@Lucy I played TP quite a while after it released and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it given the criticism it was receiving at the time
@Lucy if you can handle reading Angy Gamer Content then this reaction thread to the review is pretty amusing: https://www.gamespot.com/forums/nintendo-fan-club-1000001/zelda-review-discussion-here-only-25150082/
@Lucy From what I recall the reception to the game has been cyclical. It was initially very well received and then heavily critiqued, and from what I can gather in the past five-ish years its getting a more appreciation again
I know for sure I am correct about this because I remember GameSpot's 8.8/10 for the game being a genuine controversy amongst certain gamer types lmfao
@Lucy how do you feel
@holly oh its metal

@vaporeon_ I don't have strong feelings on the matter myself. But the beautiful thing about coding conventions is that you can ignore them and do whatever you want
@vaporeon_ these days developers tend to prefer clarity over brevity. it's very normal to write extra code if the programmer thinks it is easier to understand that way
@coriander this pun is so dumb that it made me decide to go to bed, thanks
@vaporeon_ I am doing a teeny bit of DevOps shit for my blog's build pipeline, so yeah it's not like you should avoid it entirely
@vaporeon_ complicated DevOps configurations are worth doing in large software teams but it is often overengineering to do so on a personal project
@vaporeon_ DevOps is good and important but I personally dislike managing it.
It's easiest to describe DevOps through example. It's when you do things like have gitlab run a test suite when you push to a certain branch
