Too little, too..

and it lets Sims open their own tattoo parlour, pottery studio or - if you have the right complementary expansion - a cat café.

Fuck.

Out of a cannon, into the sun?

Flashpoint has pretty much every Flash game and animation ever made, no matter how niche, except for a few that the creators asked them to remove from the collection. I believe the full collection is over one and a half terabytes.

It sounds like they didn't, but apparently Microsoft forgot to put together a contract for further work they were doing for the Master Chief Collection, so they were able to hold the MCC port of Halo Anniversary hostage contingent on Microsoft removing the clauses that had blocked royalties in their original contract. So they did get royalties for that port that amounted to tens of millions of dollars, but nothing for their original work.

Are certain features still introduced when you hit population milestones? I haven't played since 40d, which was... a while ago, but I liked playing without worrying about nobles or the greater economy or any of the other features that complicated the game even more. Just a small band of dwarves living their ~~brief, hellish~~ dwarfy lives.

And then Microsoft screwed them out of royalties, according to the article. I feel like they should have included that in the title.

Agreed. Dishonored came close, but also punished you for fighting lethally (which was 90% of your kit) so your melee options were limited to stealth finishers if you wanted the best ending. Mount & Blade was another decent try but I never loved its melee mechanics.

Dark Messiah also had the best spiders ever. It's been nearly twenty years and nobody's managed to top its implementation of one of humanity's primal fears.

We call this the Haber Flip.

You must avoid the Yakuza series at all costs.

I used to play through the Baldur's Gate trilogy every few years. Haven't done that in a decade because I look at the three hundred hour playthrough time and know it'll never happen.

Edit: "Trilogy" being what fans called BG1+2 plus the Throne of Bhaal expansion to 2. It's kind of weird now that there's an actual Baldur's Gate 3.

There's an old video where someone converted songs to MIDI piano and the vocals are still almost distinguishable. It's purely an illusion and it only works if the listener knows the lyrics, but it's pretty convincing.

Check it out.
