@darth there's also The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. But I don't know, it's less impactful than Breath of the Wild and more predictable than Hugwarts winning.

has stated that the and refresh will be all digital and will not have an optical drive. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I fully understand this. Using optical media feels like something we used to do a couple of decades ago. At some point, it has to stop, and I fully recognize that this creates some challenges with video game preservation. But does it really? nowadays are so dependent on servers, patches, etc… that I suspect physical media or not the game preservation efforts cannot rely on discs alone.

@darth it has a good chance to be game of the year, it is a game that really makes you feel like you entered the Harry Potter universe.

I asked a software engineer once what it would cost to build this today. I will never forget his answer:

“We can’t, we don’t know how to do it.”

@whatatoots health is another one, working from home gives you much more time to work out before or after work and you aren't exposed to office foods and snacks that can derail your healthy diet.

Panos leaving Microsoft after creating and running the Surface hardware line over the past ten years to go work on Alexa & Echo devices is a massive W for Amazon and L for Microsoft.

This also has the advantage that my , , or isn't catching fire keeping up with the graphics.

So what I am saying I guess can be summarized as I value unique stylized graphics more than realistic especially when it comes with the added bonus of the game being more performant.

@gamingonlinux I think the damage is done, unless there's a complete change of management at Unity Technologies I think it is unlikely that the trust will not be regained.

I wasn't super mega keen on the

It seemed like an extension of the old Mario 3 cartoon and it was entertaining enough, but at least to me it was a little meh.

Not a terrible video game movie but not exactly Ready Player One or Detective Pikachu.

I would have preferred it if Peach was more Peach like and of Mario spoke like Mario. That’s just two small changes I would have made.

@AnnieRat1 I have this one too, but it's not so special to me that I'd get a cover for it 😉
