I Am Setsuna has a soundtrack that is something else in a way that almost no other games achieve.

Choosing to rely on a single instrument almost entirely, is bold. It forces an exploration of the range and variety that can be produced with almost nothing but piano, to an extent you otherwise wouldn't experience.

Oh yes. It is legitimate hardcore production engineering.

If you look into it, there's a long history of Lego going the extra mile in every way. And to protect their methods, they do stuff like burying retired manufacturing dies in the foundations of their new facilities to ensure they don't fall into the hands of competitors for reverse engineering.

Yeah, but it didn't affect gamers. People don't care until something either does affect them, or in a VERY in your face kind of way, could.

Crowdstrike, unfortunately, is a funny "lol the corporates fucked their own shit up" case and the average gamer simply won't connect the dots.

Pretty sure they aren't recycled into new Lego pieces. IIRC Lego is produced using entirely or nearly entirely virgin material, as recycled plastic isn't as high quality, and that's something Lego is super anal about.

But for the same reason, Lego pieces last for ages. All that is required to continue using any intact pieces, is to wash them.

I think there was some kind of donation program that provides Lego to orphanages, daycares and hospitals. Not as sets, but more like a kilo of random pieces, which of course still means an imaginative kid can build all kinds of things.

Hot damn! I love it.

oh yes

FANG!

To me it was worth playing without it, so maybe don't ask me.

...

How the fuck is looking closer at whatever part of the universe you find most appealing "missing the point"?

I find your interpretation even more offensive than the lack of one.

But in what way is it supposed to be funny?

This just seems to comment on religion, but it doesn't do so in a way that makes any sense.

It seems to poke fun at god... But it does it with literally zero teeth.

There are much more valid paradoxes to point out in the imaginary idea of a god, an "omnipotent all-powerful force for good" cannot exist in a world where evil exists, or that force is either not good, not omnipotent, or not all-powerful.

What's the joke?

There were several in-game cutscene into animated cutscene transitions that were utter insanity, as well.

God this game is such a gem.

I personally think the "how good is it" part of "advertising" should literally just be a percentage value of "how many existing customers say it was worth it".

But even that would get gamed the way 5/5 amazon reviews can be bought today already.

So maybe it should really just be "it's a insert thing made out of insert material produced in insert country by insert labour conditions and it costs insert price".

It's going to require a crowdstrike type fuckup, exploit, or privacy scandal on a widely used AC like EAC before public opinion changes on this.

So many games are making the trade-off and it only makes sense because players don't understand what they are giving in to.

The firmware update couldn't fix damage that had already been done.

The bugged firmware was actually killing the drives by wearing them out prematurely.

The fixed firmware only stopped damaging the NAND storage, but there is no way for it to undo damage that had already occurred.

An ssd functioning normally can deal with years and years of daily hibernating.

Wasn't that the drive that got insane write amplification due to a firmware bug?

Edit: yup, definitely wasn't cuz you were actually writing to it an unusual amount. Those drives would wear themselves out during normal use for seemingly no reason. I've been hibernating to a WD Black for years, and it's fine.

Human Senshi hot damn.

Ah. Tax evasion.

Japan is really harsh on that, to the point you seem to keep seeing people who suddenly have a spike in income fuck it up and get sentenced on technicalities.

Yes! They lay eggs!
