Yeah… I dont see this happening. Android has 99% shovelware crap. I dont see how any professional would be able to use Android instead of Windows, MacOS or Linux.

Android is garbage, and I’m saying this as an android user… The moment a serious Linux alternative is here for phones I’m gone (yes I’m aware Android is technically also “Linux”).

Just a few examples: the file system is a mess, good luck trying to easily save on network drives. There is no decent office suite and again using the files system to save documents in Android is a shitshow. There are Adobe products but they’re all watered down shitty versions of the desktop ones, the alternatives are even worse. Around every corner google tries to push it’s shitty cloud subscriptions, the telemetry is insane even compared to windows.

No Android is definitely not the future chromebooks were a mess too. And knowing Google they’ll just give up on anything they don’t seem profitable enough so even if they tried on desktop they’ll just pull the plug after 2 years.

If people complain about Linux being hard… give android a try as desktop OS it’s probably 10x worse. At least Linux comes with a decent office suite and decent networking capabilities.

The amount of greed is also insane…

Imagine having millions of dollars (or billions) and having enough that even the next 3 generations of your offspring wont have to work and still wanting more.

That is why the rich need to be taxed…

“Wait, you mean to tell me that growth is finite?”

Dinosaur shareholders probably.

Are you sure it wasn’t the Romans in 27BC who were to blame?

I usually went Arena first in the OG oblivion, leveled up my character as much as possible (as perfect as possible) and then started doing quests. It was a nice controlled environment to level combat skills in. I was high level but never encountered any major problems at that point. I mean sure… if i only focused on blade (and maxed it to 100) and suddenly started using bow and arrow (which is at 15 or 20) then i’d have a bad time but thats how Morrowind did it too. Arguably even worse in Morrowind lol, god i hated that you could miss swings (but at the time i guess a lot of RPG’s worked that way). But if i went into the world immediately and just started doing quests i was screwed since its almost impossible to level perfectly in an uncontrolled environment.

What i really like about the remaster is that i can just start doing quests immediately without having to worry about ruining my character. I feel I have much more control of how I want to build my character now, in the original i felt i had to play by a playbook for leveling and when i was high lvl enough i could finally start enjoying the game.

I have a VR headset. Going from 16GB to 64GB was a huge difference in most games

This is why rock paper shotguns sucks ass and I never take their articles seriously.

Bethesda DID fix the leveling system in the remasters. The problem was not the level scaling, it was the fact you had to train every single major skill perfectly or else you would miss out on points and become underpowered compared to the enemies which have leveled with you. So if you leveled wrongly you would have anywhere between 5? To 10 points ti spend and if you did correctly you had more… the remaster fixes this by always giving you the max amounts of points to spend each level you gain.

I can spend an entire paragraph explaining why but this article Probably does it better

Is just treat any US and UK news outlet as the Onion these days.

Its pretty idiotic too. What’s the point in having a karma system if you’re just going to ban anyone who you disagree with.

Yeah but at least the platform is decentralised meaning you can still move your stuff to a better instance.

On reddit you can do no such thing. Lemmy is definitely not perfect but still miles better than reddit.

A dealership (or that’s how it works here) is obligated to sell x amount of cars (usually same brand or at least same group). They will just be sent the cars whether they sell them or not. So in a worst case scenario the franchise ends up with shitty cars no one wants and has to dump them on the market for shit prices.

The result is often that cost of maintaining a vehicle at a dealership is through the roof because they don’t have a healthy margin on new cars (or even lose money on them).

They also have very idiotic requirements at times to even become a dealer. Although supposedly they have loosened requirements and rules since no one wanted to be a dealership anymore here.

As far as remasters go I think it’s pretty good.

Don’t expect a 2025 game in terms of mechanics and level design. For it’s time Oblivion was a very good game. This is a polished version of the original with updated graphics and somewhat modernised combat and movement. They ironed out a lot of clunky mechanics and bugs too.

As far as remasters go the GTA ones were absolute dogwater just like warcraft 3 remastered. This one is very good and imo comparable with the command and conquer remasters.

I dont think they could have done much more without making the game completely different.

Yeah, even here in Europe most places that sell cars gave up their dealerships.

It’s a shitty business model that makes no sense for the owner.

But how else are they going to convince simple minded people that can’t do any critical thinking?

They don’t want people to use it. They want Google to give them a big bag of money so they can integrate it into chrome.

But how will my simple mind keep up with more than one simple sentence?

I just bought it so I guess ill find out. It’s a great game regardless whether they fixed it or not. I can always go archer or sword.

Yeah that’s probably it. I remember the scaling being awful if you didn’t spend all points perfectly each level. They must have fixed it since i don’t seen anyone complaining about it.

I’ll check some videos this weekend when there is more known about it. I’m looking forward to playing it again though.

So did they fix the magic system? One of my biggest problems with the original was that magic was near pointless. After like 30 levels magic felt like throwing rocks at a tank.

Yeah stop giving fucking morons like this attention.

That’s the main problem in the world right now. Smart and genuine people are completely ignored and loud morons get all the attention.

“Hmmm what should we make an article about today? This scientist that found a cure to a rare disease, this philanthropist that saved thousands?” “Nah let’s write an article about this batshit insane moron that keeps screaming bigoted and racist things”

Making people angry = views/clicks Making people happy = no one cares
