And step six is "Profit"

Yep, my comment was written pre-coffee. Why dyou ask?

Also I saw a post recently which days that Trudy was the most efficient language in terms of information exchange, so I shouldn't really be making jokes about its efficiency.

It would be more like <<image pris par appareil-photo qui possède de la fonque>>

I agree it would have been a classic without the mods. What I'm saying is it's better than a lot of other classics, as a gaming experience, because of the mods.

Skyrim is a classic game, and there are always going to people playing it, like there will always be people playing Half Life 2, Mario and Tetris. But I think what makes Skyrim stand out is that it's still exciting a decade later because it's still changing and improving. Amazing groups of people are dragging that game into every new generation and changing it in every way imaginable. It has infinite replay value. So it has the draw of just being a great vanilla game but also the benefit of mods. It's safe to say it wouldn't be anywhere near as popular today without the huge library of mods.

But it holds up thanks to the mods that are available for it now. Mods which are all developed by not-Bethesda. Vanilla Skyrim doesn't hold up in 2024, modded Skyrim does.

That sounds like a threat?

All songs should be taken literally, which is why I eat love and prayers, and have a restraining order against me for trying to drag Hozier into a church at knifepoint.

I'm not sure becoming desensitised to trauma is an effective strategy either. That suggests that we stop caring about what's going on.
I'm in the same situation, 2016-2020 was a stressful time. Constantly trying to keep up with each horrible new development, about which I could do nothing but despair, became an unhealthy obsession. I don't want to do that again. I'm not a political scientist, and I neglected my own personal growth and development becoming an armchair expert in politics because I could see what was happening. This time I'm going to focus on myself and the people around me because that's all I can do. The world will keep turning. If I have the opportunity to do something positive, I'll take it.

Fair enough.

Good point. The stupids aligned with the evils on this one.
