Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 - Official 2023 Announcement Trailer
  • I have nothing but Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs to judge them on and based on that, they are very good at writing mysteries and cryptic stuff but they seem to be lighter on the gameplay side. From that, the writing will be good but hopefully it will have any gameplay.

  • Poland bans sale of energy drinks to under-18s
  • Coffein simply blocks the receptors in your body that send the signals to your brain that you are tired, while sugar is essentially pure energy. I'm no expert on this subject, but afaik both coffein and sugar increases blood pressure, which is probably not an ideal thing.

  • Poland bans sale of energy drinks to under-18s
  • As far as I can tell, the difference between the brand colas and the non-brand ones, is that the brand ones don't destroy my guts. 2 cups of the cheaper colas and I'm shitting liquid for a week.

  • Lemmy: Come for the freedom, stay for the memes.
  • I'm surprised there is no porn of Linux yet

  • 2023 might be the best year for sequels and worst for new IPs
  • Except in almost every single instance, a sequel of a beloved game sold better than the original? There is a reason companies just prefer pumping out sequels instead of new IPs.

  • Languages without the letter U can't call it a U turn.
  • The name U turn itself is dumb anyways (alongside shit like T-shirt, I kid you not I tought my english teacher was trolling us because I refused to believe at 12 that people in any part of the world use a '-' in a regular word they use everyday).

  • Here we go again
  • The way things are going with data collection and advertising, the EU is bound to put heavy restrictions on it, basically killing the market Google is built on. They are trying to find a middle ground between banning data collection and full on everything being collected you do online, and if ad blockers just happen to die in the crossfire, it's not Google's concern.

  • Look guys! There's a Lemmy version of r/place happening!
  • And it's literally the same as the reddit one including the spez ist hurenchön text. Guys, this is not how you make an indepentent platform.

  • Next Battlefield Is A "Reimagination" Of The Series
  • It's probably a thing where it's cyclical of how much people are accepting of broken releases based on parameters like 'when was the last huge broken launch?' and the current generation who didn't experience broken launches sunddently entering the gaming space.

  • Next Battlefield Is A "Reimagination" Of The Series
  • Players have been getting less and less patient with disaster launch and thus hated the game which is known for disaster launches. A few games get away with it but since Cyberpunk or maybe even Fallout 76, the general concensus is that a broken game is not worth the time, not even if it gets better later. Games that get away with it usually have some saving grace, like Jedi Survivor being playable but having unplayable performance on PC. Even then, it pretty much lost the PC crowd. BF 2042 was unplayable at launch on every platform, had no redeeming qualities and it even tore out core parts of the game, like the class system, in favor of systems that can be indefinitely monetised. In a game that costet AAA money.

    The only reason Ubisoft is getting away with the "it'll be good later" thing is that a) they invented it in the AAA space with Rainbow6Siege and b) they actually stick to these games for a long time. EA gave 2 years for Star Wars BF2 to sort its shit out, put out a new release of the game with all the cosmetics in it and the the next week announced that they no longer support it. Neat. Meanwhile, Ubisoft has not only stuck with R6S, but also developed a new anti-cheat system so it doesn't die to cheater and are still sticking with it. Another Ubisoft title, For honor. The game was okay at launch but playercount wise it was DOA. Yet, the game is still getting updates and new content regurarly 5 or so years later. THAT is the difference. EA dips on the first sign of losing money while, for all the things I despise Ubisoft, I gotta give props to them for sticking to their games for long time.

    Also, Battlebit has shown that BF has a place in the modern gaming, EA/Dice just refused to just make a BF game for the past almost decade. They made something that resembled BF with WW1 and WW2 paint, then a piece of turd, but not a single BF game.

  • Kuwait to distribute 100,000 copies of Quran in Sweden after Muslim holy book desecrated at one-man protest
  • So one person kicking up a big fuss by burning a book is rising racism in the entirety of Europe

  • Major 4-day workweek study suggests that when we work 5 days we spend one doing basically nothing
  • To be fair, for those jobs the 5 day workweek, as it is known traditionally, has never been true. They were always either doing starnge shifts like 24 hours twice then 2 free days, repeat or working way more than 5 days a week, based on demand (which of course has been increasing since businesses hire less and less for some fuckin reason).

  • Major 4-day workweek study suggests that when we work 5 days we spend one doing basically nothing
  • I barely spend a workweek doing a day's worth of work, let alone 4.

  • Ukraine updates: Putin warns Poland not to attack Belarus
  • Bruh, Putin's statements literally read like a schiczo rant from 4chan

  • Hard times
  • It might be regional. Where I live they just skip the whole call the manager thing and the manager is the one monitoring the self checkout line and is the one you go to to ask for help. Thankfully I don't buy much of anything that'd be 21+ so I don't mind just going to the one open cash register to do that there.

  • Just bang Hitler's mom
  • We would have gotten a communist germany. The first big enemy Hitler and his nazi party had to defeat were the communists who were operating similar death gangs to their gestapo.

  • When everyone can go to art school
  • I'm so glad we are reposting trash takes from Reddit under the guise of shitposting
