Yeah they've always been able to just long press on a file to mark a batch of files to be sent. Any use cases for archives they had were solved adequately by this. However, those aren't better solutions. There are other use cases for archives which those systems can't solve. The companies you point out that develop mobile-only, are hamstringing themselves IMO. I can think of a couple of occasions where I've disengaged with a company specifically because they pushed all possible interactions through their app with no redundancy, and then some function in the app didn't work

I think a compromise on copyright could be a good middle ground in future. In the same way that I'm happy to wait for a game to go on sale before I buy and play it, I'd be happy to wait until a movie or series enters the public domain so I can consume it without paying. Obviously not for hundreds of years, or 56 years. But if Netflix/HBO etc shows and movies became free to watch after 6-7 years, most piracy traffic could be easily captured by legal platforms that are more convenient and accessible to more viewers. I struggle to see how it would not further relegate piracy to a niche activity done by very few, or be bad for the content producers in any significant way

It's the mocap/animations. Every character in every scene in the trailer is fully mocapped. Crowds dancing in sync together at a club, reacting to eachother on the beach, parking on a busy street and exiting cars. I'm sure some of it is in the game, in scripted encounters. Probably not random sandbox gameplay people think of when they think GTA

Here's the link to the episodes on bilibili, my VPN doesn't have any China endpoint so they're blocked: https://www.bilibili.com/bangumi/play/ep748347

Had a look in my usual areas and found listings but no sources. Listings were only added recently though (11/30/23) so maybe international distribution is being organised.

How is it blocked? Could you work around it with a debrid service? i.e no torrent protocol

That statement just screams "I don't understand how the internet works"

Eh, I only meant hyperbole in terms of antipiracy affecting the pirates that had to figure out how to crack it. As a broad gesture at the fact piracy (consumption) depends on piracy (effort) to work

Wait, but they already launched it without Denuvo. So pirates can easily crack the launch version without it, and only paying customers need to deal with the antipiracy bullshit? Nice, they took a pro-piracy hyperbole and made it actually real.
