Obviously as a kid I thought the Nintendo of the mid90s was the best. But over the years I've come to realize just how much of a flop that era was.
Still love my N64 collection though and even to this day finding new gems.

I've been playing through Fallout New Vegas for the first time. Got it modded to look modern too so that's been a really nice touch. New Vegas Reloaded is a bitch to get running but so worth it.
Fallout 3 was my very first Fallout and played it way back when it came out, then proceeded to skip new Vegas and played thru 4 back when that one released.
All this time I was time I was like damn, 3 is my favorite only because of nostalgia and actually ran a quick play thru back in April when all the Fallout hype started because of the TV show.
But I also bought New Vegas finally during this hype and am almost done with my first playthrough and wow I get why it's considered the best Fallout game.
The RPG elements are perfection, the stories are so interesting and gameplay is challenging but fair. I'm so glad I can now understand all the hype behind this game.

I'm just one of the oddballs. I never played NV until this year and I've really enjoyed it and I know objectively it's a better game. The reason I choose 3 or NV is simply because I have good memories when I was younger playing a gaming genre id never experienced prior.

I never played 76 or the two originals from interplay. Between 3 NV and 4, it's always hard to top your first. And playing F3 was my first and an experience. I hadn't played the elder scrolls before this and was just amazed with freedom that these open world RPGs gave you. Yeah so gonna have to go with F3 for the sole reason of nostalgia.

Geezus the story isn't ass. I know you prefaced with it just being your opinion, but with a charged comment like that's it's hard not to want to push back.

I asked my brother this who's a huge fina fantasy fan and he says it's the best story wise since 10. 13 is just boring, 15 is so convoluted and bloated. 12 is pretty good but the retread in Ivaice always felt like a cop out. 16 is the most consice FF story wise in years.

They plan to support the switch 1 for ten years so you have a few years still. You also have a huge library of games to check out, so don't worry so much if a Switch 2 comes out next year.

How about the fact that baby Metroid was so important it still comes up all the way into Metroid 5.

Damn a kinetic sculpture. I've never gotten huge into Lego, just like watching people build on YouTube. But this one I might consider.

What's really interesting is to look at the time scale when each our pets were first domesticated. Dogs domestication happened between 20,000 and 40,000 years ago, while the cat started becoming domesticted only 4000 years ago. Pretty crazy to think how much of a difference their is in the time it took each of them to become adaptive to human society. Makes you wonder what house cats will be like given the time frame dogs have had.
Hopefully things change once lemmy.world updates to 0.19 with scaled sorting. And maybe you guys and gals have some advice for fixing my issue. To keep my feed fresh I subscribed to all the big communities full of memes. They do have engagement beyond funny jokes, but I'm tired of how political everything is. I'm not trying to bury my head in the sand, on the contrary, im highly aware how much fascism has taken its grips on the world. But I don't need to be reminded everytime I'm on lemmy. So I'm hoping once scaled sorting is on lemmy.world, the lemmyverse will transform. I hope I start seeing my hobbyist community come to life. Or if people have recommendations for large communities not full of politics that works too. Maybe memes and shitposts aren't for me.
A public lecture from a scientist adding to the conversation. What makes this lecture interesting is he is not disproving that alien life can exist, but instead trying to curb expectations because of the little data we have to back up claims. More importantly is the message that it is important for scientists to be care of biases when discussing this topic.

Kurzgesagt took 4 years to put together this video. It's quite profound if you stick with it, with a great soundtrack. We really have been here in the blink of an eye.
A couple weeks behind, but life's been busy. Can't believe its been 9 years since Pink Lemonade! But this album was worth the wait. I absolutely love how his voice reminds me of Cedric Bixler-Zavala from the Mars Volta. Rock music has been good lately.
Lemmy is still small and growing, so trying to use your subscribed feed of smaller communities, mixed in with larger communities leaves you with a very uneven feed as your scroll. I like being subscribed to the largest Technology community, but also I am subscribed to the Movies and TV community. One is more active with posts and more comments, and the other is not so much. In this scenario, the current algorithms will always show a feed full of technology posts for pages, and you wont end up seeing Movies and TV until you scroll for a awhile. I understand that the issues is, "The community isn't active enough". Fair. But could prioritizing smaller communities in the algorithm help these small communities become more active then? If there was way for the subscribed feed to better spread out all of your subscribed communities over your front page, I think this would help smaller communities get more attention. Plus it would be nice to see my smaller communities showing up at the top of my feed. Instead it shows 5 Lemmy Shitposts, 5 Memes and 5 Technology posts, before I see anything else. Im no programmer, so Im not going to act like I think this would be easy or possible, but I thought id throw this idea out there and maybe it will get some traction.
They haven't done anything innovative in a quite some time, but they are consistent. Still love their style and sound.
Does Spotify have a way to see if your computer is recording with your DAC's stereo mix? And if so, is there a way around it?
So these guys have really travel across the genre-verse. I think their entire discography is great, but there has been a slow evolution of their sound over the years. I think its great a this band can keep up with quality and change after 14 years.
Hailing from South Africa and giving us some neo-psychedelia you would expect from the Aussies.
Millionyoung is the other chillwave artist that kicks ass (beside neon indian) still going strong with new tunes.
Is there an on going recorded list of the defederated Instances from lemmy.world?
