    Fair enough. I assumed wrong, we actually think somewhat similarly on the matter

    Is it mismanagement if the reason it's only on one console at launch is because the devs want to get each game out as soon as possible, only having to focus on one piece of hardware? They also got more money to make the make the games as big as they are due to making that console the playstation and having Sony invest in timed exclusivity? Seems like a win-win to me. Doesn't stop Sony from having extremely ludicrous metrics in which they expect their games to measure up to though. Which is ultimately why it seems every game they release never meets them.

    Only if you keep getting new ones though and doing it DIY is pretty good too. Don't think I'd buy another keyboard again after building my current DIY one. Instead I'll just be designing my own from what I've learned that I've liked with this current one.

    This is true. I've gotten to the point where I can now type QWERTY and Colemak-dh on a standard, ortholinear or ortho columnar keyboards with no issues.

    Look into DIY keyboards you can get PCBs created of the keyboards you like the look of for pretty cheap nowadays. You just need to be willing to solder, there's not many small bits for keyboards so it's not that hard.

    Moving away from qwerty to colemak-dh did more for my tendonitis than the keyboard itself. Having both an ortho linear / columnar stagger keyboard and a better layout is the end goal though. But the layout makes the biggest impact.

    Then the next biggest impact will be getting a keyboard with a thumb cluster so you can do more with your thumb in a comfy position rather than your pinkies stretched out to the edges of the keyboard.

    Ortholinear is a great gateway into better keyboards and a better layout. I started with a planck and used it to learn colemak-dh. I have since moved to a more DIY split keyboard with a columnar layout which is ortholinear except the volume are staggered to fit the length of fingers better.

    This journey has been a godsend in helping my RSI issues from my Dev job.

    Why are Sony obsessed with remaking ps4 games? If you're going to dip into an anyway established IP, why not choose one where we haven't had a new game in forever. Like Jak, Sly etc.

    VII remakes are way different to the OG. Have you even seen footage of it? The camera is nowhere near the same as the original

    I for one am glad they did it. It's breathed so much more life into the world in doing so. OG is a great game but I've been enjoying the remakes way more. And FFVII OG is my favourite RPG and one of the first games I ever played, I used to replay it every other year.

    Yep, main movies are awful everything else they did ranged from good to great (although not watched acolyte). With some better than Lucas' star wars, yet most people act like Disney ruined it. Without Disney, we'd be getting next to no star wars at all.

    The only thing that stops me from playing the sims 2 as my main is that Sims outside of the current household don't age and if you ever achieve platinum status (which is surprisingly easy) there's no challenge in the game anymore. Because needs barely matter anymore.

    I was once trying to do a "realistic" run with my sim starting in a trailer park and eventually working my way up the property ladder. I got platinum before i moved out of the trailer.

    3 would be the best if it was stable and had the moodlet system of 4. At least for how I want to play the Sims.

    I love me the PS2 era need for speed games.

    Burnout 3 & revenge.

    Dirt 2 has one of the best licensed soundtracks for a game, same for the OG Forza Horizon.

    Modern ones, even horizon 4 and 5 feel very hollow compared to these in my opinion.

    Super Woden GP 2 is an outlier to that though.

    I long for the days of yore, but I never really got into MMOs until WOW and I've always been jealous heating the stories of people playing MMOs prior.
