This shit rubs me the wrong way, dude. Everybody gets rushed into taking pictures with each other at these events and I don’t think that’s justification to smear someone’s reputation by connecting them to Elon Musk.
Because most images I don't want to tap on anyway. I use it more often to track news stories per my hobbies rather than to look at memes/pics/porn. I don't need the news story thumbnail taking up so much of the screen that I can only see one or two stories at a time.
Squenix has been running at full speed from their turn based combat roots. I don't mind turn based combat, but I also can't blame them. DMC was a very cool game and it's cool to get that guy to make your combat (although it feels more like a copy and paste than anything new or different).
What really bugs me is that the story is so heavily inspired by Game of Thrones and the combat is ripped out of DMC. That's what leads me to feel like this lacks the FF identity. It feels like they learned the wrong lessons from 15, that they think party-based and open world are no longer feasible concepts. Game of Thrones is super popular (back in 2015 when they started working on this) so lets just do everything they do.
Final Fantasy had concepts beyond the mechanics that were fairly universal game to game: a conflict between the natural world and a cyberpunk world built on top of (and killing) it. I feel like too much of the franchise's identity was lost in this, and what we got in return is a crappy knock off of Game of Thrones with Devil May Cry 5's combat stuck in it.
No problem. I just hope that soon these instances will support pulling thumbnails from the articles to give the links a richer presence here. They're all so uniform and ugly right now.
Gfycat is shutting down, sadly. There’s no money to be had in hosting pictures and videos for other sites that are viewed without ads. We already saw the Imgur clamp down a month or so ago. If these instances can’t self host the content it’s all going to have an invisible expiration date.
But I’m here because I can’t get reddit content anymore in the format I want to consume it. I didn’t have an issue with the content of reddit, just the owners.
Registering to all instances with the same username/password is just asking for trouble. They’re not all equal and some of them will get hacked somehow.
They did dozens of successful trips to the Titanic, but for some reason people only wanna talk about the time they accidentally cooked and pancaked the CEO
