If you approach it with a standard videogame attitude (get the strongest weapons and most powerful skills, steal everything that is worth good money and so on), then it is a solid game.

If you approach it as a simulated tabletop rpg game, it is fantastic. You can experiment with all sorts of things. For example: in one fight I was outnumbered and cornered in a small room, with enemies coming from outside. I pulled some furniture in front of the door to block the passage, threw some oil on the ground in the other side and lit it with a torch, then hid my characters behind the walls out of any projectile’s path until I could fully heal them.

Unlike other games those weren’t things that the devs put there specifically for this fight. There was no button prompt suggesting the furniture could be moved or anything like that. They just put a bunch of stuff in the world that can be interacted with in many ways depending on what sort of skill you have and leave it up to you to find a way to use them, or not. You can still min-max your stats and ignore all that. You won’t even know you’re missing anything.

I realized I had overdone it when two weeks in they were going to send me a free hoodie shipped from a different continent.

At least I ran out of things to buy there.

Who even still uses apple devices in 2023?

Eh, no need to bring the iOS/Android fight into this. OP saw an opportunity for a joke and took it. The butt of the joke is iOS because that’s what the sub is about. If it were for android the same joke could be made, though folks would probably make different ones with other more glaring issues that Google has.

Opera has in the past been caught passing all of its users’ data through their servers, decrypting and re-encrypting it there all while telling the users that the data was encrypted end-to-end.

Is it ever not having one? Brave is one of the shittier browser companies out there.

Sadly that sort of thing got so common where I work that I’ll run the tests three times before considering looking into the error message to see if it is something I broke.

From time to time we take some days just to fix tests with inconsistent results, but there’s always more popping up.
