I had the same thought initially, and unfortunately it wasn’t just GTA. However, IMHO Diablo II Resurrected was an amazing exception, and I’m sure there are others. Plus, the OP’s question was probably about an ideal case and they wanted to know what people have been missing from the past.

Realistically, I wouldn’t expect a decent comeback of Guitar Hero 3 for example, but it sucks that it doesn’t really work on Win10/11 anymore, and while Clone Hero exists, it doesn’t have the same “story” mode as GH3 had, with characters, milestones and such. Hell, you can’t even get “booed out”.

Too bad that as you mentioned, even if there was demand, a random big company would just buy the rights, do some lazy upscale and sell it like it was gourmet shit.

Honestly, if it was me reading about the pixie dust, I would just find it hilarious and probably not mention it, since I got the joke.

I can’t remember the last one, so I’ll tell the one before.

I think I had activated some really primal stuff. You know how so many animals cuddle in a bunch, often in entire groups, to keep warm and sleep together? Yeah, I was basically just lying down, with members from my family, on top of my father’s rhythmically raising-falling belly, right on the edge of falling asleep (within my dream).

It was heaven. The most peaceful I have felt in a looong time. Despite us humans being boney animals (by default), it just felt so soft and comfy. I think it must have been some leftover from ancient hominid (?) life.

Interesting, I just meant that cockroaches are nearly indestructible and will survive humanity. But I do agree with your first sentence.

Let me introduce you the crown of creation: the cockroach.

And then there are the (multiplayer) gamers. It’s great that I can play SO many more offline/single player games than I used to on Linux, but I can’t help if the ones I like to play are all unsupported (and probably will be for a looong time).

I would have switched to Linux about 20 years ago if it was possible, but unfortunately, developing exploit free, stable anti cheats for competitive multiplayers on multiple OS’s is a nightmare, and I get why most developers resort to picking the currently most widely used one. It’s just a shame because otherwise I prefer Linux over Windows in many aspects.

Yeah, they can rip my avocados out from my cold dead hands.

I can’t really put it into words but I just randomly (?) have this thought of “certainly not” and have the feeling of “this has got to be a bad dream… Oh wait, it’s actually a bad dream, why am I still here at all”.

I just don’t always manage to.

Nah, you just have to photoshop X eyes and a stuck out tongue on every living thing. They didn’t say anything about dead things.

Yeah but I would easily beat him in hurdles.

The Haunting (the song) has some rather pretty bits, too.

Oh. I was still trying to fit those words to the rhythm of this.

At one point the same activity started ruining /r/animalsbeinggeniuses. Either utterly dumb users, or, more likely, botted accounts started spamming the sub with random animal photos/videos. Then, when I dared to point out that a sitting cat/dog isn’t just genius for simply being cute or by being able to jump far, I often got downvoted because bUt It’S sO cUtE, hOw CaN yOu HaTe CuTe AnImAlS.

I stopped following Reddit content more than a year ago, but I’m not too surprised to see that the same is happening everywhere else.

The Tesla truck, driven by an employee, was headed to the company’s battery factory in Sparks, Nevada, […]

WHERE else?

• Mom! Look! This frog says my name every time I press down on its belly!
• Leave the poor animal alone, Björk!

This is how I abbreviate avocado smash & eggs. Mostly with two g’s, but still.
