If lemmy gold was a thing, I would award it to this comment.
I honestly didn't like factorio, which is odd because I'm pretty much the exact target audience (autistic). I bought it after buying Mindustry, played it for about 20 hours and then put it down and didn't pick it back up again because I realized that it just felt like work. I think the reason I didn't like it was that you spent 5 minutes coming up with a solution to some problem, and then spend 50 minutes implementing it, which bogs down the gameplay with monotonous block-placing.
Gordon Freeman 2028?
I bought Sea of Thieves about 5 years ago. Recently, they added kernal-level anticheat (which does precisely fuck-all to actually stop cheating). While that is annoying, I'm not particularly worried because the studio that makes that game is owned by Microsoft, and like all Microsoft products, it was banished to my windows partition with the rest of the spyware.
My parents didn't get me a phone until after they forgot to pick me up from school and I was left there for three hours. And even then it was a fliphone.
Actually if bees don't like the hive you put them in, they absolutely will leave. I haven't had happen to me personally but I have heard of it happening to others; you put the package in and come back to find that 200$+ worth of bees just upped and flew away.
We need to start using this game as a unit to measure mismanagement.
"In total, the project cost us approximately .51 Star Citizens."
Bloody hell, I spent a little over two dollars buying Elite: Dangerous (a similar space game) when it was on sale about five years ago and haven't spent any more money on it since. I can't even comprehend spending 10,000 dollars on an incomplete game.
To be fair its marketed as full self driving, not full self no crashing
My favorite is a patch note from Team Fortress 2: Fixed a server crash caused by sniper trying to eat his gun
I drove past a car that had its headlights flickering about 15 times every second last year. No clue if it was intentional but it was distracting as all hell. (and probably dangerous to epileptic people)
Oh yeah you're right, here it is. ๐
