Unfortunately, NIMBYism comes into play should teens start making heavy use of any outdoor spaces, including trails and parks. Low or zero-cost can't be the only factor in providing places for kids, there also have to be protections against or ways to assuage older persons that are being fed constant streams of fear.

Yes, it's a light remaster of the 2005 release. Seems to be part of a larger effort on Falcom's part to get their older games more accessible on newer hardware. Players have needed a PC to have access to their catalog.
Subscribed to Imaginary Witches, thanks!
This isn't an anthology like most games in this genre (or video games in general). It's a continuous narrative, like a long-running novel or TV series. Newcomers could get on board with this one, since it's introducing a new cast and location, but they'll have to go back at some point. Otherwise, they should start at the beginning (Trails in the Sky). Even if newcomers start with this one, they are going to be lost in Daybreak 2.
That was Matsuda. He was replaced last year.
I suppose this is newsworthy because Kiryu's biggest splash so far has been saying they were cutting back on smaller projects.
Wish Capcom had learned from this, too. Monster Hunter World's multiplayer restrictions were so backwards, and now they are bringing them back for Wilds, ugh.
Crossposting from popular posts is also a good way to promote your smaller communities!
What I've been running into is that even if it's the same link, if you change the body text it won't list the crossposting.
lemm.ee has been great, very level-headed administration.
Welcome! Hopefully you know about Lemmy Explorer, I've found it very useful in finding communities of interest to me.
Much of this isn't unique to PC gaming. And if there ever was a dark age for PC hardware, we've recently crawled out of it, thankfully.
What bugs me the most right now (and doesn't quite get addressed in this article) is low performance standards. Everyone's pushing 4K and ray tracing, which makes it hard out here for us framerate nerds. It's starting to feel like every major release that comes out is Crysis, something for my hardware to grow into. Only with blurry anti-aliasing/supersampling techniques now.
One new, big positive I'm not seeing talked about much is a growing variety of Japanese publishers are taking PC seriously now, and that hasn't happened in over thirty years. I'm including Sony in this, even with their recent missteps in the space, and Square Enix's recently announced restructuring suggests simultaneous PC releases in the future for their games. That will inject some competition in PC gaming, although be aware that Japan has its own share of publishers that release broken ports.
I'm out of the loop, what are the highly requested features?
