concidering the lack of staff in these stores, I think safety is the least of their problems, I'm amazed that they can make a profit, no surveillance whatsoever, no security, I've seen people walk in, grab a handful of items and just walk out cause they know they won't be stopped and that the store lacks the staffing for anyone to identify anything

so many good games, wow

Part of me feels like they're only saying this to try to prevent a fan-made style of the game from sprouting up due to lack of development on the IP, that being said I haven't followed one of their games since PS1, so not sure how well their fanbase is

Not the person you replied to, but I do think it's a fair comparison, most are operated by a buy product sell product to customer system. Take retail for example there is nothing in a restaurant environment that retail isn't having to do at store level, because it's still buying products with the intent to supply it to the customer base. You still have to deal with the same mechanics still have to deal with waste you still have to deal with pricing for the consumer you still have to deal with your wages, so my question is how is the restaurant industry not the same.

This of course is also not including the majority of the other countries that do not use our system and seem to be handling it just fine.

As a consumer I would much rather have to deal with a higher menu price with the sign that saying tips not required then have to deal with trying to figure out how much the transaction is going to cost plus whatever the tip is going to be which seems to be getting higher and higher. Plus it also helps the employee out because if they're in a lower end restaurant that isn't getting many customers or they get assigned a crappier area, they don't have to keep track themselves to make sure they're reporting to their employer "hey I didn't actually make minimum wage this week so you're going to have to pay the difference" it also removes a lot of volitily in terms of how much you're actually going to get paid

if it isn't fucking me over I don't care, but like if it's fucking me over I'm not afraid to fight fire with fire and I will stoop to their level until mgmt addresses the problem

Crunchyroll has a comment section? I had seem ratings but never looked at the comments

I haven't heard about this game in years man that brings back memories

Very true, I was meaning more from a users standpoint, they spend money on the posts for people to see it, if everyone leaves they won't spend money on it, and what little advertisers they have left will bail or lower what they are willing to pay as well.

I really do think his end goal is just a full shutdown, but he wants to do it a little at a time because if he just nukes it, one he's out a lot of money

I hard disagree with that actually, there are a lot of people on the platform that Karma dive and intentionally try to do post that will up their interaction. But if you remove those systems then they're not going to care about the platform anymore. Not that those people are adding good content to the platform in the first place but they will leave the platform to find other areas due to this change

how the hell are they going to judge engagement, like that's the number one thing most of their user base wants is the ability to feel special and popular

man this states barely got electricity and internet up here and people be trying to get drone shows lmao.

It'll be another 5-10 years before its mainstream here

To me the graphics are turn off for me, just judging by trailer you have very old style Graphics which are cool so like your town and your party is a rimworld style Graphics which I'm on board with and then you go out on the trail and suddenly you have full-on shadered water and an actual detailed scenery background, but your party is still in that old style graphics? I'm really hoping they ironed that out before launch because it looks absolutely horrible
