J’ai vérifié ce matin, ma ville n’est pas encore prévue dans les plans de déconnexion de l’ADSL. Pas demain la veille qu’on me proposera la fibre j’ai l’impression…

Je sais à peu près pourquoi, on n’est pas prioritaire parce qu’on a un ADSL plutôt très correct, et qu’autour il y avait urgence. Mais bon, quand j’ai un téléchargement sérieux à faire je cracherai pas sur la fibre.

Yeah, beside specifying what you mean with Zelda-like (og LoZ? aLttP? Classic 3D Zelda? Open world BotW?)…

Also depends what you mean with customisation. If you want games that go crazy with both cosmetic and optimization/equipment management, Xenoblade Chronicles games kinda fit the bill. Especially X that’s getting a remaster soon. That one has avatar customisation, different classes, an absurd number of equipment slots for both you and your mech. And stats. So many freaking stats.

They’re not exactly traditional action games the way Zelda usually works though.

“Stop being a country already!”

The ones that leap out of water to get you on world 3 were already quite stressful.

That fish didn’t terrify me near as much as the angry sun though. Back then I often did “almost complete” runs where I’d just kept a lakitu cloud to skip the sun level from world 8.

On the part about Cappy tricks, not sure why the author forgot all 3D Mario games have always included more or less complex move tricks/combos.

Mario 64 already had triple jump, wall kicks, diving/sliding, long jumps, side jumps…

Super Mario Sunshine added a lot of complex moves with FLUDD, and even a limited way to make your own platforms. Odyssey just does it a lot better IMO. I kinda hated Sunshine Yoshi.

And it’s not like the more complex combos are required to finish the game. Occasionally you need one for 100% completion, but most of the time they’re just cool tricks to pull off to reach a place faster, or just grab a few coins.

“We’re only asking about those outrageous monetization schemes so we know how much you hate them! We definitely didn’t consider them!”

Yeah, testing the waters.

Further clarification from Steam :

I do not have a sex crime. I’m not going to go into specific charges and such or tell you the story. What I did was wrong and that’s all you need to know.

She’s right, this is not really anyone’s business.

According to the announcement, the other developer quit game development some time ago and isn’t active anymore.

It’s all about pride and accomplishment, you know.

I’m so glad none of the games I care for went for a free to play/microtransaction model. Or maybe including these into their core design is a big part of what makes them unappealing to me.

Can’t disagree with that.

Depends. Microsoft might be to blame indeed but I’ve seen several people saying Ubisoft has a habit of using undocumented non-public API.

If they’re not supposed to use it to begin with, it’s their fault when it doesn’t work anymore. That would certainly explain why it happens to almost nothing but Snowdrop powered games.
