piece@feddit.itto Informatica (Italy e non Italy 😁) @feddit.it•Come funziona la nuova legge contro la pirateria onlineItaliano1·2 years agoMa anche perché è probabilmente dove girano più soldi in Italia tra i settori colpiti dalla pirateria, e se non erro la legge è firmata da niente popò di meno che Claudio Lotito. Non sarei sorpreso se poi si soffermassero più sul calcio che i film
I’d like to add that it would be nice to warn about spoilers about very old games too. I don’t think that should be a rule, but just nice.
The whole “dude that game came out 30 years ago” argument doesn’t make sense because not everyone plays everything (and not everyone has your age).
piece@feddit.itto Patient Gamers@lemmy.ml•Games you didn't like but suddenly clickedEnglish1·2 years agoIt kinda happened for me with Fallout New Vegas. I was maybe 11 and never played anything from the series. I spent my time killer hobo-ing my way through but I always felt like I was missing something, then I started reading negative opinions about it online and got influence by that, so I dropped it. After some time I played Fallout 3 after hearing people saying it was much better, I liked and I too thought it was much better than New Vegas but decided to give NV another shot (I was 12 or 13 by then). I loved it to the point where it is probably on the top of my emotional top 10. It got me into 50s/60s music, got me interested in politics and ethics, made me become a fan of science fiction and old school RPGs focused on story and a variety of approaches. Really a fantastic game.
EDIT: wanted to add that nowadays I really can’t play FO3 without thinking that I could just play NV instead. That’s how much I love that game
I’m trying to use this whole reddit madness to quit using the internet for anything that isn’t intentional. The fact that I’m here writing a comment shows that it’s not going perfectly, but so far reducing the time I spend scrolling or watching YouTube has definitely improved my headspace.
The simple act of not using my phone or any other screen until I get out of home in the morning makes me so much more energetic and my mind more clear.
It’s a fucking addiction and most of us have it without realizing. The horrible part is that quitting cuts you out of so much stuff, but it really is worth it.
