I was recently discussing Farcry 2 with some friends and how cool the fire spread system was - And how it essentially was never used again after that title.

Is there a cool feature or mechanic you’ve seen in a game and hope to see more of?

    The term has the meaning now of “pointlessly explaining something in a way that’s intentionally trying to be detracting of the other party, like a stereotype of a man would do”, rather than being locked into gender

      It wasn’t pointless of me to try and help you and others know the difference between copyrights and patents. It’s a very common misconception. It wasn’t detracting from your point, either. At no point did I argue that the game companies doing this are actually morally correct and that it shouldn’t bother you that the Nemesis System is patented or that Nintendo is patenting things like capturing monsters.
