’t comment on their appearance until/unless you start to notice those little things that have grown on you.

    CanadaPlus ,

    I guess, but like, what if I can’t get it up, when things progress that far? (The genders are reversed here) Or just am obviously hesitant?

    I feel like that’s the worst time to have to explain.

    MajorHavoc ,

    Lol. I get it, but it doesn’t have to be a big deal. Just don’t explain. They’ll just figure they need to figure out different ways to stimulate, which is true anyway.

    usualsuspect191 ,

    Sounds like The Mirror Has Two Faces

    If the movie is anything to go by, the secret will come out and there will be a fight but you’ll also fall in love and become attracted to them before the credits roll

    CanadaPlus ,

    Wait, which one is supposed to not be attractive? Haha.

    Elle McPherson, obviously.

    RBWells ,

    I would say don’t. My ex was into me as a person but I was a skinny flat chested sort and his ideal was fat and curvy. I didn’t want to be like that but it’s dreadful to be loved “despite your looks”. Really bad for self esteem.

    It worked out in the end, not with him but the lean body type survives life, pregnancy, etc. without as much change (small don’t fall!) and when I got older, more guys were into it because I’ve aged well, and I feel better looking now - not in an absolute sense but relative to others my age.

    Basically - you don’t find them attractive, be a good friend not a lover. Just because you don’t like their looks doesn’t mean nobody will. They might be someone else’s type.

    CanadaPlus ,

    Yeah, the other respondent’s theory seems to be that she’ll figure it out, but won’t ever bring it up because she’s just so damn glad that someone more conventionally attractive likes her. I don’t think I can rely on that.

    I’m certain she’s aware there’s people who have unconventional tastes, and part of the reason she seems like a good choice for me is that she wouldn’t beat around the bush if that’s what she wanted.

    RBWells ,

    Honestly I never minded being “minority attractive” when I was, because the guys who thought me good looking really seemed to find me beautiful, and almost nobody is really universally physically attractive. She doesn’t need you specifically to be into her looks, let her find someone who is. Someone is, I cannot believe otherwise based on what I have seen. (Like my ex, into body types I find grotesque, or the guys I dated when I was underweight who just were so fat-phobic that I could have been a skeleton and they would have approved.)

    Someone is into her specific physical being, never doubt it. Don’t mess with her head.

    CanadaPlus ,

    Yes, I don’t want to do that. Messing with her head is the last thing I would want to do.
