I didn't say they don't make good games. I said they drink the koolaid.
Context matters, and in the context of this thread (whether or not Bethesda games often have Denuvo) that means the anti-piracy "DRM is neat" koolaid (vs them avoiding DRM for self-developed games so they can be modded extensively).
Bethesda the publisher does things differently than Bethesda the developer.
As a dev, they know their modding communities keep their games alive long, long past their expiration dates and will fuck with them as little as they possibly can - this takes them from games to household names to legends that everyone knows.
As a publisher pushing products that aren't intended to be modded, they drink the koolaid.
I can’t even tell most of you people apart.
Have you ever considered maybe that's the point? Maybe people want to be judged for what they say instead of what image they had on hand when they signed up?
I uploaded a pic while playing with all the shiny features over here, but I was faceless on reddit for years after their introduction of profile pics, because I was there to have discussions, not build a profile. And the one I picked here? It tells you almost nothing about me unless you already know the character in the image, which only people who have a similar niche interest might.
This is like whining about women who don't wear makeup, because "If you have the option why not just snazzy it up with a ~~couple of images~~ tiny bit of eyeshadow. I think it’s shows a bit of personality." Sometimes the active decision not to bother with cosmetic features IS the personality you're looking for.
Acclimatization is a whole thing. I remember thinking 65F / 18C was cold once upon a time, then I moved north and now only bother putting on a jacket if it's below 40F / 5C or so (but now I start seriously suffering above 85F / 30 C where that used to be my ideal temp).
People who pretend certain temps are objectively not that cold or hot have never moved from one climate to another, I think. The person you replied to must be from a hot area.
Celcius really isn't that hard to get used to if you stop getting hung up on conversions and just live in it for a while. Faherenheit also isn't as hard to get used to as people meme it to be. It's all about what you've spent a significant enough time in to get the data points for how stuff feels to you.
Either scale would be second nature to anyone after a year in a new home. I made the change np. I never do conversion math, I just know what it feels like outside and can ballpark the number I remember having a similar feeling in the other place. It's really not a big deal and not worth all the internet yelling that goes on about it.
Vote federation can be a little wonky, but generally, yeah.
Dunno about over on lemmy, but on kbin we have an "activity" link on each comment exposing all voters.
Edit: OP downvoted everyone who disagreed with him.
Sigh. Please OP, we're not doing that here. Downvotes should be reserved for trolls and the counterproductive. This comment with its snappy "kick the puppy that is your opinion" is not the most productive, but there are downvotes from OP on way more innocuous things, even one comment that agrees reddit is dying but in a different way than the linked article envisions.
Please leave that behavior on reddit.
The phrase "what's stopping you" implies we're all interested, but hesitant.
This is a really, really bad assumption.
Not remembering a joke from an episode that aired 25 years ago doesn't really rank high on most people's shame-o-meters, my dude
