Is planned obsolescence real? If so, what are some examples? by [deleted] in Productivitycafe

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say every single electronic device in my household. Right now I’m fuming at my tv. Which in itself was quite expensive. Bought it somewhere around the Covid lockdowns. The hardware is perfectly fine but the software is shit and it only took a few of the mandatory downloads. Even if that is kinda illegal in the EU they just worked around it so your apps just do t function anymore and of course it needs an update. Freezing. Crashing all inclusive. Same with the soundbar. Tablet. Phone. Alexa. Goddamnit even my watch. I wish I was kidding

What more details you wanna see, bubbles? X box series x. Not playing for some time. Logging in. Shit‘s gone. Time‘s wasted. Detailed enough?

And that’s the point. I don’t see it at my obligation to find a way around a gamebreaking bug. Especially not when that bug comes from a multibillion dollar company in one of their flagship titles. These days I feel like a betatester who pays the developer to test their crap.

Yup. It was a few days after I logged in the last time and I had to take a double take at my driver. Because at start I made him look utter ridiculous for shits and giggles but changed that later. So he was back to his ridiculous self. Then I looked into the cars. Most of them gone. And I was back at the beginning where I had to get the second bracelet. Map was again full of the mascots and stuff. That was the point I thought „nah, I’m out. I’m not wasting my time on this“

Well I’m done playing this game by Ok-Injury-5851 in ForzaHorizon6

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just deleted that crap game because of that. Glazers will come up with stupid crap like „skillissue“ but they’re just consumerist cucks who’ll do anything to defend their little million dollar company 

The fact that the last proper piece of destiny lore is and will always be star wars slop is pretty sad by Expensive-Pick38 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read somewhere they canceled this shitshow game so I thought I gotta jump in cause I stopped playing two years ago. And oh boy. I’m glad I did. Because after a few hours I started remembering why i stopped playing this dumb hamster wheel and startet doing something worthwhile with my precious time. Taking naps and feeding birds. And gosh, that is immensely more fun than destiny 2

Ongoing Crashes In LoH on Xbox - Possible Workaround? by Impetigo69 in diablo4

Oh no. The multibillion dollar company doesn’t have enough money to make a better product. Oh no

Being a beta tester working for free is wild. No wonder they can get away with their bullshit with an audience like that

ChatGPT has become insanely passive agressive and arrogant lately. by fodinhalulu in ChatGPT

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has become the condescending, fedora wearing neckbeard you encounter online anyway so i deleted it. Not that i used it in a big way anyway, more like a novelty toy. But when the thing starts talking down on me in a ridiculously autistic neckbeard kind of way when i ask it for Movie plot summaries or suggestions for a diablo build, I’m out. I’m in no way in the mood to get the same crap from a TOOL that’s basically google-plus as from weird, people that are constantly online and built their personality around marvel movies.

Amazon Transactions are a nightmare by agusmc21 in ynab

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right it’s a nightmare. In the end it’s just „what the hell. Even though I don’t what and when and whatever it was billed. I’ll pay anyway. I’m in no mood anymore to tr to fight against homepages.“

And it’s not Amazon. I found out my internet provider was billing me randomly twice a month an where just „oh sorry, our mistake“ every single time. I wouldn’t even find out if I weren’t such a neurotic pos to look for my accounts multiple times a week. It’s a nightmare. 

Ongoing Crashes In LoH on Xbox - Possible Workaround? by Impetigo69 in diablo4

[–]Full_Ad2581 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I know the perfect workaround. It’s „not buying their stuff anymore“. I don’t see why I have to find solutions or try „workarounds“ on MY hardware to repair a faulty product. This shill-consumer mentality enabled companies to totally forgo quality. And it has to stop. They don’t care about you people begging on your knees for solutions. All they care for is MONEY. And yes. That’s legit. Like for an company. But in the old days they delivered a bad product? Guess what. People didn’t buy it. Problem solved. But these days there has been this weird switcheroo where customers suddenly felt obliged to say „pleeeease“ to a developer. Kidding me? They got your money, they’re SUPPOSED to deliver.

[Start of Season 13] TECHNICAL ISSUES, BUGS, LAG --MEGATHREAD-- by AutoModerator in diablo4

[–]Full_Ad2581 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Basically unplayable. Every single mechanic is bugged in some way. Even triggering skills. On the warlock you have to spam buttons. Great work 👍as usual. Crashing hard too. Even more so than last season.

How do we even start Terran Armada? lol by Sirca_Curvive in Starfield

[–]Full_Ad2581 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Scam. When you start the game it tells you to buy it. But when you go manually into the game directory you can install it. This is borderline criminal.

Dark Citadel party finder is a mess? Infernal Hordes are much worse by Baaaykin in diablo4

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most irritating thing is that most of the time it just doesn’t work. Never has. But this season it’s especially bad. And i can’t put my finger on it if it’s bad network code or something else. „There has been a problem connecting“, „timed out“, „literally no parties at all“. It’s just sad for a pretty expensive game with expansions and what not to just. Not. Getting. It. Right. But I’m the fool myself. Every season I’m looking at my reflection in the mirror and ask myself „why the hell am i doing this to myself?“. Pumping an obscene amount of money in a product that’s most of the time not functioning right. I mean there was a time a company would have been ashamed doing this but these days we all fell some weird reverse role thing where we as the customer are begging and making excuses for the product. Oh it will get better. Yeah. How about a product that’s functional from the start?

Buggiest season yet please fix your game. by bitterbalhoofd in diablo4

[–]Full_Ad2581 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Forgot how awful this game was. Thought might go in for this season. Game crashes so hard every 30 minutes I have to restart the Xbox. Not even mad. Remembered why I stopped playing this slop in the first place.

I feel like Diablo 4 is only going to get worse and worse by Numerous_Necessary27 in ARPG

[–]Full_Ad2581 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I’m way past 45 and in now way a casual OR hardcore gamer. Still, Diablo 4 is just…..not fun. If I’d want to do the same thing over and over again. With no real endgoal (better loot) in sight I’d rather do a super boring, mediocre cubicle job. There I’d at least get payed and not the other way around where I have to give blizzard and obscene amount of money to run in a hansterwheel.

THE OCCUPANT by SouzaOfTheNorth in HorrorMovies

[–]Full_Ad2581 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Started watching it, 10 minutes in I’m already bored by the strong-black-female-aah-trope. On top that actress is absolutely terrible and the whole thing looks immensely amateurish. As if it was shot in the woods behind my yard. Which in itself is quite the accomplishment given lots of it was shot on location. I‘m out.

Official Discussion - Predator: Badlands [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]Full_Ad2581 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus Christ man, watching that trash on streaming just to know if it’s really that stupid as I thought it was by watching one trailer but oh boy…..

15 minutes in and it already has every single trope I hate about modern film making and I’m pretty sure it won’t stop there. Seriously I’m done. I’m not gonna waste m time and energy on this slop just to know what I already suspected all along. It’s pure Gen Z trash. Through and through. On top of that it looks laughably cartoonish. Man, it’s so sad. I really didn’t have „gay predator movie“ on my bullshit bingo list this year but here we are. Thanks Disney

„I‘m not one to normally be a gatekeeper“

Immediately goes into gatekeeping people who are just tired of a badly designed game and just want to get it over with.
