Thanks for the warning. I just got my first Uber unique in Diablo 4 and I don’t want my day to be ruined.

Hobbit trilogy and the prequel trilogy are another example of this.

Oof, that’s going to make it’s difficult to get a podium then.

There’s no anticheat in the game?

Teams are just shit like that. Although my company has migrated to 365 for our work apps, the team’s main communication is still Slack. With Slack I’m still able to find old messages easily and be able to link it in relevant context.

The bonfire mechanic (meditation spots), enemies respawn every time you rest (meditate), XP that is lost when you die. Hack and slash combat that rewards good dodge and parry timings.

It’s more of a Soulslite because there’s basically a checkpoint for the perk points that is permanent after you get it. There are also difficulty settings in the game that adjust the damage that you receive and the parry window.

This is out of the topic of the Souls element of the game, but I love the realistic combat modifier in NG+ where the battles are much more realistic where you and the enemies will die after getting one or two hits. It’s similar to the Lethal difficulty on Ghost of Tsushima. Made the game much more enjoyable and made you really feel like you’re playing a Kurosawa movie.

I thought the Jedi games are more like souls lite metroidvania games. Scratched that itch for a Star Wars game. From the article it seems that they’re making an FPS. I hope it’s more of a Titanfall 2 main campaign type of game.

I use it as a learning tool. When I was making my own framework it forced me to learn all the intricacies of the thing I was making the framework off. TBH it never saw any use in a project but the process of making it is a huge learning experience for me.

It can show things that you’ve never downloaded if your ISP assigns a dynamic or shared IP. So it means some of your neighbors are into that kind of thing.

This, I always told my juniors to not rein in their hobby for writing code in their spare time. I saw too many people get burnt out and then get stuck on their career just doing the bare minimum to not get fired. Although it can be a plus for some people.

When you're a kid you just don't have the frame of reference to know that gameplay can get better than what you're having. I still remember the games that I played (and loved playing) when I was a kid got really shat on the reviews when I tried looking it up on the internet.

Once in a blue moon I liked to prowl on the music review sites (ew, I know) and check out the artists featured there. Sometimes I found a couple of gems that I still listen to today.

Memes are always the lowest common denominator compared to more community specific oriented posts. A meme can be digested in 5 seconds or less so people are easier to upvote it and move along.

Compared to more specific posts that usually requires you to read the whole post or visit the link to truly digest and then decide whether you want to upvote it or not.

It can still be built from the ground up but still uses the same design. If it’s a native app written in Swift not a PWA like Voyager I’d say that from the ground up still applies. Because you still need to code everything from scratch.

Hey, the one responsible to maximize the value is the Product Owner, not the devs. We’re only responsible in taking the PBIs in the backlog that’s ordered based on value and delivering it. Whether it is really valuable or not is the responsibility of the Product Owner.

Damn this is one really hot take 😭

Blame management for that. I implemented Scrum in a project that I took over without any changes to the framework and it is great. We are able to keep a healthy work life balance, no overtime, good relationship between the product and the engineering team, and the most important thing is on time feature delivery.

This, very much this. I’ve been having more pleasant discussions with random people replying to Mastodon posts compared to the brain parasites victim making their nest on xitter.

So what is “native to the platform” according to your definition?

Yep, I also love the late 00s and early 10s feeling to Lemmy now. I find myself having more stuff done IRL since quitting reddit and browsing Lemmy occasionally.
