  Oh I just read about Disney doing that to the guy who wrote the original Star Wars novelizations, I think. They assumed all of Lucasfilm’s assets but not their liabilities, including royalty agreements.

  It’s insane that this “works” for companies the size of Disney and Lucasfilm.

  I started playing Monster Hunter Rise! I’ve played Monster Hunter: World before for a bit, so I understand something of how it works.

  That didn’t stop me from trying to skip ahead in quests and getting pummeled a bunch of times though. Whoops!

  I’m also finally trying to get a little further in American Truck Simulator. I’ve had it for a few years and have struggled to play consistently.

  Mine still worked through college I think! Mine was kind of small but nearly indestructible. Lasted from 1986 to at least 2004.

  And I think I just left it by the street or something, still working. I can’t even remember!

  This was immensely interesting, thanks for taking the time to put it together!

  SimAnt is a really good one! I never had SimEarth, but I played SimAnt and SimFarm to death

  Kept meaning to come back to this thread and talk about OpenTTD! I’ve been a Transport Tycoon game since I was fourteen or so! I love getting sucked in to a new transportation empire.

  I played Alter Aeon a lot in high school a long time ago! It had a lot of depth 25 years ago and it’s only grown since then.

  I picked it back up a year ago and played for a bit. It’s still really fun! Highly recommended.
