I do stuff and sometimes I don’t do stuff
This is a game I’ll happily avoid. I had my last taste of the tired Bethesda formula with Fallout 4.
All subsequent releases since then have demonstrated to me they prefer to trudge in the same lane they established almost twenty years ago.
2016 was a weird time and you could argue it was the point when western politics veered off in the direction of populism over policy.
As a British citizen (sorry subject), it was a horrifying moment to be woken up by my girlfriend to learn that we had voted to leave by the smallest of margins.
And later that year we watched America elect a bonafide psychopathic narcissist as the president of the United States.
Why the majority elect to be kept under the boot with aggressive fiscal policies which reward the wealthy is beyond me.
Brexit was sold on lies and false promises of the ‘benefits’ Britain would see when we become ‘independent’ again.
Switched back in the summer for good. Use Firefox in my android as the default browser with DuckDuckGo as search engine. The issue is still relying on the android digital hemisphere as the default OS for my phone.
Edit : The only thing lacking is tab management. I know there is an extension. But it doesn’t satisfy.
I regret being complicit in allowing these silicon valley behemoths to reach a point where they’re indelibly linked to practically every aspect of the average person’s digital life.
At least the Fediverse and Lemmy are showing the way forward.
14 years and they’re welcome to it
You’ll be paid in NFT Snoos.
In all seriousness, this leaves the site wide open to exploitation in the pursuit of monetary gain.
Ultimately that will lead to a degredation of content (even more so than now).
It remindeds me of the time my family signed up to AOL after using one of their free trial discs from a magazine. It has the same feel as those days, discovering forums and messages boards dedicated to all kinds of esoteric interests you could think of.
It’s like the days before the dark times, before the empire.
Only the most superficial of people would use this reason as a method for diminishing or isolating someone.
I would question my relationship with them if this is their outlook.
Pretty much the same username I’ve had for years now. Gomiboy…yep,.it trash boy in Japanese. Kinda wish I had gone with something else now
Like many of us, I have been a fan of Kojima’s games over the years. With his own production company and few people to answer to, I feel his tendency to revel in surrealism and absurdity is pushing me away.
I’m not looking forward to another dose of cryptic pretentiousness from him. I’ll leave this one alone.
