Vermain posted:being an isolated island that was at the forefront of the industrial revolution will do that to a mfer The English had managed to destroy their forest's before the Industrial Age ever began. I've heard it argued that the lack of wood, and the subsequent forced switchover to coal as means of heating and power contributed to the early industrialization of England compared to the rest of the world. No idea if that is actually true or just coincidence.

Infinitum posted:Wondering if it's possible to graft something like that back together. Probably a futile exercise for something that big and old They could, like, reforest that area in that tree's memory. Gaius Marius posted:The English had managed to destroy their forest's before the Industrial Age ever began. I've heard it argued that the lack of wood, and the subsequent forced switchover to coal as means of heating and power contributed to the early industrialization of England compared to the rest of the world. No idea if that is actually true or just coincidence. Oh yeah, deforestation in Europe really went hard in the Iron Age, because you need charcoal to make iron. And when you clearcut land, then you can raise crops and sheep on it. England isn't that big. Like, one guy doing it as a hobby could plant tens of thousands of trees in a single lifetime. This is a solvable problem. But instead they're probably just going to put up a big concrete memorial for the tree.

It's been a good year for games and anyone trying to claim otherwise is a wet blanket. Yeah, it's been a complete wasteland for most game developers, that's true. But that doesn't change the fact that I played a Zelda game and lost my mind for a month or so because of it. Don't lose sight of the bad, but don't deprive yourself of enjoying the good. Friggin internet, man.

I just looked through that person's tweets and absolutely every single one of them is entirely braindead so I don't think they alternate between good takes and bad, they just have bad takes. My favorite was the confusion/outrage around not being able to draw pixel art in Adobe Illustrator, the vector art program.

If it was, for some reason, placeholder music that they pulled from a library without checking the license expiry date, it might be just stupidity. But if that was the case I'd expect them to have immediately replaced it with a new one having updated music in it.

They can charge whatever the gently caress they want, it's up to consumers to decide what is worth it for them. I do it all the time, where I see something I want, notice the price is more than I'm willing to spend, and then just don't loving buy it. Grow up.

Have you considered that a large portion of the game's player base is children who do not have that sense of impulse control E: Hell, basically every F2P game makes its money by exploiting either children or people with addictive tendencies

Lol there's all kinds of goons so I'm sure somebody on these forums buys vbucks for something but I doubt anyone here was commenting about it because they were personally annoyed at the price increase for themselves. Also you're arguing some supply n demand poo poo like that's actually applicable to the absurd economies of 2023.
