It felt so weird going into the anime completely blind.
Okay, he’s German. Uh, and he’s in the army. And it’s WW2.
…Are we going to address the elephant in the room?
Nope, he’s just the new bro, here we’re all bound by the power of muscles and cool poses.
I searched the article for anything meaningful. There is absolutely nothing.
They relayed two isolated sentences of a guy, notoriously son of a legendary animation artist, notoriously not quite as talented and in a conflictual relationship with him. So not the legendary artist, the one that nobody would know if he wasn’t his son.
The two sentences are “This thing is likely to happen. No idea how it will be perceived.”
Yeaaaah.
BG3? Not sure I am seeing the influence here.
If anything Firaxis’s take on XCOM has made turn based tactics somewhat mainstream again, and Ubisoft has already tried to surf on this trend once with Mario+Rabbids.

I had a pokémon phase around gen 6/7 including ORAS, and partly to complete dexes I got previous DS games around that time too. Got Pearl/Diamond and Black/White and shared one of each with my sister so we can play in parallel and trade.
I had a blast with black, but pearl… Not so much. It felt like a boring crawl. Mostly because of the terrible pokémon distribution. Seriously, there’s a fire-type elite 4 and there are literally not enough fire-types in the game for him to have a complete team, even counting the fire starter! And one game doesn’t have any access to dark type until 6th gym or so, while the other has one in a very early area.
And the pokémon that are there feel like they’re always the same, in good part because they decided to keep a lot of pokémon exclusively for the post game area.
Early millennial, saw that movie a dozen times growing up. Some TV broadcasts, and an overused, quite damaged home-recorded VHS.
Thinking about those I’ve played, I don’t think remakes have ever detracted from the original to me.
The first time I finally completed Metroid 1 was shortly after Zero Mission (which had the cool effect that the locations of some power ups was still fresh in my mind).
I also enjoyed Samus Returns despite it missing the point of Metroid 2, and that didn’t make Metroid 2 worse in retrospect.
Kind of similar with Majora’s Mask 3D, Mario 64 DS…
I’ve never hold up a first play because of a potential remaster, especially not if it was not announced.
I have hold up a few replays when rumours of a remake are floating around though (like I did with Skyward Sword). I stopped a halfway through replay of Xenoblade Chronicles when they announced Definitive Edition. With how long XC games get if you try to do everything… Yeah.
Still lacking a definitive version in English of the original, Tales of Phantasia, as far as I know. The playstation version with skits and stuff was Japanese only.
The only officially localized version was GBA… and its epic tale of the legendary war :
“Kangaroo.”

On the previous generation (which seems to be a lifetime ago now) Microsoft got badly burned on trying something like this, because they did it (and announced it) spectacularly wrong.
They wanted to allow game sharing by tying it to a system where you wouldn’t be able to play your own games if your console wasn’t online, so it could always track who’s supposed to play every game. Lots of people shat on their announcement, because, understandably, fuck needing an internet connection to play offline games.
Sony exploited that saying their console would not need to stay always online and mostly “won” that generation’s console announcement, while Microsoft hastily backpedaled to the usual too, probably costing them quite a bit since release was so close.
So in the end I think both were very reluctant to try the kind of DRM that would allow sharing again.
Elle voulait peut-être prouver qu’elle a les bonnes valeurs pour devenir avocate pour politique véreux. Notice me Sarko sempai!
To keep up with the worst reasons for which people can hunt fossils, on top of selling them in auctions for rich assholes, now you’ll be able to grind them into a powder and sell them as medicinal remedies.
Making people pay to skip boring “gameplay” loops, and then paying them a trifle to get them to play more. While getting hundreds of time that from serving ads.
The good content is hiding somewhere under all that, promise! Keep digging and you’ll find it.
Signer maintenant pour ça, c’est pourri.
Maintenant dans mon coin de fonction publique y a eu des choix qui ont été fait il y a juste quelques années de ça, et on a passé pas mal de temps à intégrer du Microsoft. C’était clairement pas la préférence de tout le monde mais on n’a pas eu le choix. Même si on serait pas contre le principe, on flippe un peu qu’une décision politique nous demande de tout dégager et remplacer.
No, that’s why I said Super Famicom and PAL SNES were coloured. American SNES doesn’t like fun, so its buttons are all purple.
Not Google, but my favorite was “ethnaically anabigaus” appearing randomly on generated pictures.
Completely unrelated, but…
What the hell are those controller buttons?
One looks melted, the other 3 have weird shading like they’re partly hollow. Super Famicom and EU SNES (the ones with colours) are smooth and round.
You must connect with the road, every km or so stop and hug the asphalt.
The paper was right. I read that and I’m dying right now.
Humans are bad at probability, and that’s mostly why they gamble too.
Every wheel draw is supposed to be independent (it’s not totally so because computer “random” is really a pseudo-random algorithm, but close enough). So every time you draw, the odds are 1:4. Previous draws don’t matter.
On an infinitely large number of draws, you’d see a 1/4 success rate. This doesn’t mean you can’t fail a dozen times in a row (the probability of that is (3/4)^12, about 3%… It happens).
