  • You can choose not to answer and I respect that, I’ve seen you guys post around here a lot. While I have in the past tried to avoid those conversations, I’ve simply never given any of you a chance to speak your mind. Do I believe there are people on lemmy that just want to troll? Absolutely! There’s people like that everywhere, I’m simply trying to understand your perspective because I’ve never engaged in the subject, now I’m intrigued. I’ve gotten to a point where I just have to know what drives you and why. Answer if you want or ignore me, I won’t harass you about it. I’m just trying to give you a chance to speak and explain so I can better understand. There’s no trickery here, I promise.



  • I think a certain controller model was more susceptible to stick drift than others. I think it was after the horizon forbidden West bundle where they started selling newer controller models with more reliable sticks. Both of my ps5 controllers have been dropped, thrown, played after and while eating by children and they’re still fine. I have also have a dualsense edge controller for myself though so I don’t really care what the kids do to their controllers. Grand total of 3 controllers and none of them have drift.


  • Legend of Zelda breath of the wild is the absolute worst Zelda I’ve ever played. I’ve played and beaten the following: OoT, MM, SS, ALttP, ALbW, LA, Zelda 2. I’ve almost beaten wind Waker and twilight princess, so you could say I’ve played a few Zelda games.

    BotW is a mix of assassins creed, Minecraft, and Zelda characters with shit dungeons. The divine beasts are garbage replacements for dungeons and shrines are not a replacement for dungeons either, it’s just a terrible Zelda, but a decent open world game.




  • I’m not trying to start a communism vs capitalism debate here, capitalism has its benefits, but that doesn’t mean I support every sick and twisted thing the US does.

    This is simply a request for a statement on alleged ties the developer has to human rights violations. I don’t support the incarceration of African Americans one bit and think it’s absolutely disgusting what we’ve done. I don’t support those systems at all. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to prove here. I honestly commend your efforts. You’re clearly passionate about your united states hate boner, there’s nothing wrong with that and that’s the beauty of free speech. However, when you say things like “capitalism bad communism good!” but then turn around and support things like uyhger genocide and slave labor of North Koreans for lumber camps in syberia we have a problem. All of those situations, even the situations that the US has participated in is bad, that doesn’t mean I support them, that’s what I want to hear, do the devs support those human rights violations that they specifically have been tied too.



  • I want a statement on the apparent lemmygrad connections and supporting human rights violations. The recent blog post was a PR non-answer, free speech is important, but human rights violations are just not acceptable.

    Edit: it’s obvious at this point there will never be a proper statement. I just want to say that regardless of the country of origin, US, China, EU, South Africa, India, it doesn’t matter to me, all human rights violations are violations and unacceptable. This isn’t a communism vs capitalism debate, this is a situation of whether to support the guy creating this software if that individual supports genocidal tendencies.



    1. Linux native for me was always somewhat problematic in the past. Frankly if someone tells you otherwise they’re lying. Proton makes the process simple, click install and play, that’s it, and that’s all any consumer needs to do.
    2. The only long term consequence I can see is if Microsoft decides to make using compatibility layers for their SDK’s intentionally difficult or downright illegal. Valve so far has proven as long as they can do it, they’ll update proton to make games work. The question is will someone pick up the torch if valve eventually stops?
    3. I treat them the same, doesn’t matter to me as proton really is performance parity with Windows and that’s really the baseline.
    4. Until porting natively is just as easy as using proton, no one will port natively. At this point who cares? Native and proton to me are the same at this point.
