If you got offended by my shitposting, lol. lmao.
Notifications stay off because I don't play chess with pigeons. The fact that you want to argue about a shitpost with a stranger on the internet named "Dookieman" is all I need to know your opinion isn't worth hearing.
Downvotes are delicious trophies; I've seen what you people like. Keep them coming.

Sony doubles down. Only responds to their investors, not the consumers. I've never bought a digital console title. That will continue.

They're painfully mediocre. The gameplay is straight out of Assassin's Creed 2 with some Skyrim sprinkles for good measure. Run to the tower, reveal the map, do the quest, check the box, go to the next one, maybe stumble across a cave with some minor loot. Snooze.

And the Switch titles in all of those franchises range from some of, to the flat out worst, in their respective series.

TotK may as well be DLC for BotW, and Windwaker would have been more similar to those titles were it not for the technical limitations of the Gamecube.

They still can't seem to get Starfox right since 64 and even that was a reboot of the NES title. You're really gonna look at all those 3DS attempts to reboot the same NES game and tell me that's not slop?

Pokémon is seeing the worst quality of the whole franchise on Switch and apparently Pokémon Go was just to train military robots or some shit. You're really gonna look at 3DS models in a Switch game and tell me that's not slop, my opinion is just wrong?

Smash Ultimate's online play has 11, ELEVEN frames of input lag under ideal circumstances, the metagame has been busted since Steve, DLC characters are OP, patches were promised, then canceled, and support is over now. You're really gonna tell me that's acceptable, totally not slop, my opinion just sucks?

I hope you play Switch games forever, and I hope you love it.

Nintendo churns out the same slop franchises year after year and aggressively sues anyone for anything.

Sony (somehow) believes that investors are what give their company value, not customers, and certainly not employees. They're abandoning physical media and not backing down on their anti-consumer practices that only continue to get worse.

Microsoft has become the new EA, aggressively buying up every single schmedium-sized gaming studio they can get their hands on, mismanageing them all into the ground, then selling them off for parts to save their own asses while leaving talented studios to die on the vine. They're basically buying the right to scrap their competition and they'll get away with it because they have enterprise IT subscriptions to absorb the losses.

AAA gaming is dead. And greed killed it. I'll be playing indie PC games and emulators for the foreseeable future.

Do you think I should get a PC or a PS5 for my birthday?

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 15h ago

PC.

Consoles used to be cheap enough to justify their limitations. Nowadays, once you buy the console, controller(s), controller charger, PS+ subscription, and a few games, you could have bought a PC with better (or at minimum, the same) graphics, more input options, a WAY bigger game library, and FREE online play. You already pay for your internet connection, why should you pay again because you want to play Playstation with it?

Plus, your platform is (almost) always backwards compatible, you can play on custom servers, you can play with mods, and if you're just dying to play some console games, emulation is also an option for you.

Not to mention, if you don't have one already, simply having a desktop PC makes computer-related tasks and even web browsing SO much easier than with a laptop or, even worse, mobile device.

Trigger rumble for Xbox controller?

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 15h ago

Double check you don't need a different driver for a wired connection. Double check it's not using the default 360 controller or default USB controller driver. Confirm Bluetooth will solve the problem by testing with a USB dongle before committing to a card. Save your receipt so you can return it or keep it as a backup solution.

U.S President FCC faces blowback in attempt to police speech on broadcast TV: “Chilling message to all broadcasters: carry speech we don’t like at your peril.”

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 19h ago

This isn't new. It's always been this way. He's just finally saying the quiet part out loud.

The FCC has always asserted governance over the airwaves on the basis that only so many frequencies are available so regulations are required to ensure their limited availability goes toward the advancement of the public good.

Because the airwaves are freely available to anyone with an antenna, one of the ways the FCC "ensures the advancement of the public good" is regulating what's allowed to be shown and said on television under the basis that children are watching at home.

The FCC has a long and varied history of enforcing censorship on the airwaves. It used to be that women's periods couldn't be mentioned, it used to be that actors had to keep one foot on the floor so they didn't show "a man and woman in bed together."

Violators have always been subject to fines and revocation of their license. Corrective action has always been at the sole discretion of the FCC. The only thing that's changed is how openly aggressive the FCC has been wielding their authority.

Historically, the FCC has always been regarded as having too much power, but they've always managed to avoid regulation by wielding it responsibly and conservatively and generally not pissing off the public to much. The current administration is highlighting why this has been a mistake.

Yeah, but if you've ever been involved in a big project at work, you know that 80% of the progress comes from 20% of the effort.

What is your least favourite thing about dating or romantic relationships?

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 19h ago

The "getting to know you" phase. All the same questions and answers, where are you from, what are your hobbies, how many brothers and sisters do you have, giving the same answers as always but pretending not be bored by it.

Things are much better once you either get past that stage or mutually decide it doesn't matter and just get to what you came for

The other bullshit is, "news" channels have to abide by rules and regulations against bias and misinformation. Every time Fox News gets sued for something like that, they say, "We're not "news" we're "entertainment media", no reasonable person would take anything we say as fact" to avoid being regulated or held accountable. This was their entire defense in the Tucker Carlson v Dominion Voting case

all I care about is whether it sounds good or not

"I don't care about anyone but me or anything except for what I want"

You sound selfish and insufferable.

I just went back and relived my flash childhood

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 1d ago

There are also ways to get a Flash runtime environment set up on a USB. Then, you can load .swf files onto it and run them locally. This is how I would play flash games at school after they blocked all the flash sites and installers.

Day 744 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 1d ago

That depends on what you mean by "using furniture". The mechanics have always worked, so I'm assuming your asking, "have animations been added when using furniture?"

You sit down in chairs or on the side of beds when you sit to rest, but you still don't climb in/out of beds when sleeping or sit longways like some mods allow.

Of all the stuff that's been added and is still missing, I don't really care if they ignore minor cosmetic stuff like this for a while. Towing needed to happen, but it's still implemented poorly. Sports cars tow better than pickup trucks for some reason and nothing can tow faster than about 35 mph. I'd much rather that be fixed than focusing on "would be nice" stuff like animations for minor actions.

There's not much to see in the red areas. All the tourist spots everyone wants to visit while on vacation are outside them.

Why is everything bound by a perquisite and mortality?

Dookieman12 @piefed.social 1d ago

Entropy. The second law of thermodynamics. Things naturally change from a more-ordered state into a less-ordered state.

Energy is required to reverse this process. All the processes you describe are putting things into a more-ordered state and thus, require energy in some form.
