It's beautiful, and often really engaging both in gameplay and in story/setting, but I'm already feeling a bit of puzzle fatigue after ~20% through the game. I'll see how far I'll continue.

Yeah, security is in layers and userland isn't automatically "safe", if that's what you're pointing out. So I did mention non-superusers. Separating the kernel from userland applications is also critically important to (try to) prevent non-superusers from accessing APIs and devices which only superusers (or those in particular groups) are able to reach.
Well hopefully you can't harm your computer with userland programs. Windows is perhaps a bit messy at this, generally, but Unix-like systems have pretty good protections against non-superusers interfering with either the system itself, or other users on the system.
Having drivers run in the kernel and applications run in userland also means unintentional application errors generally won't crash your entire system. Which is pretty important..

They're making a stand on blocking because they have a bigger perspective on the issues. Which I thought was quite well articulated in their article.
Net neutrality has been debated for decades and, as the EFF apparently still has to remind people, the entire thing conceptually goes out the window once it becomes acceptable for ISPs to start blocking content on their own volition, even if you happen to completely agree with the block. After some time building blocklists of generally understood to be nasty sites, ISPs with large entertainment interests will block piracy sites. Internet archive? Blocked. Blog which writes something nasty about them? Block. Anarchist Fedi community? Etc. That's what the EFF is warning about.
Yeah the cloaked enemies mission was also the highlight of chapter 1 for me. The far more interesting visual design of the area, the unique enemies and the mission design*. It was cool. But still disappointed that the ol' invisible enemies stage was the highlight of an entire chapter :P. I expected a lot more from FromSoft.

I'm a bit of a finance geek. While most finance-related content on the internet is iffy, this video is great advice for most people and expertly explained 👏
There's no contradiction there. You are required specifically optimize your build for the difficult boss fights -and- play with Sekiro-like skill. The game is clearly designed like this. And while I've never played any of the previous AC games I agree with OP that this feels Souls-like, with stamina, poise and everything.
The combat is fine perhaps. The main reason I don't like AC6 is because there's nothing interesting in it except the boss fights. It's the blandest FromSoft game I've ever played. Elden Ring kept me enthralled for a 100 hours until I got all achievements, trying to explore everything. An afternoon of AC6 I started to wonder why I was still playing, when after each mission or boss there's just going to be more of the same.
As a massive Dark Souls fan, AC6 is not even a very good Souls game. No deep lore and story, no beautiful scenery, no exploration at all. Even the bosses aren't as good, because DS bosses can be tackled in various ways (melee, ranged, magic, many cheese strats) while AC6 bosses are designed to only let very specific builds succeed, which is incredibly boring. I honestly don't understand the hype.
Huh. AI writing about AI industry news. AI-ception.
I enjoy these review threads. Very convenient to get an impression of a just-released game. Thanks for sharing.
