That’s just antisemitism /s

Funny you mention THAT game.

Not that I have anyyy insider knowledge, but great care was taken to avoid very specific things. Also who knows, had coromon exploded in popularity, maybe Nintendo would have bothered.

Saw videos/articles online that this was the “end of gamedev” or whatever.

While patents for games are shit, theyve been around a long time and are hard to enforce. Palworld made it incredibly easy for one of the most ruthless companies to go after them. I expected they waited to see the final game before taking action, and until palworld made a ridiculous amount of money.

I’ve worked on Pokemon clones that are commercially available, and while they didn’t sell as much as palworld, they took a bit more care designing around stuff

Definitely not by design, as the rich do whatever they want and push austerity on the rest.

Jude Law Dumbledore makes me a bit gay too

I was just saying I find Nintendo are slowrolling devs by waiting till the last minute to sue them. I guess it’s to make sure it’s a slam dunk

That’s why these things are always “so close” to being done. You hear the milestone is near, and then it disappears. I have a theory Nintendo waits for as long as they can so people invest a lot, then they send the papers. In a way it discourages people from even starting imo.

Edit: why is this being downvoted. Nintendo slowrolling developers is just like, my opinion man. It’s not controversial

Doesn’t mean it’s worth 30k. There are whiskies just as old and better that aren’t sold at that price.

This item is not sold 30k because its old, or even rare. It’s sold at that price because there’s always a rich sucker who wants something expensive.

Companies spend far more on anti piracy for single-player games than they would make if all those stolen copies were legit sales. It’s a power thing

Exercise in general will do this.

Trump has openly said he would end the war in Ukraine swiftly by giving Ukraine to Putin, his good friend. Ignorance is bliss i guess, at least Kamala isn’t spewing Russian propaganda

The proof is indeed in the pudding, Trump spent 4 years disbanding state, federal and international protections, as well as getting cozy with North Korea, China and Russia. Topping it all off with an attempt to overthrow the government, stalling the succeeding administration

Then he openly admits he would add Ukraine to the list of US supported genocides. You aren’t making the argument you think you’re making.

And they would be wiping palestine AND ukraine under a Republican, whats your point. It’s shitty to have to pick a lesser evil and americans should protest having to do that, but let’s not pretend they are the same evil.

Trump openly admits he would be doing far far worse

Yes, you need to abandon both and elect a new party of overthrow the state. That’s been the solution for the last 30 years, but y’all aren’t going to do that, so forgive me for discussing actual plausible scenarios.

Do you know what “if anything” means in this context? It means we are unlikely to see a difference between parties, if we do (which we wont) it would be more likely to be on the democrat side.

Youre delusional to think a Trump admin wouldn’t be far worse for Gaza and Ukraine

Trying to use Gaza on either candidate is stupid. Genocide is a US thing, it has nothing to do with political parties.

If anything we have more chances of seeing change once Kamala is in office than Trump.

Russian ammo depot, go fuck yourself.

I can’t believe they were only seeking 50,000$ too.

it isn’t as insane as it is presented here

Arbitration aside, I think you’re forgetting these are terms from the streaming service.

If tomorrow I attack you, break your spine and you lose mobility for life, then I come back saying in 2011 you purchased an indie game I made and waived your right to sue me in the terms of service, that wouldn’t be insane? Suuure.

I’ve played games 40 hours a week minimum for the last couple decades, I love games. People have already offered the right elden ring advice, so this is more general advice.

That 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th hour of “playing” the same way often has diminishing returns. Taking a break can do wonders for your progress.
