I agree, I don't think people realise how early into this tech we are at the moment. There are going to be huge leaps over the next few years.

This is a genuine question from a European, what does make it difficult to move here?

The game is great and the learning curve can be tricky, but it has a whole load of scenarios which gradually ramp up the difficulty and introduce new concepts to help you learn how to play. I'd highly recommend checking out the game!

Europe doesn't set all the rules at the EU level, this type of thing was probably law in many EU countries before it was law at the EU level.

I'm curious who the target market for this is. When buying your own system you typically want to get the best performance for your money, and with the Apple tax included you're always going to be paying a lot more for similar specs to something you can build yourself.

Honestly there's like three or four which post a lot, if you just block the ones you see and it'll make a huge difference very quickly.

I blocked all of those repost bots a few months ago, and it really improved the experience for me. No longer are there seemingly interesting posts but with 0 engagement, with the real OP not even on Lemmy. It feels a lot more organic.

I competed it literally yesterday. It took me 28 hours in total and I'd say I had a similar experience to you that I really enjoyed the concept but I wanted it to be finished quite a few hours before I actually completed it. Also, if you made it to the glacier area then you weren't far from the end.

I'd recommend Deep Rock Galactic to anyone, it's a really great game and a lot of fun, especially with friends. For me I'd love to try Barotrauma, the concept really appeals to me but in the classic patient gamer style it's never quite become cheap enough for me to outright purchase.

Thanks for being so generous with this! I've been meaning to try out Returnal for a while now so that would be awesome to get. Something that made me very happy this year was my dog. We got him just over a year ago as a puppy and I'll be honest it was pretty tough at the beginning, puppies are a lot of work and he's a stubborn little boy, but this year he's just got progressively better and better and it makes all the work we put in at the beginning so worth it.

Hope you all have a great Christmas and New Year!

Not directly relevant to your post I thought your post was culturally interesting. I live in the UK, and a pub pint will ALWAYS be what you listed as imperial pints. I believe it is illegal to call it a pint and it not be that size. I'm surprised how small the American pub pints are in comparison.

For people who are interested in the context, it was a student living at uni who moved home again during the COVID lockdowns. Once they'd lifted they came back to the flat to see this.
