To answer your questions: this is posted in [email protected] because this specific petition relates to the interests of this specific Lemmy community, this does not mean it’s “so important”, or that it’s a priority, it’s just one of the many topics the users that frequent this community are interested about.
On the topic of other petitions, there are actually a lot of different petitions by European Citizen, that are available on the website dedicated to it: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/. For example, there are two other petitions that are at the same stage of the Stop Killing Games petition (they’re in the process of verification). One calls for a ban on conversion therapies, which are discriminatory and harmful towards LGBTQ+ citizen, the other calls to “Stop Extremism” within the European Union, but is rather vague about what it’s about.
The “My Voice, My Choice: For Safe And Accessible Abortion” was verified as “Valid Initiative” on September of this year, and on the 1st of October, its representatives met with Hadja Lahbib, European Commissioner for Equality, and European Commissioner for Preparedness and Crisis Management to discuss it, they will later have the opportunity to present it publicly to Parliament Members, which may hold a dedicated debate session. So far there’s been 11 “Answered Initiatives” of varying subjects (this means the parliament debated on it, and reached a conclusion, and made a statement, you can learn more about the process here: https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/how-it-works_en).
It’s a great system that’s underused in my opinion (lots of reasons for it but that’s another subject matter). If you’re a European Citizen and feel like there are topics you would like to bring to the European Parliament, I highly encourage you to create one and fight for what you believe is important!
Their initial switch from a pve only game was motivated by data and metrics that showed them it was a better choice to make an extraction shooter (they said themselves somewhere that the game just wasn’t fun). I trust they made the right call, so I would say a pve only mode in Arc Raiders would dillute the tension of each round played.
That being said, I’m also very risk averse, so I dislike the pvp part of the game. While I think its a necessary part of the gameplay, and that it brings awesome uncertainty and adrenaline, I think Embark should try and create incentives for more cooperation between players, encourage pvp as a conscious, intended, risky choice rather than a reasonable option when encountering other players.
From Tech Test 2 to the current Server Slam, they’ve apparently buffed the robots/arc enemies strength, I think that’s a step in the right direction, even if I haven’t personally noticed a change 🤷♀️




PIF is Saudi Arabia and Affinity Partners is Jared Kushner BTW

I usually check protondb for more detailed data on games compatibility https://www.protondb.com/
Not every single one, but a fair amount. People maintain compatibility lists for different emulators, for example this is one for Ryujinx https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Ryujinx_Game_Compatibility_List
Edit : better yet here’s a list from the same wiki, of emulators for the Switch, with a % of game compatibles https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Nintendo_Switch_emulators


The devs themselves have released a timeline from their point of view, on their website https://classic-offensive.net/#/timeline ; I dont know if it contains the info the guy mentioned, but its probably where most articles in the subject are getting info from










In the case of Mario it’s a smart way of handling the limited data available, its not a duplicate texture like Helldivers, its the same cloud copy pasted just with a different color.
From what I understand Helldivers had the same files duplicated multiple times so that HDD could find them easily (somehow)
