Works fine on PC with an ad blocker and at least there you aren’t relying on YouTube keep any promises.

On the other hand exclusives really just make everyone else who isn’t so easy to manipulate hate your platform.

Name one category of tasks that you would feel confident it can perform with at least a 90% success rate.

So good in fact that apple spawned a whole new category of memes making fun of how badly that works.

I mean they literally came out and said that they hate empathy.

Well, at 2 years it is probably older than at least one other game.

“easily”, I guess console players are used to the pain.

Not sure about Lemmy but I think on Reddit it used to be called 13 or 30, not 14 or 40.

Dwarf Fortress (old style ASCII mode) is a good one after buying a new graphics card.

It has become a sort of tradition for me to play some sort of game that really doesn’t need the performance as the first game on any new computer I get.

Would you rather doom scroll on a device that can’t even run Doom or doom scroll wearing Doctor Doom’s mask?

Maybe but I don’t see that as an argument that will be compelling to many of the less involved parents. Most people don’t even see how their own data can be used to harm them, much less data on how their kids behave in games.

Considering how much control Apple tries to exert over how you use your devices that does seem pretty close to the truth.

Let me be the first to send a “thank you” in return to the people who always advocate for Matrix and similar open source alternatives on here without acknowledging that performance, UI and on-boarding with those are just absolutely awful compared to Discord, and that is not because performance and UI on Discord are great.

Yeah, tried Matrix a few time and it is honestly just unusable, even for myself, never mind convincing other people to join it.

And if it was about being the most recognizable I might agree but the influence on other games or even media in general was relatively limited.

Minecraft might be a good contender in terms of spawning the survival genre and also having so many mods used to pioneer entirely new game modes and even having a major part in machinima and Let’s Plays and such things on Youtube.

Apart from a few rather mediocre movies and a few orchestras playing the theme tune what did you have in mind there?

But Palworld is still literally one of maybe half a dozen other games remotely like Pokemon.

But it barely influenced any other games. The genre of creature collector games in this style is quite small.
