Yup, things have definitely improved, especially with more extremist instances like lemmygrad being defederated and phased out. I do also want to give a shoutout to the devs for not pushing their stance and letting the platform grow naturally.
The second one is an older application of the first patent (pokeball again). The third one is literally just being able to mount an object or creature with some caveats like a flying one having to come down and carry you up, that one is ridiculous and a lot of games do something similar all the time.
Yes, some instances are problematic, yes, some devs might have had problematic views.
I mean that's basically the crux of it. That, and some moderation drama, and the software being very buggy a year ago giving people a bad first impression, and Lemmy still being susceptible to spam.
It'll take some time before Lemmy (and the Threadiverse as a whole) improves its reputation and moves on from the "it's a tankie website" take. That said, a lot of people in that thread are making the case for Lemmy, so it's mostly just people worried it's not as popular.
That's not exactly it. I read the description of '191 and it seems to be more like "throwing a ball to capture a character and place it in the player's possession or throwing it to release a captured character". You can see the patent drawings also depecting that, so it's basically a patent of the Pokeball.
Not a lawyer so I have no idea how it'll go in court but it does sound like Palworld infringes on this. It's kinda funny that they could've avoided this by being a bit more legally distinct, like how TemTem throws cards instead of balls.
That depends on app developers, not MS. Having apps actually work through a translation layer would ease a lot of people's problems when transitioning to ARM though.
Aside from gamers nexus, I also suggest hardware unboxed and justjosh. They're both reliable and honest.
Yeah, but that's a bizarre decision. What's the point of grinding combat if none of it carries over to the rest of the game? What's the point in going back to the starter area to grind again?
I played it for 90 minutes now and I think it's OK. It feels like an MMO that came out 20 years ago, whether that's good or bad depends on you. Lots of grinding, running back and forth, and doing fetch quests.
Some parts of the game are really nice, I love how streamlined everything is and how the map tells you exactly which resources can be found where. The game overall is very, very polished for a smaller indie MMO. That said, it feels overly simple and grindy. The first quest literally starts by telling you to come back when you're level 60, which is insane. The map is also very limited and not really open world, it's like a bunch of interconnected rooms.
The worst part is one I didn't even face yet, but everybody is saying that your character resets upon entering a new zone. That means all your skills reset back to level 1 and you don't carry over any armor or weapons or anything like that upon finishing one section of the game. The entire game is episodic, so you could grind a hundred levels in combat only to walk into episode 2 and start all over. That sounds bizarre to me. Not sure if I'll play any further.
If they did this from the start it might've sounded fine, but now it just feels like they're trend-chasing after Apple Intelligence...
I completely missed the fact that it's out, thanks for the reminder
I'm for making a megathread for people who really want to talk about it here but I genuinely don't understand why you're upset you can't talk about US politics everywhere in the platform. There are tons of communities for that. AskLemmy is for
open-ended, thought provoking questions
Instead, most US related posts are for venting and complaining. See these communities instead:
And dozens of similar communities on other instances. It's not censorship to ask you to go to use the proper channels, not everyone here wants to see US news everywhere.

This is Furukawa. At today's Corporate Management Policy Briefing, we announced that Nintendo Switch software will also be playable on the successor to Nintendo Switch. Nintendo Switch Online will be available on the successor to Nintendo Switch as well. Further information about the successor to Nintendo Switch, including its compatibility with Nintendo Switch, will be announced at a later date.
Also, what a day to be casually posting this haha
