  • If you look at the first game from a historic perspective

    The first game basically was an open world RPG with 151 unique characters with each their strengths and weaknesses, and their own attacks, and all could be customised. Running on a handheld that previously could only play Tetris.

    It was a freaking coding masterpiece.

    But I agree the gameplay loop hasn’t upgraded the way it should. It didn’t evolve with the medium and stuck too much to its roots.

    Although the grinding in the newer games has been minimised. You can play through the games without grinding once.


  • Most of the annoying stuff that Linux users hate about Windows are because Windows has to cater to even the least technologically knowledgeable users.

    It is why Windows updates are forced, why so many files are locked behind SYSTEM user and can’t easily be circumvented, why some settings are registry or Group Policy only, why some settings are opt out, …

    Without those, their support center would blow up.

    So if Linux wants to become mainstream, it will have to cater to those users as well. And Linux will slowly turn into Windows.
