  • Even Morrowind was a simplified version of Daggerfall, even though it was groundbreaking when it was released. They decided that the direction to take was to simplify the mechanics progressively, to make the series more appealing to more people, as opposed to adding interesting complications back as their tech develops. They succeeded in their mantra of “keep it simple, stupid”. I don’t have any hope that the next game will be more interesting. It will look prettier, of course.

    If I were stuck in the forest with a bear and another person, I’d try to gauge if I can run faster than the other person. If not, I’ll try to see if I can hit their knee caps with something. But seriously, the problem with that hypothetical situation is there’s nothing actionable, you’re either for or against, no chance of improvement. On the other hand, you shouldn’t take things personally. We all just probably wish there are things we can do to improve.


  • Every update, some thing breaks. The “new” Teams does not work well with the microphone on my work laptop, I’ve had to resort to using headphones. The interface just sucks too. I hate that the left pane auto-hides now. So inconvenient. It’s not just Teams too. Every part of Office has broken for us during previous updates. I miss the times when Windows was just an OS for the most part and MS was not trying hard to be Apple.


  • There are a lot of Linux talks, but I can’t stand all the people who keep saying all this place talks about is Linux. They are the ones who are everywhere here.

    By the way, I came back to reddit briefly for a very specific community and ever since the stock sale started getting this:

    whoa there, pardner!
