Jokes on Sony, they stopped getting my money years ago.
You are absolutely correct, but the article OP posted was for a specific Populous game, the 3rd one, which came out in 1998 lol. They just didn’t put “: The Beginning” in the title.
Edit: Also the first release was 89 not 88.

A lack or originality begets a lack of originality. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ If you want an original response, don’t use an unoriginal insult in the first place lmao

Only one I’d give Paradox any money for at this point! lmao
Yep, have existed for decades lol
Hell, their first sentence fragment isn’t even always true lmao
Been a bit but I think the one I was more hyped for was Paralives (which you’d expect to be the one from paradox given the name lmao)
Paradox’s Sim game was the least I was looking forward to of the upcoming Sims spiritual successors, ya know, cause it’s Paradox…
…but still, fuck.
As someone who gets comics from TG up and including last night: Shit.
Edit:
This was posted to their telegram channel according to reddit’s piracy sub, so everything is fine.
A hope which at this point should be abandoned, sadly.
Wish the guy well, but it’s very clear he isn’t cut out for admining a site at this point.
*ba dum tsh*
(But to actually answer, myself, and another mod. I do 99% of the news and discussion thread posting since I got the time to and we’re still small [just 230 people as of right now, but growing].)
Bingo!
Same. I run SquaredCircle (the fediverses main wrestling community) which was started on kbin.social back when the Reddit protests occurred and 5-6mo ago we had to move the whole community from kbin to lemmy.zip cause the frequent errors (when posting, upvoting, boosting, fucking browsing, etc) were basically driving us insane (and given the community is based around timely news and discussion threads it basically kills it.
Doesn’t help that every 2-4 months Ernest pops up and goes “I’m still here and working, all is well!!” and then disappears for another 2-4 months, rinse repeat. Won’t blame the guy for a failing marriage and health issues but I will blame the guy for not having other people fucking develop the shit too.
Good ol’ disappointing kbin.social lol
What people need to learn is that “indie game” it’s not a synonym for good, or worthwhile. I’ve pirated tons of indie games which wereamazing and I ended up buying.
I’ve also pirated tons of indie games that I wouldn’t have spent a damn dollar on because they absolutely sucked.
Pirate indie games all damn day. Pay for the ones that aren’t flame-broiled ass. Don’t reward people who asset flip or put 5 mins of effort into something just because the game is listed under a category called ‘indie’ lmao
Whoa, whoa whoa whoa WHOA…reading the article explains the article???
Edit: Not a big fan of humour 'round these parts? That’s fine, I get it, it’s not for everyone. Take care, folks.
