If you like Hollow Knight and Sekiro, Nine Sols is another game I’d recommend. Kind of a combination of the two, the 2D traversal and game mechanics of HK, with the unforgiving parry heavy combat of Sekiro.

“It has been our territory since Ancient Times™”

Should I also get the Below Zero bundle?

Yup. When the game ends, you will see a list of player IDs you’ve met during your journey

Not the same studio, but same director and music composer

It’s pretty fun so far, and rage inducing lol. You can see the inspirations drawn from Hollow Knight, Ori and such. Though, I find it way harder and unforgiving than Hollow Knight. The game really wants you to parry every single enemy attack, and will punish you quite hard you if you fail to do so. Just holding the block button does not work, it will block one attack but not the next. You need to press block (or ideally parry with the right timing) on every attack to avoid getting stun locked, which means fighting multiple enemies could be quite challenging, and enemies with quick attack combos are guaranteed to be a pain in the ass.

In Taiwan we just call it 總統府, which translates to “the presidential office”. It’s true that it is a Japanese-colonial-era building, but I only ever heard it referenced in historical context, like in a tour or a textbook.
Fun fact: there are also some Spanish and Dutch buildings remaining in Taiwan. They were the first official colonizers before the Ming-dynasty took over.

China is deseparately trying to flip off every neighboring country, aren’t they?

But apparently not for the game creators :(

Tax breaks. Woohoo!

How this shitty legal manoeuvre is even allowed is so infuriating.

Foreign interference Anyone who opposes us

I bought Zelda TotK when it came out, now I’m finally playing it. Just finished the first boss fight, I really like that not only do shrines train you to be creative with the Ultrahand, side quests like sign support and korok escort quests also reenforce it with interesting tools. Towers being launch towers which ties in with the verticality of the game is also a nice touch.

Still don’t know how to deal with lynels, three headed dragons, and the gloom hands thing though.

Quick thinking would easily conclude that admitting lost would also break the status quo. A treaty would have to be signed, and since the PRC would never give up trying to gain new territory, what good will it do to Taiwanese people who have no desire to join the PRC?

Petty is when your girlfriend keeps your favorite shirt after the breakup.

And get your facts straight. ROC came before PRC. PRC never ruled over Taiwan once. The “girlfriend” in your story here is PRC, not Taiwan.

Hey, how about you tell PRC to fuck off and not threaten war? You realize it’s been 75 years. That’s 2+ generations already, Taiwanese people no longer identify themselves as Chinese, and the ruling party now is not the same dictatorship that wants to reunite with China. No one wants war, but Taiwan does not want another dictatorship either.

For a flying sim, you probably want “weather” data, not “climate” data. Like on this particular date, time, and location, data for the wind direction, rain, cloud formation, temperature, etc. That data would be humongous.

Not totally true. There’s a reason why TSMC chips have better yields and efficiency than Samsung chips, even though they are on the same nodes and also use ASML machines. AFAIK, you still need to develop a know-how to build good chips, and ASML’s tools enable that, true, but they don’t know the rest of the process to make that happen. Neither does Apple nor other chip designers, and that’s worth value.

It’s a very valuable spot geographically in the island chain too. With Taiwan under their control, they basically oversee all cargo ships coming through the South China Sea to East Asian countries like Japan and Korea, not to mention the additional economic area and military potential.

Really curious what’s CCP’s motivation/goal here?

Any game from Supergiant I would recommend in a heart beat.

I’m still quite curious what caused the issue for Instagram on the iPhone 15 to use more resources than the previous phones. They’re not that different I think.
