Up until 3 years ago I guess (thought it was more recent tbh), it would show blurry images instead of vector maps and satellite, but it looks like it's detailed now.

Previously I think Google had to comply with some protectionist policy that South Korea had in place so that people would use South Korean maps, or something like that.

It would also need to save AppData/Roaming (and AppData/Local too maybe for good measure since lots of programmers are idiots and save stuff to the wrong folder).

It's true though, most United Nations members probably do want him gone.

Just when I thought watermelon was fully reclaimed from being an anti-black thing...

It's even worse than him just saying "as long as I did my best". He's saying that the election is literally about him doing his best. I guess it's also just nonsensical mumbo jumbo that he probably didn't really think about anyways but still.

Pretty good to listen to even if you're not a movie person.

It's not that far off from the lich king angle they suggested on chapotraphouse.

Something people don't bring up enough about the game is just how amazing the controls and animations and sound effects are. Everything just feels so perfect. There are so many games that mess up basic keyboard controls (although the director's cut doesn't let you bind vehicle controls to arrow keys 🤬). It's one of those games that's just nice to play because you don't have to constantly fight the controls or wait for tons of stupid animations to play (although there is some of that).

I was playing Elden Ring recently and both the keyboard and gamepad controls suck. Simultaneously overcomplicated and too simplistic. I don't know how you can mess up game controls so badly and still get so much praise for the end result. The game has two different overcomplicated "shortcut" systems for using secondary items and they both suck and are difficult to use. I feel like I spend half my time just fighting the controls. In Death Stranding, not only is the equipment system decent (ok it actually could be a lot better still, pretty clunky), but it also has some animations and nice sound effects and animated UI elements.

I'm going to have to wait. It will presumably be PS5-only on release, and the come out on PC with the $60 price tag, so it will be like 4 years until it's at a reasonable price on PC.
