I am thoroughly convinced that no one on the development team owns a switch. They have fucked up bedrock so hard on it, it’s frustrating.
Not sure how kids with no patience even fire the game up. About two mins into starting it’s still popping up with “loading resources.” How, how is a modern computer with no spinning disks still loading resources that late into the initialization??? I would expect that from my Atari 800…
Next, you used to be able to pop out of the game, and check things like your screenshots, and then pop back into the game. Now if you are in any online game (realm or just in a friends world) the second you hit the home button, you are gone. Disconnected. I frequently hit the wrong button to take a pic, and bam, out of the game. And sometimes to get the realms to show back up, I literally have to exit the damn game.
If you don’t start the game fresh, I notice that I have to click the button to sign into microsoft. Problem is, every single fucking time I do that it makes me sign in from a web browser and then allow the switch to sign in. The only way it to kill the game and let it start from scratch to go through the login process.
Let a realm you have created on the switch get too big, and you will have memory problems. Hey 200GB free on my microsd card, but hey there’s the error message saying there isn’t enough space. And if you say that’s a console restriction, it’s microsoft and nintendo, I am sure they can pull some strings to get that to work. Hell Fortnight was able to access mic and speaker for in game chat… I am sure microsoft can work this out if they even gave a shit.
You can fly, or row on ice faster than the shitty rendering can happen. Using elytra on the switch is just shit. And this is written in c++? Well, I will let the performance speak for itself.
For years there has been problems connecting to people running their own game, even on your own network. But have the done anything, nope. Just closed the Jira tickets when they had no activity. You know why they didn’t have any activity? Because they sure as hell weren’t working on them… It’s like they only do any testing on a pristine network in their lab. Guess what, the world isn’t lab quality internet, but they sure wouldn’t know it.
Should we even mention the actual Switch Edition Minecraft that they not only killed off, they took it off the store. If you had it before they removed it, you still can download it, but if you didn’t, tough shit I guess. And I hate to break it to them, that version was superior to the shit they have out now called bedrock…
How about our user ids. Forcing everyone to go to an xbox live account. Luckily I made a new account for my Switch only so it didn’t fuck with my real xbox id. But now between my xbox, switch, and a couple of Java edition copies I have a metric shitton of xbox live accounts, and the corresponding emails. What a bunch of shit, that I swore they came out and said they weren’t going to do when they first bought it.
Sorry, but microsoft has just proven themselves as a shitty company over and over in my opinion. Which gives me zero hope that any of this will actually be worked on. But hey we get some new mobs… (groan)
Thanks for listening to my rant.
Valheim if you want action, building, or relaxing things like chopping wood and breaking rocks. In more of a boardgame direction, there’s Sagrada, Dominion, Takenoko, Carcassonne, Istanbul, or Splendor. All of which I have played on my SD multiplayer. Usually these games end up using the left stick and the right track pad as the mouse, which seems to work fine for me.
but from complications of a rare tumor called a paraganglioma that can cause a fatal surge of adrenaline.
And this fatal adrenaline surge wouldn’t have happened if mr. murderer hadn’t knelt on Mr. Floyd’s neck. Or has he already forgotten the circumstances? Keep blaming the victim there dumbass.
Just curious what you are using. I have a domain as well, and occasionally consider setting up another email server for it. I also still have some old old accounts that are still linked to my domain email, but I just haven’t run an email server in years. Is it something turnkey that I don’t need to spend weeks configuring? In fact I might only turn it on long enough to receive emails so that I can change the accounts.
yt-dlp -F {youtube url} - Will list the different streams for you, which you can then individually download with “-f {stream number}”. You can use ffmpeg to put them all back together after. I know op asked for gui, but I figured I would point out the command line options just in case it was helpful.
Thanks for the card holder recommendation!! I was just sitting here trying to figure out what to get my boardgame peeps for their birthdays and needed something by this weekend. This should be perfect.
I tell you what, catch your tallywacker in a zipper just once and it will break you of this. Happened to me about 4 years old, and I vividly remember my dad having to yank the zipper back down. NEVER AGAIN.
