@akjcv@types.pl how is this even pronounced??

@wallhackio uhh define problematic

• skyward sword completely changed, and largely created anew from whole cloth, the legend of zelda mythos. fans who were around before it released don’t necessarily like where it wound up taking the series.

• the backstory to skyward sword itself is inconsistent and doesn’t really hold up to scrutiny.

• skyward sword essentially posits the hylians as a divinely-chosen, colonizing race, which has weird and sus ethno-nationalistic vibes if you actually take it seriously.

@packetcat @noracodes i think it’s been more a shift in perspective, honestly

like, apple has messed things up before. the original macOS was not good. leopard was not good. but they were professionals about it and said “you know what? next version, zero new features. we’re just fixing shit.” and they released snow leopard and it was the best desktop OS ever made. they understood that people depended on their software working and were willing to invest in dependability.

but recently, i don’t think apple does see themselves that way. i think they see themselves primarily as a luxury brand for rich executives who mostly just need a computer for zoom calls, or as a status symbol for people in the middle class to set themselves apart. i think there are arguments in favour for an annual release cycle; a lot of tech these days happens annually, notably Unicode, and it keeps web browsers current and enables things like Swift to evolve at a good pace. but their priorities are all wrong; they’re not treating it professionally anymore. they’re targeting people who don’t really need their product with flashy features instead of ensuring they have something stable and reliable for the people who do.

@aescling made in heights and edelgard hresvelg from fire emblem have very similar vibes
