Could you please create a middle ground between the nuclear option (banning sites) and the whack a mole option of banning users. It would be effective to be able to ban communities (at least temporarily) during bot spam attacks while you wait for admins to police up their site. Could there also be a way for admins to notify other admins that their site is spamming garbage so that admins know that their board is the cause of a problem and what that problem is?

You’re verified, your account is fully functional. Enjoy!

It’s okay because, “I believe that you’re a ninja too…”

You can use a mouse and keyboard with iOS devices (iPad, Apple TV, iPhone…). I do it every day.

That’s why it’s a good thing that my 12.1 inch iPad Pro is compatible with XBox and PS4/5 controllers (wired and wireless). I don’t have to try to use the touch interface. Or I could use a keyboard and mouse with it. Also, I’m guessing you completely missed the Apple WWDC where they demonstrated an API kit that makes it possible to recode Direct X in to Metal. So, I’d call that a pretty solid shove for devs to make games. At least Apple is not anti-gaming going forward, right?

I can’t wait until Forgive Me Father II is released.

I had fun with Warhammer 40K Boltgun and Doom (2013… 2018?… the recent one)

You started by asking the definition of boomer shooter, which I responded to. Then you added the fact Doom 3 came out in 2005. Since your context was, “what’s the definition of a boomer shooter.” I responded to that.

Maybe next time frame your question better to get the information you’re looking for?

A game is called a boomer shooter based on several criteria. Usually they’re first person. Does that mean a third person shooter can’t be a “boomer shooter”? No.

Quake III is just one game that boomer shooters are based on. Doom (1993) is a game that boomer shooters are based on too. Neither one is a boomer shooter itself. A Boomer Shooter is a modern creation meant to replicate past play style, video style, and audio style too… It’s more than just “pixelated/voxelated…”

Warhammer 40k Boltgun

“Active” is an adjective. You intentionally left out the active part (posts, comments). When you consider we’ve existed for less the month and have 45 posts in Boomer Shooter… That’s 1.5 posts per day, our first month in existence. That’s activity. That’s active. Your cynicism not withstanding Team Red has existed for almost two weeks… It’s growing faster than any of the other communities on this board… Because “activity.” Really, if you understand activity and what it looks like and how it scales… We might believe you know what you’re talking about… Might.

This will help you find US based instances if that is what you are after.

Pull up a list of Lemmy instances with 100% uptime. That’s not a big list. Look for a location in the U.S. you find an even smaller list. And if your monolingual and speak English bestest… well, then you’re in the realm of a vary small list indeed.

lemmy.ninja is second on that list for size AND speed of growth. Plus, where else are you going to find communities that teach you how to use the Fediverse to your advantage? Drop by and subscribe to the boomer shooter community… We all know they did it right in lo-fi…

I’m providing a best guess on that. I may be wrong. Who knows maybe it’ll be “xtxt” or xt^2 pronounced “extasy.”

Each one of the graphics in the article is linked to a demo of a boomer shooter with a female protagonist. I even mention a few in the article. I talk about female leads, and then apply them to boomer shooters. I didn’t think it would be that unusual…

Nope, regret to inform you it was written by a human. Was this commented by an AI? Nah, who am I kidding… if an AI wrote the comment, it would have known to capitalize AI…

We whole heartedly support blasphemy!

This definitely gives you one.

As I haven’t seen the Steam Store page for BoltGun switch from Unsupported to Playable I would assume that is what was meant.
