This is something I've never understood about Nintendo, they could always make so much money by bringing in these Indies, making them officially licenced products and taking a cut (no matter how small it would still generate quite a bit) or even go full ham and just integrate them into your team and develop it.
But they always pick the lawsuit with a value that likely amounts to peanuts when compared to their budgets or even the potential gains.
Never quite understood that but I do live in a place where lawsuits are more punishing than prison sentences so maybe Japan has good courtrooms ?
I just started it back up so still too early to judge. They added verbal duals since the last time which is some esoteric wizardry that I still don't get.
But I'm not far enough yet to start interacting with most mechanics. Just joined a sect, built a house while doing the land plot missions.
Beast wave is still bonkers for damage though.
Rogue Trader, Star Citizen and a bit of Matchless KungFu
All fun in different ways
I'm still processing the one were vtubers can't show anything yet vrchat can go almost fully naked
Maybe we should set up a discord (or something like it, I don't know I'm getting old) where we can put away the political stuff and just meme, socialize, whatever normal people do on those servers.
Or do we already have one that I'm not aware of ?
Then again I'm very anti social so probably won't contribute much, would still like to join one though
One of the important things to the FPS of star citizen isn't as much the gunplay but the zero G EVA and ship interiors.
I played Elite for quite a while before I jumped ship (after too many time getting annoyed at engineering) and saw the influx of players when Elite added space legs but it was a land and teleport out of your ship.
Having ship interiors and zero G allows for varied interactions between players, from doing silly things to the military LARPers doing a try hard ship invasion.
Though Star citizen still needs the game part built on top the EVA, interiors and the soft death system are important to the FPS spaceman fantasy.
Though from what I heard of the pirate elements of the game too many people fly ships without any kind of FPS gear, guess there isn't a cure for stupid.
"A racism a day keeps the doctor away"
Doctor's orders: " If you see black, go on the attack"
"A black you shall beat, for your health to treat, and remember to repeat, for cancer's defeat"
It just seems incredibly funny to me that if this was true we would have highly racist saying to keep the population healthy
Forgot about activities and trying to edit on phone is pain so new comment.
Beyond the ones you mention there is racing, salvage, there is technically towing.
Beyond that there are some fancier of the ones you mentioned but content is still the area than needs improving
I have good performance but I have a PC purposely built for it. It keeps getting better but still far from release performance. Servers are still the main issue to performance though they had a test recently which went well so hopefully in the next major patch server stuff if get much needed polish.
Though if you left from when orison got added, performance is much improved (though still mostly CPU bound), and 30ks are rarer (though I play on EU servers and I'm generally lucky)
For gameplay you have more stuff to do but not more gameplay, sure I can go do bunkers or the centers but it's not new gameplay, yet.
Development has picked up now that teams are moving from Squadron and we have got quite a few revamps to old systems (map, mobi, EVA, flight modes, etc) but they were added recently and need a bit of cooking.
Overall I'd say if they deliver this year on the servers the project would be at somewhere around late Alpha and so they can move onto content to play rather than base tech. The 800 people test did work out well with a few hiccups (displacement of bullets while crossing servers in space).
Rogue Trader for the millionth time.
Getting a character ready for the Elder Ring DLC
And some Star Citizen every time I get a desire for some space stuff.
Though I have other stuff installed if I want to change genres those are the current thing.
Though I'm shifting a lot more time to writing background lore for a universe to set stories in.
It has moving parts and people are idiots. It would either be broken or cause some woman to chip a nail and so would the owner would be sued.
No fun allowed in public anymore
I've always wanted to write stories in a universe I've been working on. The recent crap has definitely re-sparked my interest in doing it.
Been doing my world building and set up the overall story and hopefully will at some point have some chapters to share if I find a place to, hopefully that isn't a leftist shit hole since they infect all kinds of art.
I have looked into blender when I was drawing stuff in VR but work put a quick stop to that so might go back to add some visual aids to the story but current focus is on the story.
Hopefully quality stuff starts popping up again, this time clear of the leftist taint of being unable to separate reality from fiction
What's the Japanese onomatopoeia for barfing again ? Preferably loud and long barfing if possible.
I've wanted to write some stories for quite a while, and every time I see this bullshit I want to go back and remove any black character and any other thing leftists might latch onto.
These people are a cancer and need to be excluded from any position of power, no matter how little power that position may have
It's also probably when some of them realise that they have been sold utter bullshit.
The people that go through with it probably are the idiots who believe the crap, only to get to the finish line and now they aren't better but so, SO much worse than they were before.
So no suprise it goes up.
Honestly the ending was the least of the narrative problems I had with the game. The constant "yes but the plot needs to move this way so I'm just gonna ignore your repeated NOs" was way more annoying
That and the amount of black and white choices, missing dialogue choices and other blatant dual morality was annoying. No idea if it was cause of the voice acting limiting choices but the game had very little nuance at times
I find it hilarious how much fear these people have been indoctrinated into having for people that can barely hurt them while at the same time feeling incredibly safe around very dangerous threats.
And I'm not just talking about literal bears here but all manner of different threats.
But the men that have protected them from the dangers, those are what they are afraid of.
Legend of dragoons for me, I replay that every few years. Story is fairly typical of the time, voice acting is.....also typical of the time.
But the addition system just goes so well with the jrpg formula. Magic being more limited where it's either by way of items or by turning into a dragoon also gives a nice sense of how special the transformation are.
Decent spread of characters for the team and has a fan made release that modernises it a bit so things look a bit better (I've downloaded it but haven't tried that version yet)
Hasn't he been in power for only 3-4 months ? Wouldn't any policy he actually implemented be at most only starting to have a minor effect ?
I haven't really been following what Miles is doing but this just seems like an excuse to go bitch at someone they didn't want elected.... Or just an attention whore trying to get attention
Should be mentioned that they reinstated it pretty quickly as far as I'm aware so the possibility of an automated system or rogue intern isn't out of the question
I remember when Ukraine bombed a train station full of evacuating civies just to blame Russia for it until the missile was shown and then they quickly made an excuse and it was never heard about again.
This attack was at least against their enemy's civilians.
Big if with that "can be reasoned with"....
For me it would be certain interviews, most news are too distant for the normies to believe you on most things, it's just one person's word against another.
But interviews you can point out biased actions, a recent example was that an interviewer was asking the "far right party leader" questions but always started to talk over the interviewee when he gave perfectly reasonable answers.
Stuff like this and loaded questions, difference in handling depending on what the news are talking about as well.
Basically actions of the news rather than misinformation is where I'd try my luck
PS: COVID discussions would also be a quite good one to point this out
I'm wondering from a camouflage angle. From what I've seen not a single alphabet soup asexual actually follows through so I'm wondering how well it would serve as a way to have normal rights while staying the fuck away from the rest of the alphabet.
Also I'm sure there are more retarded labels in the damn soup than asexual. Asexual is probably the most useless though as at least from what I've seen.
How does asexual work in the alphabet soup? Might serve as a good shield against standard harassment claims and such
When my disdain of makeup makes a 60 year old look better than the average 20-30 that has a face like a clown
