Forced party setups are almost always a nice thing, and they did it in a somewhat less punishing way; by using the character in your roster if your character is at max level (that seems to be the condition I think, instead of some complex rule to calculate strength). Great for immersion, and can sometimes increase the difficulty of a fight due to a lack of synchronization, but that’s just part of the immersion IMO.

I’ve quite enjoyed the story myself. It’s a simple story, but also ties up some loose stories and gives them an ending, especially if you’ve paid attention to character stories and NPC interactions, loose ends that have basically been around since the launch of the game.

Some people will probably find the whole poem thing meh and maybe confusing. It’s actually a nod to a few traditional Chinese cultures all related to poems, which mean it’s a chance for those who don’t know to have a peek at the culture, or it’s pure nostalgia for those who grew up experiencing it.

Doesn’t mean the defaults shouldn’t be sane

Of all the people to make a comment it ended up being Nico huh

Just like my luck IRL! :’)

You are correct. This notion of “size” of sets is called “cardinality”. For two sets to have the same “size” is to have the same cardinality.

The set of natural numbers (whole, counting numbers, starting from either 0 or 1, depending on which field you’re in) and the integers have the same cardinality. They also have the same cardinality as the rational numbers, numbers that can be written as a fraction of integers. However, none of these have the same cardinality as the reals, and the way to prove that is through Cantor’s well-known Diagonal Argument.

Another interesting thing that makes integers and rationals different, despite them having the same cardinality, is that the rationals are “dense” in the reals. What “rationals are dense in the reals” means is that if you take any two real numbers, you can always find a rational number between them. This is, however, not true for integers. Pretty fascinating, since this shows that the intuitive notion of “relative size” actually captures the idea of, in this case, distance, aka a metric. Cardinality is thus defined to remove that notion.

And so you end up driving up food and housing demand, with no guarantee that the revived population can provide to the supply side. :P

Depending on how their database schema’s designed, editing might not actually help. Some designs are made to track every change, so edits will just end up being a row in the database, and lookbacks can be super easy. For example, you might just have to ask the database to give you what a comment looked like at a given time.

The fact that Reddit can still tell you that the user deleted their account is proof that not all of that user’s data in their systems are deleted. It may just be a flag in an account that marks them as “deleted”, and so whenever data about that account is being retrieved, their API server will look at that flag, and tell the recipient that the account is “deleted”. People in the software industry calls this “soft deletion”.
