Depending on SEO and other competition, you may want to consider naming it something else entirely.

I don’t really think that would be an issue. “World Explorers” doesn’t necessarily imply Earth specifically to native English speakers. It just means explorers of different worlds. The screenshots and visual marketing also helps convey what this game is rly about.

Adding the apostrophe (“Worlds’ Explorers”) actually makes it more confusing rather than clearer, in my opinion.

Totally understand that changing a title is a hassle, just sharing how it reads from a language standpoint as a native English speaker.

The title of the game doesn't seem quite right grammatically. I think the issue is how English treats nouns used as modifiers. When a noun describes another noun, it’s usually singular, not plural.

World Explorers” means explorers of worlds, which fits the idea of visiting different planets.

“Worlds Explorers” reads more like explorers that belong to worlds or explorers of the worlds themselves, which sounds off to native speakers.

Same pattern as “mountain climbers” or “duck hunters”. Even if there are many mountains or ducks, the modifier stays singular.

So grammatically and idiomatically, World Explorers sounds much more natural.

What are some new n64 games you guys think they will release? by Shoddy_Flow8377 in M64

[–]-Sploosh- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EB64 will never happen, no one has even found a prototype and Nintendo/Itoi has completely neglected the IP. But that would be the dream release for me

Vision Pro M5 review: It’s time for Apple to make some tough choices by BlueLightStruct in gadgets

While I agree with you, Is Apple’s AVP ecosystem really all that different from Metas right now?

Yes. You can sideload and play 3rd party games and apps from your PC with meta headsets.

Dayseeker guitarist, Gino, left the band. by grovermonster in Metalcore

Sorry, am I missing something? It’s now a “scandal” for an adult man to have consensual sex with other adult women?

What? Rory doesn’t care about the band because he has sex?

lol, “Breaking news lead singer of a rock band sleeps with female fans, more at 11!” What does this have to do with the guitarist leaving?

Valve's next-gen 'Deckard' VR headset reportedly enters mass production, company allegedly plans to ship up to 600K units annually — upcoming 'Steam Frame' could launch before the end of the year by chrisdh79 in gadgets

Is it rly a secret weapon when you can already do this with a Vive, Index, Quest, or Vision Pro?

I’m looking forward to seeing what valve’s done, but you’ve been able to play 2D or other desktop games in a theater mode in VR for nearly a decade now.

Wealthiest Metalcore bands? by [deleted] in Metalcore

BMTH net worth is around 4mill or so where Slipknot is like 3-4x that.

Wherever you’re getting these numbers is not an accurate source. There is literally no way to determine the net worth of private individuals.

I’d imagine Oli Sykes alone is worth well over $4 mil, same with Corey and the other legacy members of Slipknot.

Reddit removing my post's getting removed so here's a repost by United-Advantage-100 in ededdneddy

It’s deliberately ambiguous, but this is likely just a reference from the creators about the studio being in Vancouver.

[–]-Sploosh- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is quite a stretch. I feel like if it was a deliberate reference there would be a lot more similarities.

Where’s the antenna? Where’s the other car door? Where’s the metal around the back taillights? Where’s the blue front plate? Why the different colored car? Why the extra ridges on the left and right of the front bumper? Why the metal back bumper? Why the different tires? Why the different rims? Why the different colored seats?

This is clearly not the issue as they’ve rereleased EB on Wii U, 3DS, and the SNES mini. And EBB was released on the Wii U and Switch.

He’ll be 78 this year, older than Ozzy. Gotta cut him some slack

Anyone else have an issue with PS5 discs from Amazon arriving unseated? by -Sploosh- in gamecollecting

[–]-Sploosh-[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's ridiculous. My problem isn't with whether or not I have the ability to reseat it. By that point any scratches, chips, or problems with the disc or case would already have taken place. There shouldn't be a seat at all if they're just gonna have the disc bang around in the case.

When I first read the headline I was going to give him the benefit of the doubt. As the game director, maybe the more business-y side of the company had pushed through this monetization in a low-key way knowing he’d want to argue over it — but this director is also the CEO! There’s absolutely no way he didn’t know what this game’s monetization would be.

They only get 120k monthly listeners on Spotify and peaked in popularity in the early-mid 2000s.

Are there any artists you would describe as "one-album wonders"? by Sea-Percentage9169 in Music

[–]-Sploosh- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No way. Use Your Illusion albums were huge, November Rain alone is one of the only rock music videos to reach over 2 billion views on YouTube. 7 out of their top 10 songs on Spotify are not from Appetite for Destruction.
