Honestly, without dating and marriage I find this genre entirely unappealing. I liked Stardew Valley, but the character art really put me off which demotivated me for the dating part and I ultimately list interest in the game.

Is it known now if the game will have dating and marriage?

Why would you use population in the US to talk about diversity in a pre-industrial society in a location that wasn’t settled/conquered pretty recently by immigrants from all over the world? The US is pretty unique in that regard. The few other comparable countries might be Australia, New Zealand and to a lesser extend…

While there certainly were non-whites, they definitely were rare. When I grew up in Germany in the 80s and 90s there were hardly any people of African decent. The only one I knew was my dad’s cousin whose father had been a American soldier during WWII. Other people with darker skin were recent Maroccan immigrants and…

I think the problem there is that you need to get all the rights holders on board who might have different plans or are hard to track down (hello, No One Lives Forever)

As an adult with little time to play, Gamepass could hardly new less interesting. I get to play 3-4 games a year (been playing the first playthrough of Elden Ring most of this year) and getting the perfect game for me there matters a lot more than quantity.

Seems like the lower half off the face is not visible and behind the collar. At best part of a beard is sticking out

So weapons and spells do different damage and might have different speed in PvP?

Hah, it's the only thing I associate DICE with

“just to preserve their holding of IP”

That’s what I get for using the swipe typing without reading what it wrote. Corrected text:

The camera is sorry weird and I’m not even sure what’s going on there. It’s this a side-scroller but with a few camera like in Mario 64? Seems almost inpatient l unplayable that way. Is the camera like this for demo purposes only?

The poors might end up being the ones trapped by this. Avoid upfront cost you cannot afford and instead pay smaller, ongoing cost that eventually will be higher in total. That’s how poor people get screwed all the time. Cheap shoes that get replaced frequently because they are bad, but good shoes are too expensive…

Yeah, she also looked a lot more like Ellie in the game.

IMO the size of the Vita is so much better. I love the size and heft it has to it. It's a so much more elegant device than my Switch which looks like a clunky Android tablet with two joysticks attached.

And it ruined remote play for more than half the games. Remote play is awesome as it is. If the buttons had been there it alone could have been a selling point. In fact I'm considering buying a SteamDeck with the primary reason to install a client to play remotely on my PS5 when my wife is blocking the tv.

That stupid line there made me go straight to the comments. As you called out the memory cards were an issue. Other important differences are that the Switch can be plugged into the tv. It's also Nintendo's only console, so all first party games go to the Switch. The Vita was all but abandoned by Sony after their…

The actress is great, but so very different from Ellie. Too bag this wasn't made ten years ago when Elliott Page could have played the role.

But why did the port change so much how Ellie looks?

It actually has me concerned that they love away from the phenomenal, mostly guitar, but always vocal-free soundtrack of the game. IMO the soundtrack of the game to a large part created so much of the atmosphere and sounded much bleaker than what they used in the trailer.
