Then again, maybe the question can be raised about FFVII - Rebirth. But still, I would say that the question is raised anyway because it’s a FF (a series which largely contributed to cement the JRPG genre) and a remake of a game which is indubitably JRPG, not because it’s an RPG developed by a Japanese team.

I don’t get how this is discriminatory - to me it’d be like saying K-pop, K-pop or French fries is.

Uh, I have bought the last 3 generations of Xbox controllers and the battery’s always been swappable. What’s new?

Isn’t Dishonored 3 Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, or is it more of a spin-off the second? Disclaimer: I’ve only played the first and part of the second, haven’t finished it nor played DotO yet.

I think it will released into 3 parts: Remake, Rebirth and the third volume which I don’t think has been titled yet. What makes it even more confusing is that there was an “enhanced” version of FFVII Remake, released on PC and PS5, called Remake Intergrade.

The Sims 4 base game is already free. So if I’m understanding this correctly, EA, of all game publishers, is announcing that, against all odds, a free-to-play game with in-game MTX is an efficient business model that they want to promote? This might not be related at all that the Sims has always been a license that caters to the general, not particularly gamer audience.

You’re probably right! I wonder how well it can run on an iPhone when devices dedicated to gaming barely manage decent framerates on modern games at 800p. And maybe Apple hasn’t actually dropped support for game development, but I don’t believe they have been very active on that front either, did they? Looking at a list of games released on macOS in 2023 isn’t very impressive, and all games released for x86 (so, prior to 2020) won’t work on modern devices.

Do you think these will actually run on the device, or is Apple betting on streaming here? I don’t see how they would capitalize on developers being able to develop for iPhone, while they dropped game support on Mac years ago.

I don’t inherently disagree with what you’re saying, but online DRM would have happened anyway sooner or later, and online isn’t always online.

But most importantly, I’d rather a billion times have Valve rolling in that Steam money than any other publisher on the videogame market: the industry would be just that much worse, with unexisting indie devs and no Proton.

Unfortunately, if the data is biased, the model is biased.

And don’t forget the metaverse!

I don’t know how kombucha might be “good” for type 2 diabetics. The test sample in this study was of 12 people, I don’t think any conclusion can be drawn yet.

Wasn’t the first one released one year or two ago? Couldn’t they push this as a DLC or a large expansion pack? What’s the upside of making another one?

I don’t really understand how that would work. I’m on Instagram because I follow some specific artists, collectives, companies, labels, etc., and secondarily for friends. If those are not on Pixelfed, what is there to follow?

Although Lemmy suffers of quite a content draught on less populated communities, it still works like Reddit since you follow topics, not people.
