Holy shit. What a psychopath. I cringe to think of what was in that syringe.

That's the way it always seems to work. Watch how fast gun legislation gets put through when a politician's kid gets caught up in a school shooting.

Watch how fast the conversation changes when the protests aren't just "radical extremists from the left".

What's that line? "Soon, they will have been against this all along..."

Yeah, that makes sense. I get it, I just despise it, lol.

Would be nice to be able to read the article. This hiding shit behind an account just guarantees I'll never read it on your site.

I sincerely hope it's not still at 40%. That's fucking depressing to think about.

That was informative. I stopped using Chrome/chromium browsers on mobile specifically because I was attempting to lighten my google-load. I'll have to give the grouping a try sometime. FF has it on desktop, I use it a lot now that it's on there. I think that was somewhat recent. I never even thought about it being on the mobile version, yeah, that would be handy.

Fair. Thanks for answering.

It's starting to feel like they fear more than their jobs at this point.

We all took foreign languages in school and none of us can actually speak those languages in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

I think that's a great point. That seems to be what the other person who replied to me is saying. Immersion is #1, changing my relationship to language and the voice in my head, so to speak.

I'm kind of surprised to hear you say that. I've been quite happy with Firefox mobile. I haven't experienced any of the lag or whatever you mentioned. The ability to use extensions far outweighs any updated visuals in the UI department for me. It does everything I need a browser to do.

What is it that you need that isn't already there? (genuinely asking)

What Are Ya'll Playing? (lemmy.world)
 

Just thought I could get a discussion thread going. What is everyone playing lately?

I just finished playing Metal Gear Solid Delta, it was great! I decided to play through the series finally after years of watching video essays on the game, and I'm glad I did! I played Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2: Subsistence through emulation (4k HD for the win!) It was a great experience and I can see why the series is so highly venerated. It holds up remarkably well, and the long cut scenes were really enjoyable. I thought it would be annoying, but I actually found myself looking forward to them. Delta was like jumping forward in time 30 years, but still extremely fun. I'm glad they stayed so close to the source material so I could just play the new release instead of booting up Snake Eater through emulation.

Now if I could just play IV without a PS3, that would be awesome. I might have to try emulation on that, but from what I read, the experience isn't great.

Regardless, now I'm replaying Max Payne 3. This game IS SO FREAKING GOOD. I had forgotten how good it is. The noir narration is just amazing. The gameplay is tight as a snare drum. The art style and visuals are still amazing even when compared to modern games. Rockstar really knocked this game out of the park. I still haven't played Max Payne 1 or 2, and maybe I should. Also, I found out that one of the bands I've recently discovered and have been listening to like crazy, Health, did the score for Max Payne 3. The music is fantastic. If you haven't played it, I highly recommend giving it a go.

Other than those games, I plan to play through The Last of Us 1 for the first time soon. Not sure how "retro" it is, but I think it is borderline given the original release date and hardware. Looking forward to trying it for the first time. I've never had Sony consoles, so I've missed out on a ton of first-party Sony games over the years. Trying to make up for that by playing modern PC releases and through emulation.

So yeah, what do ya'll have going on right now? What do you recommend playing and why?

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 - One of the Most Amazing Gaming Soundtrack Experiences Ever (youtu.be)
 

This game absolutely blew me away in a number of ways, but above all, the score for this game has been stuck in my head for weeks since completing it.

I can't wait to see what comes next from this ultra-talented studio. Here are some of my favorite tracks from the game. I've used YouTube links rather than Spotify because there are a few songs which they didn't include on the soundtrack which deserve a listen. (Especially the Manor music, that shit slaps!) They said the reason for this is they have "something special planned" for these songs. No idea what that might be yet. Here's hoping for a full 11 minute performance of Une vie à t'aimer!

Here are some of my favorites. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
