Now, my rant on this new editor will now be put on hold until the next post, at which point I shall mock and ridicule WordPress once more (because this is seriously bad). Or as people with intelligence call it: steps back. That’s four steps instead of the old one step. Look, I get that there may have been improvements on the backend or new tools that someone wanted to introduce, but right now, in order to do something that used to be a single click of the mouse, I have to click a “block editor” (or whatever it’s called) open, then do a seach, an actual text-based search, for the same thing, find it in the search results, and then click it. I guess it shouldn’t be too surprising to me that several of these new “blocks” in the block editor are dedicated to money.Īnyway, sorry to interrupt what would have started off as simply a post on Subnautica, but upon loading my site today, I discovered that I no longer had a choice between the functional “classic” editor and this new garbage the company is determined to shove down everyone’s throats because why would any of their customers know what they wanted or needed to do? They’re just semi-ambulatory money sources, right? It’s not like they use the tools or anything? Right? Which seems like a case of deliberately hobbling the product people are already paying you for in order to try and “coerce” them into giving up more money. That’d be alike any Amazon product adding itself to your cart because you looked at it. EDIT: And just clicking the button to see what that premium thing was added it to my cart and put me one click away from accidentally billing myself. However, you can’t use this plugin unless you pay WordPress for the exclusive ability to use plugins. Oh, and as a cherry on top, when I accidentally contacted customer support to complain about being unable to go back to the old version as a default, they shoved some “trademarked” level canned responses at me and then closed the channel.Īnd to top it all off, you can set the old editor as a default with a plugin that has-already-over 5 million downloads. It’s slower to load, lacks basic functionality, and is all around terrible. Block editor follows the “recent” trend of “take functional tools for a user and destroy them in favor of the one user who thinks they’re too complicated or not pretty enough.” Then they hand you something colored in pretty colors and designed for someone who wants to take pictures for instagram rather than use it. No intelligent company should have forced this on their users. With substantially improved mod support for virtual reality recently released for Subnautica: Below Zero, now is the best time to dive into the series, here are some tips for playing Subnautica in VR.So, before I get started on today’s post, I have something to say regarding WordPress, the company that I pay to provide hosting and my site’s toolset for writing. There’s nothing more isolating than floating below the waves in VR in Subnautica with nothing around or below you but silted seawater, glancing huge shadowy shapes silently gliding all around. Despite the developers being a little all over the place with its implementation, once you get it up and running it can be a blast swimming around. Of course, it didn’t take long for VR support to be added. The developers Unknown Worlds broke ground somewhat with their take on the genre by giving you an entire alien ocean to explore with the creature variety and detail in some of the submerged areas, particularly in Below Zero, being genuinely impressive. Updated February 17th, 2022 by Matthew Mckeown: The Subnautica series is more than just a trial by fire for those with Thalassophobia, it’s also a challenging open-world underwater survival game. So if you feel like taking your deep-sea diving to the next level, then here are some tips to keep in mind when using VR. Although the VR version is a little rough around the edges, it's still a great addition to the game. The extra immersion added with a VR headset is incredible and downright terrifying at times, especially if you're exploring one of the Subnautica's scary and dangerous biomes. Taking the plunge beneath these alien tides in VR though is a completely different ball game. RELATED: Subnautica: Everything You Need To Know About The Gargantuan Leviathan Mod
