You know, I was just thinking.. back when Pillars 2 released and they added voice over for every dialog, I was like.. why, what's the point of that? Such a waste! But now I'm kinda glad they did. Feels a lot better and interesting to play, also it stops writers from text bloat, which I find highly annoying and tedious to read. Same thing with Disco Elysium. With one of the later updates, they added VO to every single line of dialog, and while I hated it at first, now I think it's good and nice and I like it. I'm playing WH40k Rogue Trader right now, and it sucks that not everything is voiced. I get why, of course, but still... if I could, I'd prefer full voice nowadays. 😕

Win11 is ok-ish most of the time if you change some config stuff first (like bringing back the original right-click menu and changing explorer tree view). However, it's still a terrible experience compared to 10 or 7.

I'm in ep 6 or 7 now as well. I'm a bit torn on it. On the one hand I would keep watching, but on the other I don't really like the story. I don't hate it, but it's also not something that really, totally, absolutely makes me want to keep watching. Guess deep down I just want more of Uncontrollably Fond, or hell, even Doona.

All I heard about it was that it's bad, so I never even bothered with it. No clue if I ever will.

Watched the first episode and this is not at all what I was expecting. 😄 Psychopathic Bae Suzy who likes to murder? Curious where this is going.

Maybe it's conspiracy brain, but if the big guys are talking about it like that suddenly, I have a feeling something else is going on.

Decided to finally get Warhammer 40K Space Marines 2, since it was 50% off in Steam sale. So far I like it. The graphics are very crips and sharp. Can't really remember much of the first game, tbh, but I think they added lots of new stuff like combos, parry, dodge, etc? Anyways. So far not bad, but I can't play for more than an hour or so, then it starts to get a bit much for me.

There's been reports about hacked hospitals here again as well. Very likely that we know who's causing this.

Finally war crimes, rape and murder is chic again! No more ridiculous "human" rights! I mean, russia is getting away with it, so why not america too? (not like they didn't before, ik ik ik).

"The investment is done with a 20B loan which they intent to recoup with cutting costs by using AI to replace visual and voice artists." Amazing. Never buy anything EA ever again.

^ I actually very much liked that scene.

For me it's more like... I probably liked it more when everything felt more "down to earth" - the more other super heroes they slap into a movie, the more weird and disconnected it feels to me. Jeez, they destroyed almost the whole town (again) in the movie. Then I look outside the window here and see that we have a road under construction for 10 years already. Technically the whole super hero world would probably have to be in ruins, because no way in hell is anyone rebuilding this fast. Guess this is why I liked the earlier Spider-Man a bit more. The scales weren't that huge yet. Not everything was a world shattering event. Hell, give me a movie about Superman rescuing a cat from a tree or something, I dunno. Just... not everything always has to be so big. It's the same with the Punisher... I really liked it when he was a lone guy, doing lone guy things. Now it's Punisher and Daredevil and Electra and what's all their names... it just doesn't feel the same anymore.

The way he goes on and on about this stuff, I think he really believes what he is saying. Every other person would be checked into a mental hospital already.

Is this to diversify more from their oil income? 😄

Damn man, doesn't that just mean the kid is too young for it? They don't even grasp the story, just watch flickering images.

And nobody is surprised. 😄

Translation: The lawyers were sharpening their knives and Disney caved, because despite their resources, they wouldn't be able to win.

I'm really curious which side has the biggest impact, though. Purely based on feelings, I would say that right wing "boycotts" never amounted to anything at all. The famous "Go woke, go broke" is basically non-existing as far as I am aware. Maybe Disney rolled back because the push back from the "woke" crowd was a magnitude bigger than the other one. Right wingers seem to be just really very loud snowflakes (or russian bots lol).

Germany had the middle-right CDU for 16 years (Angela Merkel's party). We sure as **** weren't dominated by the left, lol.

It drives me mad that Bruce still gives Trump the benefit of doubt. Tell me it's not possible to be this naive? Trump is doing *exactly* what he said he would.

It's facebook, so bear with me, but I thought the video was interesting and some around here should probably watch it: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1127212979501787

That's just going to be another step on the fascist ladder.

I always wanted to play Max Payne 1, but I just can't find the game anywhere. And Max Payne 2 is only available in german on Steam. Also very annoying.

Yes, that's kinda what I meant with my Path of Pain-post. It's true that the maps are smaller and with more benches inbetween, but those areas pop up non-stop later. You think you're done with it for a while, but then it just keeps going. For me it's too exhausting. I'm not a good enough player to do this stuff in first try. Usually I need 10 or more, to learn everything... The last thing I did was trying to get that mask shard in the bottom right corner of the map... with the lava pit. I can beat the mobs if I concentrate, but then running away from the lava fast enough... it's yet another area that I have to learn slowly, and it just feels too much now. Took a break since then and instead booted up Diablo 2 Resurrection again for lolz. Grinding some mobs with my level 90 Amazon. It's not super hard and a nice change of pace..
