Title gore

I usually struggle a lot with American news titles because of a lack of capitalisation and a very specific syntax that probably only makes sense to a EFL speaker, but this one seemed quite easy to digest, honestly

I don't think lemmy supports markdown in the title, right? The article has the words Once Human in ~~cursive~~italics to clarify

[–] ech@lemm.ee 7 points 3 months ago

The accepted way of indicating titles without markdown is to put it in quotes, eg

"Once Human" Devs Delete Post...

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It doesn't. Also that's italic, not cursive.

[–] Donut@leminal.space 3 points 3 months ago

Whoops, not a native speaker

Didn't know italians wrote like that /s

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

They did, that's where the name comes from.

Tried my hand at rewording it:

Developers for the Game "Once Human" Remove Post Made After Game Breaking Update Requesting Positive Steam Reviews.

I'm no linguist, but I feel it's at least better than the original.

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works -2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I opened the article because of this. The company is called Once Human

[–] Catpurple@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 3 months ago

No, the game this studio is developing is called "Once Human". The studio itself is named Starry Studio.

[–] turtlepower@lemm.ee 14 points 3 months ago

Incorrect. The game is Once Human. The studio that made it is Starry Studio.

They were once human devs, but now the Fel has corrupted them...
