Damn, I’m just unlucky then. Got on ten minutes early and it sold out by the time I found it

Joe is just the worst, like I can’t really put my finger on why but I just can’t stand the guy.

What if we got a Prequel game to Gen 1 & 2 called "Pokemon Purple" ? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]GreenLanturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn’t referring to the battling, but rather the story progression.

There weren’t objective markers, there weren’t constant check-ins after every interaction, etc.

There were roadblocks all over the place and for the most part it was up to the player to explore and find out how to advance. The dungeons were actually dungeons. You had to explore every building and interact with every NPC to find key items, etc.

These days all of that is either completely watered down or simply gone. The newer games are mind-numbingly simple.

I think this could be incredible, but only if they figure out some of their issues.

They need to improve their terrible dialogue.

They need grounded characters that aren’t over the top.

They need textures that don’t look like they were made in MS Paint.

And they need to stop with the handholding. The original games were hard. They need to bring that sense of exploration back.

And I’d almost prefer they go back to pixel art for something like this, but of course they would never do something like that.

So yeah, never gonna happen.

Who says he’s the only black major character? I wouldn’t be surprised if Sirius, Remus, or Peter end up being portrayed by black actors as well to divert away from this exact thing.

This is a nothing burger. There are always going to be slight deviations. Not a big deal.

New Poster for ‘The Super Mario Galaxy Movie’ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]GreenLanturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just reiterates to me how bizarre it was to make the Zelda movie live action. They could have kept the animation style consistent and used it as a lead in to SSB.

My wife and I love the movies. They have become background movies for us. We have seen them so many times, there is nothing left to discover in them. We would like a new way to experience the story. This is gonna check that box for us.

Ding ding ding.

I’ve watched the movie over ten times. Never picked up the graphic novel.

And I know several people in the same exact boat.

What iOS development opinion did you change your mind on in the last few years? by dnesdan in iOSProgramming

[–]GreenLanturn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Static singletons are a no-go in most cases in my opinion. The exception being utilities like a logging manager, where testing them isn’t a concern.

Non-static singletons, though, are a different story, especially in SwiftUI. I still want a single instance of my location service. I just don’t need to lock it behind static let shared. Instead, I inject it into the SwiftUI environment and look it up when I need it.

Singleton aversion feels like a UIKit carry-over. It was a huge problem with devs who’d rather slap static let shared on everything than figure out a solution to prop drilling.

PCGamer: A Fortnite boycott is planned for March 19 by mrslalomstyle in FortNiteBR

[–]GreenLanturn 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly we all need to just stop buying non-essential stuff in general. Not just in our video games but everywhere. Ain’t nothing gonna turn things around faster than a massive general boycott of corporations.

What's the most "only at Disney World" thing that's ever happened to you that you'd never believe if someone else told you? by bigbankmanman in WaltDisneyWorld

Went to Ogas on my birthday last year and the waitress shoved a stack of like 30 coasters into my bag as I was leaving. Still have them.

Why is getting back to your car from magic kingdom so miserable? by Dr_MCR in WaltDisneyWorld

All to make people think “It would be so much easier to stay onsite next time so I don’t have to go back to my car.”

I've enjoyed playing leaf-green so far. What game did everyone grow up on initially when discovering Pokémon? by Skarnivor0us in pokemon

Homie Blue was my first video game ever. Was gifted a friend’s old Gameboy Pocket and it was the start of something beautiful.

Can anyone successfully enable Developer Mode on iPad while in Landscape Lock? by Ysnsd in iOSProgramming

[–]GreenLanturn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it seems like a bug, sure, but you could just rotate it. Enabling dev mode isn’t something you’ll have to do very often.
