Oh God, that skill card system is just what I'd feared it would be: a completely pointless system that will add nothing but frustration to the game experience. So the game is encouraging you to take a break from killing zombies (the fun part of the game) and redo your skill card loadout to fit the situation your in. If I want to be as effective as possible, this could mean pausing every time I pick up a new weapon, or every time I encounter a specific zombie. I wish they wouldn't try to be cute with their system and just use a damn skill tree like a normal game.

Hiring should be entirely qualification / skill based.
If there are not enough black developers with the qualifications and skills, then it speaks more to their disinterest in the field (which is fine, they're free to feel that way!) - and not to the hiring practices of dev studios.
Wokism is the belief that (1) all of society is currently and intentionally structured to oppress, (2) all gaps in performance between large groups illustrate this, and (3) the solution is 'equity' - proportional representation w/o regard to performance.

Hooray, Vampire Survivors! It’s such a stupid game, and it’s very aware of that, while also having a LOT to discover and unlock. I’ve put maybe 30 hours into it, which is pretty good for a game that was $3 (full price) when I got it. I think it’s like $4 or $5 now.
Just got a tv, finally have a 4K screen. Also HDR10 and quite a few other bells and whistles. Got Ragnarok for Christmas and been waiting until we got this tv to play it, very excited to see it look as good as it can.

Whoops, I actually LOL'ed at my own comment. That's pathetic.
Time for another beer.

Between cloutchasers on Twitter and clickbait sites like Kotaku, the controversy has only served to give this game a shitload of free press. Kotaku in particular is pretty amusing over how they cannot stop pushing out massive-ass articles with the most inane non-criticisms of the actual game; all they criticize is "JKR is a turd" or "game mechanics break the immersion of magic not being real". They could go over the technical issues (poor performance in the game's namesake area), low quality filler content, or by-the-numbers simple combat, but instead manage make the game sound amazing and keep giving it free advertising.

Sounds like this has had you reading a lot of Kotaku.

According to Steam reviews, the highest difficulty is paid DLC. The other paid DLC are various one-time save-file locked, consumable boosts.

Crap had no idea it's from a russian company, loyal to fsb and puttin'along.
Edit: I was able to accurately translate the russian and get a reading on the finer print points.We the owners and employees, offer all our fortunes and collected data to the supreme leader!
Even if we get thrown out of a highrise building, like so many of our comrades before us!

I don't get to worked up about the FOV anymore.
There's a Cheat Engine mod that always gets released and they always have a FOV option in it/. its how I played the new Dead Space. and it was really awesome having a better FOV.

I too wasn't a fan at all! I'm not even a fan of the lore now per se, but I'm surely a fan of this game 👌I got a bunch of puffkeins running around in my pocket valley called Boogey, Bogey, Pinky and Porky. What more can a grown man ask for? Oh, and a unicorn I named Mielikki.

Hogwarts Legacy, whoop whoop! GOTY for sure. So much level of detail, good gameplay and just great fun. The Room of Requirements keeps expanding. HL is the game that keeps on giving 🥰
