For all its shit with killing fan projects, tournaments, and frivolous lawsuits, this is actually a legitimate case.

Just like any group of people, there are radicals that don’t represent their purported beliefs. Just look at all the “Christians” that preach and practice hate and violence.

I mean this is just Twitter’s old verification system, but now accounts have a lit of verifiers, so it’s not one centralized entity approving, and there’s accountability. I don’t see this as enshittified.

Minor movie spoilers for I Saw The TV Glow but it basically covers this exact feeling

Isn’t that background from the teaser for ES VI?

Well we can’t say they didn’t try.

Huh, this is 100% free. Looks like it’s a smaller version of Lunacid (which is $14)

No seriously though, there’s a lot of places it looks like a personal art project. But the aesthetic is awesome and the setting looks interesting.

It’s not made of sidewalk anymore either

I’m glad this conversation is happening because I hate Black Mirror for this. Everything that happens is the worst possible outcome. The ideas and situations are great, but actually watching it is a slog. Pessimism porn is the perfect designation.

Clocking in at 7 1/2 hours, why is Princess Peach Showtime $60? It should be $20 with this reasoning.

It’s just bold-faced BS. Variable pricing to match the experience would give us games like Princess Peach Showtime or Thousand Year Door for $20-$40. They’re just keeping the $60 baseline and charging $10-$20 more when they feel they can get away with it.

Yeah I’m just going to stick on Win 10 for a while. Apparently the enterprise version is getting support for longer so maybe I’ll see if I can get on that.

Small town in Minnesota did this with an old rusted up truck. It was attached to a giant cable and they winched it out of the lake after it fell through.

Yup. I want to play Prime 4 and DK Bananza at some point. I don’t need to play them day 1, but I’ll want to play them eventually. And I’ll want to play the inevitable Pikmin 5 and Smash Bros 6.

I think most people are more upset about Nintendo pushing an $80 price tag for first party games. TotK put a bad taste in a lot of peoples’ mouths, but it was both a technical marvel and highly anticipated. People were beyond hyped about the game years before we learned about the increased price.

Mario Kart World was announced out of the blue, and while it looks like a ton of fun, it’s not the same kind of ‘I would be disappointed if I didn’t play it before I died’ as TotK. So a further bump in price for it just feels awful.

Stealing is cheaper than buying things!?

I know it’s expensive though, and I emulated Pokemon Sword to play a co-op randomized Nuzzlock with friends. So no doubt there will be a Sw2 emulation scene. But I’m not sure a $250 laptop will even get you the same performance with emulation.

Not always the case as with the swift price drop for the 3DS. Depends on what sales look like for the Switch 2. Maybe we’ll get an OLED version for $500 or something. But my gaming plate is pretty full, and I may just power through Prime 4 on Switch.

I don’t think any game runs at 1080 fps 🤔

Prime 4 w/ mouse controls at 120fps isn’t something I was banking on before today
