It looks like unreal engine asset store but that’s beside the real problem which is that ocarina is a bad game

What are the policy differences between the dpfp and whatever the rump cdp is called today? Just foreign policy (and nuclear)? In that case what difference between the ldp and the dpfp?

The only people who ever actually grew the video game audience was nintendo and valve, and both are busy with other things at the moment

The market for non-mobile video games has not grown in 20 years despite every forum poster and game journalist on the planet being a fountain of executive notes and armchair business advice. That’s the single problem

There was no explosive growth. Outside mobile there’s been no growth in 20 years. That’s the entire problem

I only very recently played the ps1 classics like resident evil and mgs and the thing that stuck out to me most was the adventure game logic, which completely disappeared from commercial games basically immediately after that

Whole of east asia would be more latin american in that states would have been much less able or willing to discipline capital absent the cold war. Factor endowments would mean manufacturing would still be core to economies but probably would not have climbed the value chain. Philippinization

It is basically a console of the ps2 era, which I think should include the n64, dreamcast, ps2/gamecube/xbox, and wii. Not the ps1. That era is very clearly retro in aesthetic and design sensibilities, and the period from 2006-2012 or so was a transition period

diefenbackerj.bsky.social @diefenbackerj.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
Wii games didn’t have dual analog controls, which is one of the biggest changes since 2006, and it couldn’t support open world game design for the most part
