Yeah, I feel exactly the same. I am hoping there is much more content and map once the game releases. They do intend to do events from what I understand but have no idea what else is in store.

I think the biggest criticism is the pricing, not the existence of the cash shop. It is using the Apple model versus the Walmart model of pricing targeting the whales which is probably more profitable. Like you said, it does not impede gameplay at all though it is always somewhat concerning to see such an emphasis on a cash shop for a product that is still in beta. I will continue to play and see how it goes.

When you’re leaving a parking spot and backing out all the same logic applies that these bozos use to justify backing in

I agree that attacking someone for their opinion is just silly but I honestly do not agree with this statement. People, and more importantly pedestrians, know what you are doing when you are backing into a spot and are therefore less likely to walk behind you. This is not the case when backing out of a spot. They might not even know someone is in the vehicle. Add in little kids running out of nowhere. You have a lot better situational awareness while backing in versus backing out since your field of view is not obstructed by up to three sides by cars. I do not think the difference is catastrophic by any means but, to me at least, there is a difference.

If anything my char feels more powerful now. I have a much easier time blowing through side dungeons and such.

The web is federated in theory but that does not stop the larger companies from monopolizing the traffic. Think of Reddit, Google, etc. as a federated instance of the WWW.

It really comes down to the degree. Someone could spend significantly less to get an IT related degree and start out making more than what your wife currently makes with, probably, a much better work life balance. That person could easily double that in a few years.

Honestly, we simply do not value health care and teachers as much as we should.

NTA, you are just using the tools available to you to excel at your job. I am sure you have heard the saying by now "You will may not be replaced by AI but you will be replaced by someone who uses AI".

Soon, anti AI people will be seen similarly to those who refuse to use computers.

There was a period where you could not find the 3000 series NVidia cards unless you went prebuilt. Other than that, I agree, always built all my machines after my first 286.

Odd that they mention the Switch release before PC though where it is still in alpha.

Glad to see this is finally coming out soon. Palia has been on my radar now for a year or so.

I think this is where I lucked out when I had so many issues creating an account on lemmy.world. I ended up making an account at thelemmy.club instead and it seems I can see and respond to all content from here so far.

I would like to know how they managed to register. I tried since Monday, kept getting the spinning circle on the Submit button, and finally created an account on another server.
