61·1 day agoI mean, I share the complaint of Discord having tons of unindexable knowledge locked away in it, but forums are not good replacement for my friend group. So yeah we kinda want a Discord alternative specifically.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadian Tire ordered to pay nearly $1.3 million for false advertising | Globalnews.caEnglish
1·2 days agoWhy should I care that a business which was breaking the law gets fined into nonexistence? Like, of course I feel for the workers, it’s not most of their faults, but if we believe in the free market then another will fill that gap.

1·2 days agoMy point was, why does that matter? They profited from false advertising; fine their total profits.

2·2 days agoBut you can’t quantify how much that trick earned them. How many customers went to Canadian Tire to buy that item, and then also bought others things while they were there? Would those customers have gone to Canadian Tire otherwise without that “sale”? Were they incentivized to spend even more because they thought they were saving money with that “sale”?

2·3 days agoInteresting to see this when I just posted about Memory Express doing the same thing last week. I don’t think MemEx does business in QC but could be wrong about that. Would love for this shit to be investigated and punished across all areas of the market.

41·3 days agothey can’t easily determine how much that specific trick influenced their profits
Why should the fine be based on that?

Games@lemmy.world•Xbox is planning a summer release for Halo remake and a late 2026 launch for Gears of War E-Day according to a new reportEnglish

Games@lemmy.world•The developers of PEAK, explaining how they decided on pricing for their game. English
17·5 days agoNah it’s still ten, especially if you grew up in a place that doesn’t include tax in the price. That’s easily getting to mid 8 after tax, and that might as well be ten.

Games@lemmy.world•FF7 on Steam Is Being Replaced (And Your Saves Won’t Carry Over)English
1·5 days agoI mean this came up when I posted the story myself, and I immediately tried to launch the game to test it and it worked fine. Another user reported it was fine too.
To be clear, I’m not defending them using their own account service for the cloud saves either, because it is dumb to do so when Steam offers that functionality.

44·5 days agoWhy do you say that? I thought that it was an interesting story. Miyazaki’s comments have cultural significance imho.

Games@lemmy.world•A Baldur's Gate HBO series is in the works, will be set directly after Baldur's Gate 3 with new and returning charactersEnglish
98·5 days agoThat’s such an exaggeration. Do you know how many people played BG3 without ever even knowing 1 or 2 existed, let alone played them?
Or hell, how many people played Witcher 3 without ever reading the books or playing the first two games.

6·7 days agoDon’t apologize for enjoying a game.
I saw someone holding an independence sign while running my errands this past weekend. Wanted to stop and give them a piece of my mind, but decided the time was better spent doing literally anything else.





















I’m inclined to agree with it being underwhelming.
