Rashid is available on SF6

Is part of character pass but can be purchased with SF6 coins (you need to use real money).
I really hate Capcom doesn't let cross-progress. Cross-progress is getting common for some publishers, specially for those with self-account system -f.e. Disney or Blizzard-, people should push publishers like they did with cross-platform.

Apparently the latest Pathfinder patch adds tracking software to your PC?

"We have implemented a 3rd party service named Appsflyer — an industry standard tracking solution for user acquisition for computer and mobile games. This solution allows developers and publishers to understand which part of players have purchased the game due to the impact of their advertising campaigns. It will help us to define the key metrics of the campaigns and significantly improve our marketing efforts. Though Appsflyer is fully compliant with GDPR and other data processing regulations, we needed to reflect its implementation in the game's EULA, which resulted in improvements of the paragraph 3.1 of the respective EULA.

All of the features below are built with player privacy in mind; Steam will continue to not share personally identifiable information. This approach to privacy means that some trade-offs have been made along the way that limits how specific some reporting can be. In most cases, it simply means that any traffic sources that are below a threshold of volume will get reported as "other". We intentionally don't collect or store demographic information about users such as age, gender, or race.

Recent reviews for WotR dropped down to mixed to they were scared off. Complaining on the internet works again!

It's so dumb because like, 90% of people don't care much if something new comes out and implicitly tracks stuff like that. But like 95% of people hate, HATE when you add in stuff like this after the fact.

If you're going to put a Sauron eye in your app, just start with it in there and you'll be fine

2nd cour announced
I've been wondering for like the last year now... When did seasons become "Cour" in anime fandom?

We used to just say "Season 2" but now everyone says "Cour" and I don't understand why... Is it just because anime production has gotten so long and busy that they don't make full "seasons" anymore?

Back in my day when we were waiting for Code Geass S2, no one was saying "cour..."

I must admit, super bummed, that I’m beginning to actively dislike Disco Elysium. It’s just too tiring to play for me.
Planescape is my GOAT, and this is making me wonder if I would like it today. It’s a never ending torrent of prose. Pia pia pia. Every NPC has a rich dialog tree. Your inner self has a rich dialog tree. To the point that I at times stop playing because I’m in front of a new NPC and I’m wondering if the fucker will take 10 or 20 minutes to handle.
It’s so rich with skill checks too, so dense that unlike more basic RPGs you can’t guess the obvious hidden bars to fill in order to get what you want, it’s so fucking rich that you could get paranoia clicking on this option instead of that one.

Not saying the game doesn’t have its upsides, not the least of all some genuinely funny moments. But it’s so much, it’s so everything all at once.

And again, that bums me out. I don’t want to dislike DE, and neither to only be able to play simple games.

I bought DE at launch and I have yet to play it and your post well encapsulates why. Somehow in the last five years I haven't found myself being in a mood to be attracted to a game where talking to every character is 20 minutes of reading "rich prose".

In other news, I finished Jagged Alliance 3 and for me that was a great combination of reading and gameplay. Loved it!

Both terms, season and cour, are used for different things.
Using Code Geass as an example, season 2 has 25 episodes, the anime aired between spring and summer 2008, so the 1st cour of season 2 was the group of episodes that aired during spring, and the 2nd cour the episodes that aired during summer.

The term cours started being more used recently due to some animes having a break in their season, for example, Spy x Family 1st cour airing in spring, then taking a break during summer, and lastly the 2nd cour airing in the fall, yet both cours together are still considered season 1.
There's also many animes where a season fits in a single cour.

So, basically from what I understand, the term season is used for a group of episodes that airs either together or with a small break in-between, a group of episodes that is tied together independently of the amount of episodes.
And the term cour is used for a group of episodes that airs during a specific quarter of the year, usually around 11 to 13 episodes, though sometimes it could be less.

The ESRB has proposed that the FTC greenlight facial recognition technology as a method to detect a user's age.


In collaboration with digital identity firm Yoti, Epic Games subsidiary and software company SuperAwesome, the proposal claims that the Privacy-Protective Facial Age Estimation is said to accurately determine a person's age.

The process steps of verification include:
  • The user takes a photo of themselves
  • The system then checks if there's a live human face in the frame
  • The image is then uploaded to Yoti's backend server for estimation
Regarding safety concerns for those who use the technology, including minors, the proposal said, "Images are immediately, permanently deleted, and not used by Yoti for training purposes."

Additionally, the document claims that the facial recognition does not presential a substantial risk to parents' privacy or potential biases.
Getting some big "won't somebody please think of the children" vibes with this proposal. While I'm too old to be affected by this, I find the entire concept to be ghoulish.

I bounced off DE multiple times, despite following it's development and being super-hyped for it. It wasn't until months after the Final Cut released that I finally gave it a serious go and finished it. I ended up LOVING it, but also, I was definitely in the right mood at the time.

I have had similar issues. I have bought Disco Elysium based on all the reviews. But I just can’t get the will up to playit. I am guessing it may be an age thing as my tastes have adjusted. 10 to 20 years ago I would have been on my 6th or 7th play through.

but now I would much rather be playing Terraria, Stardew Valley, Minecraft, Star Valor, Caves of Torment and so on.

on a completely separate note, anybody know of a vampire survivors type game that has co-op/multiplayer. Been really enjoying Caves of Torment recently.

Dunno where to ask this but I just saw Futurama is on D+.. says 2023 and season 1... It's just the OG being released right?
Hulu made a new season of Futurama and they put up the first episode yesterday. I'm guessing in regions that don't have Hulu it's on Disney Plus.

Traditionally, a release of just one survivor would be cheaper than this, but they packed in cosmetics to raise the price for the Steam DLC version. Ew. Can probably still get Cage at a more reasonable price by spending DBD funny-money, but that requires buying an amount of auric cells greater than what you'd need to pay for him.

It's not that bad by the standards of the modern gaming industry, but I'm still going to be mildly grumpy about it.

We're truly entering a glorious age

If this is using same old engine as the Souls games I wonder if they patch in 120fps support for all the older games. I've been wanting to replay DS3 for a while now so that would be great.

Also if Bloodborne ever makes its to PC could it do 120 as well? I guess From would have to be the one doing the port.

120fps From Soft Mech goodness :coffee-blob:
Really excited, but I'm probably not picking it up on release - too busy with other stuff. Might do what I did with Elden Ring and pick it up around Christmas/New Year after it's been patched for a while, cheaper and I have vacation time.

Yep, In this case I just literally translated the youtube title (I use "2nd season" too with people I talk about anime).
But well as far as I know some people says "cour" got more common with covid-19 anime delays, that many animes got axed in the middle of the regular season (beyond their usual three months "cour"). Since Nier was one of those very affected animes by many factors, kind of makes sense.
