  • You must not be outside then

    In the communities where this music is popular, there are definitely a lot of classic songs coming out that aren’t just background noise, and they actually turn up the clubs.

    To people outside of these communities it might seem like they only survive 5 years, but if you’re inside you’ll recognize patterns in songs that keep coming up and that people listen to the most. That’s what really makes them classics, not just random people on Lemmy deeming them as such.

    Bad bunny, El Alfa, Tokischa, Chucky73, RaiwAlejandro, and Daddy Yankee have all been relasing songs that the community will remember for a long time and deem classics. Reggaeton is going through a second, smaller, golden age and it will be remembered.

    Your comment sounds a bit racist ngl




  • The same MFs on here that rush to tell someone that Linux is easy and intuitive are the same ones that can’t keep a small talk conversation for more than 5 mins, a social activity that humans have been doing for thousands of years.

    My words might be a little broad, harsh, and even hurtful, but just a reminder that not all of us are good at learning the same things.

    We didn’t all come out of the womb knowing how to socialize or use Linux, but if we look back far enough, we can all relate to the struggles it takes to learn something new, and how much it sucks when someone treats you like you’re stupid just because things sometimes don’t click


  • Maybe you’re not as excited because you’re not the target audience anymore.

    Think of the biggest games of the last 10 years, they’ve all been community centered games. Among Us, Minecraft, Call of Duty, Fortnite, GTA Online, Fall Guys, etc.

    I think we just grew up in a different era. I grew up playing on the PSX but my younger brother grew up on the PS4. I’m still playing the Tony Hawk remaster by myself and my younger brother is playing online games with like 6 people in the call.

    I look forward to the story, but my younger brother looks forward to the online where he can have his own character and create his own story with his friends.

    Gaming in general is moving in a community direction and I don’t blame Rockstar for moving in that direction as well.


  • Yeah not sure why people want the single player to last forever lol. To me it makes sense for them to focus on the Online afterwards since that’s what will stay alive after people finish the single player.

    I don’t see an open world game lasting as long as a sandbox game without a ton of bloat… kinda like those super long and repetitive Ubisoft campaigns people always complain about…

    I haven’t played online since like 2015, but I personally liked playing through the missions with my friends






  • Currently, I’m in between games. Tried Divinity Original Sin 2, my first CRPG, but it felt overwhelming. Planning to revisit it during Christmas break.

    Gave New World a shot, found it boring, got a refund. I would rather spend those $20 on something better.

    Enjoying the Tony Hawk remaster, likely to finish it in the next week or so.

    Playing GTA IV, but it’s gotten dull after 3 hours. The story is interesting, but the gameplay feels like I’m just running errands.



  • Whenever I hear this quote I also think of the developers/publishers. They need to have a good reputation so people buy their games.

    I think that’s why EA, Blizzard, Ubisoft, Activision, etc sales have gone down. I will not say that gamers react fairly when it comes to unfinished game releases, but it takes one bad game to ruin a developer. Especially when you consider how small the margins are or if they are publicly traded. Even developers with good games have recently been going out of business because it’s not sustainable.

    I also think of their legacies. Especially in a post-steam world, a game with a good legacy will continue to sell for much longer. I don’t think a game like Watch Dogs ever got rid of the stink surrounding it, even though it isn’t a bad game to go back to nowadays.
