Real service animals are well trained enough to not misbehave or damage property.
Unfortunately many people who don't have trained service animals claim they do.
In the US at least you are allowed to ask what task the dog is trained to perform (but not what illness/disability the person has), and can have the dog removed if it is out of control or not housebroken, but service cannot be denied due to allergies.
Personally I'd love a visual remaster for Brave Fencer Musashi.
I did originally create an account there, but it was when they announced it. I'd reccomend reaching out to Multiplicity on the PoE discord as he runs the PoE lemmy server.
You should be able to post directly there using your current account though, it should be federated with most lemmy instances and kbin.
Outer Worlds is currently in the July Humble Choice if anyone wants to pay $12 for it and some other games.
Depends on the game.
Some DLC are equivalent to the expansion packs of the 90s where they add new content, new areas, and let you continue the story.
Others are just small cosmetics, or single new classes.
I grew up with expansion packs being the norm.
There are very few memorable games from my childhood that didn't have expansion packs, and I think for many games DLC is the modern version of an expansion pack. Although DLC varies quite a bit.
Obviously there are good pieces of DLC and bad ones, and it can be hard to tell what's what. Day 1 DLC can be a big offender, but I do remember the days where games had content in them that wasn't finished.
Baldur's Gate 2 has a mod called Unfinished Business that modders finished up the content, and there is the famous Ascension mod that rewrites much of the ending of the expansion, the funny thing with this mod is that the creator was David Gaider of Bioware, one of the writers and directors of Baldur's Gate 2, due to his feelings that the expansion was unfinished he released a mod to fix his problems with it.
I don't see either thing happening in today's gaming world, that unfinished content can be finished before the game is released and then sold as DLC, being unhappy with the game's ending can be patched later on, or again sold as DLC.
My annoyances with DLC are typically pre-order bonuses, especially if they're exclusive to stores. And if they're selling very important story based content on Day 1.
I don't mind additional story content coming later, because that seems so similar to the expansion packs of years ago.
A good comparison is Mass Effect. Lair of the Shadowbroker I think is a fine DLC, it's not largely important to the plot of ME2, but it's a good side quest that is important to the character and was released about 9 months after the launch of the game.
But From Ashes in ME3 I think was terrible, it was Day 1 DLC and featured an extremely important and lore significant character locked behind an additional paywall.
That said, I do have some annoyances with DLC:
An abundance of cosmetic DLC in single player games is whatever for me, but if the game doesn't have a way to unlock other cosmetics in game, it feels like a cheap cash grab.
Pre-order DLC especially if it's store-exclusive and ESPECIALLY if it's not available for purchase later- I would like the ability to have a complete game.
Having to wait for all DLC to come out before I can feel like I'm playing a complete game. Although this isn't always new, as things like the D2 Battle Chest, Neverwinter Nights Platinum Edition or Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete Edition existed when I was a kid as well, where we were buying individual expansion packs as they released or we waited for the special editions.
Given CDPRs track record with the deep Witcher series discounts I'd expect a complete 2077 edition for cheap in a few years.
I don't think reddit or any social media company gains copyright or ownership of what you post
There's no guarantee that what's being posted even belongs to or is the original creation of the poster.
It's worth pausing if there are no games you want, they'll often (maybe always?) offer a discount on the next month if you do.
Yup, I've been eyeing Outer Worlds for a while. Patient gaming pays off again.
I enjoyed it on my first playthrough, but it got really old on my second.
It's pretty simple, and your ability to play other decks is locked behind progression, leaving you largely to play Northern Realms and Nilfgard spy decks for a large portion of the game.
And we thought bots and karma farming were bad before.
