Daffy Finn Sim my summer cottage

What are these words

[–] GammaGames@beehaw.org 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Good question, I looked it up:

dafty Finn sim My Summer Cottage

dafty is a slang term used in the UK, particularly in Scotland and Northern England, to describe a person who acts silly or foolish.

The rest is because the premise is based on an earlier simulator game (by a different developer afaik) My Summer Car, which also takes place in Finland (though that is the 1990s)

I thought it was a play on the Japanese series My Summer Vacation, lol

Ah, should've known it was the UK again...

My Summer Cottage is the name of the game, which I imagine is some kind of Finnish Life Sim?

I can't wait.
Finally a good alternative to Roblox.

[–] nik282000@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Honestly, I have no fucking clue what Roblox even looks like. I have been hearing about it for years but not a single forum post or article has ever had a screenshot.

It sucks tbh.
I remember:
Moderation problems(even the CEO of roblox started being accused of being a pedophile because he wouldn't fix the problem, and allowing one of the weird people to a event and i think the event is cancelled,and even displaying the weird people on a game and later removing them), 90% of the games being copies of existing ones (most of the 10% is original but basic concept),axing core features of roblox(replacing faces and forcing realistic characters),being accused of child labour(for being a "childrens website" and them taking 30%),accused of hiring third world people for their Moderation,Forced AI(LLM),axing Linux to implement a anticheat(should be a red-flag tbh), Corporate greed?(removing lifetime builders club),etc.
Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

It runs does not mean it supports it. So we need to see how this turns out in the future. The compatibility could break with future requirements and changes. I'm just worried because Garry is not a very Linux friendly.

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)
