The dbzer0 thing is not because of simple drama, but because lemmy mirrors contents onto the server itself. To not become liable for piracy, they blocked the instance, because it was linking pirate content. Even on reddit you were never allowed to post that.
The boss blind ability trigger joker for money.
I especially fail to see the value to drive up obsolescence. Look how the Final Fantasy XIV art team, or the Tyranny RPG expressed so much through comparatively ancient engines of the PS3 era. And for shooters we have so much visual polished fidelity, with physics, high resolution textures and dynamic lighting to create anything you want. From “Prey” (2016) to Prey (2005) I think both look amazing.

They shouldn’t be used as such, but frequently are. It is even more difficult to distinguish between disagreement and insufficient argumentation.
The entire gambling lootboxes were massively popularized by Valve, turning Team Fortress 2 from pay2play to predatory gambling.
I can vouch for Humankind too. It offers quite some depth and variability despite some stupid balancing here and there. Beware though it can often feel unfair and broken due to a hidden steep learning curve, as faith and influence are your core diplomatic strength, and the emphasis on territories when the game shoves cities in the main UI focus. Underneath its game design is largely quite good.
