With Minecraft, there isn't even a need for Microsoft to do anything. The authentication servers experience regular periods of downtime/inaccessibility, making you unable to join a…

You are arguing with a bad-faith throwaway account

Awesome game! I guess that makes the first (and probably the last) game I've played in that genre. Completed the collection in about 2 hours. Would like to know how many math probl…

Why is this flagged? These numbers in the middle of otherwise innocuous comment stand out like a sore thumb

Slay the Princess is a very good one, can confirm. It's best to go in completely blind.

> Wait… isn’t that 50 hours? > That’s correct. CSS Naked Day lasts for one international day. Is this really how this 50-hour time unit is called? Can't find a definition anywhere,…

Computers don't care whether they are used for good or for evil. I would rather have a culture that encourages using computers for good, and there is nothing sad about such culture…

This is extremely disturbing, to say the least. Really makes you wish hell existed for some people.

The C++ code there (at least in the editor directory) initializes and configures godot ui components that the editor is made of

I am actually only vaguely familiar and I was wondering about that every time I saw the format referenced but never bothered to check, your comment is informative!

There are already tools made in Godot, including the godot editor itself. This page has some of them: https://gamefromscratch.com/godot-developed-non-game-applica...

Isn't the perceived value from "rare items" from those loot boxes based on the popularity of the game/IP that the loot box system is attached to?

Physical gambling is confined to a physical location (like a casino or a sports betting bar), so people have to go there to be harmed. It's bad, but it requires someone to spend ti…

When I was writing my comment I mentioned packs as in digital loot boxes designed to feel like physical card packs.

Well I was thinking in the context of games, so the list is some of the stuff that you can waste unlimited amounts of real money on to get a chance for a shiny digital item. I do t…

Lootboxes are not entrenched in society yet. They are a new phenomenon that could hopefully be stopped in its tracks (but probably won't since it will impact profits)

Thrill rides? Probably not, I don't think there are many people having their life ruined by their addiction to amusement parks. Alcoholic drinks? History of bans like that suggests…

"Lootboxes", "cases", "packs" and other chance-based systems that involve spending real money or an in-game currency that could be obtained by spending real money should be banned …

That whole code block is pretty funny with those random percentages. Looks like a prop made for a movie or something.

Thank you for posting this. This parable does sadly ring true.

In Discord you can't "host" your own "server". You can create a room (internally called a guild, misleadingly referred to as "server" in ui and by a lot of people) on THE discord s…

Strawberry is a really good one.

"identifies as" is an unnecessarily dismissive choice of words. She is a woman.

All of us? I don't own any capital and don't have employees who I trim profits off of.
