Whcih makes sense when explained, but it seems like few hear that kind of comparison.

And then you bring up defederation and/or how instances can die at any time and you lose them again...

At least that's how it usually goes for me and trying to advertise Lemmy. Not really a fan of "microblogging" to begin with no matter the platform.

People who claim "guys" is gender neutral would most often only count men when asked the question "How many guys did you sleep with in your life?"

Until I find a single person who immediately thinks of people of any gender at that question, I will not fall for the internalized misogyny of "'guys' is gender neutral" meme. (Same with "dudes" and all the other ones I've seen over the years. I've even seen someone say "bro" is gender neutral.)

For sure, that's why my main accusation is them directing traffic to their bad article (could even be an attempt at getting search engines to associate their article with "android games 2024") and not the AI stuff. I just started with the AI accusation because it was funny to me when OP and you already talked about AI (in games).

AI or not, the post is poorly written and has little to no informative content.

I do agree with you though, some people through around AI accusations way too quickly. Especially when they spot mistakes. LLMs are very good at NOT making grammatical or syntactical mistakes in English. If anything, those mistakes are often a sign of authenticity.

What games use AI to enrich the user experience? Highly doubting that one.

Even more so, I highly suspect OP is written with anything but AI. Even if we give them the benefit of the doubt that they wrote it by hand, it's very suspicious that their article on mobile games in 2024 has a url that states they're about 2021 and mentions mostly games from back then. Using the Wayback Machine (I would never give them a click) reveals that it's (mostly) the same article over all those years with the year in the title updated and some layout changes to fit the layout of the website.

While I cannot say with near certainty that OP is written by AI, I do feel confident saying that this post exists solely to direct traffic to that shitty article.

It's not copyright, it's patents...

(I do also hope that they lose because ingame mechanics being patented is bullshit)

I haven't looked into this game beyond your description, but it does sound like a pretty weird model. Do you also have to pay for cards on top of that?

It's not a card game, it's an async autobattler. As long as all the characters are roughly balanced against each other, there's nothing to be gained other than cosmetics (at the current state of the game).

I hate to defend Nintendo, but they used their own Emulators in the NES and SNES Mini (Kachikachi and Canoe respectively). I would be surprised if they just yoinked one from the internet here.

From experience with the beta and memory, your wife (and you) will be able to choose which version to play. Either yours with a ton of DLC or hers with none. You should both be able to use the version with all DLC, but not at the same time.

It's been a while since we tested this though so things might have changed, including my memory...

after leaving can’t join another for a year

Can you fix this? There was enough misinformation floating around about this already when this feature went into beta.

Adults can leave a family at any time, however, they will need to wait 1 year from when they joined the previous family to create or join a new family.

it should say something like: "After joining, can't join another for a year"

Despite all that, there was the Warlock who Ninja'd the Sword dropping in Naxx on the final day. Fun times. Now that we're slowly approaching Classic MoP we'll finally see if the masterplan worked out too.

That data is also publicly available (of course), so a model could be trained on it. I'd love to say I'd doubt Google/YouTube would ever do that, but at this point nothing would surprise me.
