![]() ![]() Again, those who purchased the original game can acquire the paid-DLC “Encore Pack” and they’ll get everything that comes with Plus. Since we were going to increase the price, we figured we could contribute with some added value. Sonic Mania was originally available only digitally at a lower price to reflect that, however going physical meant added costs, so we couldn’t release it at the same price. Iizuka: No, we had a problem releasing the physical version. We had such a feeling of gratitude for everyone, we decided to go with a physical version. However, after release we had many fans say “We want a physical version!” Considering the older fans, I thought they would like to line it up next to all the other physical versions up until now. So you guys had to abandon a physical release at one point? Iizuka: Sonic Mania started out as a digital-exclusive project, but during its development we had people from the office say “We also want to release a physical version.” However, making the change to go with a physical version halfway through was a problem for the production line, and it would’ve changed the overall schedule, so we had to give it up. As for Sonic Mania Plus, how did its development start out? ![]() So it was met with favorable reception around the world. Again, up until the end of last year people had trouble acquiring Nintendo Switches around the world, so there seems to be some cases where folks finally got a hold of the hardware and are downloading the game. Moreover, physical games tend to sell a lot on its release day but then we often see it take a big drop afterwards, I’m not sure if it’s because Sonic Mania was a digital title, but its sales didn’t drop even after its release day. We’ve even had some people say “It’s the best game!” and we are most grateful about that. Takashi Iizuka, series producer: After its release in August 2017, its reception has been better than we could imagine. I heard fans from North America and Europe shared some exuberant support where it was favorably received. Series producer Takashi Iizuka talked about that and more in a recent interview with Famitsu.įamitsu: Before we get into the meat of it, please tell us about the reaction after the release of Sonic Mania. The addition of Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel for Sonic Mania Plus was a big surprise for old school Sonic fans. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() If you have purchased yearly subscriptions for the Support Services and/or Update Services, at the end of the year and any following year, the Support Services and/or Update Services shall renew automatically for another year. The Services shall start on the date on which Piriform sends a confirmatory email to you confirming full payment of the support and update fees and issuing your user account details, and shall continue for a period of 1 year or for such other period as we may agree with you in writing. Subject to your payment of the applicable annual update fees and support fees for the relevant year, Piriform shall from time to time, via its website, make available new versions of the Product for you to download and use (the "Update Services"). If you read the legal T&C for the period, it does make mention of a 1 year support period, but it also says some other stuff that is very misleading: I think Piriform's just trying to monetize their product by moving to a SaaS model, and that's going to burn existing customers. To be fair to Piriform, I don't think this was a malicious miscalculation. Regardless of how you or your moderators choose to spin this, you got some 'splainin to do. If you wanted to move to a SAAS model, then you could have at least given your PAYING customers some notice before you went after us without any lubrication. Until you can explain to us how "no expiration" magically turned into a retro-active date from 3 years ago in just the last release cycle, AND also explain why you were obviously OK sending me my same download link and license key > 1 year after my original purchase, you are obviously guilty of a bait'n switch.Īdditionally, NOTHING in my PDF receipt from Cleverbridge (that I also still have) says anything at all about license expiration or subscription. Showing us newly-updated EULA's AFTER our purchase was made is completely invalid. When I made this purchase, this was NOT a subscription-based product, and you have no evidence to suggest it was. I also see that the license key request I asked for on 9/24/ 2017 shows that my key had expired, and the download link disappeared as well, indicating that you made this change to my account sometime in late 2017 without any notice to me whatsoever - and yet my products still continued to update normally. Today, when I request my license key, I get a similar page, only now that dash has been magically replaced with the date "". Also, I have a different license key request e-mail from Piriform dated (well after your so-called "1 year of support" that shows the exact same thing - no expiration date with a valid download link. Under "Expiration", I have a single dash "-", as in NO EXPIRATION. I kept the mail you sent me when I made my ONE TIME purchase, and it clearly shows the product name, customer name, license key, expiration, and my download link. This is DEFINITELY bait'n'switch, Piriform! You lot could learn a thing or two from Malwarebytes about customer support. Piriform has clearly changed the terms of the licence recently and rather than haggle about it, I will simply abandon what was once a great product.

