I’m basing my analysis on the observable trend that incumbents lose when the economy is poor. As well as, y’know, Biden’s abysmal poll numbers after the debate, the reason he dropped out in the first place.
You’re the one who started insisting incumbent advantage would’ve been a thing here, where’s your crystal ball?
Encumbant advantage? In this economic climate, it’s exactly the opposite. People who are feeling increasingly fed up with a world in which they cannot make ends meet vote against the status quo.
4 years of Trump got people to vote against Trump. 4 years of Biden got people to vote against his VP.
Biden himself would lost even harder than Kamala did.
I’m much more scared of Trumpism than I am of the man. The next guy is taking notes on how to wield his rhetoric, and will actually be competent at pushing through even greater evil.
Splatoon 3 had the Splatoween Fest over the weekend. Same as last year’s event, just a typical Splatfest but with some spooky aesthetics added.
Some games I’m excited enough for to want to spend full price on release. Some games I’ll wait for a sale on. Just depends on the game.
Well, I’ve been trying to put some content on !fgc@lemmy.world and !mahjong@lemmy.nerdcore.social, but there’s been almost no engagement. I can’t imagine it’d be worth even trying to start communities for even more niche topics than that.
Clicking the “Create a Community” button doesn’t magically spawn an audience of people who share my hobbies and want to post about them.
Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2 got a remaster a few years back.
The problem is that Apple has become increasingly hostile towards developers, I’ve heard plenty of horror stories from devs in recent years. Refusing to support Vulkan is an especially boneheaded decision, expecting anyone to support Metal is just creating unnecessary friction.
I don’t support pirating anything that is readily accessible. I’ve never touched Yuzu or Ryujinx.
But I also think it’s important that these projects are developed sooner rather than later, before the things we want preserved disappear. Later is too late. Some Switch titles already have been delisted, but we’ve saved them thanks to these efforts.
Good showcase, but feels a bit strange not to use an actual handheld game for the LCD comparisons.
Strongly recommend playing Earthbound before Mother 3. Mother 1 is entirely skippable, I’ve tried to play it multiple times and never could get through it.
Percentage-based damage doesn’t make you struggle more with more health, it just means a few attacks take the same number of hits to kill. You’re never any worse for it, and you’re still better against every other attack in the game.
Also, I said evasion anyway, not health.
You lost me at the first panel.
I’m not seeing a link. Missingno.'s sprite is just the graphics decompression routine attempting to parse data from elsewhere in the ROM due to a wrong pointer, this obviously can’t be concept art for that sprite. The idea that they might’ve considered making it canon in later generations is far too unlikely as well, we know they hated that this glitch got found and never ever ever would’ve wanted to acknowledge it.
The article’s conjecture is just “it’s blocky and it has writing on it, and if you squint really hard, you could pretend writing is like glitchy pixels.” Too much of a stretch.
I have heard a lot of good things. I’ll probably start on it whenever I finally finish Persona 4 Golden.
I recognize the importance of Proton to bridge the gap and bring users over who would never switch if they can’t play all their Windows games.
But I won’t ever agree that Proton should just replace proper native support.
If you want to “do everything you can to win”, step one is not running the guy who was borderline incoherent in the debates. Staying by that would’ve been shooting yourself in the leg.
Did we watch the same debate here? There was never any advantage coming out of that one.
