I literally sold the consoles I had and all my games with it because games became shittier each year.

Imagine having to pay 80+ dollars/euros for a game that isnt even the "finished" product.

I'd rather just save my money and spend it on things where I don't get absolutely railed as a consumer.

I wear it because the gear is mostly just very creative and oozing with flair.

It gives an enormous amount of flair to your wardrobe and I love the designs that companies come up with these days.

Resident Evil 5.

Sheva is a badass.

1 set of games that felt ahead of their time were Pokemon Gold/Silver and Crystal.

They had so many interesting mechanics that (for some reason) were not introduced in the later games that it almost feels like robbery.

• Day/night time switch with corresponding pokemon. I remember you could encounter night specific pokemon and also daytime pokemon in the night who were fast asleep when starting the battle.
• Two regions in 1 game.
• End boss as Red in MT silver
• Rematches with trainers.
• Pokewatch system overall
• Hapiness system for Eevee evolutions
• The encounter system for suicuine, Entei and Raikou
• Pokemon crystal with the Battle tower.
• Moving sprites in pokemon crystal.

Probably even more, but for me it is still the best designed pokemon game to date and really ahead of it's time.

It also felt like one of the last games that was oozing with the passion that the developers put in it.

Decoupling from Reddit has been easier than I thought.

Am actually rotating between Lemmy instances and Kbin to read the articles and thoughts in between my workday and it works like a charm.

It also really helps that I pavlovd myself to associate Reddit with garbage and instantly make the connection to how they see and treat their userbase.

It made me open reddit only once during the last days.

• To run PDS after the blackout.

I also really hate this.

Literally freeloading of the work of developers for their mod tooling.

How incredibly tone deaf can one be.

Crying that 3rd party apps make money and the time of "freeloading" is over only to try to literally freeload on the applications of 3rd parties.

Reddit can still and again just fudge off.

Smart idea.

Reddit will jack the prices again when they see fit.

Reddit also wins with this pricing because they are gonna pocket the cash.

Reddit will limit 'Recommend' and NFSW content to its official app. >

And ohw yeah you are gonna get less content for your subscription. It is all in bad faith.

Then the people who still use Reddit can leave or accept the changes.

I expect the people who actually gave a beeswax are long gone than already at that point, so the community can then shout into the void if they would disagree.

After slandering the Apollo Dev, Steve now starts to slander the entire userbase.

I am gonna be honest but instances going down and losing communities could have the same probability as Reddit shutting down Subreddits just because they feel like it.

I understand your concern, but I think it would first be wise to let some communities flourish and look how it holds up in the grand scheme of things.

Which is ridiculous.

Insane that they effectively send 3rd party apps to the shadow realm only to accommodate the "free" things that will benefit them.

Imagine effectively calling 3rd party apps freeloaders in the process.

How ironic.

That is awesome.

First thing I do when the blackout is over is export my history, edit my comments, delete my acc and buh bye Reddit forever.
