Any reason why Keeper isn’t on the list? Is it bad?

You’re totally on point. Lemmy has a lot of people stuck in the past. It’s a significant bias.

The store will garner good sales and the Tekken devs will eat well. This will be enabled by people who see value in their work and happily pay for it.

It really doesn’t matter what a vocal minority thinks, when the valuable non-vocal minority is out there paying big bucks for Kazuya in a fundoshi.

In order to reach new heights as a game service, Tekken needs all the money it can get.

People also seem to forget that Tekken started off in arcades. These arcade releases were far more aggressive in their monetization, especially in Korea and Japan. You would have people paying 5-10$ for a couple of hours. Players would also have to pay for their online player IDs.

Tekken 7 still had this business model. The game released for arcade in 2015. 2017 for all platforms.

The game was thoroughly milked before it was more accessible.

I believe Spotify did this back in the day in order to hide as much of their AB testing from Apple who is essentially a competitor due to iTunes.

Having much of the UI delivered via web also makes it easier to deploy updates as no software update is necessary.

Somehow this reads like a Mars Volta song and I’m here for it.

She’s an optional boss. You don’t need to beat her to finish the game.

Samsungs have this built in natively. Press record. Press pause to pause. Press record for more. Press stop to finish.

If you want the exact UX, then I dunno.

Oh fuck, gonna refactor asap!

That one is bad, I use this one https://www.npmjs.com/package/is-is-is-even

It’s probably US-bought goods they’re using to fire. Return customers are good for business.

I don’t think the game is particularly more difficult in terms of mechanics.

It just has more enemies that deal more damage per hit.

However, I’ve hardly got any extra hearts, but the game never 1-hit-kills you. So as long as you eat plenty of food, you’ll always be okay.

Enemies can be very spongey if you don’t engage in the fusing mechanic. I’ve found crowd control weapons to be the best. Topaz, opal, ruby and all those are great. Combine them for bonus elemental damage. Freeze this biggest baddie and kill the fodder with some generic spear you made.

Auralnauts made Kenobi a solid 10/10

One could say… The early bird caught the worm.

They broke up a couple of months back. Something must have happened.

Palpatine has been defeated 2 times, It’s like poetry, It rhymes.

Boring meetings and/or uninspiring rote programming: Tekken 7.

Tired: Age of Wonders 4

Chill with the missus: Tears of the Kingdom / Oxenfree 2

The more things are added in the continuity, Obi-wan becomes a weirder character.

Episode 5’s retcon of Anakin Skywalker turns him into a liar. 6’s retcon of Leia makes him into an even greater liar. Maybe he had his reasons to lie that hard, but yeesh.

Then we get to the prequels. He is warned that the senate is led by a sith lord. Pretty much ignores it. Our dude also trains space Hitler despite initial protests on picking up “another pathetic lifeform”.

Episode 3: He is given the chance to kill him, can’t do it. Yet in episode 5 and 6 Obi is egging Luke on to kill his own father.

With the Obi-wan series we are given even more meat to this with him once more backing out from killing a defenseless Anakin/Vader.

With all that said, Obi remains my favorite. There is some dissonance in the story, but I like to think that we are viewing the history of Star Wars through several accounts, which lends to different perspectives.

r/tekken is sorely missed. Same applies for r/starcraft. I guess there is a com for StarCraft, but it seems quite dead.
