Finally someone tackles the lack of quantity in the video game market.

XML aims to be both human-readable and machine-readable, but manages neither. It’s only really worth it if you actually need the complexity or extensibility, otherwise it’s just a major pain to map XML structures to any sensible type representation. I’ve been forced to work with some of the protocols that people like to present as examples of good XML usage and I hate every single one of them.

Fuck YAML though. That spec is longer and more complex than any other markup language I know of and it doesn’t have a single fully compliant implementation.

“Body type”? Is obesity a body type?

I have yet to see anything in that game that’s not ripped from somewhere else. It’s an incredibly derivative collection of successful concepts. Other studios doing the same thing, to a lesser extent, doesn’t make it worthy of praise and other games have been called out for the same shit. Getting death threats unfortunately works like some kind of get ouf of jail free card for game studios, because social media is more obsessed with defending a company over the original criticism than any threats they received over it. Exactly like what’s happening in this thread.

Doesn’t deserve death threats though.

Nothing does and no one said anything to the contrary as far as I can tell.

Clearly no one if the death threats aren’t made up.

Damn, I guess the monster designs aren’t a ripoff, now that they’ve received death threats and clarified that the game isn’t a copy of the Pokémon gameplay loop.

Casually smurfing in CS

W-wow anon you’re so cool!

People who spread fud about x11

Who does that? X11 is ancient. It’s a known variable in every possible way. How would you spread FUD about it?

In reality the ones who advocate for Wayland the most are the people who used to thanklessly maintain X…

It already has improved. You’re just very ignorant in your idealism. I’ve used it at home and for work for at least 6 years now and the problems have honestly been way less than expected for an X replacement. Screensharing was probably the biggest hurdle initially, but even that has worked for quite some time now. The last remaining issues are pretty much down to individual applications.

You could not write an operating system even remotely comparable to Linux in that time with the ressources the Wayland devs had available.
