Most of it comes down to the user. You need to be precise about naming and sorting media with all of these media libraries. With non-standard media - like fan edits, combined episodes and the likes - my usual shortcut is to place it in bonus feature of regular media.

GTA VI is much larger. It's the kind of game that, just like its predecessors, will appear prominently in mainstream news and general discourse, because it's such a hugely influential and well-known thing, well beyond the gaming world. Ask non-gamers about Cyberpunk 2077 and most will never have heard of it - but I can assure you, with GTA, it's different.

This isn't unjustified in many ways. The series has never produced a dud, each 3D mainline game has been, on a technical and narrative level, as well as especially in terms of world building (no other studio in the AAA space comes even close here) far above most other contemporary titles, despite obviously not being perfect - and the enormous popularity combined with its player freedom, violent and (often) sexual content, as well as its usually quite biting satire of the current world is also a welcome target for grifters trying to stir up controversy by using moral outrage - or those at the receiving end of the satire being whiny about it.

Chinatown Wars was essentially this. Awesome little game - and easy to emulate using PPSSPP. The PSP version is the best in terms of visuals, the DS original has interesting touch controls for the minigames. The Android port on the other hand isn't as refined.

Custom servers are where it's at, based on what I've heard, but I've never tried those.

It's not better at this.

You will also not find as good of a support of Jellyfin by many devices like Smart TVs, game consoles, etc. Also, it just doesn't work as reliably in many ways, like identifying media, transcoding it and sorting it correctly. It is an y alternative to Plex in the same way that Gimp is an alternative to Photoshop: Superior in terms of licensing, but not as an actual piece of software.

Haben die das ernsthaft nicht getestet vor dem Rollout?

Just don't look too closely at how they are benefiting from and pushing (likely illegal) gambling.

Eh, we are currently experiencing what is called "steam engine time". Tons of people are working on this AI tech at the same time and are sometimes inventing the same tech nearly simultaneously, the same as with steam engines hundreds of years ago. All of the conditions were there: Decades of previous research, new breakthroughs, fast enough hardware and enough capital to fund it all.

Sam Altman is a crook, but if it wasn't for him, someone else would have done a similar thing in his place.

I wrote a comment on a German forum around 16/17 years ago that predicted how game and computer streaming services (Onlive had just been launched, there were also a few non-gaming cloud computing services for home users) could result in personal computing going extinct, because data centers providing these streaming services would buy up components, leaving nothing PCs.

I'm usually very, very wrong with my predictions, but this was my Nostradamus moment, I suppose.

To be fair, without their sports games, they would have gone bankrupt over 30 years ago.

Because as we all know, every problem goes away by selecting a group of people and shooting them.

Relevant saying: Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

People who really care about it are still going to be exposed to games that contain "undeclared" AI assets.

 

Mit ihrem Verhalten im Bundestag hat die Union einen demokratischen Tabubruch begangen. Falsch sind nicht nur die teils rechtswidrigen Forderungen, falsch ist auch die entmenschlichende Sprache von Parteichef Merz.

 

A surprisingly interesting video that taught me some new things about the NES and this era of gaming. Highly recommended!
