I feel like in some big game communities (like BG3) it looks deader than it should but if you post something you actually get quite a few replies. People are there it’s just that not everyone feels like making a new post.

Though I agree that concentrating on more generic communities for now is a good solution

My point is that if tile requires people to have the app installed to broadcast it, and I, someone that has multiple AirTags has never heard of Tile let alone have the app installed, then it’s fair to say a significant amount of the population hasn’t either so their network has major gaps.

I don’t doubt that the device itself is capable or anything. But if you aren’t apple it’s just hard to get to that critical mass of users.

Yea and I’ll tell you that Tile is far from working because I have never heard of Tile.

And I own a few AirTags myself

There are heat pumps that exchange heat with the ground. Those can function well in more extreme temperatures. Also you could/should have alternative heating methods for extreme situations even if they are much more inneficient

But 4 and 5 > 3 so 1/4 and 1/5 > 1/3 it’s actually more expensive

/s

Fuck I hate how plausible that actually is. Not what you just said ofc, I’m not an idiot, but that people will actually say that unironically

I played half of RDR2 a few months ago and as a game it is boring af. I don’t know how a game with such a bad quest design can get so much praise.

The world is gorgeous and I guess as a sandbox game there’s lot to do and even the story is alright but the quests are so boring and 80% the same. Couldn’t get myself to finish the game.

Rinse and repeat

So 3 years? How long did that take epic? About the same time almost 2 decades later?

[–] JimmyMcGill@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Yea no

People complain because the EGS launcher is shit and not getting better in any meaningful way. Plus all the anti consumer shit that they do.

EGS didn’t come out last year. Heck GOG galaxy is fairly decent and it’s not even required and they have a fraction of the budget. And guess what a lot of people like and support them.

I mean steam sucked for 8 years like 20 years ago. Technology wasn’t the same as it is. They revolutionized the pc gaming scene and I’d argue that even that Steam version was better than the current EGS version. Was it uglier? Yea maybe but it did the job. You could install, manage and launch your games, cloud saves and it wasn’t bloat or spyware. The Steam just kept getting better even if with a messy ui in some places. They do a ton of shit that generates them no direct profit but that makes using Steam a no brainer. And gamers respect and value that even if not all of them.

Heck I’m sure that they very quickly came up with a functional shopping cart at the very least.
