The thing is, a lot of people want high fidelity games, and you are typically not getting that from a mid size studio without awful mtxs etc.

Oh I wish. Not these days.

This is me after modding out all the elements of Cyberpunk I hate.

Its weird, but Cyberpunk took such a while to grow on me because the gameplay near the start is super unfun because of how weak your starting weapons are and how spongy the enemies are.

Like if you play on the easier settings, the AI are just brain dead stupid, but at very hard, the enemies at first take forever to kill and its just a boring game of shooting, hiding behind cover and healing, waiting for your heals to recharge behind cover, and repeat.

The game basically only starts to truly be fun in my opinion in Act 2, which is kinda the majority of the game without any spoilers.

Atomfall was a bit of fun though. Clearly not a game of the year candidate but fun, no MTXs and the best difficulty settings I’ve ever seen. You get so many options to remove or add things that you find fun or don’t find fun.

Like, I realized I wanted to collect all of the [thing I don’t want to say for spoilers sake] so running out of breathe while running just became annoying because it was never a combat constraint in the first place, so it only served as a minor realism boost. Turned that off pretty quickly.

As mentioned in my other reply, it’s disappointing it’s obvious now you’re the first troll I’ve met on Lemmy with the simple trolling tactic of just saying “You believe thing you don’t and no I don’t have to have a reason” line of fake leftist trolling.

Why waste your time trolling people where barely anyone else will even see it. I don’t understand what you get out of it.

It’s obvious you are simple troll at this point so there is no point continuing. This is the first troll I’ve met on Lemmy but still disappointing.

You won’t get a rise out of me with your simple “I’ll just say you believe bad thing you don’t believe while pretending to be a leftist” rhetoric.

That’s not a position anyone has been arguing about. It’s a strawman you’ve made up to pretend that doing work for republicans is ok.

I wish democrats went with AOC or Bernie, but the reality is what it is and I am not a child.

Once again, just you making strawman arguments.

Truly just a troll at this point.

You are clearly trying to strawman me again, which seems like your go to move here.

The DNC is currently a center right organization.

Practical leftists support them because they understand that in the American political system it is impossible to make another party, so the only way to avoid what we have here is to support the democrats and change them with local politics and primaries.

The practical leftists aren’t foolish enough to believe that the democrats losing will magically move them left, as what we’ve seen is instead, they’re happy to continue being “at least we aren’t republicans”

Your attempt to call the centrrists do nothing but genocide is an astoundingly ignorant take that shows you truly don’t take politics seriously, as you only go based on vibes and not policy decisions and more than that do not understand how little can be done in a permanent fashion when voters let in the other party every 4 to 8 years and you have no usable senate super majority.

You have yet to say anything that wasn’t repeating your strawman like a broken record. Like your politics don’t have any nuance to them at all or aren’t your honest opinions but just something you where to troll people who are actually angry with the state of USA politics.

At this point I can only think you are a troll.

The continued baseless assertions I am pro genocide with literally no reason in that regard combined with the nonsensical idealistic view of politics that wouldn’t make sense to anyone who thought about it for even a second make this obvious.

Still not an ounce of reasoning for your positions, or even what your positions actually are, just childish imagineering of positions you can pretend I have.

You pretend you are better as a troll while you actively support the republican party, speeding up the decline of America and pushing the democrats even further right.

Spending your time warning us that the thing you partially are responsible for happening happening is sooooo brave and very strong.

The idea that literally doing marketting for voter apathy in the most important election of the past multiple decades is a sane take is tantrum throwing naivety.

You all, almost certainly not visibly marginalized people made awful decisions that other people had to pay the price for first. Probably the only socialism you actually believe in.

The people that your wing of the party loved genocide too much to listen to.

You aren’t making some poignant criticism, this is a child throwing their food off the pram because they’re annoyed they need food to eat, and it isn’t exactly what they want.

You are champagne socialists who act like you’re better than the people being realistic because not getting your hands dirty is doing no work towards the goals you pretend to have.

You ignored people who knew better than you did because you wanted genocide that badly, and there isn’t a centrist who doesn’t prefer trump over telling netanyahu no.

The fact you argue against made up strawmen like this is everything I need to know. You spend time arguing against strawmen as you have no argument with weight.

You have no arguments against anything I’ve actually said.

No practical leftist is happy with the Israeli genocide. Real, actual, non children realize that just because both options lead to some amount of harm does not mean they are the same, nor does it mean there is a magic third option.

There was no primary this time, and we’re aware the control Israel has over US politicians. You can pretend that letting people die is somehow you being above it all, or you can realize this and make the best of a shit sandwich.

The amount of effort it seems people who like to call themselves leftists but aren’t remotely interested in any practical means of getting there are astonishing.

I don’t think they ever make good faith arguments and spend 100% of their time online complaining about the practical leftists, doing things like calling them centerists for realizing their 1 day plans for revolution aren’t actually ever coming to fruition, or pointing out that their rhetoric, has, and continues to harm people by pulling power from the practical and pragmatic to the whimsical nonexistent nonsense they call solutions to problems but are actually just dream goals.

Somehow, no matter the damage they cause, they double down on pretending the people who aren’t in dream land but have the closslest to their goals as them, are the real problem worth complaining about and not the people setting things on fire.

I have to feel like these people are Jill Stien esque psyops sent to derail leftist ideas from ever actually seeing the light of day.

The people partially responsible for its results saying anyone else is carrying water is insanity.

The mid terms are not too long from now (if remotely free elections will exist thanks partially to them), so the idea that it’s all over so let’s let all the marginalized people die because we weren’t happy enough letting all the gazans die is a hell of a take from the people saying they aren’t pro genocide.

I’m not quite sure I can even begin to follow the logic there.

There are 2 realistic options and people pretending there are 3 are choosing the worst of 2.

That’s an easy position to have except it immediately makes every conversation easy to cohear with sealioning.

I can understand being skeptical of the other persons summary of sentiment, I am as well, but I don’t think your statement is accurate.

No, Im pretty sure these people pretending to have innocent opinions are pro genocide because they are putting their egos ahead of pragmatism by pretending they don’t understand the immense harm done when they falsely equate both parties just because neither are left leaning.

Also when they ignore that the only chance of having leftist policies come to life in America is through shifting a winning democrat party over multiple terms in a very boring and not fun at all way rather than a fictional grass roots uprising magically changing the USA, famous for its molasses slow politics, over night.

With claims like this, you make it very easy to dismiss what you’re saying, but given that I kinda can guess what you mean if I give you the biggest benefit of the doubt humanly imaginable, are you referring to the type of people who say shit like “we should form a party” completely oblivious to the way their own politcal system works and the fact that it would only ensure that the only path to escaping the regime was sealed shut?

Whats the issue with ml?

I dont get this
