I’m not a US citizen but I agree with this. Biden was a weak leader and everyone was praying he gets off the stage every time he talked in the 2024 elections. He stepped down too late, Kamala had very little time to set up a campaign, and everything she said made it sound like she’s Biden 2.0, including supporting wars that alienated people voting for her. When your entire campaign is based on “at least we’re not the other side!” and nothing else, there is no enthusiasm to support you.

They need to do better next time :P

Thank you! There are definitely a lot of politics communities on Lemmy, so I’m a huge fan of not having them leak into casual communities like this.

You can do a lot of things by pirating. Most people aren’t interested in loading a Switch emulator and downloading roms.

Have you tried running it with Repentogon? It optimized mod performance and has an options menu to adjust performance settings.

Scavenger’s Reign wasn’t advertised in the slightest. I watch a lot of animation. I browse Netflix occasionally. The only time I heard of this show was from word of mouth.

I agree so much, but it’s not even the “follow a friendly NPC while they talk” quests that get me. This game also has “follow the villain without getting caught” quests which are mind-numbingly boring. They move like a tortoise and look behind them once every minute or something to make sure you’re not standing right behind them. They’re insultingly dumb and treat me like I’ve never played a video game before.

Yup, but that’s my opinion of most open world games anyways. There’s a lot of Ubisoft-esque content like “free this stronghold” or sidequests that involve you slowly following an NPC and they get old very quickly. The combat also doesn’t evolve that much, so I found myself bored around the halfway point.

You’re missing out, Repentance is amazing. They’re all on sale right now for the 10th anniversary so it’s a good time to get them.

The modding community really is insane. There are a couple of fan-made expansions like Fiend Folio that massively overhaul everything. I hope this update tries not to break mod support.

I remember playing it on release… Feels like a lifetime ago. Usually it’d feel like less but 10 years checks out for me here.
