1·3 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
1·3 years agoIt’s an old (early-internet?) joke iirc. And yes, I think that’s the answer
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).
1·3 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.
