  • When fallout 4 was in development, Bethesda had to crunch and have non-developers who had little to no experience in the engine (like writers) work in the creation kit to flesh out the rest of the game. This led to many quests being implemented entirely separate from each other with little to no input from other teams or staff members and is a major reason why fallout 4 base game feels so disjointed once you actually start exploring it.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if they had to do the same thing with starfield.






  • I don’t understand why people pick on tradesman as if they’re somehow lesser than them.

    There’s lots of skill and knowledge that goes along with doing any trade.

    Also, while it’s back breaking work, and you often work overtime, construction workers make bank.

    This is an aged and outdated take that devalues the contributions of a very important job.

    All jobs are skilled labor.



  • It sounds like you’d be better off with a DE or WM that isn’t gnome. The GNOME Project has been progressively sticking more and more of the customization features of the DE behind either gnome tweaks or the command line, likely to unify the experience for all users and improve the ability to provide support.

    Personally, as far as gnome-based DEs are concerned, I prefer cinnamon, but I’m fine running Mint to just have it come pre-installed. I don’t know what dependencies it pulls in now if you install it standalone from Mint.






  • Replaying AC Odyssey as Alexios. It’s weird to see angry Kassandra.

    So far I’ve been disappointed in dialogue and interactions with NPCs, even in the main story, where I expected things to change between the two characters, but the dialogue has been mostly all the same.

    But hey, I get really fun, ancient Greece ship combat. 10/10 recommend the game just for that.

    Edit: Also playing through Hades for the first time since purchasing it. I love how Supergiant put their own spin on all the Gods and Demi-Gods while keeping them mostly true to their depictions in Greek myth.
