I was curious, so here’s the original post on Stack Overflow: Link (Archive Link)

Fights in Tight Places looks pretty fun. I’m a big deckbuilder fan, so always enjoy a new one. but that does make me wonder how Tainted Grail: Conquest runs because I really found that one to be a lot of fun. And also reminds me that before I buy a new deckbuilder I should probably play that Balatro game everyone talks about…

Weird to discover I’m in the minority for trusting the verification check marks. Sure, I’ve played games without a check on Deck, but I usually use the check to determine how smooth and enjoyable the experience will be.

I’ve realized I just prefer mouse and keyboard so much that I don’t find the deck as enjoyable as others. I still love it, but the number of games I’m interested in playing on it are very limited. So the check is helpful to know how comfy the game will be.

I don’t want to waste any time setting a game up or fixing issues on Deck. It’s just not what I bought the device for.

That being said, any recommendations for smooth, out-of-the-box games on the Deck that didn’t appear in the top 10?

No more bugs than RDR2 at this point. Characters will still do silly animations once in a while but that’s pretty much unavoidable in big games, I feel.

Definitely play it. It was one of my top games of 2023 when I played it. I didn’t want it to end once I’d beaten it

You could go back and stop yourself from wasting money on something silly at least

Hilariously, you only need to go back in time two days to when they minted the Luigi Mangioni coin and buy it right away (and sell at the peak). It ballooned something ridiculous like 37k% so that should set you up nicely

This is something I think about a lot.

Part of me would love to go back and redo high school.or college and just be a better student, learn more, and flirt with girls more (although now that you mention it the age thing would make it weird, you’re right). But I end up at the same conclusion - it wouldn’t be worth not meeting and marrying my wife.

It’d be so difficult to meet her again (we met on Tinder) and to make it so she’s interested in dating me. And then the relationship would be so one sided because I’d know every intimate detail of her past and she’d know nothing of mine.

So, I eventually come to the conclusion that nothing I could do in the past is worth risking her.

I would say it’s reasonably difficult. I haven’t beaten the 100 levels yet, I’ve only gotten up to 50, but it may be that the developer expects you to unlock more permanent unlocks before you can fully beat the game

But there are times when a boss gives you quite the bullet storm so it may be difficult if you aren’t coordinated

Similar boat. We aren’t even seeing my wife’s family because her mom is getting back together with her MAGA ex-husband and my wife just doesn’t want to be a part of that

If you haven’t already seen it, watch The Brainwashing of My Dad. It is a short documentary about this kind of experience that’s worth the quick watch

I guess there are trucks in World of Warcraft

Oh nice! I’ve kept the Xbox game bar running so that I can make these clips so it will be nice to ditch that bloated mess - no need for two overlays

I was thinking the ghost tower or cave music from R/B/Y

Just added this to my browser this morning, coincidentally! Not sure what thread it was, but I thought it was this one. Thanks for the link though, it’ll be a big help

Thank you very much! I wasn’t aware of these guidelines so it’s interesting to read

I think the notability is a little hard to define, so I could see some discussion happening, especially about more minute details like individual items in games. But it seems like, based on the existence of a Krillin page, that there is at least some precedent for somewhat broader topics

I see what you’re saying, but also I don’t think those analogies are necessarily fair. I don’t think putting Yoshi’s birthday on Wikipedia instead of Yoshipedia is quite as critical as a central bank failure

We’re on Lemmy, which is an aggregation source just like Wikipedia. Some knowledge is only stored here, while other knowledge is an external link. It’s not a bad thing to be a central point of information as long as it is a community-driven process with high levels of transparency, like Wikipedia.

Lemmy, however, works differently from Wikipedia or Reddit in that multiple services work together to be that aggregation source, which is great, and Wikipedia doesn’t have that, which is not great. So that of course could be better in an ideal world, and I would bet there is a federated Wiki service already out there

But, I’m not talking about life changing information here, I’m talking about what happened to Krillin in episode 700 of Dragon Ball Super, I think it’s okay if that information lives in one central location - especially since you can always just watch the episode again to verify

Do you happen to know where in the rules it would list the “level of relevance”. I did a cursory read through of the content guidelines but I didn’t see anything that would necessarily exclude descriptions of specific video game content, levels, or assets, but I’m no master at Wikipedia - I can’t say I’ve contributed much beyond donations.

Also I did mention those unique features some wikis have. For example, the Old School RuneScape Wiki has some really great calculators, maps, and data collectors, so I’m very happy with those. But for less popular ones where nobody is putting in the work to make the wiki exemplary feels like we may as well save time and not give Fandom money by using Wikipedia

And look and feel I would say is good unless it’s a fandom, and then all the look and feel in the world doesn’t justify those ads

One thing that recently had me pondering was why do we need separate wikis, why not just add the information to Wikipedia? Unless your wiki has some feature Wikipedia doesn’t support, it just seems to provide a background image and ads.

For example, I was looking up some Dragonball information, and their wiki was really sparse and didn’t answer my question. So I randomly tried Wikipedia and it had all my answers

My only guess is some Wikipedia usage rules that say not to but I find that unlikely

White.

I think because when I was young I associated it with angels and purity and I wanted to be a good person.

Now I just think it looks crisp and clean and it’s always been “my” color in games

So I give you articles that are not only referencing the exact version of addiction you want and mention a support group that you keep referencing and you dismiss them because it’s inconvenient. I fit the references to something you might find convincing. I didn’t find sources that convinced me I found sources that might convince you.

But please, provide your own evidence, as you referenced earlier. I have provided mine, and I await yours.

You have literally said nothing at this point beyond referencing outdated version of the manual and anecdotal evidence.
