Interesting. When this all first went down and people started protesting it, I wasn't sure how much of an effect it would have, especially when Unity seemed to double down a bit a few days in. Apparently it has had more of an effect than I thought it would, if they not only changed the proposed terms but are firing Riccitiello.

Mind you, I think this is all shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted. The investors/board members (whoever has the power here) are spooked and going into damage-control mode, but the reputational damage has been done at this point, and I wouldn't be surprised if we see a sea change in developers moving away from Unity in the next few years.

Alright, props to whoever made that trailer, that sudden tone shift as the dinosaur appeared was pretty funny.

Quoting: soulsourceOne Deck Dungeon really delivers on that promise, btw.
It has been working just fine on the Deck for quite a while now (basically since they made a Switch version), but hadn't been verified yet.

Yeah, I picked it up sometime around the middle of last year when I first got my Deck as a nice non-fast-paced game, and I haven't had a single problem with it since then. Good to see it's officially Verified now, at least!

Quoting: preludelinuxjust add all 3. Of course we are talking about Minecraft i'm sure someone has already modded these things in the game already!

I've got crabs in my current modded server, and I'm pretty sure I've seen penguins in previous worlds with different modpacks. I'm not sure about armadillos, but I wouldn't be surprised.

QuotePenguin, Crab or Armadillo

Oh no, but I love all three of those!

It's been a few several quite some years since I last played Adventure Mode, but I'm looking forward to it again. I remember I once made a character with maximum dodging ability, and won fights against an impressive number of opponents by getting them to chase me until I had my back to a cliff or pool of water, then getting them to bull-rush me and leaping aside at the last second.

Quoting: Purple Library GuyThere is still enough left of my 8 year old self to insist that that dinosaur she's riding is not a parasaurolophus.

I was gonna say the same thing; it looks more like a carnotaurus with those horns. It's especially weird because in the video, at the 30 second mark, you can see someone riding what pretty clearly seems like it's meant to be a blue parasaurolophus.

A review I read on RPS suggested that there wasn't much overlap between the "monster battling" and "cozy farming sim" sides of the game, and that it was sort of a missed opportunity. Anyone who's played it have any thoughts on that? I like the idea, but I'm not quite sold on the game yet.

"This'll just be a small update for modders," Eric Barrone said. "Trust me," Eric Barrone said.

OK, he probably didn't say that last part. And as a developer I know all about feature creep…

Seems like a neat idea! I'll keep an eye on it as it develops.
