limitedduck@awful.systemsto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Balatro Dev Calls Out PEGI For "Real Gambling" Rating Hypocrisy Vs. EA Sports FCEnglish9·7 months agoIt’s true that playing for money is a huge part of playing poker at all, both casually and professionally. Does that mean a game just teaching poker hands should be considered as adult as actual gambling? If so, a game like The Binding of Isaac should get the same 18+ as Balatro since it has actual slot machines that you put money into, but instead it gets a 16+.
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Balatro Dev Calls Out PEGI For "Real Gambling" Rating Hypocrisy Vs. EA Sports FCEnglish6·7 months agoAgreed that it’s ridiculous, but there are plenty of other games out there that are less objectionable, like ones that are played almost exclusively by kids.

So he’s taking his frustrations out on the reader by padding his article with sympathy-bait? I’ve come to really dislike Rock Paper Shotgun articles lately
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Back 4 Blood 2 appears to be a thing, which is a shame, because I'd rather play a new EvolveEnglish2·8 months agoI’d like to remember Evolve more fondly than I do, but I just didn’t have as much fun with it as I hoped. My strongest memories are of feeling annoyed at a constantly recharging jetpack
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Can I have my cursor on at the end of the URL instead of selecting all of it, when I focus on the URL bar?13·9 months agoDefault is probably select all because most people interact with the address to either copy the address or clear it to enter a new address. I empathize though

How many people that go free climbing actually fall to their deaths though? Were those people not being careful?
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Cloud Imperium quietly steal Star Citizen developers' weekends from under them with mandated overtime in the lead up to CitizenconEnglish33·10 months agoWho okayed this article? It’s just a signal boost of the Inside Gaming article with nothing new added besides anti-Cloud Imperium fluff. Also, they actually misrepresent the lieu time given, conflating the Citizencon lieu time for the Squadron 42 lieu time that has a restriction on when it can be used. As far as the original article goes, there aren’t any know restrictions on the former.
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Gaming@lemmy.zip•Resident Evil and No More Heroes creators join long list of devs who think Metacritic is bad for game devEnglish3·10 months agoThis makes sense coming from Suda51. I imagine other devs whose games have mostly cult followings would agree as well. Metacritic has the exact same problems as Rotten Tomatoes.

Would like to use it because it’s more up to date than wine-ge, but mouse sensitivity just doesn’t feel right in comparison
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Anyone with problems with duckdns DynDNS?English1·11 months agoI used to rely heavily on duckdns and it was great for a time, but moved off them a couple of years ago because resolution became inconsistent. I’ve since rolled my own ddns using a script that utilizes Porkbun.com’s DNS record API.

limitedduck@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is anyone else having trouble with DuckDNS today?English4·1 year agoThis will be of zero help to you if your registrar isn’t Porkbun, but I’ve recently stopped using DuckDNS in lieu of this.
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is anyone else having trouble with DuckDNS today?English2·1 year agoDuckdns has been inconsistent for me as well for the past year. Have you considered alternatives?
limitedduck@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is anyone else having trouble with DuckDNS today?English3·1 year agoI believe the nameservers are what respond to domain resolution requests. Nameservers not responding could mean they are down. If there’s no backup and the domain is resolved using one of those servers, then that might explain it not working.
Fantastic, thanks for this. Any reason you didn’t go to 17?
