His English isn't perfect but I find it cute the way he says some things because of that

#

Like he said at the recent event(contest maybe?) that he was gonna do his song 'Give Me Your Love's because he wants his fans to 'Give me them's love'

Just the way he says things makes me laugh sometimes. I love him way too much XD

I've racked up 26 days, 4 hours and 4 minutes on Palworld. Not bad!

so a little under half that

fringe raptor
#

No bad though! I have not played since the save wipe thing and just waiting on Microsoft to get that update certied

#

todays patch should help a bit with backups

#

not with the save corruption issue itself tho

fringe raptor
#

Yeah Some folks think its the initial booting up of the game can corrupt the save loading but if you shut the game down before auto save the corruption shouldn't happen

#

Probably some coding clashing with one another maybe? I'm no expert

#

luckily my servers had no issues

#

i have been backing the saves up manually to a different drive tho just in case

#

That's the best way to do it. Unfortunately for me, being on XSX I have to trust in my reflexes and quit out of the game if things go awry

and yeah you're not alone; this is the most negatively received announcement to date

# tranquil obsidian any feedback is good feedback, don't be afraid to voice negativity as long as it...

No, all feedback is not good feedback. Critical well thought out feedback is good feedback, mindlessly complaining about an update you don't like is not good feedback.

That's what led to the removal and nerfs of so much content in Craftopia when the entire story and tutorial were removed, and many puzzles made so stupidly easy that a newborn could figure them out.

The twitch rewards are a push for community engagement. many games do this but at least it's exclusively one platform for the rewards. Minecraft did the same thing for it's 15 year anniverthary except split it up onto multiple streaming services and gaming platforms. you had to buy it on both java and bedrock, as well as engage with users on twitch, tik tok, and online servers.

my comment was more in line with the thought of expressing dissatisfaction being a good thing for developers to work with. as Bucky stated in the pinned #1066919387921137724 post, the developers will decide what gets used or not

#

also, "community engagement" didn't really play out; there were literally people who enabled drops then didn't even stream the game lol

grand falcon
#

@wild mountain any ideas on what I should do today? I used a PTO and now I have no idea what to do with all this free time

I made plans to go to a restaurant called "Greek to me" for lunch, but other then that, I got no idea what to use my free time on

I'll bet a cookie if you look at the dropoff, it'll be related to a timezone's sleep schedule

The game will inevitably have dropoff as people get bored, burnout, play other games, or don't have time. This happens to every single bit of media

My confusion was that I thought all the things y'all kept sending was the number of refunds due to bugs or something. Didn't realize it was number of people who went to bed bc they have lives and people freaking out bc players aren't online 24/7

most of its playerbase is Chinese, so naturally the numbers will fall drastically during Chinese night time hours when people go to bed

Jesus christ, EU5 will also allow for Landless entities to exist as playable "nations", nations based on a fleet ( pirates, corsairs), nations based on militaries ( roaming mercenaries, warrior guilds) based on buildings ( bankers, traders, guilds in general) and even nations based on population, as in minorities like the Jews

I earned the golden rex skin and then I linked my twitch + steam and it says I've claimed it now but it's not in game?

I think Twitch drops are a great way to create a symbiotic relation between a game and content creators, it has worked wonders for games like Rust I believe

I think it's a good move strategically, even if some people hate it, what do y'all think?

All my chats are dead and I want to chat >.>

I am for and against it.
I feel at this stage of the game the time should have been spent elsewhere. So, for me, this update made me feel like resources were wasted.
But, I also do not do business and therefore do not understand when community things beed to be done. I do understand there is a need for community things and understand why this update came about. I just don't think the timing of this type of update was appropriate personally. I think it should have been a little further down the line or with one of the large updates.

tranquil obsidian
#

the issue is it's more a benefit for people who were already using twitch. for people who weren't, it's just forcing them to engage in a system they have no interest in, and generally speaking making people feel forced to do something rarely produces a positive outcome

This one I don't agree with because no one is being forced to do anything. Nothing being offered is necessary for the game to function or hindering gameplay. I don't like Twitch, so I am going to pass on participating in the update. Yes, I could make an account, link it, have it play in the background, I just don't see any of the things worth my time, effort, or tiny bit if electricity that will cost. But, I am not being forced to do anything.
Them doing this type of thing does show me they will have cosmetics, they will do events for cosmetics, and I can participate in collecting them in various ways.

night plume
# small berry I understand you'd want it back to back with a big update, maybe it's true that ...

