I've never really thought about it this way. Good point.

Better than writing beginner level crap that is at the same time super cryptic and not documenting at all. We have a bunch of that in our codebase and it makes me wonder why these devs are writing extension methods for functionality already built into the standard libraries.

It's not just your memory. The devs for the definitive edition have been working to remake the navigation subsystem for some fuckall reason. It gets progressively worse every patch.

The original pathfinding was much better and felt more fluid and responsive.

They are already changing a few of my favorite things about the original version of AoM so some wind is already out of my sails. I hope they don't unnecessarily change things for the sake of change and make it worse.

Not world news, but I'll make an exception. Sleep well, puppers.

I don't understand how it is so hard for people to clean up after themselves. Our parks and trails in the US are filthy. There is trash on the ground and garbage cans 10 feet away.

It is really sad that they had to erect this barrier, but it is laughable that people can't respect nature when the entire purpose of their visit is to admire it.

Read the article. This is not a US product.

I agree with you though.

I'd prefer to call him a scam artist. He is really good at taking credit for other people's work.

The first game is still loaded with bugs to this day. I had no faith in a second game, and this news does it no favors.

You know they aren't paying their employees $275,000/year average. There is way more to that number than just letting go 600 employees.

Banished is a low bar. It had a lot of issues. I would argue the recently released Farthest Frontier is a better comparison. It also has some flaws but is leaps and bounds better than Banished.

Because recycling plants are far and few between with many requiring you to be a resident to use the facilities. Many also charge for each piece brought in. They are also only open on weekdays when people have to work.

Recycling electronics and metals is good on paper, but there is very much a service problem.

I may be misunderstanding how it all works, but the venues choose the ticket service, not the artists.

As someone with dry mouth and both a mouth guard and a CPAP I can say with confidence that a CPAP is more comfortable for me. By definition a mouth guard is objectively more invasive since it goes in your body.

Odd. Every Tesla I see on the road is going 20 under the speed limit.

I remember when the exact opposite was true. Their drivers were awful and their GPUs consistently overheated.

I am glad to see things change. Competition is always a good thing.

Most of these changes are welcome. The Swashbuckler change feels weird since it removes some strategy. Joker positioning is actually important and fun, so removing effects that enforce that mechanic is a little sad for me.

Guaranteeing a joker booster pack in the first store is a very necessary change since RNG on even getting a joker has screwed more than one run for me, but at the same time it almost feels like a required purchase which indicates some sort of design flaw.

These are the same assholes who sound like a jackhammer when they walk in apartments.

Do NOT blame the devs for this. They are not the ones to decide the direction of the product or the priority of the tickets they work. Blame upper management for making these poor decisions and the product managers for being spineless and not pushing back.

These clowns still not realizing that wealth and trickle economics are mutually exclusive. By definition wealth is the hoarding of resources beyond one's necessities. One does not get wealthy by releasing their wealth.

These people will not make more jobs. They will reduce the number of jobs, pay less and expect more, and hoard the extra wealth created by the hard work of their workers.

This past year tech companies have reported record profits while also seeing one of the highest layoff counts in years.
