I’d hardly count something like a simple Solitaire clone app that could be otherwise played for free as a full game release… In terms of actual games, I’d much rather support mobile ports that can be bought for a one time price tag than those that are locked behind a subscription in perpetuity.
Admittedly I did need a guide at times for Quern too; I think the best compromise is what Cyan did for Firmament and just include an optional hint system in the game itself. By avoiding the need to consult walkthroughs, not only would excessive spoilers be avoided, but the experience would remain self-contained, something especially important for a VR game.
Something they didn’t fix for the Myst remake that the Myst-like Quern is much better at is not making puzzles so obscure as to essentially require a guide to complete the game. Was anything done about that problem for the Riven remake?
It’s $3 a month and called RealDebrid + Stremio
If a homebrew game is popular enough, such as Micro Mages, you can sometimes find them in romsets. Unfortunately some cartridge-only and less popular ROMs take a while to get uploaded; took me a year to find a specific Genesis ROM that was cartridge-only.
Good on the EU for supporting consumer rights over corporate profits.
While many people in urban and suburban areas could effectively integrate bikes into their daily routines, it still ultimately depends where you live, given that many areas don’t have safe bike lanes or are simply too rural to be able to bike as part of one’s routine.
If you use an adapter, Windows still assigns A:/ and B:/ to floppy disk drives.
Sometimes I’ve noticed that a seller will repurpose the product page for a previously seemingly legitimate product with good reviews to sell something entirely unrelated while benefiting from the positive reviews of the prior product.
No need, Firefox buffer settings (media.cache) can be adjusted via the about:config page.
From the perspective of a piracy community, however, that’s not a win.
They need to self-host their repository if they don’t want to end up in the same situation…
As long as someone backed up the repository, it can still be forked, right?
Wouldn’t SimilarWeb not be counting people who watch streaming services via apps rather than their websites? As that would be most of the traffic for those services, it not being counted would skew results in favor of FMovies, since it doesn’t have a comparable app.
Unless it’s just taking a while to come down from the scene group heavens, some 4K TV show seasons seem to be perpetually missing, presumed due to Widevine L1. Oddly, sometimes half of a show’s 4K seasons are released while the others aren’t.
They still won’t listen; they want an excuse to raise subscription costs again while using it as a means of lobbying Congress to pass bills that favor them…
Private torrent trackers, usenet, and debrid services aside, qBittorrent + Jackett lets you search multiple public torrent trackers at a time, helpful for when one indexer has a release missing from another.
Depending on the situation, up to #13 for me. A caveat to that might be whether or not the creator has appropriately priced their product so as to justly compensate themselves without charging consumers excessively. While I had it in my Steam library already, Factorio deserves to be pirated for breaking with the standard practice of not raising game prices with inflation. Same with Sega’s anti-consumer move to remove the Sonic ROMs from the Sega Genesis collection to boost sales of Sonic Origins.
While it doesn’t do live TV and doesn’t work directly on an Apple TV, Real-Debrid is only $35 a year and is a relatively seamless Netflix replacement when used with Torrentio and Stremio.
Also have to make sure that the public WiFi network one’s device is connected to doesn’t block VPN connections, as was the case at at least one Walmart I tried using the WiFi at.
