For better or for worse, the Plague Tale games are my favorite games of all time. I'm certainly not claiming that they're the best, they're just my favorite. Love the fairly short length, love the attention to detail with the setting, love the characters, the storytelling, just everything about it.

Asobo Studio's work is incredible for being pretty much indie developers. Not only did they do these two games, but they did freaking Flight Sim 2020 for Microsoft!

Can't wait for Plague Tale 3.

The OP is the mod of this sub and he posts about almost every game coming to PS5. It's not an ad for Baldurs Gate lol. Honestly Baldurs Gate does not need an ad. People have been hyped about it for years.

Are you a developer of both Lemmy and Jerboa? I just realized I think I've seen your name in both places. You are a freaking hard worker!!!

This is just my own take, but I feel like at least part of the reason they went back to releasing new versions is because of the recent resurgence of macOS. Not only do Macs have the excitement of Apple Silicon, but they have annual "new" OS releases; even if not much has changed, it creates excitement with their fanbase. I think Microsoft realized that it's not very exciting to just be on Windows 10 forever. So we got Windows 11.

I'm hoping it comes to the NSO service soon. Of course there's nothing wrong with emulating, but it would be cool to play it on the Switch too.

Amusing that Twitter's cease and desist notice claims that Meta is using its "trade secrets". Lmfao what trade secrets? Twitter has no unique technology or patents. Their whole business position is nothing more than first mover advantage for their format of social media.

That's why they've never made money. They don't have any novel IP or "trade secrets" to leverage in the first place.

Say what you want about Meta, but at least they have a whole ad platform that they created that competes with Google Ad Sense, and is an actual asset.

For anyone who isn't familiar, RBG was a liberal Supreme Court justice that was getting very old, and a lot of people thought she should have retired during Obama's term, where she could have been replaced by him. Some accuse her of stubbornness/hubris for not stepping down when it was "safe", and point out that her whole legacy is now being undone.

Others point out that common wisdom at the time was that Hillary was going to he a shoe in as the next president, and nobody expected a Republican to win, including RBG.

Anyway, I'm not taking a stance but just fleshing that out for anyone who is interested in the controversy.

Oh man that is so generous of you! I wish I had seen this earlier, but I already bought one locally off of Facebook marketplace. Donating it is a great idea though, especially if you can find some charity that works with kids. Rock on.

You mean all the backups that I have of PS3 games from the console I never had? ;)

Thank you! I hadn't thought about the pads; I'll be sure to do those too.

Worse--I think it belonged to a teenager.
