Love when players say “the devs didn’t even test this”
Hi. QA here. We tested it :) We voiced the same complaints you did :) People don’t like listening to feedback until it’s actual player reviews and it starts lowering the Steam ratings :)
I’m very tired :)

If I had a nickel for every time I looked at my top 10 songs on receiptify and it was all Sleep Token except for #8, which was KPop, I’d have 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s really funny to me that it happened twice

Y’all can complain about your issues with Z-A and that is 100% valid, but as someone who has loved Pokemon since 1999, the amount of joy I have playing this game is indescribable.

I’m here not to defend Nintendo, TPC, or GameFreak, but to talk about how QA works.
Unsure if GF has its own in-house QA team or if they use third party, but regardless, you’ll never have as many eyes on a game to catch as wide a variety of bugs until the game gets shipped. 🧵

I know I’ve said this before, but I am so very tired of how Gamers (derogatory) talk about QA, especially if a game comes out in a rocky state.
Babes, we FIND the bugs. We don’t FIX them. 9/10 times, the shit you’ve found is shit we’ve found; higher ups just decided it wasn’t worth the time to fix.

Nonna passed this morning. I’m happy she’s finally not in pain anymore.
But the petty bitch in me wants to go to the hospital and go “SEE? SHE WASN’T FINE YOU FUCKERS! 🖕🖕”
But the petty bitch in me wants to go to the hospital and go “SEE? SHE WASN’T FINE YOU FUCKERS! 🖕🖕”
I don’t fucking know how they can look me in the eyes and say “she has a few hours to live” and then turn around and go “uhhhh she ate two spoons of porridge so she isn’t eligible for palliative anymore. gtfo of the hospital 🥰”
The person who was my reason for not “self-deleting” — as the kids would say — is in palliative care and has anywhere from a few hours to a few days.
The voices have started again. I haven’t had intrusive thoughts this strong in quite some time. It’s exhausting.

I cannot explain the rage I feel inside when I have my hand raised in a meeting for over 15 minutes and they don’t actually call on me until 1 minute before the end of the meeting when I don’t have to time to articulate all the questions and concerns that came up while I was in limbo.

Things come and go, and I don't begrudge romantasy its moment in the sun, not in the least because when people come into the bookstore for that romantasy book, they sometimes leave with additional books in tow. Any book that brings people into the store is a good one for the rest of them.
Right now, you can see the Scifi section shrinking each time you go to the bookstore to make more room for fantasy because of the fairy!porn popularity and the pan to publish more romantasy. I just wish it's popularity didn't take shelves away from Scifi (which once you remove the dune shelves...)

I just found out the way I hold pens/write is referred to as “hyper grip” and is very common for people with ADHD/autism bc it impacts fine motor skills.
I prefer this explanation over the “serial killer handwriting” thing I saw a few months ago 😂
