The right thing for meta to do is to implode and cause a complete crash on the stock exchange as it is erased from history.

Oh hey, it’s “won’t somebody please think of the children?” taken to the streets for internet clout! Absolutely nothing wrong can happen there! /s

I don’t think my computer can even run the game, the high requirements are the biggest headscratcher for me. One of the appeals of The Sims, at least 1 and 2 (maybe 3?), was that they could run on comparatively lower powered computers of the time, which greatly helped with sales

emergency-patch an oversight that allowed children to be killed by driving into them when in a car.

So, you can kill people with your car, but not kids?

I filled the survey as well. It’s mostly focused on “games preservation”. I’m not up to pay subscription for anything they’re willing to offer and even made sure to tell them that I’m willing to pay a premium for whatever useful content (games) end up exclusive to subscribers

Not long ago, a Russian politician was asking women to dress “less modestly” in order to have more kids, so they know they can’t keep it going that long

Someone high up in WB asked for it, clearly someone who knows better than all those developers and consumers

/s

Gee, I wonder why Russians aren’t making babies. Is it the economy and cost of childcare, like in several other countries?

Nah, it’s the wimminz, they should wear more slutty outfits

This has to be the weirdest porn/hentai scenario around

Those old computer dungeon crawler games, like Wizardry or Might and Magic 1-2. Jesus, they’re absolute exercises in patience. You don’t even have to play anything very recent to see how poorly they aged, even SNES JRPGs of 1992-4 were much better.

It won’t stop the porn, but it will probably reduce the hate and misinfo

Huh, even checking with 12ft.io and archive.org don’t show more than the first paragraph. Seems to be an “ad” for the printed magazine?

If Brutus ain’t around, we can count on Luigi

I only beat it at ~10yo because I knew how to read walkthroughs, which is what finally led me to enter Saffron. At no point I thought that one of the purchasable drinks from a vending machine could be used to “bribe” the guard on the entrance, I always thought it was some special item somewhere (which became the case in the FR/LG remakes) or some other event.

I remember that the dev of Legend of Grimrock added an option for movement with the mouse because a disabled gamer wanted to play. Maybe that second friend should check that and the 2nd game out.

Using a mouse with your non dominant hand is annoying…

Yeah, for PC they’ll probably have to grit their teeth and power through the discomfort. An alternative is getting a hand in some old emulated games. Anything from the NES era can be mapped to 4 movements + 4 buttons (start, select, A, B), which on a keyboard could be WASD + Q, E, R and F. Dunno how to set something similar on a Deck.

FOMO, fear of missing out

Oh, of course the game is gacha waifu central, what the fuck else did I expect?

This is a pretty damning “they used assets of when they were under contract”, so, for once, squeenix isn’t entirely in the wrong.

On the other hand, why the fuck did they even cancel the production? The studio went ahead and released it, with people apparently enjoying the game, so that’s on you being stupid, squeenix.

Worst case scenario, 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

Steal content, use AI to pretend the model has down syndrome, sell paid fanvue videos (because onlyfans is stricter with AI).

Chat, I don’t even
