With that font I thought it was a reference to Strictly Come Dancing.

Obscure? I don't know about that, all the glitter is pretty dazzling.

So it's not just me. I thought they made it better eventually, seems I was too optimistic.

Impressions from watching someone play it: it looks like a clone of Stardew Valley. The music isn't terrible but I wouldn't say it's good. Some mechanics from Stardew Valley that weren't easy enough were changed, like fishing. I'm not sure that's bad for everyone, it can just be a casual game to relax.

Current consoles use x86_64 and Vulkan/DirectX don't they?

The Switch is ARM so not terribly exotic.

Not necessarily a bad thing if they can make the prices lower, if most people end up buying cheaper but adequate hardware developers will have an incentive to make their games work with that hardware. We have seen what games with NVidia partnerships ended up with in terms of bugs with ATI GPUs but aren't those problems less severe now?

Lossy to lossless is fine it's just a waste of space.

Or rest their head near the side curtain airbags. Loads of cars have them now.

If this holds up in court and becomes precedent it will create a lot of people with nothing left to lose with a lot of grudges against these companies. I can't say I would have any sympathy if executives became targets for heinous acts of violence stemming from such an injustice.

It isn't a security feature, more like a backdoor checkbox.

This is the team's YouTube channel. Not a headline.

I don't care about extra content, it is a welcome addition for games with long-term support like Stardew Valley. If the dev and publisher have a lot of money I do expect long-term bug fixing.
