It did at launch, then they nerfed it in the dark days of early patches.

I miss the ludicrous 1200RPM mode.

No, it wasn't very practical, but was practicality ever the point? Of anything in this game?

what the fuck is that painting above Epstein's fireplace?

[–] archonet@lemy.lol 2 points 2 weeks ago

certainly, but I live in the US, so that's automatically socialism and you're automatically commie scum for suggesting it.

sorry, thems the rules

I had a very autistic argument about trains a while back and got told I was gaslighting them for disagreeing.

with respect: this is as opposed to a not very autistic argument about trains? I'm pretty sure all arguments about trains are extremely autistic. Source: I have autism, and while not my thing, I know train enthusiasts who sometimes talk about their hobby.

Good God, I never thought someone could have such hard opinions on British rail schedules from the 1980s.

Oh I know they're bullshit.

Still would've been left with a crippling amount of debt for something I had no control over if not for insurance, no matter what the actual number would've been.

right? This goes so far beyond typical "not the onion" fodder, it belongs in a community named I Can't Believe It's Not The Onion.

I spent six weeks in the hospital in the US, and my bill (before insurance) was over $400k.

There's those of us who remember being sold complete products for our entertainment and don't like being milked, and those of us (unfortunately) who grew up only having ever known incomplete games that the developers drip-feed back to the consumer in the form of DLC.

Some games are going to fuck you over, some quite badly, and some games will not. Helldivers 2 and DRG don't, or at least, don't yet. Enshittification comes for everything, eventually, especially with Sony and Tencent having their fingers in the pie; so get in while the gettin's good. The day HD2 starts making the microtransactions painful, I'm outta here.
