FromSoftware doesn’t really do extra.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Politics@beehaw.org•Oklahoma high schools to teach 2020 election conspiracy theories as factEnglish5·2 months agoOh I’ve been there for 30 or so years now. It is and isn’t unfortunate I guess. Just sometimes I feel like a contrarian asshole around people. I usually just have to keep my mouth shut and opinions to myself.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Politics@beehaw.org•Oklahoma high schools to teach 2020 election conspiracy theories as factEnglish8·2 months agoI don’t know a ton about the religion. I always kinda rejected it when we were forced to go. From my understanding without doing any research right now… Basically it’s their version of the rapture. 150k or so of their “chosen” disciples will get into heaven and the rest are said to have heaven on earth. Which the “worldly” people (as my grandmother referred to them, people outside of Jdub’s) would be wiped off the planet. So not far from other crazy Christian fantasies, just with the added flair of shunning your own family members if they leave the organization.
terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Politics@beehaw.org•Oklahoma high schools to teach 2020 election conspiracy theories as factEnglish14·2 months agohahaha so accurate. I was born without fingers and grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness. They’d tell me I’d have fingers once the “new system” comes along with all this other made up garbage. Parent’s divorced around age 13, mom got dis-fellowshipped and shunned. Once I was old enough to take Earth Science and learn about the universe and age of everything. Something finally clicked like, “oh they’re all full of shit.”
Never looked back. I guess the unfortunate side effect is, I don’t believe in anything at all anymore.

terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft has created an AI-generated version of QuakeEnglish3·3 months agoPeople don’t even look at AI generated photos for more than a second. “Oh neat, next.” SO much wasted electricity for instant garbage. One decent AI image has probably a 100+ shitty ones that are just wasting GPUs and hard drive space. When those drives are full and old they dump them and then fill up some more. A mountain of invisible shit wasting our resources.

The only negative opinions I care about for gaming usually come from Stephanie Sterling, because she’s pretty much right every time.

terrrmus@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Voice actors speak out on AI in video gamesEnglish3·4 months agoSteam requires devs to place it right before the system requirements if they use it. Pretty big print, pretty easy to find. You can see it plain as day on the Black Ops 6 page.

Edit. Got it set up and configured. So far I’m liking it a lot.

Spider-Man 1, 2, Miles Morales & Dragonage: Veilguard also deserve to be mentioned. I’ll buy a game on launch at full price if it’s not loaded down with bullshit or shoving the rest of the game behind a paywall. Otherwise I’ll just be a patient gamer and get it in a few years cheaper and patched up.
