    I have mentioned DSP in the past on here. Elevator pitch: if you like automation and fine tuning systems and machines and also like space and planets then it’s worth checking out. It’s Factorio… IN SPAAAAAAAAACE!!!

    I’ve have issues with Mario games in the past(looking at you Mario 64) and I also think Nintendo kind of sucks with their more questionable decisions in the industry involving old games and online but I think Odyssey really is something special. The movement is great and the platforming is very approachable. It really does a lot of things right.

      Nintendo isn’t even the worse in the business; it’s just particularly their stinginess when it comes to their past games that’s more noticable (whereas their anti-union practices go unnoticed). But of course, I don’t care about the “fandom;” I care about the workers. And the workers don’t get it so nice at Nintendo…

      But again: they aren’t the worst game company to grace “consumers.”

        Tbh I wasn’t even aware of their anti-union practices so you are correct about that going unnoticed.

        And like I have their entire catalog up to N64 downloaded for my emulators so that isn’t even really an issue. I should focus my removed and energy to their approach to unions methinks.

            Wow, that’s a bit sus. I don’t remember what it was since I was pretty chatty today but I don’t think it was anything worth censoring me over? Wasn’t expecting that from this server. Do they have a bot that does that based on a white/blacklist?

              You’re good, I think. I think that they think that you’ve already learned your lesson. You’ve done the time, so to speak. No need to drag it out.
