Honestly, can’t remember the last time I queued. That said, maybe it’s a regional problem.

Just found this post, seems likely to be the same thing: https://lemmy.world/post/21602581

Sorry, I’m confusing a conversation I saw the other day that said we’d have had two GTAs in the same time star citizen had been in development for. Weird comparison.

Do you think they don’t intend to deliver? If so, we fundamentally disagree.

Mismanagement or bad planning is not a scam.

Why is this a scam?

Are you asking this about any other games? GTA6 doesn’t have a release date yet, do you have the same worry?

… Genuinely, I do see the difference between the two, but it’s weird to me that people are calling it out for things that aren’t said. They say enough; if you can’t make complaints based on reality, that’s a bit lazy.

Edit: for what it’s worth, I’ll “move the goalposts” on this one if you come back with some nonsense around how they haven’t delivered anything yet. I’ve played a fair few hours on my ship (probably a few hundred over the last decade), despite not having invested millions of pounds.

Where does he say “have no plan of delivering”, out of interest? I’ve re read it a few times and can’t find that.

I got a few nice ones last night, too! Need to process them a bit maybe, but pretty nice even straight from the camera!

Do you mean windy.app, windy.com, or another?

Others have recommended other file explorers, but I use FX and rather like it.

Central Cambridge, where I’d just about given up hope on actually seeing them without heading out of town.

I suspect he means less “too much experience” and more “not wanting to pay his desired salary”, though I may be mistaken.

I read that as “Armstrong claimed [every event they speak at is about] autism awareness because [they are] an education advocate”. Personally, I can’t see how that makes a lick of sense.

They also claim they spoke about autism “at one point”, but to be real, this appears to have been them lying about what it was to get the space and then it being a campaign event.

Do “autism awareness” events need Trump signs?

It’s also worth noting that you seem to have read the (rubbish, LLM based?) summary and not the article, which lays this all out more clearly:

Sfida told the Inquirer it was a local Republican operative, Sheila Armstrong, who contacted him to schedule the event, which she did on behalf of her nonprofit organization, Cooking4Autism, without mentioning McCormick’s campaign.

Armstrong is a member of the anti-LGBT group Moms for Liberty, which campaigns against school curricula that discusses LGBT rights or race and which the civil rights group Southern Poverty Law Center has classified as a far-right extremist group.

She was a paid staffer for the failed campaign of Republican Mehmet Oz — who lost to U.S. Sen. John Fetterman (D., Pa.) in 2022— but appears to have no official affiliation role on McCormick’s team, the Inquirer reported. She told the newspaper she offered to be a liaison for the GOP candidate in Philadelphia.

Pressed by the newspaper about whether the campaign stop was an autism awareness event, Armstrong claimed “it’s always autism awareness because I’m an education advocate” and said she spoke to those gathered about autism at one point.

Fair enough!

Honestly, though - “method or mechanic”, do you think palworld is a pretty blatant copy of Pokémon or not? Like, most of it. Not just a single bit.

I missed this - what happened? (Searching now)

Came to say roughly the same thing!

Based on that, then, do you think that the folk complaining about wokeness are always the vocal minority and the reason you see it far more in unpopular games is that there’s not a higher ratio of positive reviews to hide the assholes?

Sadly, I think this person is railing against “having more than just white guys featured” (as if that’s forced, when you start making games in new locations around the world) rather than the bland Ubi-style open-world map checklist that you might expect to be the sane complaint.

100% agree, other than the ratio of countries that can legitimately create a PSN account (and/or buy the game).

Otherwise, seems just like the Games For Windows live stuff that people didn’t love but certainly didn’t care this much about.

E.g. Fallout 3, pre-goty.
