ono, do gaming w Nintendo has filed over 30 Tears of the Kingdom patents, registering things you wouldn't even notice in the game

Here’s the original article:

automaton-media.com/en/news/20230808-20590/

Sounds like Nintendo wants to go on a litigation spree.

A related patent defines a mechanic that prevents Link from grabbing an object he is on top of using Ultrahand, which also seems rather intuitive. The patent does, however, go into details such as the mechanic also blocking Link from using Ultrahand on objects which have been joined to an object he is on top of.

The word “obvious” comes to mind.

“a game processing method capable of enriching game presentation during a waiting period in which at least part of the game processing is interrupted” and consists of filling up the loading period that ensues after the user inputs their fast travel destination with a sequence in which an image of the starting point’s map transitions into a map of the destination. After this sequence, the character is placed into the virtual space of the destination.

So, that thing films have been doing for decades?

I hope the patent examiners have some sense in their heads when considering these.

Andjhostet,

I will say that map loading screen thing is obvious but I've never seen it before in a video game and it was a small detail I really loved.

ono,

Yes, it’s nice.

Thankfully, we can appreciate things that are obvious or aren’t novel without granting a society-funded monopoly on them. In fact, both those criteria generally disqualify them from patent, for good reason.

Andjhostet,

Good point. Don't get me wrong, I am definitely not in support of them getting a patent for it, and I'm against patents in general. I'm just saying I loved it more than I expected, and want to see it more.

Would these parents hold up in court?

Nick,

Assuming that these patents are all granted, courts will generally treat them as though they are valid and enforceable. However, the bar for getting a patent is generally rather difficult, so it could be the case that none of these patent prosecutions are successful at all. If they get these patents, all Nintendo would have to do is file an infringement against allegedly infringing parties, and then the onus is almost entirely on the responding party to prove either that they did not violate the patent, or that the patent was invalid in the first place. Nintendo loses almost nothing in trying to enforce a patent, and has plenty to gain from the chilling effect that prolonged litigation could have.

It takes an anti-consumer boot locker perspective while not listing a single patent. Some shitposts have more actual content than this article.

gunpachi, do games w Bayonetta director Hideki Kamiya thinks Japanese devs should be proud of 'JRPG'

Wait… they were not proud of JRPG’s before ?

Nefyedardu,

Yoshi P, game directory for FFXIV and FFXVI, famously decried the term. Which is probably why FFXVI has basically no RPG elements.

Absolutely nuts!

They got really lucky with that Zeus special boon at the beginning.

Jesus, Jade makes it look so easy.

I’d be dead within a minute at most.

It’s important to understand that Angel1c (Jade) and Baj were the only two players with the skill level who could have possibly had a chance to beat unmodded, unseeded 64 heat. They already beat 64 heat runs with mods or seeds, so it was a matter of getting that insanely luck RNG to reach the goal.

Website has a link to a Reddit post which is just a link to YouTube. How many jumps did I need to make to watch the video at the source?😂

wahming,

Aren’t all the videos linked directly from OP’s post?

RogueBanana,

I think he was just criticizing the journal website not op

@p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah, OP’s videos in the posts were the exact ones I would have linked. Go watch those.

Haelian’s reaction is more informative than just being an average reaction video, because he describes the decision making in the choices Angel1c made.

God damn that’s an insane run

GeneralRetreat,

Those last few seconds were absolutely hair-raising, even if we already knew how it was going to end!

worfamerryman,

If there a commentary to explain what’s going on?

GeneralRetreat,

The two YouTube links from Haelian in my summary set up the context for why this is really hard, and then commentary on the actual run itself.

worfamerryman,

Thank you, I must have overlooked those links.

@p03locke@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Yeah, with all of his safeties exhausted, he beat it with the lowest amount of health possible. One more hit and the run would have been over.

dragynbob,

FYI I believe the player uses she/they pronouns

Yeah I watched it on Haelian’s stream and he was so anxious in the third phase even though he knew how it was gonna turn out. That fight was absolutely wild.

UprisingVoltage, do gaming w Hades player beats unmodded 64 Heat difficulty run - "arguably unachievable in thousands of hours"

Brb, gonna play hades and then watch them all in order to understand everything that’s going on

ogeist,

And then he never returned as for he was forever trapped in an infinite loop of rogue-like gaming…

Farewell stranger, may the RNG be good to you…

sanzky,

Bouldy believes in you!

GeneralRetreat,

See you in 200 hours, enjoy!

Also, if you’re playing for the first time maybe don’t watch those videos until you’ve completed at least one run for spoiler reasons.

DarkThoughts, do gaming w Final Fantasy 6 director is still pushing for a remake

Honestly, I'm usually not a fan of what they do to pixel art games with their ugly 3D graphics.

Honestly, I’d rather not. Remakes tend to be disappointing, and I don’t want that to happen to my favorite game.

...But then again, uncle Ultros in 3D…

Yeah it’s my favorite FF but it seems unnecessary. We already got the pixel remasters, don’t really need a 3d remake ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Edit: typos

Kiosade,

FF7R was pretty good, i’d like to see how they could expand on FF6. Although… there are way too many playable characters. Might not be possible to do it justice.

I want a remake with visuals done by the artist who illustrated the instruction manual, that would be amazing.

nzodd,

That would be Yoshitaka Amano.

Deconceptualist,

Thanks 🙂

WilloftheWest, do gaming w Final Fantasy 6 director is still pushing for a remake

I need a HD train suplex.

nzodd,

Son of a submariner, that would be swell
