Imagine if all copyright claims worked this way. "Nintendo didn't opt out of me using their content, so I made a Mario game."

It's not so much about the shovelware crap they release every year, but rather about the IPs that they own but aren't doing anything with.

My middle school social studies teacher used to give extra credit on things if we brought in a newspaper clipping with a spelling error circled. I didn't understand until years later that getting us to read the paper was the goal, but it sure worked on me.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I actually like these "DLC Subscription" type things, particularly for older games with tons of DLC. There's a huge barrier to entry for someone trying to pick up an older game, and being able to pay $5 or $10 and 'demo' all of the DLC for a month is a nice way to see what's worth buying or if the game is even going to have enough longevity to make buying the DLC worth it.

Obviously when it's accompanied by a huge increase in the price of the DLC, it sours it considerably, but at its core, the subscription itself is not a bad thing.

Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed still holds up as, in my opinion, the best kart-racing game out there, for sure beating out all of the Mario Karts. Got high hopes for Sonic Racing Crossworlds.

Similarly, very much looking forward to Palfarm, assuming it's real (which it seems to be). Fuck Nintendo.

Why does this work (and why is it a morally grey area)? I'm so confused by this. Did they post the instructions themselves?

Edit: Nevermind, I see you explain it in the post; the content after the screenshot wasn't showing up until I refreshed.

I wouldn't have beaten the 'true' final boss without them. No way in hell.

Nine Sols did this perfectly. It's another very hard metroidvania, but it has some options you can enable if you want to that adjust the difficulty in a variety of very tangible ways. I wish that was standard.

It really wouldn't take much. Just some accessibility options to address some of the most punishing mechanics would do it. Would be great if mods solved this.

The high points of the game are very good. The low points ruin it, in my opinion. I get that frustration might be fun for some people, but I find it discouraging and I don't feel like Silksong wants me to be successful. It feels like it wants me to feel frustrated and angry, and that's not an experience I want to have. I doubt I'll finish the game, which sucks, because I loved Hollow Knight, and I love the parts of Silksong that aren't just making me mad.

It's the primary component in acid rain! In its gaseous form, it can cause severe burns from only brief contact! And would you believe that autopsies reveal this dangerous compound in the bodies of almost all deceased people? It should be outlawed!

Fun fact: It's actually possible for two countries to both be authoritarian!
