It’s what the administration demanded in order to ‘talk to’ Putin about ending the war in Ukraine.

Dual-casting 2nd tier lightning could stun-lock Alduin!

I haven’t been able to play much lately due to work, but I did manage to squeeze in some time to 100% Digseum.

I’ve loved the little genre of 'dig up buried artifacts ’ since it was a mini game back in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl, so it was nice to see again.

For some examples of games that used Vertex Shading, Super Mario Sunshine used them to fake the shadows and Homeworld used it for their fantastic skyboxes!

The last few Amber alerts I’ve gotten required an app Formerly known as Twitter account to get any additional details…

That’s what happens when you have an economic system built to reward greedy sociopaths.

Hey, that Tardigrade is doing his best, okay!

So I guess all of those unsupervised PPP loans that were forgiven were a nice feather in the Democratic hat, then, huh?

I’ve heard that done Tesla models have laminate glass on the doors, like they make the windshield, making most glass breakers ineffective.

They only would have ‘broken the law’ in this case if they tried to sell it as their own original work, which it isn’t, and that is what the prompt writer in the op is trying to do.

Before YouTube’s switch to “your going to watch 6 ads before the video starts, and you are going to like it,” schtick, I always enjoyed getting to skip the ad before they managed to tell me what the product even was.

You are correct, I missed that it was still under speculation.

Pocketpair has a pretty good case against Nintendo here, I think, because other games have used these things before.

I know it was never actually released, but Scalebound had a mechanic that would have allowed a player to tell their dragon to perform a task, albeit, usually destructively.

Guild Wars 2 Added a mechanic years ago that let players traverse water and land by automatically a switching between mounts.

‘Releasing’ a creature into a 3d environment has been done by every minion-mancer class in an MMO since the dawn of the genre.

Looks like it’s over the game mechanics of ‘releasing a creature into a 3d environment and having it perform a contextual task’ & ‘having a rideable mount switch to a different rideable mount depending on terrain’

I don’t think either of these would work in the US, because you can’t protect game mechanics here, but I’m not sure about Japan’s take.

Edit: I missed that this was still under speculation at the time of the post:

Based on searching of Japanese patent databases, initial speculation is that these may include (but is not necessarily limited to) patents relating to game mechanics and gameplay features from Pokémon: Legends Arceus, and may include patents such as one for throwing and using Poké Balls in a 3D space (JP,2023-092953,A); and one for automatically switching between ride Pokémon as a player transitions between different terrain, such as between air and the ground (JP,2023-092954,A).

It doesn’t need to be an animated visual to be distracting or NSFW…

That’s a lot of faith that the ads would be SFW, let alone not distracting.

Not only that, but then they go and blow half of their budget on adverts instead of R&D.

I haven’t played the third one co-op yet, unfortunately so I can only assume that it holds up like the second one does.
