Or I think of Shenmue I & II, where d3t had access to some of the source code for the Xbox port of Shenmue II, they had to reverse-engineer a number of files from assembly code. And for the first game, they had to jury-rig everything and use Google Translate to decipher comments left in the code.

One slight caveat: I believe both Microsoft and Sony require the game on the disc to be playable, so something will be playable via disc if the servers go down. It might be a mess and missing some elements (or like one of the recentish Tomb Raider games, literally have a different ending) but in theory those games will…

As I look at my aging PS4 and the monolithic ps5 in my house. It amazes me just how little ps5 specific things ive got.

The thing with preservation after the xb360 and ps3 is that most games are downloaded anyway. Once those authentication servers go down, most of the games aren’t on disc anyway; a lot of games cannot be played with the day one patch; etc. There are already existing issues for game preservation that aren’t being…

It’s not a traffic stop if there is an incident literally occurring in the middle of the road. False equivalence is strong here.

Imagine being such an idiot that a person would conflate pulling someone over for expired tags with a person stopping in a traffic lane to get out and hit another person’s car, as though those 2 circumstances are at all related.

People somehow think it's only freedom of THEIR speech that matters.

There’s a famous quote on this one, but it’s slipping my mind.

Because the peanut gallery still hasn’t learned this lesson. 

Oh and also there are a few now-distinctly female names that used to be either male or unisex. (“Hail to the king, baby.”) Bet they’d wanna block those too.

Does saying that make you feel better about having no moral core or convictions at all?

Good. Fuckin' snowflakes.

“Both sides!” “Both sides!”

I bought an unlimited lifetime account years ago. This makes me want to support them further.

On one hand, they should have just said “We’re removing this because it’s the right thing to do.”

Typical, insulated man-children. Afraid of the world, but feel they deserve to own it.

You’re right, we need to refer to these people as what they really are: pedophiles, rapists and nazis. I’m so glad we’re on the same page about this!

Why do bigots always forget that just because they have a right to speak doesn’t mean that anyone has to listen?

Now I want to make and upload a mod that does the same thing, or adds “trump 2334" flags.

This is very snowflake behavior from people that are always complaining about snowflakes. By default the pronouns conform to traditional norms, they are already chosen based on your chosen body type it’s a deliberate choice to change them. And ~40 hours in I don’t see how it affects gameplay one way or another.
