Gets rated as the happiest country for yet another consecutive year.

Why! What am I missing!? Who here is happy?!!

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 12 points 11 months ago

Maybe we're doing "fake it before you make it" for the ratings

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 points 11 months ago

Or we're just generally content with life, which makes for a good average rating

We're happier than other countries on average. Idk how people don't get how that ranking works

One of my favorite comments I've seen was last time one of these surveys were posted and a Finn responded "It's not that we're happier than everyone else, it's just that the world is going to hell and we were already used to it".

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 28 points 11 months ago

Living next to Russia does have that effect.

It's an inspiring tale for kids to help scare them into always bring happy!

[-] systemglitch@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I WILL ALWAYS BE NO SAD, BECAUSE HELL WAITS FOR SAD BOYS AND GIRLS. VIKING ONLY HAPPY MAKE YOU NEVER SAD MORE

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 46 points 11 months ago

Just wanted to point out that the maker of Baba is You is one of the developers of Noita.

[-] maynarkh@feddit.nl 38 points 11 months ago

There are not many people in Finland apparently

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 22 points 11 months ago

That man's name? Linus Ultrakillsquadunger.

[-] Evil_incarnate@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

*Ultrakillsquadonen

A -nen ending on a surname is very common in Finland. (Like expresident Tarja Halonen or F1 driver Kimi Raikkonen)

[-] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago

You forgot Baron Harkonnen

Haha holy shit, this makes so much sense

[-] trslim@pawb.social 27 points 11 months ago

Fear and Hunger man... that game is like a playable version of Berserk as a random person, rather than Guts.

[-] Discoslugs@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

Noita is amazing.

And also very hard.

I cant get past 3 level

[-] melooone@feddit.de 7 points 11 months ago

I'm also slowly getting into it. Just got a run yesterday where I got a super good wand in the hisi base. I was shooting these blue bubbles at high speed with homing. It had so much knockback that I could use only that to fly. It was the first time where I got to level 5,6 and even 7 and I was still breezing through. But I still died. I used a wand with lots of slots as storage for spells and it killed me immediately. Can't describe how terrible I felt after that...

[-] 2ncs@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Can't describe how terrible I felt after that...

Welcome to noita lol

[-] Discoslugs@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Yeah once I randomly got a wand with lightening bolt.

Holy shit that spell is awesome, and also very dangerous.

Took me to the end of level 3 before, i killed myself with it. Lmao.

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Just here to plug DunkOrSlam and FuryForged on YT and Twitch for the noobies.

Chainsaw is your friend

[-] queue@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 11 months ago

I do recall a joke about something similar.

"LSD and Unix both came out of UC Berkeley, I do not believe that this is a coincidence."

[-] MooseBoys@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

My friend’s theory was that a lot of it is because of how long and dark the winters are in northern europe.

[-] Natanael@slrpnk.net 9 points 11 months ago

That same lots of free time for many and early projects by universities to connect to the internet, and there's a whole lot of us Nordic nerds around

Cruelty Squad is bangin'

Baba is You looks like a super fun idea (I haven't yet played it tho). Same with Ultrakill; looks pretty dope.

[-] MossyFeathers@pawb.social 8 points 11 months ago

Haven't played Baba is You, but ULTRAKILL is 10/10. I love it, I just can't play it. There's a certain boss fight I've gotten stuck on and can't get past because the game's pacing and music sends my heart rate through the roof and my ability to control my fine motor functions and ability to be patient and wait for attack patterns just kinda regresses to that of a 5yr old (music can have a very strong affect on me, Ultrakill's music is extremely fast).

Based and Black-suppositoried

[-] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

Ahh yes Noita, the setting-myself-on-fire simulator.

[-] WanakaTree@lemm.ee 16 points 11 months ago

I love how all this dark shit comes out of the happiest country in the world

[-] Herbie@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Maybe this is how they balance their lives? "I'm too happy, I need to create evil in some way"

[-] zerotime@feddit.de 14 points 11 months ago

Nokia was from Finland. That was the high quality shit.

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Given that selection, they seem more than okay

[-] nottheengineer@feddit.de 11 points 11 months ago

Hakita is either very ok or not ok at all.

I mean look at his youtube channel: https://m.youtube.com/@Hakita/videos

[-] Hotmailer@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

No, they're finished

[-] XbSuper@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

I know 1 of these.

[-] Destraight@lemm.ee 10 points 11 months ago

Noita is not shit. It's an awesome game, you guys are just jealous because I beat the tutorial boss before you

Kinda blowing past the Remedy Games catalog but glad somebody else has finally noticed

[-] Scrof@sopuli.xyz 7 points 11 months ago

Legends all of them

[-] Tb0n3@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

They're Finnished.

[-] Transcendant@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Don't forget the Adamantium of phones, Nokia!

[-] FrankTheHealer@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Not to mention Hill Climb Racing on mobile devices. One of the least shit mobile games out there

[-] Epicurus0319@sopuli.xyz 6 points 11 months ago

They also created (and later ruined) Angry Birds

[-] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

Cruelty squad is a masterpiece. Anyone who thinks otherwise lacks corporate insight.
