Wake up babe, new prime number just dropped.

When I ran out of storage space.

I used to work with a guy who had thrown away upwards of $10,000 at this game. The last time it came up, he told me he had spent over $8,000, and that was several years ago and he didn’t seem to be showing any signs of slowing down. When I asked him what he got for that money, he showed me the one ship he has. He had one ship. The rest were still in development and wouldn’t even be released for years.

He spent more than some cars cost, for a handful of digital space ships, 90% of which aren’t even finished. I have no idea how to reason with people who do this sort of thing.

Now that I’m thinking about it, I’m kinda surprised that there hasn’t already been a Skyrim mod that does exactly this.

I’d honestly love to see them try a different take on Diablo. It won’t happen since Blizzard is all about live service games these days, but I’d love to see a single-player, traditional RPG version of Diablo. Imagine if Larian got the rights to make a Diablo game.

From what I’ve seen, the SH2 remake looks really good. Honestly, it’s a fine starting point if you want to get into the series as SH1 is pretty inconsequential to the rest of the games, so you can definitely just skip it and not really miss out on much.

I really hope that Bloober gets the greenlight to continue remaking the rest of the series. I’d love to see a modernized SH3.

I don’t think Twitter lets you view posts without being logged in anymore. Or at least, it’ll show you old posts, only.

His subreddit is in full cope mode and losing its collective shit right now. People acting like Hasan set him up or something. Like… no, Hasan tried to save Asmon’s racist ass and give him a way out of the controversy, and instead of taking the help he decided to double-down on his bullshit.

You sure do seen to love a company that hates you.

If you saw any of what I wrote as a defense of Nintendo, then you’re not reading.

Right, but Yuzu did, tho. That’s how Nintendo shut them down. Yuzu overstepped and handed Nintendo their own noose. They probably would’ve been just fine if they hadn’t given out builds with those tools built-in.

I’m not defending Nintendo, dude. I’m explaining how they’re able to shut down emulators. It’s possible to make legal emulators, and Nintendo won’t touch them.

That, and when Nintendo’s code is used in some way to develop the project. Japan has very strict laws on reverse engineering any software, which Nintendo is always set to capitalize on.

PJ64 emulates a long gone platform they don’t care about anymore.

No. PJ64 was around when Nintendo was still actively making money on N64 titles.

PJ64 never got shut down because they made sure to always keep their project legal. Nintendo could never do shit to them, and it’s been over 20 years now.

Because the distinction is important. Why do you think Yuzu was shut down but PJ64 still exists?

Yuzu supported unreleased games. To do that required using Nintendo’s code, and getting that code through unauthorized channels. Nintendo’s code may not have been distributed through Yuzu, but it was used in a way that was not permitted in order to engineer a way to circumvent the copy protection of those games. That was how Nintendo was able to go after them.

Nintendo’s been openly emulating their own games since about that time. IIRC, the SNES Virtual Console on the Wii had code from SNES9X in it.

The distinction (which seems nobody cares about) is that Nintendo’s going after copyright infringers. If your emulator doesn’t use any of Nintendo’s code, they ain’t doing shit about it; they’re just gonna steal it, if anything.

They’ve just recently nuked on the Switch emulator.

Because it was being used for piracy. As in, had support in the emulator’s code for unreleased games. Nintendo rarely goes after emulator devs that don’t use their code.

Nintendo has never been against emulation. They’ve only been against people playing without paying.

Yeah, it’s a shame that she doesn’t seem to be able to put herself front-and-center with this. I hope she’s able to get herself and her family out.

Isn’t this only because it’s soon to be legally required in California? I don’t think they’re doing this out of the goodness of their hearts.
