I always liked their UX, and never noticed any outright bugs?

But, yeah, definitely dislike the Spyware - I recall having to adb shell into the device and manually disable those processes after each update.

Shame they include that, their devices are (otherwise) really great.

It has a little something for everyone.

Pricey!

That garlic cilantro compound butter sounds like a great addition; well done!

I hope so too, but also highly doubt it. It is still Capcom, let’s not get too excited. 😅

As a player who’s played 4U, GU, World, and Rise; I’m kind of okay with that loss. The hunting side of things was always very weak and unintuitive (to me).

I think putting more emphasis on interactions with the world kind of help justify the existence of the open world - but more emphasis on finding and tracking monsters just seems like a step in a direction the teams - historically - haven’t been the best at.

This is just my opinion, though - shame to see a part you liked about the games being reduced.

Hearing statements like these really makes me appreciate the two studio/tag team approach Capcom takes to developing MH games.

I love that the portable/rise team is more focused on mechanics and systems, whereas the mainline team is more concerned with scale and simulation.

The fact that they can learn from each other and include the other team’s successful additions into their own mix really means each game is taking steps in the right direction.

The hype train for Wilds ain’t slowing down at all.

Turkish middle school, high school, and university exams are very serious.

Basically everyone takes the same set of long exams (with a few additions you can add to your standard exam sets, for specialized schools) and when the results come out, you are compared to all other students in the nation.

Like, think global leaderboards.

The best universities will outright reject you if your ranking isn’t high enough.

It’s very intense and cut-throat; so much so that - when I was a young’un growing up in Turkey - I just opted to try my hand at the SATs instead. Ended up going to school abroad.

The SATs were so easy, compared to the exam prep we did in our Turkish classes, it almost felt like a joke. Though, college tuition costs definitely made sure I wasn’t the one with the last laugh.

Its latest commit is from 4 days ago, so it looks like work is still ongoing.

It’s odd, but not unheard of for open source applications to have large windows between releases. They just might not have a reason to bump major versions, at the moment.

If you want the commits since 2022, you can always install a dev build from github.

Mine is in 6 days, oh boy.

The trailers keep getting better and better. So hyped for this.

Well, that just looks incredible. 2025 can’t come soon enough.

As a Turk, let me just add:

It’s very well known that the AA is basically just Tayyip’s propoganda machine. It’s a very hard bias towards whatever he’s looking to say, at that point in time, not necessarily right or left wing.

Bowl mixer? Just put on a podcast and knead that by hand for 15 minutes. Ez-pz.

Works fine, here?

Other than the slightly similar camera angle - and emphasis on slight: those games have very different styles of camera - those are completely distinct games.

I get the idea that you’re not a fan of those titles for their design choices which led to mainstream success, but holy crap give them an iota of credit.

That was Sony’s site. Super shitty what they did there.

But on the Steam Store page it was always “a PS account is required”.

I’m totally with you on that latter point - Sony needs to do something about that.

Well, to be fair, they did write - in bold letters - on the Steam page that a Playstation network account is required to play.

They simply didn’t enforce that rule up until now.

A game where you pay up front for access, as opposed to a free-to-play/freemium title where the initial download is free.
