You have to use the target's real name. This is why Light couldn't just kill "L", being known only by a pseudonym kept him safe.

Hoarding it until he dies is still hoarding it.

There are no ethical billionaires because the act of hoarding a billion dollars is inherently unethical. Giving only some of it to charity is not enough to justify how much more damage was done in the first place.

Can a LLM do this?

There are only a handful of communities I subscribe to, so that I can sort by /new and never miss a post.

But the fact that they're slow enough for me to never miss a post means I can't just browse. So /all is the frontpage for browsing.

Why do you say that? Lots of other old games get remakes that don't try to completely change genre. Just because a game is old doesn't mean no one would play a faithful remake, that reasoning doesn't make any sense.

Hell, SE themselves have done faithful remakes of games that are much older. Dragon Quest III HD just came out and I hear it's been selling pretty damn well.

I haven't played it, but I'm bothered by Square Enix's aversion to FF's turn-based roots. What kind of 'remake' changes genre entirely?

Eight years ago Puyo Puyo Tetris got localized. The crossover is a massive step down from past main series games, but it was the first game to get localized since Fever in 2004. I hated it as a game, but I thought that it would be a good sign for the future because its record sales would surely mean the next mainline game would get localized too.

We never got an actual mainline game. But we've been teased over and over instead.

The next year we got Puyo Puyo Champions, a budget versus mode client that's pretty much just a romhack of PPT's engine with assets recycled from the mobile spinoff. It actually fixes all of the problems I had with PPT, the online is fantastic... but it is still nothing more than a bare bones versus mode client. There is no story mode or any other singleplayer content at all, nothing like the fantastic stuff past games were packed with, which makes it a very hard sell for new players.

Then we got Puyo Puyo Tetris 2. A bugged ctrl-c ctrl-v of the first game. Literally no new content. I already hated the first one and this is even worse in every way. Even the things that Champions fixed are broken again. The fact that this horrible rehash even exists is an insult and I detest it with every fiber of my being. But the worst part is that it split the playerbase from Champions, which basically ended up killing both games in the end.

Then Puyo Puyo Puzzle Pop. The trailer looked like it was finally going to deliver on what I wanted. But they made it exclusive to Apple fucking Arcade. The game is so dead that if you try to play it online, you will simply be matched into bots. Sega knew the exclusivity deal would kill this game and they tried to fake the online to cover it up.

Eight years of disappointment after disappointment. The IP is long dead, Sega's just parading its corpse around to tease.

I already have a Miyoo Mini Plus, and I've put far more time into it than I ever did with my Deck. But it doesn't run my Steam library, I'm looking for something with SteamOS.

I don't need a Deck 2. What I need is a Deck Pocket. Gimme a similar form factor to a GBA or DS, with the ability to run all my favorite 2D indie games.

Is "someone bought a Steam Deck" a newsworthy headline?

I play Splatoon on it, never felt like there was anything wrong with the sticks.
