In this day and age you don’t need to own the game to be a able to experience the story and graphics and nearly everything else perfectly legal. Thousands of people are playing it on Twitch and YouTube and other streaming platforms.

It is a good game, from the four ratings I would align myself with the 77% from Steam.
My biggest critic so far, 12h in, would be that the language they use and the way they speak is way to modern for a fantasy game for my liking. It often makes it a bit hard to immerse into the game for me when they use 21th century words or concepts or mannerisms.
Oh the app completely doesn’t load on a unlocked bootloader, this is on a locked bootloader system where I just activated Developer Mode to show the message of the app. I know that I can deactivate it again 😜
Unfortunately I don’t have a system with unlocked bootloader right now to show the message that comes up then.
Unfortunately I have to use the app to be a able to take card payments for my business.
It is mostly payment options that are affected from it, for example the Zettle App by PayPal
Trust me, it is not fine.
I have at least one app that disables major functions when Developer Mode is active in my stock android, even with a locked bootloader and without root.
That is already the case on Android phones with unlocked bootloader. Banking apps (in my experience) will either completely not work or only with limited functionality when run on a unlocked phone.
When I got into the company I was allowed to use Linux. But a few years ago the company was bought and merged with a much bigger company and the new IT policy made Windows mandatory.
Just having a copy of a Game doesn’t help at all with preservation when the games have DRM. Preservation is more then just safe storage, preservation also means to ensure that the content can be used by future generations. This is in general not really an issue with physical media like sculptures, books or paintings. But with digital media this often means that the data has to be copied to other media, convert the data to other formats, or write/use emulators or even rebuild the engine of the game to ensure that a piece of software written now can still be used by whatever hardware/software architecture is in use 20, 50 or 100 years from now. And such preservation has to start when the data is fresh and new, not in 50 or 100 years.
All fair and good arguments, so no flamewar today. Sorry 😜
Just as an addition, nothing against ZFS it is a great FS, but BTRFS can this too.
Never heard of this, but it sounds very interesting. Thanks for mentioning it.

The game is very much playable, I have sunk 200+ hours into it and still have very much fun playing it. Not every game has to be for everyone.
Well yes, yes they did. It is called Canoe and is for example running inside the SNES Classic Mini. And that is not the only emulator they wrote. Writing an emulator is not some obscure magic, and it is way easier if you own all the schematics and other Information used to build the original hardware.
It is not really IRL when you put tags and graffiti on photos, even when it is combined with AR.
It is so sad that they killed Ingress with their shitty new scanner app. It is out for years now and is still running like crap on my 2 year old upper class android phone. I really loved that game
Yes, and the German city of Cologne is the same since it was built by the romans. Because when the name and the foundations are the same over the ages then everything is the same, no major changes are possible ever!
Not better, but they are different kinds or RPG. Both are open world action RPGs yes, but CDPR makes highly story driven games when Bethesda makes sandbox style RPGs where the story is only framing all the mechanics and possibilities. In Bethesda games I can roleplay my characters, in The Witcher I can roleplay as Gerald.
I had both but the teen drama sounding parts were less then the general but I have not yet played much further so not sure how it gets later on the game.
