I think I would be okay with 8-10 year iterations. 3-4 years is a ridiculous money grab. I haven’t owned an XBOX since the 360 though, so…

Not really, though. Rigid structure helps with ADHD, but only when someone else is enforcing the structure. Prepubescent kids with ADHD aren’t typically capable of maintaining their own structure. They aren’t neurotypical, it’s more than distraction and energy, they have a functioning issue. They can’t tune out all the stimulus that normal brains do, and because of it they miss a lot of social cues that help with development.

My son has ADHD and no amount of reorienting our family environment would help him - he could (and has) literally be in a bare concrete room with nothing but his thoughts and get distracted and slam his hands together making exploding/punching sounds for hours, where a typical kid would get bored in seconds.

Please… Millennials will be 50 years old before GTA6 makes it’s way to market.

Sure, refresh the hardware I guess - Can we make the dang thing compatible with the games we already have at least?!

For how cheap NVMe is, it’s ridiculous that any console is less than 2TB by default. It’s just a way for them to monetize on selling additional storage.

They need to chill on releasing new generation consoles for a while (All of them, not just Nintendo). Give the current generation time for the game devs to fully utilize them. This constant upgrade in hardware for consoles is getting rather tired.

It looks like a beta game, more specifically - it looks like a slow version of Path of Exile with the graphics turned all the way down.

The slow gameplay is an issue for me too. Chris has been trying to slow the gameplay down for a while now (probably in preparation for this), and it’s only pissing people off more and more.

There also needs to be a better approach to crafting in PoE2. Learning the ins and outs of crafting in PoE is fucking daunting. I’m an adult with responsibilities. Nobody has time for learning that, or time for grinding that much currency…

So this is like a light soulslike with guns? Looks pretty good.

More importantly, there is a lot of paid content on older playstore accounts that will require merging with new accounts. There is a lot of us that have been around since gmail was invite-only and made some questionable account names that were later required to be more professional. There was no option to change existing addresses - so new ones were created. Now we have to log into all accounts on our phones to access that content.

They better start figuring out how to merge old accounts into the new ones then. There is about to be a shitton of email undelivered that was forwarded from old addresses to new addresses…

There were genuinely some good deals on Amazon yesterday though. I ended up buying a newer kindle for myself because it was the lowest price since last November according to camelcamelcamel.

I don’t understand it either. Once and done for me. I’ll never play it again after finishing it.

Using ‘Active Users’ as the metric of growth is much more reliable than the total user count since there have been rashes of instances started up just for spam accounts.

It even mentions this as a note on the fedidb site:

I disagree. At first I was frustrated that people were having so much difficulty with such a simple process, but after a while I adopted the mindset that if they’re too stupid to figure out something so mundane then I don’t want them here anyway. 🤷‍♂️

Seems kind of self-explanatory…

This app looks really good. It looks almost exactly how I have my kbin account set up with scripts in a browser, and the gestures are very nice. - I hope it adds kbin support or one of the kbin apps ends up looking like this or better.

Weird that the dev would pick the platform with the least engagement to build an app for.

It varies wildly. I’ve got about 2000 into Path of Exile, a couple hundred into fallout 4, 100 or so into each Souls game, but I had literal years of play time put into WoW before I quit playing in Wrath.

@zekiz the most significant impact will happen at the end of the month when the 3rd party tools that have been running the place quit working.
