Cities Skylines 2 got announced. I played the first one when it came out but it started getting so many expansions I really didn't want to pay for that I very quickly lost interest. Hopefully the second one includes a lot of that stuff otherwise it's going to be a Sims 4 situation all over again.

@xianc78 @PhenomX6 it's not supposed to be a race swap lol it just is by circumstance because he goes from having brown skin to white skin.

@CumskinFoidPuncher69420 @LukeAlmighty this is what makes David so fucking unlikable

@coolboymew @Evv1L it went like
>M$ wants to buy acti-blizzard (almost exclusively for King and mobile shit but they want the whole package)
>Sony starts anti-competition lawsuit
>their biggest argument being call of duty exclusivity
>despite Sony having exclusivity deals (early access, exclusive maps/modes, etc) on every call of duty for the past decade, this now makes it anti-competitive
>Microsoft responds "we'll promise to not make cod exclusive to xbox"
>Sony still seethes
>Microsoft offers X years of cod on ps
>Sony still seethes
>Microsoft commits to putting cod on nintendo platforms
>Sony still seethes
>apparently bringing the game to more platforms is still anti-competitive to Sony lawyers
>FTC and other nations' federal money lawyers have to stop and look at this bullshit
>(almost?) all of them agree it's not anti-competitive
>Sony still seethes
In Microsoft's original response to the lawsuit, they requested Sony to reveal all their exclusivity deals over the past 10 years. The judge agreed they honor it, but only for like 3 years. Knowing how rarely Xbox does exclusivity, and how aggressively Sony does, they're never gonna win.


Keep in mind this deal isn't even about cod, candy crush makes more money than any other property in the deal combined.
Also keep in mind cod has done nothing to monopolize the casual military fps, battlefield killed itself and halo is irrelevant. There's nothing stopping Sony from trying to compete, they instead spend millions trying to block crossplay and force people to stay on their platform.

@coolboymew me programming every NPC in my game slightly differently because I feel like it

@Awoo close, but the natives were the ones who got pissy and killed women and children and were still given specific land and money, so I feel absolutely zero sympathy for them.

Localization of Japanese games has always been an issue. Western studios all the way back to the NES days have taken Japanese games and changed them in some way to try to appeal to the western audience more. Back then it was just trying to remove stuff like sex/nudity, since video games were seen as things made for children. Now, even things in M rated games are being censored, changed, removed, etc. It's not just the censorship, it's how often localizers actually just change things because they think it's better. It never is.

@xianc78 @PhenomX6 that is all over smash ultimate modding. There is a white race swap for Ganondorf but it is a mod to make him look like the dad from invincible, the guy who goes "THINK, MARK, THINK!" or whatever.

@LukeAlmighty you didn't miss anything, that's "just how night city works"

@maylay Wii U is the BEST emulation machine for Nintendo games. It sucks for just about everything else xD

There's no better way to play DS games, straight up.

@maylay I still have a launch day Wii that's been hacked since like 2008 and it's just fine. Have also modded dozens since then and haven't had any problems other than just plain old hardware failure, but that's always been before I got my hands on them so I'm willing to bet the previous owners didn't treat them well enough. The biggest problem I've had with a Wii was when my laptop would corrupt SD cards and so it would seem like the Wii was broken lol.
