Will we really have more performant games? Are game companies going to invest in an opensource game engine to pool their talent and make the most performant game engine out their that makes the most performant games?
It’s way more likely they’ll try and sell us yet another SaaS product or even better, an AI product that guzzles a cubic metre per request.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Should we use the "anti woke" steam curators to buy games?
2·22 hours agoThat’s good, because that wasn’t what I was suggesting 🫰

1·23 hours agoIf you spend money on games they are trying to boycott and take attention away from, I don’t think they’ll cackle. Especially if many people do it. Then their lists will achieve exactly the opposite of what they want to achieve.

1·23 hours agoMaybe I should make an “anti-woke” list and say the racist games are woke, just to mess with them.

1·23 hours agoIt’s not about given them attention, but the games they are boycotting.

6·2 days agoYou can do that too. For me, it would fulfill two functions: give a review for a game with my honest opinion, and help make the “anti-woke” lists a double edged sword for the bigots: if you make a public list, it may also be used by the “woke” to support their games.

1·2 days agoIf any group complaining about something makes it “controversial”, then everything is controversial and the word loses all meaning.

Gaming@beehaw.org•Should we use the "anti woke" steam curators to buy games?
10·2 days agoYeah, woke. Oops.
I’m not suggesting “buy every game on this list” but to use it as a means to discover games. There are probably good games on there which get undue hate from the curator’s followers and are not very well know. The followers do try and review bomb the games, so they don’t bubble up to the top naturally.
That would be unfortunate. When lemmy.world goes down, I think all their content is still available on every instance that federated with it.

6·2 days agoOh oh… the left seems to hate itself more than the right again. Hopefully the elections won’t see a divided left again.
Would this kind of thing be possible with peertube? It has “peer” in the name, but is it really resistant to take downs or unforeseen outages? If peertube instance A is hosting a video and I’m on peertube instance B, trying to watch that video, if instance A goes down, will that video be unaccessible?

1·2 days agoThey do have an “Owners” forum (the default is the Non-Owners for those who don’t own the game). I imagine the non-owners forum is there to provide an opportunity for non-owners to ask genuine questions about the game, but that obviously isn’t happening. Maybe you’re right and they should just make it owners only. I don’t know if it would be visible to others though.
