Of course, that's not the most recent remake of Myst. The current one is called, er, 'Myst'.

Sigh. Looking forward to Riven. Again.

So are they actually going to bother to release this one, or...

More like grabbing a bargain; When Embracer bought Saber it cost them more than $500 million. They sold it to Beacon (who are basically just a bunch of investors and one of the Saber founders) for just under $250 million, and are now stacking up extras from the Embracer spending spree while they still can.

On a similar note, who do we reckon is buying Gearbox? My money is on Take 2, because who would be stupid enough to buy Gearbox (Embracer aside) when the Borderlands publishing rights are permanently in 2K's hands?

Oh god, it's 2K publishing.

Which means that the game disappearing from storefronts is one of the better case scenarios. It's entirely possible that they'll patch out the licenced songs from the soundtrack from every digital copy of the game.

It's an American-Japanese co-production, so I'd say it was anime, but you have to say it with a rising inflection like it's a question.

Elim Garak, because how can you not love a ~~patently duplicitous and yet still somehow generally benevolent smooth-talker who chews all the scenery and exudes the queerest energy~~ simple tailor?

Heck, Lower Decks already did it with Boimler, with the status quo being back to normal after two episodes of fun B-plots on the Titan.

My suspicion is that the game would have been delayed had the new Harebrained Schemes game not just flopped.

Not Trombone Champ, 2022's best indie game?

Heck, even before you take into account differing xenobiologies, this has precedent on earth; different cultures are often unused to how other cultures smell.

The choice of Bynars as the latest victims was clever; if you're going to remind everyone what's going on with mysterious ship, but need to get through the entire sequence as quickly as possible, go with the species that transfer information at the quickest rate!
