rather more of them than on earth, according to the article.

Wowhead, the database of Warcraft items, lists 1,203 types of currency in the game. To be fair, some of those have been retired, and others are currency for a single item or purpose—but in comparison, the entire world (not of Warcraft) only has 180.

i’m the only one in my friend group that uses linux, but everyone else has like one or two specific apps they need for work that keep them tied to windows, and if those apps were available on linux, they’d jump ship in a heartbeat.

i’m a fry cook, so my work doesn’t care what OS i run.

people can, and often do, use things that they hate.

shuffling is a wildly different dance

you mean arena 5, surely?

from the article it sounds like they aren’t getting overtime pay, or any pay at all for the extra work days. instead they’ve been promised some extra paid days off in the future, but only after their current project ends, and only if they don’t get laid off by that point.

i just beat Spider-Man Remastered (2020) yesterday. It was pretty good! swinging around the city doesn’t feel quite as good as Spider-Man 2 (2004), but the combat is a lot of fun, and the story and pacing was great. once i 100% it, i’ll probably pick up the sequel when it’s on sale.

considering the mods aspect, gotta go with Skyrim and Minecraft for my first two. (do i get multiple versions of the game? if i have to pick just one, i’d have to browse some mod lists to decide for minecraft). and maybe a Dance Dance Revolution arcade machine of some sort.

edit: dwarf fortress is also a strong contender as well

why? oh, it’s got a million and one uses!

they had, but advanced mario people being how they are, they weren’t gonna quit trying to beat it just because no human ever had.

that is what the article is about, yes.

yeah, exclusives are bad for games and bad for gamers, but they are the only thing that sells consoles.

honestly couldn’t they easily sidestep that whole can of worms by requesting a ‘dwarves’ tag instead

i think ‘user replaceable’ should involve no tools, and a minimum of time. if step one involves removing eight tiny screws, and it only gets more cumbersome from there, i don’t think it counts.

my go to is frequently Puzzles. it is a bunch of classic puzzles rolled into one, and i’ll just go through my favorites on a loop. on a second hand, if you like rogue-likes, Hyperrogue and Shattered Pixel Dungeon are both fun free and offline.

i feel like there are two ways to interpret this question. some games are unpopular because they’re widely known, but considered to be not good, but others are merely niche games that never got widespread recognition.

for the former, Mad Max (2015) got mixed reviews and seems to have been generally regarded as MEDIOCRE, but i still keep coming back to it every so often. for the latter, I wanna plug an old PS2 game called Steambot Chronicles, that has never gotten the recognition it deserves. Its a steampunk mech sandbox rpg, and is legit fantastic, but my partner is the only other person i’ve met that has even heard of it.
