WHAT DO WE WANT?

…

WHEN DO WE WANT IT?

shrugs

I guess Lion Lady made quite an impression on the person who tagged it.

Hoopa : “Just gonna drop a bunch of those legendary idiots for shits and giggles. Catch, trainer!”

Single joycon is barely usable, but the Wiimote was terrible for sideways holding.

Its shape was clearly never intended for it, and the d-pad was absolutely awful, one of the worst I’ve used.

The d-pad worked as buttons (which was how most games used it, in vertical mode), but for movement it was very stiff and almost impossible to get diagonals. For a console that featured virtual console heavily and needed a lot of classic controls, that was very bad design.

Try to cheat Death and piss off the gods for a free one with unlimited warranty.

You must deal with the delivery yourself though.

Until they give a “better” reason, I am going to assume the one they hinted at is true, and Microsoft just decided that it was worthless because it wasn’t “Mikami’s studio” anymore. Honestly, I already suspected it.

In which case, fuck them. These games were not made by one person, a studio is bigger than its director. And the rest of them didn’t get even one chance to prove themselves.

Truly shows how little they value the people who make their games.

What? No, it’s a loftwing. Probably related to Zelda’s if the coloration is any clue.

Well, I don’t think they’re putting up a very good show right now.

By searching that, I’ve just learned about the concept of architectural follies…

That case is batshit crazy, but there are worse ways to spend a fortune I guess.

Sure, but since the advent of digital media I wouldn’t assume someone went full Stalinian propaganda to fabricate that picture. Though I think I would respect that effort, in a way.

I may have thought it was a fake picture even 20 years ago. That kind of stuff could have come from Something Awful’s Photoshop Phriday.

For a long time I thought I didn’t like Tetris very much. Tetris 99, Tetris Effect and Puyo Puyo Tetris made me reconsider that. Turns out I just needed a push, and now I occasionally spend hours on the stuff, gladly.

I think excluding rhythm games, Tetris must be one of the only game that gets me into “the zone”.

The one with 2,061 preinstalled games on it, right? I love Super Mario Bros 43, that’s when the series really took off IMO.

The only reason gamebryo modding is “easy” is because the community has been working on tools for it for decades.

It uses weird proprietary formats nobody else is using and full of stupid quirks. Back when Morrowind released, officially all Bethesda provided along the construction set was their plugin for a thousand-dollar licenced product to make nif models. Nowadays they don’t even do that anymore because they know people have been making their own free tools for Blender etc.

As for the modding structure itself, other games support a plugin hierarchy like they do. Rimworld in particular, and it runs on Unity.

Defences have been breached.

One of the 6 characters in Xenoblade 3’s main cast is black. He’s quite interesting too, this game has pretty good character writing IMO. They’re not the usual stereotypical JRPG character types.

Already started. Not sure what happened, but my mods don’t load, even though I’m technically still on stable, 1.4 branch.

I think a mod has already been updated for 1.5 and broke something for 1.4.

I’m glad the game’s alive though, I don’t mind doing a bit of vanilla until modders do their magic.

“What are ya buyin’?”

I am not disagreeing that this is ridiculous, I was just saying that this stupidity is not what should convince people not to take some random paper for an absolute truth, just because it was published.

Even if you eliminate fraud, bullshit and even honest mistakes, that’s just not how science works.

It got published, people noticed it, people saw it was bullshit, it got retracted. Publishing is not the end of the line.

It’s an extreme example, but it’s still an example of the system working in the end. Reasonable people are supposed to question what they read, not blindly trust it, that’s how you catch “important shit”.

The problem is not that some bad papers get published. The problem would be them staying unchallenged. And it’s also a problem that laymen consider one random study is an undeniable proof of their argument (potentially ignoring the thousands of studies contradicting it).
