If only learning about bugs made them less gross to accidentally squish under your feet.
So the characters are still words, right?
Most likely yes. All characters in Chinese are defined jointly by the way it's written, the pronunciation, and meaning. You can't invent new characters like you would a new English word and have something that can be read out loud because there's no system for deriving pronunciation from the written character itself.
I say most likely because there are still some characters that are phonetic in that their meaning is just the sound, but these don't cover the whole spectrum of possible sounds in the language as far as I know. They also wouldn't look as nice in tattoo form since they all use the same radical.
The game trying to force that plot twist felt very jarring and pulled me out of the immersion right from the start. My guy, you have no idea how long you've been in there. Why are you asking around for a child?
They do not have sales data, so they use two different proxies: number of reviews, and number of active players.
I don't see mention of how they get the number of active players. I'm assuming it's through stats in Steam or something similar. If that's the case, then their assumption of this number being biased towards being larger than the true number would be wrong. If you choose to both pirate and buy the game, chances are good that you'll be playing the pirated version, and therefore would not get counted towards active players.
Same here. That's why I try to stock up on more than I think I'll need when things go on sale.
I would caution against using these numbers for any Calorie-in/out calculations. Even if they were 100% accurate, it still doesn't take into account anything that happens outside of that machine.
Example: There's something we call "non-exercise activity thermogenesis" (NEAT). This includes lots of things you do without thinking about it, like fidgeting, tapping your feet while sitting, or pacing around the room. In some people, NEAT can decrease significantly after exercise, which then negates much of the Calories burned.

It goes by a different name depending on the edition.
Loot box and that gambling business aside, wouldn't the FOMO argument also apply to the video game itself? If everyone around you is playing this game, you'll be pressured into purchasing it yourself as well.
You don't pay people because it's the only motivator. You pay people because you need money to survive in this world. If we don't, then the only people who can afford to spend time making mods are those who are already have their basic needs taken care of through other means.
I would like to see a world where anyone with the passion for modding can make mods.
Perfectly fine tool, but they should not be used when you're being evaluated on your ability to do arithmetics.
