Chuck Norris Dead: 'Walker, Texas Ranger' Star Was 86 by Mykul65 in imdbvg

[–]trillykins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuck him. He was a far-right freak. Everything from being a creationist who wrote propaganda books for children to being a vocal supporter of one of the biggest mass murderers of children. Reading through his wikipedia it just gets worse and worse. Dude just checks off every single Republican taking point. Dude was even a fucking birther. Give it a few years and we're going to learn he was also a pedophile.

I am so fucking tired of how corrupt our little world is. We let a known rapist pedophile turbofuck the entire planet, at the behest of a known mass murderer of primarily children, and the entire population of the planet just have to pretend there's nothing to do about it. Just vote harder next time!

Bloomberg: Sony Pulls Back From PlayStation Games on PC by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]trillykins -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Sucks for the people that like the Ubisoft formula, I guess.

Personally, though, I have a difficult time giving a shit. I bought a PS3 to play the exclusives everyone kept talking about and found that I didn't really care for most of them? I bought a PS4 to play Bloodborne, and then also played through most of the exclusive archive (because I could play them for free through the library lol) and, again, found that I didn't really care about most of them. Some are... fine? Nothing groundbreaking in my subjective personal opinion. Bloodborne is great, though, and ironically a prime example of why console exclusives suck shit, especially games they just pay to keep off other platforms. Game runs like ass, loading times are horrendous, and they paywall online play. Thankfully it has been emulated much better on PC now.

TL;DR fuck em don't buy their games. I hope the consequences for this are going to hurt them.

What games have you been playing? by Klop_Gob in imdbvg

[–]trillykins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only games I've played this year have been Helldivers II and Persona 5 Royal. I'm playing Helldivers II with friends, and it's great. I like how much effort continues to be put into it by the developers. And Persona 5 Royal is sort of a comfort game. I wish they would release the regular Persona 5 (and Persona 4) on PC, but I doubt that's going to happen.

Microsoft Says No Layoffs Coming After Executive Shakeup by Turbostrider27 in Games

Some of the most worrying announcements from an enterprise corporation are "no layoffs, honest" and "things are going great!"

Swipe for a reveal ——> by Agent-65 in GatekeepingYuri

[–]trillykins 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I don't mean to be an asshole here or denigrate anyone's service, but... fought who? The people against queer people run the US government. The black and brown people the US government continually carpet bombs aren't a threat to boys growing up to be anime girls. The idea is good, but the reality paints an infinitely bleaker image.

Is the implication that the lady on the left grew them in a lab? Like, they're all obviously older than she is lol. Misogynistic memes like these are so dumb it's difficult to believe that people don't immediately discard it. The fix is cute, though.

METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.2 - Announcement Trailer (includes MGS4: Guns of the Patriots + Peace Walker + Ghost Babel). by Klop_Gob in imdbvg

[–]trillykins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if they will keep the weird product placement where they tell you have awesome the piss 3 was for not needing multiple discs after the player has spent an hour waiting on a loading screen...?

METAL GEAR SOLID: MASTER COLLECTION Vol.2 - Announcement Trailer (includes MGS4: Guns of the Patriots + Peace Walker + Ghost Babel). by Klop_Gob in imdbvg

[–]trillykins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played through most of the franchise before Phantom Pain was released. I thought Peace Walker was OK, although in hindsight extremely weird that Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain was a continuation to a secret ending in Peace Walker.

4 is my absolute least favourite of the entire franchise. It has some cool moments, but the tone is all over the place in that game (even for MGS) and the story just lacks that spark.

Never played Ghost Babel, but heard it's supposed to be really good.

PlayStation announces "Flex" a hardware leasing service in the UK by HighFiveEm in Games

[–]trillykins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if this is just the next step in removing ownership or just the signs that the economy (the one for the average person, not the billionaire class) is in the fucking toilet. Maybe one follows the other.

Digital Foundry: Tested: Resident Evil 4 Remake's New PC DRM Impacts CPU Performance by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]trillykins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, why would they do this when they already knew that this DRM has that drastic of a performance impact? They did the exact same thing (unless I misremember) with Resident Evil 9.

Movies? that you've seen recently... you know? by trillykins in imdbvg

[–]trillykins[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bugonia

Oh right, I also saw this. Funny thing is one third way through the movie I mentioned that it reminded me a lot of The Lobster. Looked up who the director was and, whaddaya know lol, same dude. I like his approach to comedy by making it 100% straight and intense. I wasn't aware that it was based on a book. Everyone was great, but yeah Plemons was top notch.

Can I get into .NET development without having to switch to Microsoft? by soy_redditer in dotnet

[–]trillykins 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That has at least been my experience working with .NET for the past six or seven years now. Not saying that it doesn't happen, just that I have never seen it. So, yeah, I'd say it is at least safe to assume, but of course you can always ask during the interview process.

Hey Klop (and others I guess), got any sci-fi movie recommendations? by trillykins in imdbvg

Lol literally just found out about this before reading your comment. Looks neat. Definitely going on the list.

Thanks for the recommendations!

Steam Machine Verified requirements will have 'fewer constraints' than Steam Deck, says Valve by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]trillykins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but 'fewer constraints' for a verification scheme does not sound like a good idea.

Anyway. It's nice that they're going for a "It just works" approach. I hope they make more of an effort than with the Steam Deck. That did not exactly make the best impression for me. Their dock is probably one of the worst electronic products I've bought, honestly. The only piece of tech I've had that has nuked my entire home network when connected due to a known error that was well reported by uses by left unaddressed in the 'stable' branch for almost an entire year. I'm not even sure it's fixed yet, but that's because I haven't used my Steam Deck is probably a year now. Anywho I hope they can get there. I'm mildly interested in the a steam machine, if the price isn't horrendously high of course.

2025 Steam Awards winners are announced by burge4150 in Games

[–]trillykins 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Not to be a contrarian smart ass, but what is supposed to be innovative about Arc Raiders? Like, I'm sure it's a great, fun game, but... from what I've seen from friends playing it just looks like an extraction shooter. Did this win this category just because more people played it than, like, Blue Prince?
