It’s the shadiest anti-cheat on the market with a very troubled history. It was enough on its own to make me reconsider buying the game.

It sounds like you’re a little bit into it. If at this point you are not curious about the Nomai or why you keep dying and finding answers to those questions, then you should stop playing. The game might not be for you. Because it tells a non-linear story and if you don’t care about the story then there’s nothing there for you.

That being said, my experience with the game was heavily influenced by recent loss in my life and playing it helped me process my grief. Naturally that is a highly personal experience. But there was one point in particular where I read one bit of text and the realization of the implications just made me sit there and cry until I died.

But I was fully invested in the story. If that isn’t important to you the gameplay alone isn’t going to carry it.

Someone finally calculated the cost of legal challenges, I guess. While this certainly saves in developer costs in legal fees, I don’t see why anyone would keep their projects in Unity under the new terms, charging a developer based on a metric disconnected from sales is always going to incur unacceptable risk unless the developer has really deep pockets.

“We apologize for the confusion” is the “I’m sorry you’re angry” of corporate communication.

Even if they are not currently lying and have the magical ability to determine the exact number of installs. They have shown that they will arbitrarily change their pricing structure. There is no way they can be trusted. Anyone who can move their project to a new engine would be wise to do so.

Interesting that bigots are so insecure in their bigotry that they require it to be externally validated. How pitiful.

Because the mod itself is intended as a form of political grandstanding. So that bigots can download it thousands of times and then hold it up and say ‘look how many people are modding the woke out of BG3’ in an attempt to discourage inclusive content in other titles.

Just add

to crontab and run it once a minute, problem solved.

I am cautiously hopeful for Life By You. My favorite thing in the Sims was to set up crazy soap opera dramas and see what happens, but Sims 4 sims are so docile and boring, it feels a lot more like just playing with dolls and decorating the house. I’m not judging if that’s the part you like, but it’s just not for me.

Outer Wilds is top of my list for most profound video game experiences. I have never went from joy to thinking “Oh. Oh…” so fast in one game. Plus, the music and graphics are so well done and support the narrative themes and mood. Just a masterpiece game.
