Poorly received games with tons of other venues of monetization outside the box price.

For it to work well the developer has to change the game's design to allow for the easier mode to work. If they don't, it wouldn't offer a good experience for neither the easy mode nor hard mode players.

That's pretty much like saying to a person to watch a let's play of the game rather than play, which is fine but not really the point.

Good example. I also feel like vegetarianism is probably correct, but I still haven't gone that way.

I'm glad you are like that, but dometimes people want to be convinced of the opposite side but haven't been able to, yet.

From a purely financial view, they don't. There's a reason why games have become as handholdy as possible. And one of the reasons why the Souls series stood out was because it went in a different direction.

I'm not sure how the impending climatic doomsday is going to make human rights unimportant?

Maybe? I feel like the developers have the prerogative to decide to include it or not, but with the way the discourse has gone it certainly feels like I'm in the wrong here.

I thought about it a bit when making this post and I felt like not giving an example would make people come with crazy political opinions which would probably be a bad time. Maybe it still wasn't the best approach, admittedly.

I don't particularly find the acessibility argument that compelling. Sure, we must make experiences as acessible as possible, but at a certain point the experience gets degraded by it. You can't make a blind person see a painting, and if you did, it wouldn't be a painting.

Yes, but by that same argument if the experience doesn't work for you as it was intended, perhaps the game isnt for you.

Not that arguing this point is the question here anyway.

Summoner class going to eat good. Guess I'll do another playthrough of terraria.

If Twitter is any indication, Discord would have to fuck up big, and for a long time for people to switch.

Your explanation ignores the root cause of the issue. People stayed home because the Democrats and Kamala failed to motivate them to go.

The thing is that they are deliberately hiding it's part 1 of 2.

Funny to post that on a lemmy.world account lol

If you are not engaging in political posts or are not a hardcore liberal, you'd be hard pressed to find a problem.

Niches really need a way to advertise themselves and then congregate in one place. It's a bit sad to see two communities for the same thing in different instances and neither get the critical mass of posters needed to survive.

You'll realise just how little people will make do with. And how much lower what you considered a terrible standard of living can be.

One aspect I feel is never talked about is that setting up the debugging more often than not takes you out of the mental space of the problem you are trying to solve. A console log is basically there already in many cases.
