Thankfully, this vulnerability is unique to Macs due to some permission requirements in Safari. (I’m also on Linux).

In any case. Cool easter egg. I wonder if the rest of the map can be roughly lined up with Wind Waker’s map?

And the Temple of Time is there in BotW in completely unfamiliar geography— is it supposed to be the same from OoT?

Another application that is potentially filled with security vulnerabilities, takes up resources, and takes away my choice to choose where to buy the game. Believe it or not, being able to choose who I buy something from is a huge benefit. I can choose to support or not support the store of my choice, just like with…

It is a big deal though. The EGS has had major vulnerabilities found multiple times.

The more “launchers” I have on my system, the more at risk I am (as each has its own set of vulnerabilites). I don’t want that.... give me the choice where to buy the game.

I don’t know anyone outright against the Epic Games Store, but many PC Gamers hated the console exclusivity game and seeing it on PC is naturally pissing some of us off.

The 3D remake is going to play quite differently from what I hear. Different camera angle, slightly different battle system, and only single player instead of co-op. It’ll  be like a whole new game, which is probably the best way to do it.

letting classic Rare games like the Donkey Kong Country series show up on Nintendo back-catalogue services.

“DLC” vs Expansion is more of a Digital age issue than a micro-transaction issue. With an expansion, you essentially are expecting a company to halt development so they can ship you a pretty box (or download) instead of smaller chunks. That tends to not only be more work for the devs (with less money), but it also…

I think it’s really tricky here. With gambling, you are giving money for an extremely small chance of getting anything back.

I only have 2 questions in relation to this:

I don’t need to know any of that. Because we know that Valve is massively profitable, with an estimated 4.3 Billion made (as a conservative figure, not taking into account DLC and microtransaction money) in 2017.

Valve will do just fine at 12% their business model would not be under any threat.

Developers who created IP.

The whole point of Valve’s DRM is so that their exclusives can’t be bought for use outside of Steam.

Valve has a history of allowing their games to be sold on other stores (until those stores kick them off). Valve has historically been anti-exclusive.... to the point of being ridiculed for not using exclusives to sell their hardware (from Steam Machines to the upcoming Index VR).

I take issue with most of what you said. Valve is known for making their business practices as “pro-consumer” as possible, while also being a business. Much of what they do today benefits gamers of all platforms/stores as many of their newer projects are fully open source.

That’s the thing, it can’t be locked down in the current version of DragonRuby. That is coming later. The DevKit was built with a Win/Mac/Linux target first and consoles as secondary targets. The PC crowd likes having that kind of optional access and if Nintendo would let them, DragonRuby would leave that there for…

1. The very definition of “trojan horse” in computers is malware. The text I wrote up there came directly from an Anti-virus vendor describing a trojan horse.
