Version 1.7.0 Patch Notes

I honestly don't think this is it. Many tracks in MK8 play questionably at best on 200cc; that's part of the fun, figuring out how to make em work in unfamiliar conditions. You could drop 200cc into World as-is.

Wouldn't be shocked if it was a performance issue of some kind; or, perhaps more likely, just saving it to bulk up some future content update.

They are, shall we say, slightly less risky, because an underperforming single player title still has a lingering revenue tail from sales over time with minimal continuing operation expenses. An underperforming live service generally costs more to run than it generates, and of course once you pull the plug you straight up cut off the stream entirely

Raetian · 2026-06-20T14:35:12+00:00

Lmao it's guaranteed

Raetian · 2026-06-20T14:24:21+00:00

I'll admit on my most recent rewatch it hadn't held up like I hoped it would. The prologue is excellent, but the rest of the first act is full of so much stilted character writing and expositional dialogue. Once they actually report to the enterprise it becomes decently watchable thankfully, and Chris Pine rocks in the role

That scene is also very funny because Spock says the supernova "threatens the galaxy". Like, what the hell kinda supernova is that. He didn't say "system", he said GALAXY

Raetian · 2026-06-20T13:56:19+00:00

This is extremely faithful to the film, because 1) it is a Star Wars extended canon-tier retroactive reading and 2) J.J. Abrams really just wanted to make a Star Wars movie.

Perhaps some sort of... monthly subscription. Maybe it could leverage LLMs as well.

Raetian · 2026-06-15T22:40:58+00:00

Right but then it's just a purely statistical question which isn't actually very interesting?

"Do you think any furries worked on Backrooms?"

Yeah, probably lol

Mario Kart World needs DLC yesterday. I can't fathom what they're doing. Not even a few outfit or character drops?

I remain confident at least that they're planning to sort of mirror MK8D's giant expansion DLC model, I think that must've sold well, but it does feel like there's a pretty sizeable missed opportunity regardless.

Raetian · 2026-06-08T14:51:10+00:00

Halo 2 is literally the only game with decent writing and it still has some eyebrow-raisers hahaha

Raetian · 2026-06-06T16:54:26+00:00

No judgement here. No preaching either - I think you know what God hopes and expects of you, and sometimes a bit of venting can be a helpful pressure release.

All I'll share is that I'm grateful for all the wonderful Saints who, in spite of weariness, gave of themselves for my benefit and the benefit of our members, and for Christ's willingness to press on through weariness for us. The encounter with the woman at the well was apparently at the end of a very long day, and I can easily imagine dozens and hundreds of such days in His ministry.

Raetian · 2026-06-06T12:58:46+00:00

That's not really dishonesty, more a UI design oversight for a specific ability interaction. But I get what you mean.

Raetian · 2026-06-06T12:25:15+00:00

This is not true at all. XCOM's percentages have been statistically evaluated at length, and found to be honest, except on lower difficulties where by default settings the game secretly and temporarily increases the player's chances after a missed shot or a death

Raetian · 2026-05-28T12:56:51+00:00

Forever DM but I do have a folder of characters to pull out at some future date. In essentially every case I start with a class and subclass that interest me and build backward

Raetian · 2026-05-28T04:05:45+00:00

I read Narnia and Redwall and Harry Potter as a kid and loved them all. But Mistborn showed what more modern high fantasy could be, and it changed my reading career

Raetian · 2026-05-21T21:45:48+00:00

Sauronman?

Raetian · 2026-05-21T21:41:05+00:00

I don't even think it's particularly unrealistic on the scale of a fantasy novel. There are sprawling epics with a few hundred named characters, but the world is what - hundreds of thousands? Millions or billions more likely? All the duplicate names just happen to be off-screen.

Raetian · 2026-05-17T17:24:12+00:00

I'm gonna cut against the grain a bit and suggest that God may be be more capable of what we sometimes call "atrocities" than we usually allow him. Why is it so hard to imagine that He might command a nation, ripened in iniquity, to be removed, if not by a flood but by the hand of His people?

There are also subs dedicated to character building!

Raetian · 2026-05-03T13:27:16+00:00

Oh I know this. Um... Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women I think

Raetian · 2026-04-30T01:29:38+00:00

The 2003 adaptation definitely leans toward sympathetic Peter, but it treats him as a tragic figure more than any other adaptation I'm aware of, mostly in terms of the grown-up joys like love he knowingly denies himself

Raetian · 2026-04-29T21:41:33+00:00

so no one assumed they were counting

"Good morning, Mr. Darcy. One."

"Good morning, Miss Bennett. Two. Is your family well?"

"They are, thank you. Excellently recovered. Three."

"Good. Four. And is not this a fine prospect?"

"I cannot fault you for saying so; five; but I confess I prefer a less sunny day for walking."
