Judging from my years in networking, not only most people, but many in IT see it as magic.

Ooh, that's a good one (recording).

Or one catches fire and makes national news, vs all the other cars that caught fire in the same timeframe that go unreported because it's not the new thing.

Use the cluster bombs on the mine fields, win win.

A remake of B&W with VR support is my dream.

They're subtle in a traditional game sense, but for a city sim these are huge. The way stuff works behind the scenes makes it more vibrant and lifelike, and makes the issues (weather events, traffic accidents etc) more fun.

Really happy to see people excited about these kinds of changes as I am. Cause this is the stuff that's going to make it the city sim for years to come.

This was my purchase too. I've been really into the boomer shooter renaissance that's been going on.

Also got the hammer watch four pack for me and some friends.

I think it's just changed over time. Reddit was really different ten years ago. Posts by the admins about changes or their actions regarding drama were more common for example.

That's a big part of it. And people can have so many different set ups now too. And there isn't time/funding to redo the mix for them all. There was a good article that covered some of the various reasons, I can't find it but some others...

The article I'm thinking of also mentioned mics changing, and actors not having to speak directly into it to get anything. So it opens up far more realistic acting, but makes capturing/mixing that dialogue more difficult.

It's just refreshing to have finally found something that's similarly structured (not discord/Forum based) and has decent activity. Once the apps start gaining traction, and I get a better feel for navigating this whole fediverse thing... Reddits just not going to be relevant.
