“yuzu and its team have always been against piracy. We started the projects in good faith, out of passion for Nintendo and its consoles and games, and were not intending to cause harm.”

The attention drawn to Yuzu being able to run these games at launch better than the Switch could was likely a big factor in this, yes. Tropic Haze accepting money (or requiring it if you wanted day one access to the newest builds) was a big factor too.

seriously...how is he supposed to light dynamite without his cigarette?

Leave socialism out of it. 

Yeah, I don’t get why people compare it to GTA... Maybe uhh, “Shenmue if Rockstar Games made it” or something goofy like that would be a better analogy? 🤣 Since it’s a life simulator with an overarching dramatic story it’s trying to tell, but it’s also got over-the-top violence and an off-beat sense of humor. 🤔

Training a program by copying a bunch of other people’s work and having it copy them over each…

IP ownership is often a very misunderstood topic, and often one that requires digging for information.

I would rather see a dozen more killmonger dread dos than another single generic protagonist crewcut

Gee it’s almost as if 3D modeling hair is tricky and shortcuts are used for better performance

Agreed, but make it mint chocolate cookie for me.

they needed more money IMMEDIATELY

Oh that is way too much money for DLC. I don’t care how big it is I’m not shelling out $54 CAD for an expansion.

It’s also very difficult to get an RTS to work on consoles, which limits your market. Although maybe now that both XBox and PS5 support keyboard + mouse, this will change
