Thanks for everything Jeff, will follow you in what ever you do.

@cikame: Some really cool shots in there.

@apewins:

Twitter is weird as hell and it seems like everybody has their own way of using it. Personally i have used it for years as kind of a RSS substitute. In other words getting "news", if there has been one thing that the shithole has done well its deliver current events in real time.

So in my case im not a US based citizen, which means by following people like Austin Walker former GB staff or someone like Laura K Buzz who is a British trans woman working in games media. By following those two alone i have gathered so much info about race and gender that i would literally never have if i wasn't in that Twitter bubble.

Over the last 8-9 years i have grown a lot in aspects that deal with foreign politics, war, gender, race. All these things delivered raw from ordinary people around the globe with no filter. That's what i always liked about it.

Zero, i get that it can be a great tool for communication and making small groups.

But my main gripe about discord is that so much content has gone from forum/boards to Discord. Its not searchable and its not archived. So if and when Discord vanishes a lot of knowledge goes with it.

Oh yeah the dude who had a journalist assassinated. I saw a real nice take on Twitter from a real hardcore gamer. It went something like "Yeah so what if he had a person killed, sometimes you gotta break some eggs".

As long as gamer´s get their video games, whats a few lives.

No, 60 hours in and haven't engaged with crafting. Turtles killed: 0.

@rorie:

There is also a beta framerate mod out, but haven't bitten the bullet on that one.

All hires on GB have been good, and they all felt like a big loss when they eventually moved on.

@cikame: Jeff Grubb would be proud.

Not really, I have been working throughout the pandemic I'm in healthcare. But I was kind of burn out on games before it hit, but it has nothing to do with pandemic it self, more just the state of "gaming" in general. All the negative press a lot of Publishers and Dev companies are getting because of creepy gross assholes in those work spaces.

Along with the feeling that most of the game coming out feels like the same games I have played a 100 times over. Graphics and sequels are no longer a thing that will keep me excited.

So my gaming habits have bee completely reworked over the last two years. Started playing games I would never have done, and recently after finishing my first Metroid game (Dread), I got the urge to seek out that series as they where never on my radar. Which means that I have no finished Zero Mission, and started playing Super Metroid.

So yeah, dunno. Shits fucked.
