Marvel’s Midnight Suns. It wasn’t a huge flop, but not successful enough to get a sequel, which makes me very sad. I think it failed because it had a useless ingame shop, which made the game look like another cashgrab, when in reality those who bought the Legendary Edition have every skin included. Legendary edition has often been on sale for 50€ and that’s definitely worth it. I enjoyed the game a lot and both the base game and DLC offer great characters that are both fun to talk and to play with.

Ich vermisse Reddit wie es früher™️ war, vor den diversen Skandalen der letzten zwei Jahre. Es gibt da immer noch guten alten Content und für Nieschenthemen, wie z.B. Subreddits zu bestimmten Spielen, liegt Reddit aktuell weiter vorn und wird es auf absehbare Zeit auch bleiben. Die Tendenz bei Reddit ist aber klar weiter negativ und ich habe null Hoffnung, dass es mittel-/langfristig besser wird. Vermutlich werden die Monetarisierungsschrauben weiter angedreht und daher gibt es für mich auch keinen Grund, weiter an Reddit festzuhalten. Ich geh nur noch alle paar Tage mal zum r/all scrollen drauf und guck mir einmal im Monat die Top Posts einiger meiner Lieblingssubs an, aber mein Konsum von Reddit hat sich mindestens halbiert und wird nie wieder ansteigen.

Lemmy ist jetzt schon gut genug für mich und ich sehe weiter Potenzial, dass die Plattform zwar langsam, aber dafür qualitativ hochwertig wachsen wird.

Ich kenn den Begriff nur von 4chan, wurde der auch in Reddit früher oft benutzt?

There is a lot of sympathy for those unlucky brits that voted remain. As a person who strongly identifies as european, I can barely imagine how it must have felt to leave our union. Made me heartbroken back then.

We just cannot give you a better treatment than those brits who voted to leave when it comes to rejoining. Unless you all move to Scotland and then leave the UK.

Generally I would agree with you, as the 10 year lifecycle you described is what’s to be expected. With Windows 10 however, Microsoft said on release it would be the last Windows and they move to windows-as-a-service. So Windows 10 not being the last Windows and the upgrade path being closed by default for many older PCs is newsworthy.

Regardless of the EU support not being what it should be, it is in the best interest of the USA to support Ukraine. Russia is a systemic rival and will not stop its aggressive expansion into other countries if they are not stopped in Ukraine. Slightly cynical, but even if Russia wins in the end, dragging this war out by supplying Ukraine also weakens Russia more than the current support weakens the USA.

I’ll throw my hat in the ring for God of War.

I’m really happy that many Playstation games are coming to PC recently. I’ve played both Spider-Men games and Horizon Zero Dawn and these ports have been great. Judging based on reviews, God Of War seems to perform well too. I’m glad many older exclusives are coming to PC now (still waiting for bloodborne) and the ports are technologically a lot more than the bare minimum. It feels like Playstation Studios respects the PC platform and their own legacy by making sure the games work well.

Es gibt aber leider einen preislichen Unterschied. 2,49€ für die vegetarische Variante ist deutlich teurer als 1,39€ für die Eigenmarke aus Tier. Ich kann mir kaum erklären, wie das vegetarische Produkt so viel teurer sein kann. Tragen Subventionen das Fleischprodukt so weit, oder wird beim vegetarischen Produkt massiv Gewinn abgeschöpft? Ich hoffe die vegetarische Variante wird billiger, damit sie sich besser am Markt durchsetzen kann.

I hope Rocksteady turns the disappointing launch around and Suicide Squad has decent success down the line.

I am a massive Suicide Squad fan, so I decided to get the game early, even though I normally stay away from Live-Service and Always-online games. The game is very entertaining in Cutscenes and the banter between the Squad is hilarious. That alone made me enjoy the Story experience very much and I feel like getting the game was worth it for me personally. There is sadly a lot of valid criticism around the game and Rocksteady has to release a much needed Patch soon to fix early issues and they need a very good Season 1 Content drop in March, or I don’t think this game will have any long lasting success.

I understand everyone who either dismisses this game on the Live-Service aspect alone or waits on deep sales for this game. If this game wasn’t so agressively designed as a live-service looter shooter, but as a single player shooter (maybe with Multiplayer added later on?) with the same story, it would have been a bigger success.

There is fun to be had in the game and there is still potential for it to become great and ultimately successful, but it will take passion and commitment from WB and Rocksteady throughout the next year.

I’m surprised to see Solo so high. It was definitely way better than 8 or 9 and I 100% agree with you that the movie was punished for the sins of 8. Han meeting Chewbacca and getting the Falcon was great. The Parsec Run was made well and I’m glad they included it.

For me, the movie just has too much fan service. Han getting his gun, his vest AND his name in the movie was too much for me. Maybe it sounds nitpicky, but it was so much fan service that I felt disrespected as a viewer. It is almost like they wanted to bribe me with nostalgia so I like the movie, and that backfired. The overall pacing of the movie was alright, but every 10 minutes they had to add a “oh remember this from Star Wars?” moment and that was too forced for me.

My List is 5, 3, 4, R1, 6, 1, Solo, 2, 7, 8, 9
