I should have said more, for once. I meant simulation more to describe the Bethesda house style, which seems to be this idea that having apples that can roll around on a table or whatever is immersive and engaging enough that you don't need Michael Kirkbride hanging around putting weird metaphysical shit all over the place, actually. I wasn't saying they were good at it, only that it appears to be what they think.

I think they really don't believe in storytelling in the way traditional game writers do. They think enough simulation can replace good writing.

Personally I'm certain they are wrong, and it's tragic that they own the Elder Scrolls IP.

New ones will be provided.

People would be sold them very cheaply and be required to subscribe to gain more than limited control of the screen output. Hackers will put gore and porn on them and turn people into pariahs. They'll BSOD in public, give you cancer, require an always-on connection, turn you into an advert (surely you could not object, if you are paid a fraction of a penny per eyeball), be made by slave labor, and end up in the sea.

And people will scoff at you for not liking it.

This depends on the information and the recipient, every single time. Genuine understanding between two minds is more rare and precious than gold, and it fades all too quickly. It is like a flower once picked. You tend that garden if you want more than one.

Arguably, we still are.

Sorry to bother, autocorrect is dire these days isn't it?

Wack ass cartoon screen. People are going to wear this shit by the metre, watch

We unwittingly created a world of entrenched nuclear states who feel totally safe from invasion, rogue nations who shouldn't have them and have almost nothing to lose, and everyone else who has to watch their backs.

Carte blanche, i.e. blank check. Just sharing in case that wasn't a typo

No advice yet as I'm in the same exact boat. We're about to get ours evaluated for ADHD privately while unconvinced it's the best option... Ours is young enough that he doesn't really have memories of the US and started school here, but still comes off as blatantly American. It's been a comedy of errors learning how the school system works (putting him and my wife through school the last 3 years, somehow).

But hey, hit me up if you're ever out near Kent, I figure I owe you a pint or three for all the work you do to keep things fresh on Lemmy.

Bitchhh what's up
