Uwe suck my Bolls, a fraud who did shitty movies on purpose in order to abuse German tax law loopholes that allowed for legal tax evasion

I will die defending kb/m superiority over controllers, mostly because most strategy games are not made with controllers in mind at all. Also because I hate having to wait for a camera to pan around when I can do a ~~very inaccurate~~ 180º in a fraction of a second

Me neither, but I guess once you start following enough people, or the platform has a large enough amount of people posting there, it becomes "interesting" by quantity, if not quality.

I think I tried twitter for a week back in 2018, didn't "get it", deleted the account. Tried Mastodon last year, enjoyed the much larger character limit, but didn't feel like staying.

Stopping the save timer should be relatively easy. Not that I'd know anything about that

There's also Unilever and Pepsico and their several brands to make people think there's a choice

Microsoft has had several country govt's dependent on their software for decades now (mostly Windows and Office, but also Azure lately). They were also deemed "not that bad, actually" by the courts for their 1990's fuckery, so I'd say they're the first dystopic megacorp we got.

Some douche had (still has?) all the trademarks on anything Edge related to games

Just wait a few more years and SSDs won't matter, loading screens will take forever again

Even if we took all these patents as valid back in 2021, they'd still be fucking stupid

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a game program, a game system, an information processing device, and an information processing method that can smoothly switch between a plurality of boarding objects in a game in which a player character boards an object and moves. [emphasis mine]

Nintendo mentions something from 2017, but I'm pretty sure World of Warcraft did something similar before 2017, possibly other MMOs as well. Reading a bit further, it sounds like automatically changing from an air mount to a ground or water mount without need for input, which Palworld doesn't do. You can glide and "auto dismount" once you hit the ground with certain pals, but that's it, you can't instantly change from a mounted pal to a different pal

Minecraft lets you throw snowballs at monsters.

South Park did it years prior and even had yellow snowballs :)
