What happened to the turn based RPG and RTS genres?
  • I guess you're just playing the wrong ones, really. The Age of Empires games (specifically 2 remake) have been celebrating a decent comeback and AoE4 was released to critical acclaim. Of course Blizzard won't release anything worth your time anymore, but not everyone is Blizzard. As for turn based RPGs: They're more popular than ever and I genuinely don't know what you're talking about. Turn based JRPGs are hugely popular and even CRPGs can be hugely popular if done right.

  • Elon Musk’s X is now worth less than a quarter of its $44 billion purchase price
  • I guess my point is that it isn't worth an article in mid 2024 because it really only repeats what has been said a million times a about the subject. Even before it was bought. No one else would've paid much more than $9 Billion at any point because it is legitimately insane.

  • Austria's far-right Freedom Party eyes unprecedented election win
  • Post-pandemic idiocity (historically, far right politics become very popular after a pandemic, or so I've read) coupled with all the other issues. The filthy rich playing off the masses against each other being a big one. And of course it's Austria we're talking about. They're resilient to learning from past mistakes even when it was just a couple years ago. It's actually baffling how easily they swing from one side to another, but that's probably partly because it's a tiny nation.

  • Warum die Deutschen beim Sparen vergleichsweise erfolglos sind
  • Na ja warten wir mal die nächste Finanzkrise ab und schauen dann wie Deutschland im Vergleich abschneidet. High reward heißt eben auch high risk und da sind wir halt vorsichtiger, dafür aber auch resistenter. Und damit will ich nicht sagen, dass wir die klügeren sind. Ich denke aber, dass wir am Ende des Tages noch im Mittelfeld liegen.

  • YouTube Premium is getting a huge price hike in over a dozen countries, sparking user backlash. Some countries are experiencing hikes between 30% and 50%
  • You don't lose anything for the moment, but it might come back to bite you later regardless. Because Youtube needs to grow until the end of times but can't, it will end ugly one way or another. It's more of a symptom of a bigger problem than an isolated, 'smart' business decision.

  • YouTube Premium is getting a huge price hike in over a dozen countries, sparking user backlash. Some countries are experiencing hikes between 30% and 50%
  • Youtube doing what I told every Premium adversary they would logically do after dumping more and more ad space onto the site. And to make Premium look worth the price, they'll continue to shove more ads in your face just before, you guessed it, doing another price hike. Rinse and repeat. Premium users are strong drivers of this enshittification so I will continue to call them out on it whenever they tell you to join the scam as well. I'll stick to my ad blockers.

  • Lehrer schlagen Alarm wegen junger AfD-Wähler
  • Du hast halt das Xitter-Bubble Mindset. Wenn man sich die Aufrufe von rechtsradikalem Müll im vergleich zu anderen politischen Richtungen ansieht, wird sofort glasklar, dass antidemokratische Inhalte sehr stark auf TikTok verbreitet werden. Dass du das in deinem kleinen Mikrokosmos nicht wirklich mitkriegst ist teil des Problems.
