yet another Elevator7009 alt, now to mod !automationgames@lemmy.zip
I also like to headcanon something along these lines. I mod !bunnies@lemmy.world and don’t like to imagine that my farmer is hurting them (because how else would you get that?). But I also find the comic funny and don’t feel uncomfortable at all with it, so I guess my sensitivity (well maybe it’s just a preference?) works weirdly.
Had my eye on this one for a bit! I know the kurzgesagt people are at least somewhat involved, people who make cute little educational animations with birds.
Been using Cattails: Wildwood Story, a !lifesimulation@lemmy.world, as my relax-after-work game.
Started The Farmer Was Replaced (if you like things like that, !automationgames@lemmy.zip), to try to ease me into coding again. There is a function to pet a flying piggy available to you right from the beginning of the game, and they tell you this. I feel shocked that only ~25% of players have that achievement when about ~75% have gotten the achievements you get for the very first actions you do in-game. Also, the sounds of you harvesting crops (or of them going into the piggy bank for items, not sure which) reminds me very much of the Minecraft item pickup sound.
Thanks for the heads-up, though!
Seeing people do themed or challenge runs is always entertaining.
Tried to use a search engine to find this. Ended up having to come to my own Lemmy post to get it back. Glad I posted it
I remember some of these being posted here in this community! Especially the train one.
As for the Pokémon-style one, I have unfortunately fallen hard into liking specifically the !pokemon@sopuli.xyz IP and its universe and characters and wanting to explore the Pokémon universe from different game genres. Becoming champion is all well and good, but a slice-of-life where you just befriend Pokémon and people, chill, and see more of how Pokémon are present in a more mundane life would be cool. As would be designing the towns and cities you go through in-game… I wonder how much this game will deliver on that fantasy while also not getting sued by Nintendo (because just because I have affection for that particular property that conveniently pushes Nintendo consoles doesn’t mean I am unaware of the bad things Nintendo’s done). From what I have heard some of the official Pokémon games they’ve been putting out have been at least dipping toes in different genres, though not usually quite as well as other games in the same genre because they count on the Pokémon brand to carry it through.
Cattails: Wildwood Story (!lifesimulation@lemmy.world, some mechanics will feel familiar for !StardewValley@piefed.social players but it’s not the same)
man I love personality quizzes
their update blogs are always a hilarious treasure
deleted by creator
also it’s adorable, i do not like shooters or the entire premise of the game but the cute rubber ducks were enough to tempt me
To each their own, I bought the game because of that kind of thing!
It is also something I also want to avoid as much as possible. I’d rather have the uncomfortable conversation with someone than ghost them and I have actually walked that walk before, having uncomfortable conversations I wanted to avoid in order to not ghost someone else. Just wanted to show empathy for people who do it and maybe provide an explanation to the rest of us wondering why others hurt us that way.
As a person who spent a lot of time feeling rejected and unsure of why people were happy to be my acquaintance but not my friend, never getting any explanation why I wasn’t good enough (the answer was undiagnosed autism and the trouble with social skills that comes with that), ghosting with no explanation hurts me in my soul.
I get why people do it though. How do you know if it’s a person who was clueless to what their bad behavior and is desperate to have literally anyone tell them what they do wrong so they can change, or someone who will flip out and get violent or stalkery or super spiteful towards group members once ejected from the group? How do you know it will not spiral into some giant drama, especially if you were wrong or others disagree about if their behavior was objectionable? Conflict avoidance, whether for justified reasons or not, is very very common.
I am cool with it, as someone looking for games to turn off my brain while I recharge. Really easy decisions. Meditative. Kind of like !knitting@lemmy.world an easy pattern, except that my hands do not hurt by hour 2.
I’m currently playing through Pokémon SoulSilver and the battle animations are kind of slow, so I am absolutely playing on fast forward and feel bad about it because I’m missing out on the music at normal speed.
this looks so cool, and is exactly why i’ve been avoiding using this alt account; i do not need to be tempted into buying another game :(
genuinely considering yielding mod position here to you lol
