My theory is that they're not actually trying to make games. They are trying to make money printers.

I've really enjoyed having Firefox and Ublock on my phone. It's so nice :) I'm hoping for augmented Steam and Unpinterested extensions to get added too.
You can donate directly to Godot or FNA if you want to show support and don't think that you'd enjoy Terraria. Personally, I love Terraria and have bought it for pretty much every system I own and everyone I know. I got interested in it after watching TotalBiscuit and Jesse Cox play it. (I can't believe that was 12 years ago!)
You know, a cute blouse with a kicky pair of trousers. An outfit.
itch.io has regular browser games here: https://itch.io/games/platform-web
itch.io also has PICO-8 games that can be played in the browser here: https://itch.io/games/tag-pico-8
Many of the top PICO-8 games are de-makes of popular titles, so that might help. Here's a list for de-makes: https://github.com/pixelbath/pico8demakes.
Celeste seems like your best option, but there are a handful of games with the "Narrative" tag here: https://itch.io/games/tag-narrative/tag-pico-8
You don’t need to offer solutions when complaining about something not working or feeling right, jfc.
In fact, most developers kinda hate when you offer suggestions, because they don't like armchair developers.
There’s constant fixes for it btw from the ublockorigin team now! :D
Ads would have happened anyway like it's happening on the streaming services. They've got people paying subscriptions *with *ads. Double the money, double the fun, right?
PBS has a good video on it: https://youtu.be/et7XvBenEo8?si=w2ZJDnYQbWDY3TgR
The summary is that scientists don't have a single, simple equation that they can use to precisely predict the orbits of three bodies based on the initial positions and velocities of those bodies like they can with only two bodies (the two-body problem). The solutions they have are either approximate solutions (not precise, but close enough to be useful), equations that apply only to specific types of orbits and therefore can't be used to predict other three-body orbits, and a general equation that is so ridiculously long that it is not really usable. I am also just a layman, so take my summary with a grain of salt, but hopefully the video will help.
Does Wii U with its entire eShop count as a retro console? Because, despite being unpopular, it had a lot of games from a lot of past Nintendo consoles.
The developer took that one down to focus on their health, they said. https://www.dexerto.com/gaming/only-up-creator-reveals-they-are-removing-the-game-on-steam-due-to-stress-2284288/
I just want to be able to use a password manager with Steam for online games.
I think you're exactly right - it is the combination of money + little oversight that is the big problem. Warframe seems to do a good job with tennogen but they limit it to only cosmetic mods and seem to be pretty restrictive about what they accept into their store. I don't see how you could have good oversight for a game with as many mods as something like Skyrim has.
That was definitely the impression that I got from the reviews and it's a shame.
I am not disagreeing with the premise that it's fair for someone to be paid for their work. However, during the Skyrim paid mod controversy (on Steam), I learned that there a lot of situations where having paid mods did hurt the modding community and created ethical concerns.
I would also point out that it wasn't just greedy players that complained about paid mods - a lot of modders thought it went against the spirit of modding because of how it harmed collaboration in the community. Suddenly, they couldn't trust that others would not steal their work or profit from it unfairly. And, that seems like a reasonable take to me, given all the abuses that modders claimed happened in the short time that paid modding was a thing for Skyrim on Steam.
