It's a 3D first person game instead of a 2D isometric, and most of the differences stem from that. More manual building (they added blueprints but I don't know how good they are), infinite resource sources which means setting up a mining outpost is permanent. Much less focus on fighting wildlife, though that is present.

Overall, it's a much more relaxing, slower paced game than Factorio. Both are good at different aspects of the same thing.

I’m totally open to being in a relationship with someone, but they would have to be one helluva person to make me want to give up being single!

In terms of gameplay I think the Sheikah Slate functions were mirrored on the Wii-U pad (at least that was likely the original intent.

The Wii-U emulator was also a lot more developed when BotW released, so if you pirated it at launch the Wii-U version was the one to go with.

The two things that have helped me with scrolling Lemmy have been:

1. Setting the default sort to Top posts of the last six hours. I can still see most of the interesting discussion, but get down to newer, less active threads within a few pages. Then I want to give it a few more hours for more activity to form.
2. Setting a generous screen time limit of 2 hours a day. Combined with the first I feel a need to space out when I browse Lemmy to ensure I see most of the daily activity.

It looks a lot like Dying Light in terms of parkour. If it has an open map/open world design, I hope it scratches the same itch.

It is punishment for not bringing a helmet themselves. There are a lot of things people are shamed for that they shouldn’t be, but experiencing shame can motivate one to change their behavior to avoid shame in the future. If being shamed for not bringing a helmet influences them to bring one in the future or not ride a bike without a helmet, that’s a good thing.

I’m not too surprised. The last show of theirs I heard about was a generic magical girl show, except it was sponsored by some car company so their broomsticks had tail lights and blinkers on the back.

The legacy of Evangelion is in Studio Khara ran by Hideaki Anno, and the legacy of Gainax has been in Studio Trigger since 2013 when Kill La Kill came out.

For everyone wondering, this is northbound I-35E in Eagan, MN, just east of Moonshine Lake. If you drop a streetview pin in Google Maps you can see the sign.

There are several good total conversions for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Star Trek Armada 3 is the most complete overhaul I’ve played for it. I’m a big fan of Halo spaceships and the Sins of the Prophets mod is the closest thing I’ve seen capture the asynchronous battle between UNSC and Covenant ships. There are others for Star Wars and Stargate that I hear are good, but I have not tried them.

Should a good essay not have an introduction that goes over some of the actual information in the video and establishes the tone/method of delivering that information?

If you’re trying to say that the introduction is not representative of the quality of the rest of the video, you should argue that instead of the rather lame argument that not watching something in it’s entirety prevents any commentary on that thing. It goes hand in hand with someone saying they watched the whole thing and didn’t like it, then asking why they watched the whole thing if they didn’t like it?

There’s a finite amount of time in this life, and every moment spent doing one thing means not doing another. Giving anything stumbled across on the internet 20 minutes of your time to determine if another 3 hours is worthwhile is a decent commitment. When I’ve done that I’ve not made a comment about it because I’d rather let the people who did like the video enjoy it than throw out some negativity, but it’s a completely valid approach to curating one’s time.

I’m open to being corrected, but my guess would be the long time gap between the original colonization of the east coast and the spread west of there. In 1776 US borders extended to Pennsylvania, so when settlers started moving to Ohio and beyond I imagine they would have called it “The West” until they realized how much west there really was.

How did you decide on $1,000,000? That seems very low.
