Funny how this is posted to World, but it’s an exclusively American phenomenon. I’m in the UK and haven’t had to use my physical signature to pay for anything for about fifteen years, let alone something as trivial as a restaurant bill.

I think the intended use case is summarising a series of messages, not just one
Battle royale where 10k players synchronise their Nintendo Alarmo alarm clocks, and whoever gets out of bed last is eliminated
This was lovely! Are there any other communities that share interesting posts from small blogs like this?
Whichever one it is, they’re gonna get eaten alive behind this godawful o-line.
Fuck you, Nintendo. You used to be cool.
Nintendo have always been like this, even as far back as the NES days. They were super protective over who was allowed to make and sell cartridges, and repeatedly filed lawsuits against companies making unlicensed carts.
They’ve always been ultra-protective over their IP and hardware, and will happily sue fan projects and emulation into oblivion any chance they get.
Those are exactly the fees they’re removing in the uk:
On Tuesday, eBay said its move, which has taken effect immediately, meant private sellers would no longer pay so-called final value fees or regulatory operating fees when they sold on the site.
Nothing to do with Half Life besides someone there being a fan:
As many of you correctly assessed, we’re actually a real company in the Boston area. We’re working hard to assure and secure vaccine and other biological manufacturing production. As much as we would be honored to be part of any Valve game - we do not work in this sector at all. We are not secretly working on Half Life 3, Project White Sands (whatever that is/may be) or any other Valve title - we’re just nerds working to secure the global bioeconomy.
I have a lot of fond nostalgia for A Final Unity, but the two TOS point & click games are way better designed. Plus they’re far easier to get hold of, since they’re sold on GOG while Final Unity isn’t available digitally anywhere.
That said, Final Unity is still good and if you prefer TNG then find a way to play that!
Those Old Scientists
Love TheC64 from the same company, so this will be a day one purchase for me
Such a shame NOLF is so deeply mired in rights disputes that we’ll probably never even get a digital rerelease, let alone a sequel.
It’s called a branching narrative. Most common related Steam tag for finding similar games would probably be ‘choices matter’.
Yes, but they were already on Steam - this release is new
TLDR: the ‘novel technique’ is PWAs
You can manually restart in OW - it’s an ability you can learn from one of the characters you meet.
In my experience, if people are going to bounce off the game it’ll come down to one (or more) of three reasons:
It’s one of my favourite games of all time, and it has good reasons for all of the above, but it’s definitely not for everyone!
And for anyone wondering, my counterpoints to the above would be:
Business cards are still very much used in Japan, which I’m assuming is the exact target market here.
The DC had upscaled art so the old game looked good enough on 1080p screens, plus a few new bits like character portraits.
This is a complete repainting & reanimating of the assets to 4K quality. Very different! Just compare screenshots and you’ll see.
Neat start - what’s your plan for gameplay?
