• I think title case has been made mostly obsolete online where title distinction can be made in a bazillion other, nicer ways. Especially here, where the title is basically all you see before clicking through. 🤷‍♂️ My two cents.

• I think the ideal would be to stop unnecessary capitalization. 🙂

  Why do you want capitalization?

  on Castlevania: Belmont's Curse Hands-On Preview: What a Wonderful Night to Have a Curse in c/games@lemmy.world · 4d ago

• I did get it after a few seconds, thanks.

  I know it’s “correct”, it’s just very bad. There really is absolutely no need whatsoever for using capitalization like this. Zero defensible point to it, IMO. All it serves to do is add extra mental overhead. Just like the weird “why use many word when few ok” grammatical structure.

  It only sounds extremely pretentious to me. Especially when sometimes the author doesn’t really master the language in the rest of the article. (Not saying this was the case here though.)

  In this case I would flip the first part and “spend” an extra tiny [word] to make it more clear:

  Hands-on review [of] Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse — what a wonderful night to have a curse

  Notice how much easier it is to isolate the name of the game, and the lack of capitalization makes it faster to read. At least in my opinion.

• I don’t like it when titles that contain names of things have all their words’ initials capitalized. I find my brain having to work hard to find the last word in the name. Partly because title grammar in general is so convoluted, as well.

• Good eye, but I find that part of the rule to be rather odd. It’s like saying you can’t seed your own Blu-ray rip before seeding someone else’s Blu-ray rip first, when it’s actually the spreading of the movie itself that everyone wants. At least in my mind.

  Is there a good rationale for this part of the rule?

• I prefer their remakes, not gonna lie. Improvements to gameplay QoL here and there, good looking graphics, better frame rates(!).

  And I grew up with NES and N64. I know what it was like. The slow frame rate is a big source of frustration for me, personally. But upgraded visuals are a big plus to me also.

I am an anti-AI person, practically, but you make a very fair and objective point. 👍 I up vote you, not because I agree with AI use but because this is a proper point to make in a proper discussion, which is what this place should be about.

  Kudos.
