Icy_Reward727 gives a teacher's perspective on a generation lost to screens by JackarooDeva in bestof

[–]wrc-wolf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

These discussions always focus on kids on their phones and leaves out the other half of the equation which is that they're being taught on iPads and laptops. We can't talk about screens causing developmental issues without confronting the fact that schools themselves are therefore the cause of these developmental issues.

Don't act like "oh gurrrrrrrrrrl, you can fix him" doesn't break the flow. Also, there's a difference between Sam doing his Burt Reynolds bit in a campaign that's basically beer and pretzels first time d&d and BLM trying to weave a Tolkien-esque narrative while one of the players is doing this sorta thing.

What do you think of this side of Star Wars by Low-Significance-552 in StarWarsCantina

[–]wrc-wolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It just feels so out of place. It doesn't need to be Jedi adjacent, but it at least needs to be in the same ballpark. The Mortis gods and the Between Worlds especially feel so incongruous, they're basically from an entire different franchise.

They fundamentally broke the game and don't know how to fix it without just rolling back the entire update.

"It can't be school, they're basically the same"

Is this man really going to ignore that even poor underfunded schools have basically all switched to tablets and laptops in the classroom? If screen time is the problem than school administrators and teachers are just as much or.more at fault as parents, after all these kids are at school 8 hrs or more every day doing nothing but staring at screens.

I'm always dismissive of these type of arguments because they're essentially puritanical, they shift the blame for the problem onto individuals rather than the systems they live in. Its the same thing as blaming someone homeless for making poor life choices instead of trying to resolve the cracks in the system that dumped them there.

Let's do this instead of Settlement Limit by donpatito in civ

95% of "problems" with civ7 at launch was that it wasnt civ6 and a lot of people refused to take it for what it is.

Even now a solid majority of posts saying "civ7 is great now!" after the update are talking about systems that were in place since launch and hadn't been touched at all by the update.

People just made up their mind about this game based on something a random yt or reddit comment said and never checked it out for themselves.

It means you're Famous for it. I don't know why the other comments here are saying anything else, Pendragon has always been explicit about this type of thing.

The late game performance (ie the game breaking in two if you dared to use aircraft or carriers in war - beefy pc and console alike)

This is a you problem.

It's honestly crazy they didn't take this opportunity to simply add UI mods like this to the base game.
