I’m Portuguese we don’t use many acronyms, but we have shorter versions of words with the vowels removed or things like that. When people tried to use acronyms we ended up with “fds” which some people read as weekend, others read as “fuck it”. The only other acronyms I can think of right now are all for offenses such as fdp (son of a bitch) and cdf (“ass of iron”, very old term for calling someone a nerd).

Curiosity is the best trait nature ever gave us.

I wonder how that’s going. When the devs started they were clearly overpromising things that they thought would be cool to have without any idea of how long it would take to implement them. I always suspected it would remain in development for many many years, but apparently it’ll be playable next year.

I also can’t picture anything in my mind either. It’s like a different language that is based on feelings instead of words. You know when you move next to a fire and you feel hot? You don’t need any words to feel hot, right? It’s kinda like that. I would open the drawer and feel a “this isn’t right” feeling.

It’s like an instinct. You get the meaning behind the words without the words needing to be there.

No words here at all. I generally don’t use words for thinking unless I’m trying to think of a sentence or something like that.

I think they just did some camera trick to cut out most of the travel time and not make the movie longer.

I was pretty much the opposite lol. Really loved the quest system on the first one and strongly disliked the cast of the second. The third is generally my favorite.

I got xenogears as a kid who didn’t even speak English after returning a non-functional Medievel 2 and picking xenogears as a replacement simply because it was more expensive and I realized the salesman at the store wouldn’t check the price as long as I was trading one game by another. I didn’t understand most of the game but I still fell in love with it back then. To this day it is still the first game I think of when someone ask me what my favorite is.

I played it last year and got soft locked in the main quest about 15 hours in, but only realized after another 10 hours of side quests. Usually I wouldn’t start over but in the game I gladly did.

I deleted all my comments last year. Recently I got a notification for a response in one of such comments. When I clicked the notification link, my comment and the response were visible. The comment doesn’t show up in my profile.

I want that wallpaper.

Because it wasn’t a game, it was a gamified data collection app. If someone actually wanted to make a game with this concept, it could turn out well, but that was never Niantic’s intention.

I was afraid I was too old and people wouldn’t even know games used to do this.

I just had a revolutionary idea: what if every time you reach a new point in a game, it showed you a certain sequence of icons related to that point in the game. Then, if you ever want to play that part of the game again you can just insert that same sequence of icons into an option of the game and it’ll play from there.

Then people could also share the sequences they discover with their friends, allowing said friends to skip part of the game if they want to.

When New World came out, ignoring all the other issues, a lot of the people who were playing it really wanted mounts. They said it was absurd the game didn’t have it. I missed being able to move faster too, but just by looking at the game I could tell that the only thing stopping me from getting to max level in three days was that it took time to go from point from the quest givers to the quest locations and then back. If it had mounts that would completely break the progression and they would need to make us have to kill a lot more enemies or collect a lot more items to complete quests or get exp.

I heard they added mounts in a recent update. I wonder how they ended up doing it. A couple years later getting to the end game pretty quick is probably no longer an issue so they may have done nothing.

How many of the last 10 games you bought were from Microsoft?

Any time I log with my Microsoft account on a Windows computer it also butchers my name and uses just some letters from it when creating folders and stuff like that. It’s something that is stored somewhere only this specific action reads from, but it’s happening for over a decade already with no idea how to fix.

Between that and the fact that windows now creates the Documents folder inside of OneDrive directly and gets all messed up if you move it out, I ended up buying windows Pro just to get back to an offline account.

Thanks!

I haven’t used the windows search since forever, but if I ever need it again I’ll keep this is mind if I see the web results still bothering me.
