I think people should be free to run instances how they want.

Thanks for looking into it! I was curious after OP mentioned but it seems like I’ll just stick to obsidian +syncthing for now.

Yep! Like I said, a lot of the negativity is pretty justified. I just wanted to provide one positive for people to see.

There’s a lot of negativity here, and a lot of it is pretty justified. But I don’t hate the idea of paid mods. Like if there’s a way for authors like the ones the made Enderal or other really big mods to make some money off of it that’s really great. Is Bethesda going to be fair about them? Probably not. Is Bethesda going to be competent with the system? Probably as competent as they are at anything else (derogatory).

But at least it’s a way that you can make some money back for your work where you don’t have to worry about chargebacks from trolls costing you more than the donations they were originally giving you. And this can be a pretty big problem for donation driven works. Someone donates $1, 200 times. Then charges them all back. Paypal charges you $15 processing fee for each chargeback. And you can contest it but who needs that? If Bethesda can be the entity brokering all of it, then they are the ones that take the chargeback risk.

So in theory, I don’t hate it. But it will all depend on the implementation and competency of Bethesda (not looking good here).

I’ve never considered the possibility of car mods existing! It looks pretty cool if you just want to go on a highway trip!

Mid 20’s fps in the early meadows isn’t great :(

True, but is a person not in a car really a person?

Thank you! That explains it perfectly

Can you elaborate on what you mean by “this is not a serious game, this is a traditional game with the goal of making players think”? I like the idea of games that make players think but saying it’s not a serious game can mean you intend it to be silly or that it’s a very low priority for you and that people shouldn’t take it too seriously.

Remembering the good ol’ George Carlin bit about thinking about how dumb the average person is… and then realizing that half the people are dumber than that.

If I have cameras… I really don’t mind supplying the footage if police ask. But I really would like that they ask. And I REALLY don’t want them to have footage that they don’t ask for and don’t obtain a warrant for.

Oh yes, mod tools for lemmy are hot garbage

A certain number of hours reached is a fairly easy metric to use and it works great for a lot of games. But let me tell you about Senua’s Sacrifice… that game is short. It was only $20 or something and 8 hours to play through. But it made me ugly cry at the ending. It was so emotionally charged I just sobbed for the girl. That was definitely worth the price.

For coop games with dialog I really loved how Baldur’s Gate 3 let everyone see the dialog choices and click on them to vote for what they would want. The player in the dialog didn’t have to choose it, but they could see and it let every player feel like they were a part of every conversation instead of just watching.

The amount of wear on the tires of a bicycle which let’s just assume the heaviest person riding the heaviest e-bike would be a few hundred pounds wearing on the tires? Compared to several tons for an auto pressing down on 4 tires it’s a LOT less.

If they thought they could get away with it once, they will try to get away with it again

We do have sound cards in the form of DACs at least
