Because that is all they got. Even if they make some profit on the sale of the hardware, it is peanuts compared to the game and tie-in sales. Losing control of even a single IP would be a serious hit to them.

Valve has been quite supportive of fan projects like Black Mesa and Delta Particles and only demanding to remove Half-Life from the name to protect their trademark. But I guess they don’t want to risk involving Nintendo.
The clarification on Xitter states deleting and reinstalling is 2 charges, the same as installing to 2 different devices. https://twitter.com/stephentotilo/status/1701679721027633280?s=20
So… If the Unity’s secret spyware and algorithm suddenly decides to count an update as a new installation, you suddenly get slapped with a huge bill. Especially if you release multiple small patches and your whole player base is counted multiple times.
The Settlers games have not been Settlers games after the fourth one. Except of course the remake, but that also was a very long time ago.
That is exactly what happened with third pound burgers.

That’s the difference, they hoard wealth and not currency. The value of assets do not go down when currency loses its value with inflation.
Wealthy have little to no cash that would lose value with inflation, they just buy everything on credit and have their wealth tied to assets and investments that probably gain value at least at the pace of inflation.
“smart” devices aka Internet asbestos
Yeah, that’s the joke. The video ends abruptly because of a segfault.
I have become so clumsy with the wires, it was less wasteful for me to buy wireless earbuds with wire only between them. The modern codecs are high quality and I only use them outside, so the nuance would be anyway lost.
Smart speakers I do not have. I feel weird talking to devices and I would have to do it in English because they support my native language poorly if at all. I’m not sure if they even are officially available here.
Everything unnecessarily connected to the Internet should have this on them, because they have very little security auditing and all support is dropped very early on the lifetime of the appliance. https://kissa.depili.fi/internet_asbestos_52x32_cmyk.pdf
I have had some people refuse to even try Baba Is You, because it looks ugly.
I had The Hex a few years even installed, so I have tried it, but only after getting familiar with the style of Daniel Mullins’ games with Inscryption I pushed far enough to get interested. Still very clunky, but worth it.
Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
I really like the name Pinguini Tattici Nuclear. The music is good, but not quite something I would put on my playlist.
Baba Yetu always gives me chills.
I have never been good at remembering lyrics and often kind of ignore them. I have been surprised multiple times about what songs that I have listened for a while are about when the lyrics finally click in my head.
I enjoy more the sound of the artist and in good music you don’t need to understand the words for the emotion to come through.
Like Memories of Dust is one of the most emotional songs even though the lyrics are in [human language]
I like using Firefox, but it’s a bit ironic to have google analytics tracking on the page you declare to protect the users privacy.
