Copyright is not “use it or lose it”, but as it is, it is unworkable for digital media. Computer hardware doesn’t last a century and with no other measures being taken to preserve that content, it’s effectively doomed by the law. It also doesn’t reflect a world where average people make edits of copyrighted content as a means of expression without seeing any problem with that.

Trying to never disrupt the Economy when the Economy is based on materially impossibly extracting ever growing profits out of a finite world is itself a futile self-destructive endeavor.

It must have been even longer for the Kickstarter backers who initially were told Silksong would be a stretch goal DLC

Love the effort this guy is putting into it. I don’t have The Crew to participate but I hope this pays off.

It’s funny when your buddies pull mild pranks but I definitely don’t like how much companies have adopted it. I could do without all the false announcements.

It’s only fun when they do ridiculous stuff for real, like SEGA releasing The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog.

What a funky new font you got there, pretty hard to read the title. It’s like the letters are shuffling around like SIBYL or PLOY or US BIO something.

Anyway, that game doesn’t exist. I would know, I played all the arcade games they had in the area when I was a kid. It was pretty fun and harmless until they took it away. Never seen one. The game didn’t even start yet.

What a fun hoax it was. They will be very amused.

It’s downright bizarre that apparently someone can own a physical copy of a game and not be allowed to dump them. DMCA and customer rights are broken.

Ah, that’s more reasonable than simply being a matter of system bloat. They should test for battery duration while doing that.

To be fair it kinda went away for a while during the beta and then it got added back years later.

Even the private server chats. That’s [hecking] [doo-doo]

I remember when one single block of water source would flood the whole map if not contained by sponge blocks

This makes me a *happy camper*

I’m saying it does take me significantly more than 5 minutes, and that’s not even counting getting around the map or Daily Commissions or regular events that also take time, which one might want to do if they want more characters and weapons without paying.

I’m also saying that to have your characters so optimized that it only takes you 5 minutes now, it means you likely grinded much more than 5 minutes a day for a long time, because fast clear times aren’t trivial to get, and in this game skilfull play doesn’t make up for raw stat numbers as far as clear time goes.

I am saying that solely counting daily grind, my playtime has surpassed hundreds of hours, and this is not hyperbole. I have played for more than a year, so over time even short daily playtime can ammount to that, but lets not downplay how many times you need to run the same XP Leylines, the same Talent Book Domains, the same Artifact Domains, the same Bosses over and over to gather materials to get new characters up to speed with the rest of your team, meaning, usable in gameplay.

God, if I didn’t like the game’s story so much I’d probably have dropped already from how repetitive and tiresome the grind gets. Like many live service games, it’s not even like this is earned naturally by playing however you want, no, you need to go out of your way to grind the same repetitive challenges. Maybe you know games that are even more griindy and tiresome… but I wouldn’t exactly say that this means Genshin is free from grind. Not at all.

Good for you running Domains and Ley Line Blossoms 4 to 8 times a day in 5 minutes. But if you are doing that, then you definitely put a lot of time into farming artifacts already. I wish I could simply run it a couple times per character and be kitted out for good, but they gotta pile up random stats over random stats to get people farming forever.

Also the game literally has no grind

My hundreds of hours farming level up materials and artifacts would beg to disagree.

I’d say Honkai Star Rail is the most commute-friendly one, since it’s based on turn-based battles. Genshin is definitely not the best one for that. Exploring the open world and doing quests take a long, long time. Honkai Impact 3rd has short missions too but it’s action oriented.

Sonic Adventure 2 is great but it hurts me every time someone says how good Sonic Heroes was. Sonic Heroes was the most paper-thin every character has been in the 3D era. They just took a couple stereotypical quotes for each character and called it a day. The scant little they did with Shadow was only the barest setup for Shadow the Hedgehog.

Shadow the Hedgehog was overly edgy but at least they tried to do some character exploration and what-ifs. I got some chuckles from how over the top the Dark paths went but some routes and the True ending seemed to fit his actual character just fine.

Character-wise I’d say Sonic Battle was one of the best entries, but the gameplay had nothing to do with anything Sonic.

Shadow is a cool character. Gotta wonder if they are going to be as daring about this one as they were in the Shadow game, but I see no guns so probably not.

Downright bizarre that corporations can demand such an extent of a lifetime punishment for non-violent crimes. Truly the law only serves the rich…

Figuring out decks can be a lot of work but some cards are pretty much always useful. Professor’s Research can save you from a bad hand and Ultra Balls can get you evolutions if they aren’t showing up. For mixed color decks you might want Energy Search or maybe some variety of Rainbow Energy cards (but you can only have up to 4 of each special energy).
