Great point. Completely agree this applies to any niche games or even any niche market as a whole.
My personal connection and the reason I posed this is me considering whether or not to pay full price for the fate/stay remaster as well as the tsukihime release.
That’s a great point and I never looked at it as a dichotomy.
However, bugs aren’t something I typically run into due to the nature of the simplicity of VNs. It’s more of a question of do I give max support to my favorite developers or spread the support around in hopes of finding new projects from different developers besides my favorite.
The way you laid it out though helps me ask the question of which of those two is more important to me.
Asking the real questions!
We now have 3D printed euthanasia pods for people that elect to do so. First successful case was very recent. I don’t feel that adding some restraints would be a major hurdle.
If the death penalty unfortunately sticks around, this seems like a humane, cheap way to do so.
I agree that nitrogen can be used for a peaceful euthanasia. Definitely not the way they are doing it though.
I’m having trouble finding the link this moment but I remember reading about a billionaire or ceo public figure who is addicted to this game saying that productivity around the world will crash once this game was released on mobile platforms.
Edit: not some billionaire ceo. It was this link I was remembering:

Not sure if that’s better or worse lmao
That would be bad I agree. I however think what they’ve said still allows for a physical Ultimate edition release with all dlc included without the usual additions of “Royal” or “Golden”.
If you are correct that there will be no complete physical version then my feelings are indeed muddled.
Yo! I totally had made that assumption being a longtime persona/smt player but I see now that you are correct they have said that.
I’m still going to wait a bit and see, just picked up SMT V Vengeance so I’m in no rush but this is wonderful news!!!
Also waiting for P3R FES or whatever they are going to call it.
I could’ve been more clear and I hope I have been at this point. Hopefully we’ve helped some other see things differently.
My experience suggests that there is a difference between most places, places with substance users. Places that make mistakes at hiring and maybe someone does drugs once or twice in the walk in before being caught.
And places where people are using drugs in the walk in while leaving evidence and it is to the point the owner has to investigate because the chef/coworker/manager hasn’t already brought this to the owners attention.
Therefore this place appears to be the latter, a place with lesser standards.
I guess this could point to the higher standards thing you mentioned.
I sound defensive because the thought of my walk in being contaminated by drugs and their paraphernalia gets under my skin.
Do that stuff outside like the rest of us.
Doing whip its in the walk in mid shift while leaving evidence without anyone noticing?
Sure man I guess. My decades in the industry say otherwise but idc enough to argue.
Edit: I’m not saying that mistakes aren’t made at hiring but if it’s a big enough problem the owner has to get involved it’s not just a hiring thing.
The owner seems to have had to get involved. Not the chef, not some manager. The one in charge of raises.
I guess I did care enough to argue
There’s a difference between a food service place with substance users (most) and one that hires people that can get away doing whip its mid shift in the walk in and still keep their job.
Since this is apparently the latter; I’d say it’s just an excuse.
Bestaa is correct in that they greatly diminish the propagation of radio waves. They are not perfect faraday cages but a lot of the better insulated walk ins are very difficult to get radio waves into them. Cell service, walkie talkies, WiFi, GPS.
I’ve never walked into a walk in where my service wasn’t significantly impacted.
Not sure what you’re on about.
You’re probably right and I don’t really keep up to date with magicians but I believe he literally took a bullet to his throat when his bullet catching trick failed. I’d say that’s pretty close to dying.

Maybe you’re thinking of David Blaine who almost died from his stunts multiple times?
The sad part is no Republican since Eisenhower in 1960 has had a balanced budget.
Clinton handed GW Bush a budget surplus in 2001 and is the last time we’ve had a balanced budget.
So by your definition Republicans have not been conservative in a very long time?

Edit: I initially listed LBJs 1969 surplus as the most recent Republican balanced budget due to a brain fart forgetting he was a Democratic politician.
I see what you’re saying. For what it’s worth I never used either term. That was u/originallucifer.
You have piqued my interest though. What would you consider Republicans if they aren’t conservatives? I consider them Far right conservatives. Radical conservatives if you will.
I do not disagree with what you’re saying.
My point was that this hypocrisy about the national debt predates MAGA by like 40 years. I posted an article explaining it all. Two Santa Clause Theory.
That’s a great point and a very poignant reason for why patient gaming is important.
I think I was personally focusing on the saving money part!
