    due to the way causality works it would be pretty difficult to tell a story in any genre where someone’s opportunities in life are not strongly correlated to circumstances from their past that are outside of their control (like their birth)

    And he’s right! It might not be as good as the games that came before it or after it but that bar is so high that it can still be a great game despite it








  • These extensions work first by looking at the contents of the page you’re on to detect a paywall, and then make modifications to the page that remove the paywall. There’s no way for the browser-creators to guarantee that the extension isn’t also silently adding a hidden element that captures everything that you type into that website, in addition to the paywal removal, so they’re basically trying to warn you such a thing could happen.

    And that is a genuine risk from every extension in the addons store, but I would say that risk is potentially even higher with a piracy extension installed from a github relese. (Not this one in particular per se, which I have no opinion about, just in general.) If it makes you uncomfortable, a reasonable compromise could be to create a new browser profile for use only with this extension, or maybe even use a different browser entirely than your daily driver.
