CrossCode, for the third time in about two weeks.
I’m 5 years late to it because for some reason I thought it was a JRPG…

Following the analogy, what if the screwdriver part was bent by 30° and you had to awkwardly turn the tool while keeping it tilted - but there’s also a spring mechanism that attempts to retract the screwdriver you push too hard against the screw?
(all of that for historical reasons, of course)
((or even to discourage you from using the tool?))
Not necessarily.
They’re a basic data structure used everywhere, most notably with command arguments ( $@
) and can make shell scripts a viable option for many simple tasks if their syntax makes sense and you don’t have to wonder how their expansion works every time you see one being used.
Zsh, because unlike Bash using arrays in Zsh doesn’t make me want to perform percussive maintenance on the nearest Von-Neumann machine
I have a few in my library:
I don’t think these games aim for nostalgia, nostalgia alone is not a good reason to choose low-poly or low-res graphics.
Low-res textures and sprites have the advantage of being much easier for artists not only to hand draw, but to explicitly choose what details to give to a certain surface.
3D games with low-res rendering also have their own appeal, like you say: they tell you what you’re looking at but still leaves your imagination the burden of filling in the details.
To me low-poly models don’t really have their own appeal, unlike pixelated visuals, however I also don’t mind them at all.
I still occasionally play games like Perfect Dark and TLoZ: OoT on their recompiled PC ports, they look good despite their low-poly nature because they don’t need high-poly models and their animations would look uncanny if they did (goofy ahh textures though).
However, there are some retro effects that I find to be straight up ugly: Signalis applies a CRT effect occasionally, which I can’t say I’m fond of.
Didn’t that turn out to be an issue related to adblockers?
Why would a car have a pet?
I’m not sure, at least the unrepairable mess made by Microsoft is software rather than hardware - you can reinstall a janky OS but you can’t unexplode a phone that disassembled itself when you sneezed in its general direction.
There’s no fine line between the two companies.
Edit: they continuously fucked up Halo in unexcusable ways, fuck them, they’re worse than Apple. Forgot about that.
Microsoft is definitely the corpoest of them all.
Probably not the worst corpo, likely even, but out of the corpos, they are the most corpo corpo of any corpo.
They say 2 wrongs don’t make a right, but 3 rights sure make a left
With the last two big things I’ve heard about (Yuzu and… Dolphin, I think?) they were legally in the right, but at least where I live there is absolutely no way to spin a recompiler + asset extractor as something illegal - they can’t even claim the developers are circumventing DRM, because OOT and MM didn’t have any.
Though, I would not be surprised if there’s something in US law that can be exploited for this.
Ship Of Harkinian (and similar projects) have kept gping for a long time, and they don’t do anything remotely illegal either
I see it more like a “we’re good for now I guess, fuck around again and I’ll change it back to negative”
10% is a lot by I WANT MORE MONEY RIGHT NOW shareholder metrics
Agreed. For detecting cheaters, statistics work like a Dream
I’d imagine some of them are here:
(edit: forgot to un-dox the user)
If that’s the only problem, can’t you make a new one?
I don’t think references are variables: you can’t modify them, and AFAIR you can’t have pointers to them, with the possible but unlikely exception of non-static member references.
Hot take: A scripting language is a programming language whose execution starts from the beginning of the file | stream.
If you want to comb the game for unique dialogue and Lea expressions, make sure to start and finish a Sergey Hax run when you do get back to it
