I understand the statement is about in-game stuff, but I’m guessing a lot of game developers have been using GitHub Copilot and this kind of “AI tools” for months.

Not much to complain about, we’re having a nice September. /s

Unions don’t work the same way in all european countries.

In France, the union I belong to is organized by local company and public service, with a spawling system of dual cascading federations by geographic sector and economic sector.

And there are several competing national union organizations which overlap. I don’t know exactly how the other ones are organized

Getting Nintendo would be a career moment for me

Who cares about your career? How could it be a justification for anything?

Picross games are the Nintendo version of the pen-and-paper puzzles called nonograms. I’m pretty sure you can find this kind of puzzles on steam or websites.

Fez: a 2D plateformer in which you can change the perspective to create ways to unreachable plateforms

Baba Is You: a puzzle game in which you move blocks with words written on them, combining them to create small phrases which become new rules of the game.

Full support for the strike.

I agree with you about a 3D Mario: it’s absolutely not incompatible with the release of Wonder. Also, it would be a good candidate to showcase the graphics of the new console, without taking much risks.

Mario Kart/Splatoon/Smash bros. They need a multiplayer game. For Mario Kart and Smash Bros, they have the same (fist world) problem: the switch versions have so much content that it’s difficult to hit harder. And it’s not nice of me, but I feel like they wouldn’t mind milking the Splatoon players.

Animal crossing. The license gained so much new fans with AC:NH, it would be suprising if they don’t try to take advantage of this new popularity.

Give us the chance to finally have one island per player on the console, and it’s a day 1 purchase with my SO.

I missed this point, sorry. I hope it will be released on other plateforms, including Playstation.

Recently released Lakeburg Legacy. It’s a small realm simulation: you build various workshops, allocate workers, gather resources, produce items to fill the need of the population.

And in the same time, each citizen had a love life, you can find them partners, chose talking subjects for their first date, decide if they should mary or not, some of them will break up after cheating on their partner…

I can’t count the number of movies with a scene in Paris, and the extras with one line of text have a thick american accent.

You have to be able to hear and to reproduce the sounds of the language.

I’m French, and I have an Italian friend. She can’t hear the difference between \u\ and \y\ For her, “dessus” (above) and “dessous” (below) have the same sound.

And I’ve never been able to reproduce the sound \r\ . I can only say \ʁ\ , which ruins any attempt to say something as simple as “ragazza” (girl).

The most interesting upgrades for me are Absorbing Man and, in a lesser extent, Hawkeye.

Absorbing Man, 4/3 was a way under the curve and it was hard to find an on-reveal effect to compensate this weakness. But 4/5 is pretty standard, so I wouldn’t be surprised to see AM duplicating Carnage, Venom, Korg, Debrii, Thor… Also, I feel like there’s something new to do with Black Panther (maybe in a Eletro Zola deck ?)

About Hawkeye, there is a niche for a 1/4 card: between the 1/3 cards with double-edged effects (Blade, Zero) and stronger cards with stronger drawbacks (Ebony Maw, Titania) or specific triggers (Human Torch, Winter Soldier). And I agree with you: with bounce back effects, there may be interesting things to do with this humble card.

It’s on my steam wishlist, now. Thank you for the recommendation.

The Binding of Isaac

Or Slay the Spire, if I want a turn based game.

It’s not a question of age, but of culture. Video game are no longer niche stuff for a handful of nerds. It’s a huge industry, like music or cinema.

People who say that games are childish are just trying to hide their ignorance.
