I am not talking about legal understanding of Japanese patent law.

But that's what the case is about.

I would argue it's not a bullshit article as I have yet to hear a single example of what legitimate (in the real sense, not related to Japanese patent law) case Nintendo has.

Well then the fact that we still don't know what the case is really about is exactly why these articles are useless. No information in there.

They'll just change the button from "Buy $59.99" to just "$59.99".

As much as I lament the fact that we can't just own things anymore, it's not like this legislation will change anything. Storefronts aren't going to drop their DRM just so they can use the word 'buy' again.

Any word on if/when there'll be a native Linux port?

Crypt of the NecroDancer.

There are three big challenge characters in the base game:

  • Aria can only use the starting dagger, no other weapons. She has only one hit point. And she dies if the player ever misses a beat.
  • Monk dies if he picks up gold. All enemies drop gold, even ones that normally wouldn't, which turns the game into a routing puzzle where you must never step on squares that an enemy previously died on.
  • Bolt plays the whole game at double tempo.

Once you have beaten these three challenge characters, plus the other six easier ones, your next task is All Chars Mode. Beat the game nine times in a row, once with each character. If you die, you must start the whole marathon over.

Beating that unlocks the tenth character, Coda. Coda combines the restrictions of Aria, Monk, and Bolt all at once.

And if you can do that, the final achievement is Lowest of the Low, which requires you to beat All Chars Mode without collecting any items.

The DLC adds a few more hard characters, and another achievement for an extended 13 Character Mode, but they aren't considered to be as hard as Coda or Lowest of the Low. A single digit number of players have stacked the challenges for Coda low% and 13chars low%.

I'd been on the microblogging side of Fedi for a while and was aware there was a federated reddit-like, but my initial impression of it was that it's a long way from getting enough of a userbase to sustain the kind of niche hobby/fandom communities I used reddit for.

But once reddit's API scandal happened, I dropped it and decided to check out the alternative. Still feel like it isn't really there yet, but eh, I'm here anyway 'cause I'm not going back.

Aren't they needed to run all the 32-bit games that are on Steam?

If what's supposed to be the core gameplay feels like an unwanted interruption, I don't think the random enounters themselves are the problem. I think the reason random encounters get a bad rap is because some games don't make basic fights feel engaging enough. But when done right, they should be the fun part!
