Great point. Completely agree this applies to any niche games or even any niche market as a whole.
My personal connection and the reason I posed this is me considering whether or not to pay full price for the fate/stay remaster as well as the tsukihime release.
That’s a great point and I never looked at it as a dichotomy.
However, bugs aren’t something I typically run into due to the nature of the simplicity of VNs. It’s more of a question of do I give max support to my favorite developers or spread the support around in hopes of finding new projects from different developers besides my favorite.
The way you laid it out though helps me ask the question of which of those two is more important to me.
Asking the real questions!
We now have 3D printed euthanasia pods for people that elect to do so. First successful case was very recent. I don’t feel that adding some restraints would be a major hurdle.
If the death penalty unfortunately sticks around, this seems like a humane, cheap way to do so.
I agree that nitrogen can be used for a peaceful euthanasia. Definitely not the way they are doing it though.
I’m having trouble finding the link this moment but I remember reading about a billionaire or ceo public figure who is addicted to this game saying that productivity around the world will crash once this game was released on mobile platforms.
Edit: not some billionaire ceo. It was this link I was remembering:

Not sure if that’s better or worse lmao
That would be bad I agree. I however think what they’ve said still allows for a physical Ultimate edition release with all dlc included without the usual additions of “Royal” or “Golden”.
If you are correct that there will be no complete physical version then my feelings are indeed muddled.
Yo! I totally had made that assumption being a longtime persona/smt player but I see now that you are correct they have said that.
I’m still going to wait a bit and see, just picked up SMT V Vengeance so I’m in no rush but this is wonderful news!!!
Also waiting for P3R FES or whatever they are going to call it.
Women are the most vulnerable in the world and the most important thing is that they are not alone
Edit: to be fair I have been arguing with my family about reproductive rights for awhile (US)
Except she has had surgery?
https://www.screengeek.net/2024/02/02/erin-moriarty-plastic-surgery-accusations-response/
She hasn’t owned up to it but very much did not deny.
Edit: for the record I had no idea there was a whole thing around her a Megan Kelly. Can’t agree with all the hate.
That said, I’m replying to a comment about people having surgery/other medical procedures/drastic makeup etc that causes great changes and she was the first one that popped into my head. She hasn’t denied the surgery. Just said Kelly was spreading false news. But in all her statements she has never denied the surgery from my understanding.
I also don’t agree that it’s “fucking sad” as commenter above me states. She can do whatever she wants it’s her body. Having surgery or not doesn’t matter at all. I still hold that she looks drastically different from 5 years ago regardless of the reason.
She was literally the first person I thought of when reading this as well.
Which are bangin’ btw. Spicy goldfish. My kid loves them.
I don’t think you meant it like this but I couldn’t help reading it in the cadence of “if you’re sliding into first and your pants are gonna burst, diarrhea” lol
You’re probably right and I don’t really keep up to date with magicians but I believe he literally took a bullet to his throat when his bullet catching trick failed. I’d say that’s pretty close to dying.

Maybe you’re thinking of David Blaine who almost died from his stunts multiple times?
The sad part is no Republican since Eisenhower in 1960 has had a balanced budget.
Clinton handed GW Bush a budget surplus in 2001 and is the last time we’ve had a balanced budget.
So by your definition Republicans have not been conservative in a very long time?

Edit: I initially listed LBJs 1969 surplus as the most recent Republican balanced budget due to a brain fart forgetting he was a Democratic politician.
I see what you’re saying. For what it’s worth I never used either term. That was u/originallucifer.
You have piqued my interest though. What would you consider Republicans if they aren’t conservatives? I consider them Far right conservatives. Radical conservatives if you will.
I do not disagree with what you’re saying.
My point was that this hypocrisy about the national debt predates MAGA by like 40 years. I posted an article explaining it all. Two Santa Clause Theory.
That’s a great point and a very poignant reason for why patient gaming is important.
I think I was personally focusing on the saving money part!
