Honestly, I'd be down for that. I love dogs

Is Lemmy growing or shrinking? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

I would suggest looking at other Kbin instances outside of kbin.social. or look to mbin, which is a fork that in told is more stable. I also haven't made the jump from Kbin, but have been having similar issues with usability with it for awhile.

I find it interesting, especially for games from smaller teams. But I suppose that don't really add anything to the larger conversation. I just find it interesting to hear how some of these games are doing.

I hope they continue to release AA titles though, like Star Ocean and Harvestella. They actually released a ton of games over 2022/2023, but at some point I think they were competing with themselves.

It doesn't, but most game sales are front loaded at release. Having 8 months on the shelf still makes a difference, for sure, but it's still notable that it was number 1.

Correct. When I found out it wasn't going to be on steam, I figured I'd get a physical copy for the PS5 instead. Found out that wasn't all option either...
