Everybody gangsta with the “don’t be evil” clause until the authors turn out to be a nutjob who thinks trans people are blights against God and must be exterminated.

I doubt (or at least hope) that that’s not what they think, but hopefully that illustrates why the clause is dumb.

STOP doing manifest destiny

Nations were never supposed to span from coast to coast

Want to have more coastline anyway? We have a solution for that: it’s called a PENINSULA

Switching from Xitter to bluesky (or anything else) is much much much easier than emigrating.

I would absolutely classify it as “core gameplay” given that it’s the primary ranged weapon of both the playable character and most of the NPCs, past the crossbow. Saying “oh just ignore the stuff you don’t like” is pretty dismissive of critique.

And don’t get me wrong - mons with base building is a good idea, which is why I played it. But IMO palworld doesn’t do much with it but put the two concepts together.

Really buggy at launch (not sure if it still is). “Pokemon with guns” is the least creative direction to take the concept. Devs reportedly don’t know how to use any sort of SCM, a basic development tool

The “standalone version with the best mods” you made I assume

Unfortunately Nintendo’s creativity also extends to their legal department

To put it into perspective, the fine was 0.8% of that net income.

Damn why does all the software I want to use end up being developed by bigoted assholes. First nix now this.
