Haven't played it but in some google searches on it, the added cutscenes retcon away 2 deaths that normally happen in the plot.

https://hardcoregamer.com/biggest-changes-in-yakuza-0-directors-cut/

doing some searching, it sounds like it's 90% improvements (IE fixes, improved framerate, returning some music that was removed from the US version), additional cutscenes

There apparently were also some story changes... which can be disagreed upon... mainly all deaths were removed.

Though ignoring the differences in the versions, I think the main objections are the price. IE after the sale is discontinued, the long term is the $20 version is no longer for sale, with the note to buy the $50 version instead. (IE right now it's buy the cheap version on sale, and get it upgraded to the expensive one... but say someone decides to get the game in january, the only option will be the $50 game.

I mean if it's based on the time of creation it would to me that's the idea of it though. IE the troll accounts that have spent 5 years building up a following, the only way to salvage them if their creation location was bad, is to delete them and start a new one from a VPN in the country they are supposed to be from. At which point smart people are going to note "the wave of accounts made in 2025-2026 and note that timing".

Course unless Elon works to change that rule, not tie in the original country etc, or make a blue checkmark feature "anti-doxing" to protect your private information like country.

I mean it's so obvious... is anyone else unaware that raising the goal for quantity is how you lower quality. Organized criminals are... well organized and hard to find. Finding one big cartel leader is considerably harder than scooping up 100 people showing up for their scheduled appointment with immigration court.

I mean does he have a chance, if I'm not mistaken didn't he win against a pedophile by the skin of his teeth. and now at this rate I'm wondering if pedophilia is less unpopular than it was back then.

Well I mean in this case, her lack of competency and credentials were a per-requisite. No one with skills in law would have even considered attempting these cases.

Reminds me the most of when discussing corporal punishment with a friend of mine with regards to raising kids. He was up and down talking about how his dad had to beat the crap out of him to keep him in line, and of course with a few examples, I'd follow up with "did you do that again?", "well yeah, I got beat for doing that over and over".

and of course that's ignoring the bigger part. Even giving the "punishment deters"... really it only goes in 2 forms.

It's often ineffective because it hasn't hit yet. AKA you haven't got punished, therefore you know the punishment doesn't apply to you.

Or you have been punished, and well you can handle it again.

Course death penalty is a one time issue obviously. But obviously also has the follow up where, it can be even worse because people are more hesetant to charge in the less obviously wrong scenerios. IE anyone with half a heart or a concern to protect kids will throw the book at a 50 year old diddling a 10 year old.

Laws generally have exceptions when a 19 year old has sex with a 17 year old. Somewhere out there though is greyer areas where most people would say it's wrong, but it's on the fence.

See normally I'd say I'd rather the president be focused on current affairs, national politics etc... rather than wasting his time critiquing movies... but with trump... it's almost a good thing to have him distracted from fucking things up worse.

But yeah in true trump fashion... You know what this world needs right now, more action movies with action stars in their golden years... After all that's what everyone's complaining about hollywood right now right? Not enough reboots and sequals and too many up and coming big actors.

Hulamania is getting

I hate hulk hogan, I hate AI videos....

but now I'm feeling a strong desire to see hulk hogan talking tough about his insane hula hoop skills.

Only problem is when dealing with things like, what happens when a cop demands to bury all videos of his police brutality scandal etc... Bottom line 90% of time when the pressure hits enough, the words don't do it justice. Especially when the cops release the report using past exonorative tense etc... to describe things in way that downplay and obfuscate what happened.

I've long since switched to foundry, but I used to use