I feel the bigger update would have given it more of a platform and made it feel like it was a cohesive thing instead of a separate team.

Most of my nay to the update is I am also experiencing many of the bugs I saw people coming into the chat and asking about after the last 2 patches. I've even fallen through my world after a Pal punched my character. I do understand different teams work different aspects, the update just makes one feel like assets are placed in areas that are not necessary at the time.

This is also why I said the "I don't do business" part. This may have been a better time to do something like this. It is not something I would understand. And this team may have worked on it expecting to release it at an earlier point or with something. Not something I would know.

I do think this should be a continued thing down the line though.

Messages get overlooked all the time. You just need to find a conversation you can jump in on. If you can't and are interested, ask about it and learn.

The more you complain about being ignored, the more people won't want to talk to you bc you come off as only wanting attention and not wanting to be part of a conversation.

The cult of the lamb server got on my nerves just now
I called the goat he and someone told me it’s actually they / them
I told them I really don’t care for a fictional character I play as it’s what I want to use when I’m playing as them
The mods practically gave me award for not respecting a fictional character pronouns

This is why I like Wildwoods the cats have none and doesn’t matter what you call them

ok apparently a community manager said at some point the canon was they/them but it also says on the wiki that you can use whatever you want for your character

They also made excuses, saying it makes the LGBTQ+ feel unsafe if you don’t use the proper pronoun

For the goat and lamb

so apparently the mods are just picking a side here

frozen bluff

#

if you're referring to the lamb generally then yeah it is technically correct to use they/them but if you're talking about specifically yours you can use whatever
but this is super hardcore nerd stuff I assign gendered pronouns to pals and pokemon that have male and female versions based entirely on a vibe and only one person who I consider a massive stinkwad ever corrected me

It's actually hilarious because Terraria's calamity mod has active safeguards against that

I haven't played it in a long time so I don't know if it's still a thing or not, but when I did, there was a setting that was active where if a weapon or moveset would do more than half a boss's health or did too high of a dps count, it would nullify it and it would do 1 damage instead

Disney World is arguing a man cannot sue it over the death of his wife because of terms he signed up to in a free trial of Disney+.

Jeffrey Piccolo filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Disney and the owners of a restaurant after his wife died in 2023 from a severe allergic reaction after eating at the theme park.

However, Disney argues its terms of use, which Mr Piccolo agreed to when creating his Disney account in 2019, means they have to settle out of court.

Disney have since withdrawn their claim apparently

Disney back pedaled when it became bad PR

“At Disney, we strive to put humanity above all other considerations,” D’Amaro said. “With such unique circumstances as the ones in this case, we believe this situation warrants a sensitive approach to expedite a resolution for the family who have experienced such a painful loss. As such, we’ve decided to waive our right to arbitration and have the matter proceed in court.”

You can taste the sleeze in that

When I read those contracts and sign them, I am agreeing to the arbitration with said company per the contract for the service I am signing about.

If I am using a different service, a different contract is required....

If I sign up for Disney +, that contract only covers THAT product

The fact that a company is trying to use it for another product means all services should be completely reqritten for every company

They know the judge is going to make a biased ruling against them, and that ruling will apply in more "petty" issues that would otherwise rule in favor of disney

Legally that’s true since you have to opt out that way, but that doesn’t mean companies don’t stretch the limits of what they can get away with.

So by withdrawing their claim, they basically save their wild card for later
