Pretty much yes. It has channels so there are news channels, personal channels etc. At some point when I discovered Twitter for myself I hated it so much for not being able to simply read subscribed accounts just like telegram does it. It's too convenient as a feeds app.

My biggest gripe with it is about electron. I refuse to keep it running on my PC. Even the damned Whatsapp converted to something better.

Seems like you have to keep something running for it to work. Some obscure service relied on it as a support channel and last thing I remember is that matrix server stopped working. Though it would help so much if it would be p2p.

Still, most of bad stuff happening to people are not because something was hacked, but because someone leaked something. One person in a group chat would be enough.

Yeah.

Nah, the ability works during the broadcast, without such delays.

Ability to teleport any words I want into the mind of someone who is broadcasting or streaming anything over internet or radio or tv, that I currently watch or listen, as long as the broadcast is going on. For them it would be like hearing me as if I was in the same room. They won't know anything about me other than realize I'm one of their listeners or viewers. It works only for one person at a time - the streamer/broadcaster or one of them. They can choose to tell other listeners what they heard, or not.

Actually, 8.

No. Actually, you don't even control which fingers you lose. You lose one big finger once and you can't snap with that hand anymore.

Wait till you realize this project's purpose IS to force AI to waste even more resources.

Yeah. Prisoners, on the other hand...

another player to try an compete with Steam

Here is the mistake. It does not trying to compete. It only tries to catch as many fish in its bucket as possible, while leveraging (burning) Fortnite money.

It's a wasted effort, and it will never come close to Steam like this. It may even die along with Fortnite, or degrade further.

That implies one person is observing 3 other people from the above (or flying over), which is not exactly trivial.

Sharing a document in Google docs means sharing a link and in many cases with read-only access.

They didn't start the fight. They were sued. If you think "picking a fight with Nintendo" is something you can do any time, and on your own volition, you must be missing something.

Getting popular to that point was not in their plans. You can't judge their success.

And yes it can legally exist. See other creature collector games (that are just not that popular yet).

That sounds like a "look someone managed to pull that off so it's definitely possible" argument. In other words "you can enter the collectable creatures scene by spending that amount of effort". And it shouldn't be that way. The price in effort shouldn't be that high.

Actually, it should be the customers who decide if your product is worth the effort of playing it. There are a lot of rehashed games in various genres (e.g. horrors, walking simulators) and wee see no issue with them even though they are using exactly same mechanics, or sometimes even assets. What matters is users' reception. If users think your product is worth it - it means you spent enough effort already. If your product would be a low effort creation users wouldn't spend money on it in the first place.

I'm sure if Cassette Beasts could accumulate that kind of playerbase and profits, Nintendo would've sued them too.

I just assume that as long as everyone is fine with derivations produced by AI (text, pics, music), all derivations that don't look exactly like original Pokemon are fine (also real people put some effort into those). Palworld compared to Pokemon is a much better product than, say, Fifa XX compared to Fifa XX-1. Also Pokemon series is notorious for useless editions of the same games masked as separate products - that level of rehashing feels much more illegal to me.

Cool as hell but its weight is 0.7 kg.

Yes. I created the document in Google docs, and you opened it in Word.

Easy. On EGS most games don't sell at all, so 0% of $0 is still $0. They get most of their money from Fortnite.
