Projection is when you said “I guess you’re just upset because someone was critical of something you like.”

If you must know, I’m actually not a Mario Kart fan, played the older ones but haven’t touched the series since DS. More of a Kirby Air Ride and F-Zero GX kinda guy. But I can still understand the appeal well enough to not post this kind of thinly veiled “I’m mad that other people like something I don’t” thread.
missingno@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•All right music fans, what's your favorite band/musician and how many times have you seen them live?4·1 day agoI got to see him live for the first time last year, absolutely incredible show.
Are you really unable to understand why other people enjoy things? Is this a serious question?
missingno@fedia.ioto Games@sh.itjust.works•When will the next "E.T." moment happen in the industry?4·2 days agoBut none of those are entire industries crashing. Audiences change, media changes how it targets audiences, business models change, but the medium still lives.
It’s a great show… whenever one particular character isn’t onscreen.
Loved the first four games, but I skipped 5 after hearing nothing but bad things. Glad to hear this is a return to form.
Them’s Fightin’ Herds has one of the best tutorials in the fighting game genre, but on top of that it also has a story mode cleverly designed to act as a second tutorial. Enemies and bosses are designed you on specific concepts like anti-airing or getting past zoning. It even has platforming segments to get you used to fighting game movement.
Sadly, the published pulled the plug so chapter 1 is all we’ll ever get. But that chapter 1 is still better than any other fighting game singleplayer.
missingno@fedia.ioto Games@sh.itjust.works•When will the next "E.T." moment happen in the industry?24·2 days agoThe Atari crash was just Atari. In North America - and only North America, things were quite different elsewhere in the world - Atari was virtually the entire game industry at the time, but that isn’t the case today.
We already do see individual developers and publishers crash the way Atari did. All the time. But for every flop, there are a dozen hits. The industry is big, and it is not a monolith. And the audience is far far far larger. People will always be buying games. It’s not possible for the entire industry to crash the way Atari did.
It’d be like expecting the entire music industry, movie industry, or book industry to crash.
missingno@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•For those who play games on a PC with 2 monitors, are you a game on the left screen or game on the right screen person?1·2 days agoRight monitor is 16:9 and VRR, left is a 16:10 monitor my work gave me during covid. So games go on the right.

It’s designed to be easily beatable even if you don’t know much about chess.

This is a task on par with counting the number of Rs in the word ‘strawberry’, something the intelligent ChatGPT also famously cannot do.
missingno@fedia.ioto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?461·4 days agoBear in mind that ActivityPub is so much more than just Lemmy. Mbin and Piefed both exist as alternatives.
A worthy opponent for all of my favorite niche games that I’ll never convince my IRL friends to play.
missingno@fedia.ioto Nintendo@lemmy.world•Splatoon Raiders - Splatoon spin-off game and Splatoon 3 update6·4 days agoTurf War - 3 minute timer, whichever team has more ink at the end wins. This mode is only played in casual unranked, ranked is all objective modes. During Splatfests, there’s a special 2v2v4 variant called Tricolor Turf War.
Splat Zones - Standard King of the Hill. Ink the point to capture it (some maps have two points, you must control both at once). While your team is in control, your timer ticks down. Whoever hits zero first, or whoever has more progress after 5 minutes, wins.
Tower Control - Payload variant. Tower starts in the center, get on it to ride it along a track towards a goal in the opponent’s base. Ride all the way to the goal for a knockout victory, or after five minutes whoever has come closest to the goal wins.
Rainmaker - Reverse capture-the-flag. The Rainmaker is a special weapon that starts in the center of the map and has a barrier surrounding it, pop the barrier to explode ink nearby (and take out opponents that are too close, it’s a tug-of-war battle to control pop). Pick it up, and it replaces your normal weapon with a slow charge shot and reduces your movement speed, so teammates need to escort you to a goal in the opponent’s base. Reach the goal for KO, or whoever has come closest after five minutes.
Clam Blitz - Complicated. Clams spawn around the map, pick up 8 of them to form a Power Clam. Toss a Power Clam into a basket in the opposing team’s base to score 20 points, which also marks the basket as open so that single clams can be tossed in for 3 points each until it closes. 100 points to KO, or best score after five minutes.
missingno@fedia.ioto Nintendo@lemmy.world•Splatoon Raiders - Splatoon spin-off game and Splatoon 3 update7·4 days agoS3’s singleplayer is solid, doesn’t quite live up to the highs of S2 Octo Expansion though. It admittedly does kinda feel like an afterthought, multiplayer is very obviously the core of the series. Side Order brings some cool ideas to the table and has a very good core loop, but the balancing is all over the place and it’s a bit lacking in variety/content.
I’m really hoping this spinoff is more of an actual spinoff though, show me something new and different in using this IP rather than just another iteration of the same story mode formula sold at full price.

Trailer also confirms a big update for S3 - third kits(!!!), Urchin Underpass(!!!), and graphical upgrades on Switch 2.
missingno@fedia.ioto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•ChatGPT 'got absolutely wrecked' by Atari 2600 in beginner's chess match — OpenAI's newest model bamboozled by 1970s logic224·4 days agoNot necessarily that AI is marketed as a competitive board game player, but that AI is marketed as intelligence. This helps illustrate how clueless it really is.
Never be fooled into believing that corporations are your friend. They are always just looking to chase profits.
But if corporations believe that Pride is profitable, that is a sign that society is headed in the right direction. Whereas if they turn around because Pride is no longer profitable, that is a cause for worry.
