You are absolutely correct, but the article OP posted was for a specific Populous game, the 3rd one, which came out in 1998 lol. They just didn’t put “: The Beginning” in the title.
Edit: Also the first release was 89 not 88.

Only one I’d give Paradox any money for at this point! lmao
Been a bit but I think the one I was more hyped for was Paralives (which you’d expect to be the one from paradox given the name lmao)
Paradox’s Sim game was the least I was looking forward to of the upcoming Sims spiritual successors, ya know, cause it’s Paradox…
…but still, fuck.
As someone who gets comics from TG up and including last night: Shit.
Edit:
This was posted to their telegram channel according to reddit’s piracy sub, so everything is fine.
Thanks for all you do, bud!
What people need to learn is that “indie game” it’s not a synonym for good, or worthwhile. I’ve pirated tons of indie games which wereamazing and I ended up buying.
I’ve also pirated tons of indie games that I wouldn’t have spent a damn dollar on because they absolutely sucked.
Pirate indie games all damn day. Pay for the ones that aren’t flame-broiled ass. Don’t reward people who asset flip or put 5 mins of effort into something just because the game is listed under a category called ‘indie’ lmao
I hope they also improve the ability to see your damned hashtags cause when I used Pixelfed I followed a few dozen hashtags of interest and I only ever found one spot on your account which let you see ‘the list’ of hashtags you followed and it only ever showed me a random selection of 3-4 of the dozens I followed. Closed my account a few days later lol.
Loved him some tiddy.
Annas Archive, DC++ hubs, pdfmagazines.club (site is nsfw as playboy and similar will be on the front page guaranteed), and beyond that just via dumps on torrent trackers like 1337x.
Partially off-topic but I rarely get the chance to tell this story:
My old man was a porn hound. Talking wall of VHS tapes. You know what I’m picturing, that was his living room. Had 4 VCR’s hooked up at once with several switches, a few switchboards for colour and audio correction, whole 9 yards. Lost an eye when I was a kid so always wanted to make his viewing ‘optimal’ for him.
What he’d end up doing was go down to the local Variety Video, rent 5-6 tapes, come home, and dub em over the weekend. Then once dubbed, remove the label with some heat, open the cassettes (the og and the copy he made) and swap the reels so he’d have the original one (which would be ever-so-slightly better quality than the copy he made, again, cause of his sight). Then seal em up, return the copy and no one was the wiser. Did this for close to 15 years before the place closed down (for unrelated reasons) and had his huge wall of big titty wank material for years to come lmao.
Sony: The reason I stopped at the PS4 lol.
The tl;dr seems to be:
After such and such date (end of the month I think? Sometime soon either way) you will be required to sign in with a PSN account in order to play. Some say this was not advertised when the game launched, some say it was (I believe people found wayback machine captures that say it was but I may be wrong. Some people don’t want this, some countries aren’t allowed to sign up for PSN accounts outright (and if they have Helldivers 2 they would then be losing access technically).
Sony offered up the usual explanation of security and whatnot, which most aren’t accepting that as Valve/VAC do the job of security, leading most to assume it’s a way for Sony to gather more info and data from customers which they can then sell or otherwise market somehow.
Overall souring people on the whole situation of a bit of a bait-and-switch.
Might have been a few days off with the date, it’s been a minute lol.
This lol.
I’m fucking 40, anyone I grew up with who made my life miserable are people who I have had no exposure to or communications with since I graduated high school June 16th 2002. Anyone since then who makes my life miserable for more than a few minutes gets told to fuck off on the spot lol.
thetvapp dot to, along with most other sports and a bunch of tv channels.
Literally had a self-professed white nationalist on the mod team and as far as I know still does.
