Honestly… Ya, literally any extra steps in signing up or slight bit of confusion is enough to make the average person give up and go back to whatever platform they are comfortable with. I’ve talked to people who dispise twitter but won’t even switch to Bluesky because the extra dot in the user handle is too weird for them.

I mean when you’re in an echo chamber this intense it’s natural to lash out. I kind of expected something like that to pop up eventually.

“sometimes it’s wildly wrong and they don’t question where it comes from”

A stark difference from google results surely

Ok, but they should logically be afraid of causing it. The only reason not to be afraid of the end of the world is if you’re going to the good afterlife.

I never got the chance to play Bloodborne because of Sony but I’ve heard its the best one. I did play through their other games after Elden Ring came out, and i wouldn’t say the problem is always the player. Fromsoft does an absolutely abismal job telling new players where to go and how to play. Elden Ring especially just expects that you already have experience with the series and that you’re going to have the wiki open on your second monitor to follow a basic questline. Personally i just dont understand that philosophy.

Videogames that intentionally break their difficulty curve with the intention of seeming elite and prestigious. I’ve suspected for a long time that games like Darksouls and Kingdom Come deliberately try to manipulate their players into getting caught in sunk cost falacies, trying to get people to blame themselves for any failure of game balancing.

Over time they’ve fostered communties which are so toxic that they will lash out at anyone trying to criticize the game. This then frees the developer from all fault and casts any grievance as the players lack of understanding, skill, or hardware. Eventually, any mistake the devs make becomes seen as an artistic choice and will be defended tooth and nail by the players.

Ya and if memory serves i think he clawed his own eyes out and committed suicide after finding out.

Hey no worries dude, thanks for considering how I’d feel.

If it matters, i wasn’t trying to be rude on my original comment either. I was genuinely asking the question. Its tough to convey tone online…

I looked it up, a cycle refers to disconnected body of works that cover the same event such as the siege of Troy. A series refers to a linear body of works that cover different events, such as Dune and most other modern books.

So ya everyone downvoting me is straight up wrong. The op was wrong, and also I was wrong. Go figure.

Dune “cycle”? Is that what people are calling it? Like its an impactful series sure but has Herbert really reached the level of Homer?

Or is there some other reason?

Does anyone know the name of the number with that many zeroes?

Thats awesome! Do they offer the whole catalogue?

You bet! It’s even better if you have a braindead job like I do, then you can spend all day learning and getting paid for it.

Paying the subscription for The Great Courses is absolutely insane value if its something you use regularly. Its not a credit system like Audible, its literally unlimited streaming of university level courses for 20$ a month (or like 12$ if you pay annually). The individual courses can cost upwards of 100$ so even if you only take one course every two months you still haven’t lost money.

It’s infinite learning, i cant shill hard enough.

How was it?

So does Nintendo like control Japanese distribution policy or something?
