I've played Civ 6 for countless of hours, and I gotta say Unciv managed to hook me up to my phone. It can be played on a potato and yet the gameplay is on par or even better than Civ 6.

Thanks to the devs for it!

I understand your point. Though honestly DRM-locked games should have some kind of compensation, like lower price. Games like Zelda or Mario don't usually have such treatment, whose digital version always has full price.

I always wonder who buys a Mario or Zelda game digitally at full price.

Do you think so? First, it seems a cumbersome feature. Second, you are NOT the owner of the game since you do not even have the possibility to sell the game, should you wish to.

I can see the advantage over regular DRM games, where you can lend the games. But depending on the price range nothing beats having the physical cartridge.

And that's why I love GOG. It would have been interesting if you can completely transfer the ownership of the virtual card, but I don't think Nintendo will permit such thing.

This means that it is not natively supported, is it?

I'm a big fan of gen 2 so I mostly played romhacks based on that. To me the GBC offers a better experience than GBA because of the chiptunes compared to sound samples. Some personal recommendations:

  • Pokémon Polished Crystal: it's pokémon crystal, but natures and abilities have been added, new movesets making lot of pokémon viable and interesting, and overall it's an enhanced experience from the original game. I fully recommend it
  • Pokémon Prism: another romhack of crystal, but it's a complete overhaul of the game where action doesn't happen on Johto and Kanto, but on completely new regions Naljo and Rijon. It's an incredible experience, and the soundtrack is top notch (the gym leader music is amazing)
 

Right now if I write a comment on a community and receive a response I'm getting notified about it via push notification and even email if I set such option in my profile. However for certain subs I might be interested in getting notifications every time someone adds a new thread on it.

Is there any way as of now to achieve that?

Try LinkedIn, that's where I got most of my jobs.

Seconding this. Yu-Gi-Oh abridged is super fun.

DURO, MONSTA CARDO!

Definitely a necessary move to avoid fake news. I wonder thought the applicability of this and how are they going to detect unlabeled AI videos and fine them.

Ori is such a beautiful experience, and a worthy Metroidvania. The will of the wisps dramatically improves gameplay over the first one, and the theme can catter to a different type of player (I love hollow knight, but my wife preferred Ori instead).
