raiders in rimworld run away once you’ve inflicted enough kills on their group

that’s vanilla, but one mod i like also makes it so individual raiders will retreat when they’re injured, and retreating raiders will try to rescue their downed allies and take them along

definitely makes the fights easier, but i like it a lot more. kinda dumb for all enemies in all games to act like zombie hordes

at the risk of committing post necromancy, what is the name of this mod? sounds cool

IANAL but i assume it depends on what the original terms were and whether or not the previous licensing agreements leave room for modification after the fact

almost certainly not valid if it's "we reserve the right to retrospectively modify this contract at any time" because then lol what contract, but it could allow for arbitrary pricing changes though I'd have expected that someone would have raised that before...

the great part about this is that even if unity walks back every single announced change, they've permanently damaged their own reputation. i know that i'm never gonna use unity for a hobbyist project again because on the off-chance i decide to sell it and it takes off i don't want to be on the hook for this stupid bullshit

ianal but i thought "contract wording that lets you change the contract without both parties' agreement" is specifically called out as unenforceable. like how you can't use a contract to sign away your right to an attorney, or give someone permission to murder you, or whatever. the law just doesn't work if you allow that sort of thing.

can you actually write one that says "also, we can unilaterally go back and add extra charges for anything that happened in this business relationship any time if we decide to" and will that stand up in court?

it's like buying a car and the car company says three years later "by the way, we're now charging by the mile, so someone will be by to check your odometer and send you a bill." no goddamn way would you have to pay that, even if the car's EULA (what a sad phrase) said they could.

EULAs are not magic spells, a suit could easily end with a ruling that this exceeds the bounds of "fee" for some arcane lawyer reason or that you can't put that sort of thing in a contract

Jenny Agutter

well they’re not retroactively charging, only charging for installs after Jan 1 2024. in any case unitys lawyers say it’s fine for them to change/add fees, and I doubt the vast majority of unity devs can even afford a corporate lawyer, and unity will absolutely settle with anyone who can afford to sue before it gets decided by the courts. maybe all the backlash gets them to back off to one extent or another but I doubt the courts are going to be much of a factor

yeah I found them, I'd gone straight past the doors because of the camera occlusion and of course the entire map was revealed so no way to see that there was an un-entered room

the fight with Balthazar inside the shadow realm was total bullshit, oh yes let's just have an enemy that can spam cloud kill and is immune to the effects itself that sounds totally reasonable

can anyone even do radiant damage, other than my shar-worshipping cleric who i suspect is looking for any excuse to bleed my charming elf rear end over an altar?

a couple of weapons can, and there's a ring that adds it iirc

but pillar of radiance or whatever it is seems basically useless.

also for that fight the "spawn enemies everywhere" produces a classic "your wizard gets killed round one" situation. In the end I had to keep reloading until I got lucky with a round one stun that let me take him down and then clear out the rest of the trash

i think games like the black watchmen are cool but the fact they kind of depend on external websites functioning and the domains still being owned by them kinda sucks. i have paid money for a cool game that just might not work if the developers decide its not worth the money to keep paying for its upkeep

why doesn't somebody just come along and rip off titanfall. that game was so good, and the original creators are certainly not ever working on it again.
