Lafari, to asklemmy in Why is Australia the only "core anglosphere" country where voting is mandatory?

Isn’t that illegal? I think it’s legal in the UK though, someone told me it’s tradition to draw a big cross on the whole ballot paper and they actually count no-votes as distinct from non-votes, or something like that.

Follow-up question: If voting is mandatory, but you don’t want to vote for any of the parties, what are you expected to do?

Lafari, to asklemmy in Should I wait for the "Snyder cut" (director's cut) of Rebel Moon?

So it’s overly long and misuses its time. Wow.

I’m interested about the Army of the Dead sequel ‘Planet of the Dead’ as crazy as it sounds.

I found the new Avatar lacklustre as well. Dune wasn’t my thing either. Big hopes for the Jak and Daxter film but that’s mostly because I hope it will spawn a new game. Enjoying the fifth season of the TV show ‘Fargo’ airing at the moment which is mostly consistently good.

It gave me vibes of Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets but I suspect it won’t be anywhere near as good as that film sadly

Lafari, to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

I mean, Jak II got dark and gritty. No one really tried that again with 3D platformers.

A Hat in Time is an example. I really don’t enjoy that game. Idk why. But Yooka Laylee sucks as well. Pretty much every one just isn’t good. The graphics aren’t realistic or gritty like Ratchet, Jak and Sly for example, the worlds are empty or unexpansive. The combat is lacking. I could go on

There are no 3rd person shooter-platformers on the other consoles, I’ve used a bunch of consoles including N64 and GameCube. They just don’t have the same kinds of games. I wish people would look past the fact they’re old and assuming it’s just a nostalgia thing… I can explain why the PS2 platformers are more complex and detailed and better

Lafari, to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

If I could make games, I would definitely be making a Ratchet & Jak styled game, some kind of 3rd person shooter-platformer with detailed environments. But I just don’t understand why big studios don’t jump on the opportunity, instead the Jak franchise is dead (or dormant, still hoping for a return) and they only make Ratchet games occasionally, and no one seems to even attempt to make an original IP like those games despite their success and appeal and huge potential in next gen. It’s mind boggling

Lafari, to asklemmy in Why aren't modern 3D platformers as good as the PS2 era of 3D platformers?

I think it’s basically Ratchet & Jak, yeah. I would count Jak II and 3 in that genre, not Jak 1 so much although it’s a great game.
