I can't speak to the quality of the original, but this game looks awesome to me.

This is still up on their FAQ:
Yes, the fee applies to eligible games currently in market that continue to distribute the runtime. We look at a game's lifetime installs to determine eligibility for the runtime fee. Then we bill the runtime fee based on all new installs that occur after January 1, 2024.
Also their game is literally $10 USD on Steam, compared to all the $70 ones that have been coming out lately.
I would assume their console export options are due to some kind of agreement with console manufacturers, as they keep their dev agreements under heavy NDAs. I wonder how this will play out.
All the hype I've heard about the original, I'm excited to try this! I played Sticker Star but none of the other newer games, which I understand isn't the best representation of the series
He's just calling Pressley a poser because the OG KKK votes Republican.
Via AP News:
The nearly 100-page indictment details dozens of acts by Trump or his allies to undo his defeat, including beseeching Georgia’s Republican secretary of state to find enough votes for him to win the battleground state; harassing an election worker who faced false claims of fraud; and attempting to persuade Georgia lawmakers to ignore the will of voters and appoint a new slate of electoral college electors favorable to Trump.
In one particularly brazen episode, it also outlines a plot involving one of his lawyers to access voting machines in a rural Georgia county and steal data from a voting machine company.
Huh TIL
I thought it was because 4k has 4x the pixel count of 1080p
Fallout 3 released two hardware generations ago at around 8GB. Fallout 4 released last gen and sits at around 25GB. One generation later, Starfield is launching at ~140GB - almost 6x the file size of the previous generation.
I can't speak for everybody, but my PC storage didn't jump to 6x capacity in that amount of time, and my download speeds didn't get 6x faster. But I imagine that's why it's concerning to some people.
Even just going by console standards, we're looking at only a jump of 2x capacity between the Xbox One and Xbox Series X - or exactly the same if you have a Series S. It takes up over 20% of the storage Series S in just one game - with a mandatory install, unspecified patch sizes, impending DLC, etc.
Obviously there's a discussion to be had of WHY the games are increasing exponentially like that, but on the surface that's likely where the bulk of the frustration comes from.
Yeah I currently have the sink between me and my counter, so I'm chopping veggies on the opposite side of the kitchen from where I'm sauteing them. This would be great for my use case.
Even for portability they have the 8bitdo Lite which is smaller than most modern phones. Wider surface area, fits in a small pocket. Works well with a tablet or laptop gaming setup.
This is good if you want even more portability, for a cheap $25 bluetooth controller with pretty great platform support. Some of my friends go to a lot of conventions and I can see them having a couple of these in a small pocket just to have something easy for multiplayer games.
For me, I'd likely use it like they show in one of their promotional images - keyboard shortcuts in art programs, etc.
It is a mobile game. They ported it recently IIRC.
