Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Nope. Over a decade of anti-consumer practices or churning out broken and unfinished cash grabs vaguely disguised as games have convinced me that pretty much every AAA dev studio and major publisher don't deserve my money. I've been more than happy lately sticking to indie titles and playing games from the late 2000s or older
Exactly my take.
I'm vicariously happy for anyone from the generations after mine getting into Ocarina of Time for their first playthrough, but I'm personally more interested in getting the decomps to work and reliving my favorite Christmas present on my own terms
The OoT PC recomp with 3DS textures is such a great way to experience the original game.
Yeah I might get Silent Hill Townfall, but Nintendo and Rockstar can both kick rocks.
i thought GTA V had a solid single-player campaign without any cash grabs.
I don't mind a company soaking the rubes if it also has a good non-rapist-mentality mode.
Rockstar canceled the three single player dlcs to shove all that content into GTAO behind prices so inflated that you pretty much needed to pay real money for the vehicles
I played it on Steam with a VR Mod and had a good time. I woudn't pay full price for any AAA game, but I don't see a problem with a buying a game if it offers you a good experience separate from the cash grabbing.