Stray Dogs was released in theaters on September 12, 2014. Calling it a "glum, humorless exercise in Asian miserablism", he wrote that " Stray Dogs, with its glacial pace and disconnected narrative, often feels more like an art installation than like a movie." He added that the film "sustains a hypnotic intensity anchored in exquisite cinematography that portrays the modern industrial cityscape as a chilly wasteland." Release Stephen Holden of The New York Times wrote a mixed review for the film. It won the Grand Jury Prize at the 70th Venice International Film Festival. Stray Dogs has an 86% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Others are so stylized that they might well represent dreams." Reception Some shots are so realist that they could have been taken with a hidden camera. Most of its scenes are single shots, and there's no causal link between one and the next. Tony Rayns of Film Comment wrote that, unlike Tsai's previous films, Stray Dogs "does away almost completely with continuity editing. Torrential rain is virtually constant, and Taipei feels depopulated - a place where events, mostly concerning food and shelter, may be staged in situ." She then follows a bunch of street urchins of go to huff. The pacing feels way too slow for it’s own good, the movie isn’t exactly thrilling and the movie does fall in cliche territory towards the end. She runs around, goes up a hill, sniffs the butt of a dog with an owner, and then romps a bit with that creature. Hoberman of The New York Times, "Like other films by Mr. Zeytin, the sturdy mutt who’s the first of three dogs we get to know in this often camera-to-the-ground portrait, is a soulful looking beast, a heartbreaker at first sight. Stray Dogs is similar to Tsai's previous films in some ways. The two siblings in the film were played by actual siblings, who are Lee's nephew and niece and Tsai's godchildren. It starred Tsai's regular lead actor, Lee Kang-sheng, as the father. The film was written by Tsai, Peng Fei, and Tung Cheng Yu, and it was produced by Vincent Wang. Stray Dogs was the 10th feature film directed by Tsai. The east Londoner won a Bafta for her performance as the teenage lead in Sarah Gavron’s hit 2019 film. She "rescues" them from the rainstorm-drenched punt where the father has stowed them, and later joins the family in an abandoned building assuming her maternal role.

The choice to use emojis here is intentional. ![]() Hill could have used non-emoji quotation marks, but she didn’t. KWuk5VIEjJ- 〰️Jane Solomon〰️ October 28, 2017 Never seen anyone else use ✌️ for air quotes before. Let’s all take a moment to appreciate ADVANCED emoji use. The first time I noticed this was on writer and commentator Jemele Hill’s Twitter account. ![]() In the category of emojis as punctuation framing non-emoji text is the ✌️Victory Hand used on either side of a word or string of words as air quotes. Emojis as PunctuationĮmojis used as punctuation can be split up into two subgroups based on positioning around other non-emoji text: emojis surrounding and framing non-emoji text and emojis as terminal punctuation. Perhaps they will even become formalized. As time passes, perhaps a set of rules will become understood by emoji users. These are important factors in the evolving conventions of how emojis interact with existing punctuation. What feels right, what feels wrong, what looks-for lack of a better word-dorky. You’re far more likely to see emojis used in short-form informal contexts where traditional punctuation conventions are playfully defenestrated in the name of creative expression than in formal contexts where punctuation rules are more standardized and revered. She concludes that it’s about personal style preference and avoiding a cluster of characters that look weird or might cause confusion.Īs with the case of the dropped period in text messaging and social media posts where an “end of thought” is implied, including unnecessary punctuation can appear overly formal, and that can come across as stiffness or sometimes passive aggression. Gretchen McCulloch asked these questions in a 2015 Mental Floss piece, so I won’t go into this in too much depth here. If an emoji falls at the end of a sentence, do you need to use any terminal punctuation? Does the emoji act as enough of a visual stopping point, or is classic punctuation required? If you’re using quotation marks, does an emoji go inside or outside them? Throwing emojis into the mix doesn’t simplify matters. Thinkpieces on the passive-aggressive period have been coming out since as early as 2013. He explained that in addition to this act of pressing “send,” there’s also a visual cue to suggest the end of a transmission: “Text messages and tweets already have a terminus, which is just the fact that they exist in little ‘bubbles.’” For these reasons, when a period is used, it can sometimes feel angry. Linguist and emoji expert Tyler Schnoebelen has been studying online communication for over a decade. For some people this makes periods obsolete in this informal context. ![]() In a text message, pressing “send” often indicates a stop in a thought, or at the very least, a physical pause in typing. In the realm of text messages and social media, the role of the period has been up for debate in recent years. Periods are perhaps the most basic punctuation mark and the first piece of punctuation a young child learns, but even their use has been in flux over the last decade. Rules of punctuation are not always as fixed or straightforward as they might seem. Emojis with Punctuationīefore diving into how emojis interact with existing punctuation, it’s important to establish that punctuation, like the language it frames, is a living, evolving thing. Above: Rules for using emojis alongside punctuation or as a replacement for punctuation are in flux. ![]() In absence of any formal conventions, emojis’ place alongside traditional punctuation often comes down to a rubric of subjective user intuition.Īdditionally emojis are being used as punctuation in a variety of ways, sometimes to mimic actual punctuation marks, sometimes to echo a gesture, and sometimes to evoke shared cultural knowledge. When it comes to emojis and punctuation, the rules are still up in the air. ![]() ![]() ![]() An example of such a system is Microsoft’s Image Converter which can help you refine any issues you may be experiencing with transparency on MS Paint.
