With the implementation of Patch v0.5.5 this week, we must make yet another compromise. From this patch onward, gliding will be performed using a glider rather than with Pals. Pals in the player’s team will still provide passive buffs to gliding, but players will now need to have a glider in their inventory in order to glide.

How lame. Japan needs to fix its patent laws, it's ridiculous Nintendo owns the simple concept of using an animal to fly.

I'm talking about 70$ games man. Im talking about IP being locked away for decades. Genres of games dying off to push profitability of bigger projects. Strangling out smaller studios any way possible. I'm talking about Gamers. They came for GAMERS.

You're talking nonsense, is what you're talking about.

What does a genre drying up have to do with IP or copyright? Like, are you even reading your own words?

Strangling out smaller studios any way possible

Supergiant Games, CDPR, Larian, Sandfall Interactive and every single indie creator out there clearly haven't been informed of how horrible their situation is. Maybe you should contact them and let them know that the 10/10 games they've been making are impossible to make due to copyright and IP protection laws?
