  • Well, that is a very open ended question.

    My thoughts on emulation is that it is an absolute necessity in order to preserve the history of gaming. However, it will also probably always be a grey area regarding copyright. Especially with emulation of current gen I find it not okay, since the original creator still earns money with it. But if a game or console is not sold anymore? Nobody loses money from me using an emulator to play Chrono Trigger with save states and increased game speed to make the farming and boss fights easier.

  • Arrested is such a weak word here. Somebody is arrested for breaking a law. Those were just rounded up and imprisoned for being Palestinian. And if that is a crime, that in itself tells more about the jailer than the jailee.

  • It's not automatic everywhere! I'm pretty sure deciding where the money from the budget goes is the biggest decision the current government can take for shaping the country. But in other countries this is mostly passed by Parliament, where the government has the majority by design most of the time (that's why they are the ruling party or coalition). On the USA, the Congress and Senate thing is responsible for the deadlock.

  • Socialism

    Jump
  • Soviet Russia never really said it was communist, neither did the other east European states. They said they had socialism and communism was the goal to reach in the future.

  • Yeah, that is the complete opposite of what the other comment said.

    What they said:

    • There are non-religious people who celebrate holidays with religious background
    • there are other religious holidays who are only celebrated by the really religious

    You provided a good example of the first case, that even non practicing Jews celebrate some holidays, same as many book Christians are celebrating Christmas.

  • Thanks for sharing this video. While it is a bit long and has some duplication about some games in the introduction part and the specific game parts, it was nonetheless interesting to hear about this in depth talk about the romance genre.

    I think the biggest problem romance in games will always have is the inherent contradiction between game mechanics and the realistic development of a relationship. It will be between the two extremes of being a pre written story or being a "relationship vending machine". But maybe somebody will find a way to combine both in the future. I never would have guessed that I found it fascinating to play a autocratic countries border guard and then along come Papers, Please, so who knows.

    I don't really understand the downvotes, is it due to the length or directly proving the point of the video that too many people are scared of romance in games?
