You’d still need ridiculous amounts of energy to simulate even a small fraction of our world, on the level of thousands of galaxies’ energy per second. Dr. Blitz is a literal astrophysicist who addresses this matter: www.youtube.com/@blitzphd

We cannot be living in a simulation because the amount of energy to simulate and calculate all the possible atoms, quarks, and other particles and all their simultaneous interactions every fraction of a millisecond would far exceed an exponent of zillions upon zillions of all the possible energy that could ever exist. We wouldn’t even begin to be able to comprehend anything.
“Well… the forerunners’ physics operate differently, duh!”
Uh… if you were to believe that delusion, then I wouldn’t know what to tell you; then you could just rig whatever answer you want to anything. And even if that were true, then the “real” world must be so vastly different from anything we could possibly connect with or perceive that it wouldn’t be relatable anyway and would therefore be worthless or just academic to think about. I guess you don’t want to hear it but this is unfortunately our actual life and that guy was just weird. Ask him if you can buy any potions from him next time or something.

I hope they eventually crumple from hiring stupider and stupider team leads, then.

Dang. I wish I could enjoy replaying it, but nothing will capture the magic of the first time. I always love watching others experience my enjoyed titles live for their first time, though.

I didn’t realize that it wasn’t digital all this time. Digital is the only way to play such titles, haha.

Oh, Sans is smarter than that; he’d say how you can’t refund because you’ve already played for way more than 2 hours to get this far. If anything, he would mention your actual playtime statistic in his dialogue.

Yeah, until they start choking you to death due to falsely thinking that that’s what you want. Sounds like a fun temptation but it’d still be ultimately introducing more IoT into my home, which is a “no” from me, dawg, due to hacking risk.

Oops, I misunderstood and agree; I didn’t realize a second launcher was the issue here. That is messed up.

I am aware of this list. Try comparing it to itch.io and GOG, though.

Thanks for the context, which led me to downvote this post. Come on, guys; not all complaints are valid.

Mandatory launchers can fuck right off.

Although l think it sacrifices achievement progress, you may consider Heroic Games Launcher instead, which is open-source.

That’s assuming you can reach even a fraction of that amount to begin with… Musicians and athletes don’t hit that amount because the hurdles towards expertise are scary to them.
