Do you volunteer to have a stroke induced so researchers then can test their treatment?

Well, as they have spent years and years moving production and therefore knowledge to China that was to be expected.

Yeah yeah, the usual “we show both sides, you be the judge”-crap. Conveniently forgetting i.e. that “Remigration” not only includes people without legal status in Germany, but everyone considered not-“biodeutsch”.

I interpreted it as “Holiday that lasts forever because the company can’t work anymore” but I guess it is meant to mean “Holiday that lasts forever cause you got fired”?

If a feature request requires changes of such a magnitude it is important to break them down into smaller chunks that can be reviewed either independently or sequentially.
I have never rejected a PR before because no matter how bad a PR is, it always is technically necessary for the feature.
Define bad? If the PR contains lots of unnecessary changes such as formatting or renaming simply tell the person to roll them back and come again unless they have very good reason to do so.
If the code quality is bad, well, that’s why you are doing the review. If all that matters was “Does it do what it is supposed to do most of the time?” some simple unit tests would be enough. Reviewing code means making sure it does what is supposed to do and does so in an acceptable manner. Criteria can be amongst others speed, security, ease of use or maintainability.
- Insecure handling of inputs? Add sanitisation and resubmit.
- Overusage of resource intensive features such as database queries? Group and optimize queries and resubmit.
- The codes formatting is not according to the internal style guide? Configure your damn linter and resubmit.
- …
If you don’t want to close PRs outright you can request new commits that fix the issues you identified, reevaluate the PR and decide again.

on Darksiders 4 & the next game in the Kingdom Come franchise are expected to release in FY 2027/28 (April 2027 - March 2028) in c/games@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
Well, it’s less about the historical events but the implications these events might have for the upcoming game that I don’t want to spoil for people.
and start the player on fresh ground without having to hit his head to reset him back to a low level character sheet.
Well, obviously Henry lost all but his smithing skills while working in Skalitz for a couple of years. Just making stuff up but here’s my take:
- Hans gets married off
- Henry moves with Theresa back to Skalitz
- … time passes …
- Hans shows up in Skalitz because he is dying of boredom from being a “responsible adult”
- “Henry mate, I heard our friend X has this thing going on. Let’s go and check it out”
- “Na, mate. I am good here. It’s not much, but it’s honest work”.
- Erik shows up with a war band from the opposing side, using the new conflict for his own vendetta.

Henry's reaction
Edit: Aaaaaaactually Henry being in the new game makes perfect sense. Theresa mentions specifically in game one that she wants to go to Prague and see the guy responsible for the whole mess that is about to go down. So yeah: Henry and Theresa go to Prague get caught up in the whole affair, and we can either pick playing as Henry or Theresa or play Theresa and there is no need for a character reset for Henry.
Guess they should hire me as a writer if that’s not what they have come up with already.

There’s a pretty significant main character of KCD2 that, I’m told, the thing he’s known for in history has not happened yet by the time KCD2 ends.
Historical "spoiler"
Yes, Jan Žižka is one of the leaders in the Hussite Wars that follow soon after KCD II. I also think that the wars are going to be the theme of the next game, because the brewing conflict has been hinted at in game one and two already.
But in my opinion it is very unlikely that they will be the main character of the new game for storytelling reasons. If you are the figurehead of a movement you can’t simply walk up to the other side and explore their motives. Which is the same reason why KCD 1 and 2 features Henry and is not played from the point of view of i.e. Sigismund of Hungary. A minor character is needed, so the player can move between parties and see and understand both sides of the conflict.
Plus he has a pretty solid conclusion to his story at the end of 2.
The more I thought about it, the more I was agreeing with you. Hans is going to be married off for political reasons and Theresa is waiting for Henry back at Rattay. However, no matter what you do there is one loose end that is specifically brought up in every conversation at the end: Erik, who is out for Henry’s blood.
