“Troll logic” is one of my favorite memes.

Exactly like being hit by lightning at any instant has a 50% risk because either it happens or it doesn’t.

I already don’t trust any Google result that has “AI” anywhere near it, and barely even the rest anymore.

Yes, but was this specific one a result, or was it a 5 second fake because haha meme?

I’m already pretty skeptical of “AI” in the LLM-algorithm-hell sense, but that doesn’t mean people don’t make things up for shits and giggles.

Please tell me this is fake. I need to hear these words.

I distinctly remember this joke when 2000 or ME was the most recent one.

Five… four… three…

So they’re ripping off the game that ripped them off. The industry is in an absolute state.

Yeah, well, no fucking shit, what’d they think was the point of the campaign?

These guys…

N64 is my favorite console of all time, but yeah, the controller is truly batshit insane. I even had a game that intended you to hold the left and right… prongs instead of center right. In a shocking twist, it was… still pretty awkward.

I do like PS5 controllers - mostly play N64 games on them, never even owned a PS. Used a PS4 controller before that.

Nah. The pattern is cool as hell though.

So don’t?

Dpad for games that were intended for dpad, analog if the game was intended for analog.

Analog for dpad games feels awkward in my experience, and dpad for analog games is not even an option.

This place is noticeably more anticorporate - which makes sense because corporations tend to be dicks - and leftist. Enshittification is a fairly apt term for what goes on.

What do you mean, “nowadays”? Mobile games always sucked.

Oh, no no, capitalism welcomes competition, don’t’y’know.
Just as long as it doesn’t mess with the profit margins.

Not in the very rare case where the positivity is warranted because the product is decent, appropriately priced, and not too shittified.

Maybe they could start using an engine that is more recent than the Cretaceous.

Yes - unexpectedly, on a game that’s pretty much a decade old. Modders are not expected to maintain stuff that long, because when does that ever happen?

Then it’s just… badly executed at that.

“You’re welcome” was always taught to me as the proper thing, but sounds slightly stilted. They express the same sentiment, roughly, but “[it was] no problem” is arguably clearer about it. I personally just think it’s a slightly “nicer” nuance.

Of course, sometimes maybe it actually was a problem, and then I’d only say it if going out of my way to be nice about it.
