Quoting: LoudTechiethe common theme of slaying and becoming Gods(uncommon in western media, since in western religious practice gods are supposed to be immortal(has its root in the early days of Christianity and greek philosopher discussions), while in Shinto one can become and kill a god)That's not really a religious thing - you might find this documentary video on the topic to be an interesting watch!

I briefly misread Proton-Sarek in the headline as "Proton-Shrek" - that'd be quite a different piece of gaming software!

Quoting: JajcusArticle contains a suspicious link pointing to:That's an official Humble Bundle affiliate link, much like the one in the site sidebar. It's explained here (which is also linked at the top of every article).http : //humblebundleinc.sjv.io/Z6bonW
, that doesn't open for me (that is how I noticed) and which uBlock origin doesn't like very much.
I everything alright?

Quoting: MadWolfbut the problem with there strategy shude be as clear as mario and luigi big nose if Nintendo start acting like a bad guy then the consumers are going to boycot Nintendo that will cost them more money than Nintendo you will get form this lawsuit Nintendo may also lose sales to consumers seting sailI can tell you from personal experience that if you bring up rightful criticisms in Nintendo circles, people will tell you that "you should be grateful" for what they're offering, as if companies are your friends. Nintendo behaving like they are here won't change any opinions over on that side of the fence, unfortunately.
Quoting: MadWolfthe real question is what is Nintendo end goal to get the money IMHO thay don't deserve or to kill the competitionIt's quite likely they're after a settlement that will give them a permanent share of the profits from something that they weren't good enough to create. They've done it with similar legal threats against a mobile game company, before.

I suspect that it's more to do with Pocketpair doing something that Nintendo has failed to capitalise on, and Nintendo throwing their toys out of the pram as a result. A recent data-breach at Pokemon developer Game Freak suggests that some titles branching out from the series' norm (such as an MMORPG and a racing-game) may be in the works, for example.
At any rate, it's ridiculous and Nintendo clearly aren't playing fair. This sort of thing is why I'm an ex-fan who's now a PC-gamer.

Quoting: Talon1024We can at least be thankful that they generally don't go after Nintendo-style games, or games inspired by Nintendo games.Thanks for linking to my thread, here - I hope that people are finding it useful.
Quoting: Talon1024So I believe the real reason Nintendo went after Palworld is because, as many have pointed out, some of the Palworld creature designs are blatant ripoffs of well-known Pokémon creature designs.That seems odd to me, since countless games decades ago already did that, sometimes even more blatantly, around the time that Pokemon was being released outside of Japan (after being big in Japan for a couple of years beforehand), and Nintendo took zero action then. The likes of Bomberman Max, Keitai Denjuu Telefang, and Robopon are just a tiny few examples.

QuoteDo you like seeing me keep this list up to date and want me to keep doing it? Let me know in the comments. I genuinely wasn't aware of how much stuff you can get until watching it more closely lately.Please do! Freebie promotions like these are one of the things that set PC-gaming apart from consoles (and, from a nostalgic standpoint, they're the closest thing we now have to free full games being included on magazine cover-tapes back in the day ), and it's handy to know what's out there.

QuoteStuck for what to play next? Here's a fresh run over some games that recently became fully Steam Deck Verified for that click and play experience. No Unsupported or Playable here, all games listed have the big green steam deck verified Verified tick by Valve.I do still hope to see more coverage for Playable-rated stuff at some point, as I've had some instances where Playable titles worked perfectly out-of-the-box and Verified ones were a mess that required jumping through hoops to get them to behave.
QuoteWhat have you been playing recently? Be sure to recommend some fun stuff in the comments.I've just been emulating more classics via RetroDECK, as has been the case for me almost all year, since there hasn't been anything new for me of late. Over the last few days, I've played through Super Bomberman 3, the fan-translation of Super Bomberman 4, and the original Sonic The Hedgehog.

Quoting: scaineI'm blown away by how few of these games I've played! Eight! Just 8 games in that whole list!!
Quoting: NezchanFive here, and that's if you count demos.
Quoting: AnzaFour. Fourteen if demos are counted. And few of the demos I have installed, but haven't played yet, so the count could be even higher.Pff, I've got you all beaten! Zero, and I've only heard of a few of the listed games at all.

If anyone's familiar with the fan-made translation and quality-of-life patches from years gone by, apparently they brought those people in to work on this re-release, so it should be a good time.
