Seconding to emulation, for open world RPG you may find a lot of them on older consoles like pre-Gen 7 consoles (PS3/X360). To OP, assuming emlation is compliant with law on your country, older games are great too if you don't mind delving pre-2010s games.

Tbh this is first time I learned japanese being divided over mods. As stated on the written article, Capcom and Square Enix on Final Fantasy are those that "worried" by mods because they deem some stuff are too "over to the top".

On Assetto Corsa for example Japanese players embrace modding because it is one of the only way to fully experience driving over real course like The infamous Shuto Expressway network that back in the day used for street racing.

The social element is introduced in Persona 3 however the school setting can be traced back to SMT: if... that also introduces the spin off series Persona (Persona 3 before the re-release P3FES was marketed with Shin Megami Tensei moniker).

No, however it loosely contain some elements of mainline games like alignment "Law vs Chaos", multiple endings, and moral/motives. Full body expands the multiple endings a bit especially with the new character.

Now that you mention it, also no Synchronicity prologue, SH2, IV:A missing... Definitely this chart came before Persona 5 as it has the placeholder art instead of the released game cover art.

First of all, I am not an expert (23, Mechatronics grad mostly focusing on Electronics and Hardware) all we can rely on are published documents that we can read.

As we delve into practical answers and from several references that I skim-read through, the correlation between older nodes and reliability exists however enhancing the fabrication process is possible.

This article provides a good write-up regarding the common knowledge of radiation and IC. Ultimately, we shouldn't overthink what engineers are doing unless we also have a specific interest/being part of the project. Reading/Learning something is fun as long as you know the limit of what you can process at the time and at the same time have the limit of what you should read and should not. Again, I am not an expert; I only provide knowledge that is published and based on my limited understanding. Besides I found it interesting to dig for information from published documents :)

As much as skepticism, MIPS itself is old. Besides, good press (yet they don't fully open the details) can boost their publicity (if you understand what I mean).

As long as the bare necessities is available e.g 14" with HDMI, 2 Type C with PD and DP Alt, MicroSD/SD card reader, smart card reader(?), 2 USB A 3.1, 1x 3.5mm jack, 1x ethernet port, kensington and easy maintenance, for me it's enough. VGA connectors (dang those older projectors) can be handled with VGA to HDMI adapter.

My daily device is T14 G1 AMD with dualbooting separate SSD (M.2 WWAN slot used as SSD).

Considering Threadripper also act as "bridge" between Ryzen and Epyc, and having tremendous I/O (PCIe lanes, quad channel memory, and definitely PCIe connectors) it is possible that AMD just don't want to waste some dies and sell them as is with reduced price. Same as like 5500GT ryzen which really weird being cut down 5600G without igpu and having less cache (than 5600) makes it slower than Ryzen 5 5500.

Other than that it kind of weird enough as if you can afford the Threadripper platform, you definitely can get the higher core count to feed your PCIe storages, the fast Ethernet interface and the quad channel memory.

Pretty sure for outer space application they have to understand that the chip need to be shielded and withstand the radiation. Single bit flip if not handled correctly could result in chain reaction.

As long as they succeed in doing so. It is good for competition. But yeah without transparency/a publication, the claim can be iffy not to mention you can interpret "advanced" as coming from previous iteration.

Funnily the Persona series deals topic that is closer to our day to day live (i.e Persona 3, Persona 4) compared to mainline/other megaten spin off series.

As grim as it gets...In Persona 2 you have to battle against Nyarlathotep disguised as Fuhrer.

~~If someone wondering how big is the Megami Tensei universe (the series as a whole), this picture below probably the closest I can get. There are other pictures too but I guess this one is the one that have connection between the games.~~

EDIT: I remove the image link just to avoid the headache of the lore and consistencies.

Imo what I like from this series (especially on the main line series) compared to the other JRPG games is that the mythology portrayal, the mature themes and the battle of "Law vs Chaos" is that great and doesn't shy away from source material. I couldn't explained it myself but it is just something different than your average JRPG.

Read at your own riskLiterally in one of the mainline game, you have to battle YHVH

Oh and Megami Tensei almost always has banger OST if you all never played them.

Especially when they have luxury of lubed switches, foam, dampeners/stabilizers, custom case material (that keeb def. Custom one).
