The great thing is, now you're 100% empowered to move forward and host the responsibility yourself. Demanding volunteers shoulder potential liability (when you yourself admit you can't understand how there's any in the first place) is juvenile.

The moment a volunteer is hit with a DMCA notice or any threat of legal action, you think they have any interest in going through the court system? You can do it first.

Waving a Nazi flag should be a flight to Dachau and experiencing a full 12 months the --exact-- same way it used to be.

To be fair, 2 of those games are legit some of the GOATs. I've been gaming since my mom played Mario with me in the early 90s, and those two games are something else.

I remember buying the Minecraft alpha for $10, and there wasn't that much to do, but it was strangely addicting.

I think it's because when it is illegal it's ultra illegal and ultra terrible. Even then I question how much of it is already pretty sus.

I've been hearing this since 2010. Nothing is going to change.

EA Sports 2024 is going to come out, it's going to have 40,000 mixed reviews.

Anyone that bothers you based on your hardware is an actual 🤡

Let go of that thought. Reddit is (probably) here to stay. Lemmy will have less users, less communities, and tbh, probably less quality content. That's okay. Grow your seeds.

I always wanted a Tesla. I'm now in a position I could buy one comfortably, but now I have a spine and won't.

I graduated at 27 and got an internship in SF. Life changed.

We might have to accept we're on the "losing" side, e.g. Lemmy will never have the numbers our subreddits had. We'll have smaller communities and less content, but hopefully better conversation.

I'm rambling because I love Zelda, but I'm also working rn, but also want Lemmy to have content.

I'm in a mild counter-party. In totk, I went Goron first, but didn't get to the temple. I then deviated back to Rito hoping to unlock the aerial boost from botw. That opening sequence to the wind temple (SPOILERS AHEAD) of Link ascending through the skies was, in my opinion, the greatest moment in Zelda history so far (I haven't yet completed the water temple, desert temple, or the other). The mild puzzle for unlocking the water temple (the eye in the sky) was brilliant. The goron story was slightly dark, akin to older 3d titles like Majora's Mask. I can't wait to see what the other temples bring (diablo 4 hardcore sucking my time up).

Consistently in totk we see the hero doing epic feats we've never really been able to see him do before. The boss fight for the wind temple was absolutely bonkers and really gives credence to Link being worthy of the Triforce and being a hero of time. The way the music overtures slowly ramp up as you progress in the dungeon is phenomenal.

Do you think there is anything lacking in botw1/2 that bringing back items fixes? I think the reliance of fusing as a primary gimmick is terrible (especially for arrows). As a side application, it would be awesome. I'm really hope in the third installment they bring back some core items, but I just don't see how it would work? Right now you can climb everything and be everywhere (which is something else I think is vastly underrated in botw+). In the 3d zeldas, Ice/Fire arrows were huge deals, but in botw you can just fuse berries on for the same effect. Arguing one is better than the other, idk. The openness of totk is superb. If you watched 10 people play the first 10 hours of the game, or even approach the same temple, I sincerely doubt any of them would look remotely close to the same. There's definitely something to be said about that.

I miss the hookshot (more so the grappling hook from Wind Waker).

 

We went on a run, then swam in the ocean, then I gave this gift at the end!
