That's a proper level 99 monk. Edit - Boring rear end realtalk. He's a Buddhist monk. Part of the practice is total concentration so no-selling the antics of a bunch of kittens is par for the course. Z the IVth fucked around with this message at 18:02 on Dec 18, 2020 |

That's on top of missions not starting, randomly not being able to draw weapons/pick up loot, whole cutscenes not playing or skipping somehow, etc.

I bought my wife a phone for Christmas and today the new phone spontaneously activated sitting in my closet. She is away at work and her phone now doesn’t work. I went back to the carrier and told them they made a mistake and they said they can’t do anything for me because the SIM card she has is now burned and can never be used again so they have no way to revert it, but they said I can just take her a new SIM card. I told them she is currently away for work and I can’t do that. So I guess Christmas surprise ruined because she will definitely figure it out and she has a stay away from home and a long drive home in the ice without a cell phone because she isn’t near one of the carrier’s locations.

If it's a carrier with a SIM, she might be able to buy one at a best buy or something if she's near one, depending on the carrier. It'll be weird to explain, but she won't be completely phoneless.

Serephina posted:That video is about 10 minutes too long, and I suspect could be typed out in a few sentences. Got a TL:DR? The original release of Spyro:YOTD has multiple anti-piracy checks. A few of the checks are very obvious and fire early in the game. But some of them don't trigger until you're deeper into the game, and have some annoying and subtle effects that don't immediately appear to be related to anti-piracy -- e.g. eggs and gems start to go missing so that certain levels can't be completed, health pickups stop working, the selected language for NPC dialogue randomly changes, certain levels randomly kick you out or are replaced with other levels, and so on. Several cracker groups found the early/obvious checks, made a patch to remove those, and released it, only to get a bunch of complaints that their patch was buggy and had broken the game. In the end, it took over two months before a group managed to make a complete working patch for the game. There's an old article from 2001 from the devs about how they implemented it here. There's quite a few games that have this kind of subtle copy protection that corrupts the game -- the other famous one is Earthbound, where the enemy encounter rate (and its difficulty) goes through the roof, and if you somehow manage to get to the final boss despite that, the final boss wipes your save games and then softlocks the game.

It was fun checking the official Deus Ex support forum and seing people get banned for asking why they couldn't get on the boat after the first mission since that was a piracy trigger. Serious Sam 3 that's mentioned in the Spyro video also had a good one. The devs leaked the whole game to torrent sites but it had a unkillable tiny scorpion dude with miniguns who would randomly spawn and start following you. That poo poo sure beats Starforce that would kill CD-drives of legitimate owners og games. Had to pirate Hitman Contracts, Scrapland and some other game since the games wouldn't even install on my PC.

I think this wasn't even a copy protection, but the pirates removed voice clips to get the file size down and one of them was actually tied to the level ending trigger.

Games companies have figured out the only way to stop piracy is to release an unplayable mess that will need 100 patches in the first few months. People will pay the cost price to not have to manually update.
