Huh, I always thought it was Wario + Luigi

All that there is came from the One Great. Then came fractures, and births, and souls. But the Greater Will made a mistake.

Ah yes, let’s just let our old and disabled die, they deserve it for being the way they are! This train of thought has always lead to morally impeccable results!
Please re-think what you’re saying, because it’s disgusting on so many levels that I can’t even begin to describe all the ways it’s horribly wrong.

And let’s not forget that Meta used their apps to track you in mobile browsers. Even having their apps installed for rare use is a terrible idea.
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 1 week ago:
Yes, that’s the restraint the writers are showing. That’s my point: the issue isn’t the multiverse aspect itself, it’s the replacability brought on by unrestrained multiverse implementations.
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 1 week ago:
His future self opens a window and says “Hey, get some paper and a pen, I’ve got some winning lottery numbers for you!” and his past self goes “Oh boy!” and then immediately CLICK (closes the portal) before ever being shown the numbers.
Here’s your issue - it’s not the future self opening the window, it’s his past self. The future self can only speak through the window, but he can’t open it. So since the “current” self closes the window, the future self won’t be able to speak through it.
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 2 weeks ago:
I get what you mean, but I have to disagree a bit. The slice of the multiverse we’re looking at is special because we’re looking at it. It only makes it irrelevant if the slices are treated as fully replaceable.
Take for example Invincible. The comics & series focus on a young superhero who could have become incredibly evil, but didn’t. The multiverse is used to highlight this: it shows alternative versions of him that did become evil, and it even says that most alternative versions did so. This makes the version of him we focus on that much more special, and allows for interesting character progression through being confronted with his fears.
But it only works because of the restraint of the writers, never showing us another good version of Invincible, only focusing on evil alternatives.

Because those culinary definitions are used for other laws, e.g. laws about what food schools can give to children.
- Comment on Scifi question about time travel: 2 weeks ago:
His future self showed his past self the lottery numbers through the open window, but he closes the window, so his future self can’t show them to his past self.

It’s simple market analysis.
Elden Ring has women with bare feet and is very successful.
Expedition 33 has woman with bare feet and is very successful.

It pissed me off when I went through the intro cutscene, and after jumping into the helicopter blades, it started the whole cutscene again.

What? No. If DLSS requires less memory, you can use more memory for other things.

Less VRAM usage means you can use higher-quality models and textures.

But that’s what’s happening, games like AC2 are being taken from people.
How the hell were people supposed to know that the game would be taken from them when they bought it? You are aware that clear communication on that issue is literally one of the objectives of Stop Killing Games?
Have you done any thinking & reflection on the campaign?

First, how the hell did you get that from what I wrote?
Second, do you really think art is this replaceable? “Oh, we don’t need old movies and music, we have better ones now, so let’s just take away the copies people have already bought”? What a sad way to look at art.

Ask someone what “Caniformia” is and most would probably think you’re talking about some region on the US West Coast.
You’re obviously talking about noobs who aren’t watching TierZoo 😎
