At least they made an effort.
But those city picture backgrounds are not gonna cut it.
This needs some effort and a good vision like mario party.
And colors and stylising like mario party.
Mario party also had those well designed boards like a giant rooms where the characters hop around in like toy figures and trigger minigames minigames with an animation involving some object that is part of the level.

Dumping shit in AppData is such an archaic practice, why do so many programs still insist on using it? Lack of understanding on the programmer's part? Notepad++ used to give you the option not to use AppData, now it grays out the option and forces you to use the AppData folder.

Why do developers always insist on placing game files in directories outside the games installation directory? It's going to take objectively longer to fetch than if the files were stored in the game directory, also who still actually has their files and their operating system on the same storage device?

Write permissions
It might not look like it, but winblows has historically always been a huge, if not THE, OS for the workplace. Chalk it up to marketing, people not knowing any better, or whatever. The case being, long before PC gaming took off, suits needed their wageslaves not to be able to "accidentally" wipe the program folder while at the same time storing per-user program profile data (db passwords, certificates, and the like).

Even that excuse is stupid, how the fuck could the user have installed the software in the first place if they didn't have read access to the install directory, do they think someone without read access is going to have write access? Why if that's the case, would the developer assume the user would have read, let alone write, access to the installers user folder to access the AppData folder? Both of these scenarios combined form a paradox which shows the obvious retardation of early software developers.

I worked as an intern in an office once.
Didn't do much, and nobody expected me to, it was just a temp job I used to make connections and find my current actual proper job.
During that time, I did find one system (not sure if it was just a server, an actual workstation or whatever) were normal users had write permissions, but not read.
I inquired about it (to kinda impress people, failed effort, since nobody knew what the fuck I was talking about) and the only reason I could find was a proprietary software, custom made for that office by an external firm ( 3 pajeets and a chink overlooking them, not even joking) needed it to be set up that way.
It was some sort of notes/parcel tracking software for the sales department. They could use their program as a client, the client would offload the info at the end of the day or at the press of a button, but they could never acess that information again without the SysAdmin permission.
So I had the resident tech guy explain to me how secure this was, because people could create info, but if they fucked up an order, they couldn't go back, edit it and then blame UPS or whatever delivery company they were hiring (something that apparently happened enough times to warrant this shit).
So I asked him what would happen if I overwritten the files, and he laughed it off saying the program they use wouldn't allow them to.
I wrote a simple batch, used the program to create a file and then run the batch to overwrite with a file filled with White space.
I asked him what would happen if I batched something to overwrite ALL FILES currently there like this, and what would happen if I set it to do so cyclically, or made a fucking "windows service" do it.
Do you know what happens when you point out security flaws like this?
The resident tech guy has talk with a superior (who doesn't know jack shit about computers) and convinces him that you're a "troublemaker", and you're always "inventing and testing dangerous shit".
Worked out for me, got moved to help another department (production) folks who actually want shit done with minimal paperwork, and that's where I got an actual connection to get me a proper job.
Please note: I actually know very little about computers, just the basics I picked up fixing them for vidya and the little I've talked with programmers online.
Yet a complete moron such as myself could find a server they had with a backup of emails from EVERY EMPLOYEE ON SITE for the last three years.
Or that time they wanted to install a 12 year old managing software in a workstation, and the anti-virus kept shutting the install down (because I was installing fucking abandon ware with a shitty antivirus present)
>"Hey chief, need to turn off that anti-virus"
<"You mad? You gotta be doing something wrong, the antivirus can't be wrong!"
I shut up about it, turned off the anti-virus (something they believed I could not do anyway), installed the damn thing, turned it on again, and reported a success.
Tech field, especially computers has this fame where people got into it because it's "they future" and it pays well.
In reality, it pays like shit unless you manage to get to be the "resident tech guy" in which your job is safe, but more often than not, the person getting it is a complete fuckwit: not knowing how to do your job isn't bad. Not knowing how to do it and refusing to learn/research? THAT is terrible.

Realistically, these anecdotes have no place in the argument. A game developer shouldn't be so concerned with something like this since none of their software should even be anywhere near a system that would actually use permissions to this level. Even if it is the operating system would handle the permissions if the IT Manager had even a single brain cell and didn't give standard users access to the admin account. Also, please share how the fuck you landed a job like that? I have a masters and I can't even get an entry level IT position where I am.

The Tech Department consisted of:
>One guy that learned programming when PASCAL was a thing
>One guy that thinks web interfaces are THE SHIT, MAN, SO FUKKEN KEWL
>two bitches answering phones all day, forwarding requests to the other two guys
Keep in mind, an average day of work consisted of these two bickering about their ex-husbands (always a good sign), the older guy raving about how "Internet-of-Things" is fucking amazing, the future and Industry 4.0 is the best shit since sliced bread, and the web-interfaces guy having to put off with this shit.
They also had a young kid on contract learning (knew more than he let on, didn't give a shit to show it because fuck it, noone pays him for that) and a sub-contracted guy that actually KNEW his shit, but was subcontract to do, you guess it, web-interfaces that the first two insisted were awesome.
As persons to hang around, they were all fantastic people who didn't give me shit and had some funny jokes. On a technical level, everything was so awfull I though for a moment I was working at microsoft.

>Also, please share how the fuck you landed a job like that?
It was a factory. Industrial machines have these things called "PLC": programmable logic controllers.
Historically, they're more suited for electricians. They're programmed in LADDER, a graphic language that uses "contacts" and "coils" to display simple logic operations in a way that even an electrician can understand (an electrician doesn't know what an OR gate his, but he understands shunting two contacts connected to a coil of wire).
I graduated in Electrotechnical Engineering, so I'm somewhate suited to work with those things. They needed someone to perform backups of the programming in them (after a few years, depending on use and abuse, there's a chance they might die out) and I fit the bill.
Truth be told: I did an absolute shit job at it because I only knew how to work with one manufacturer. I winged it for the rest. One guy working in the Production department did notice I was very much happy when I was looking at the PLC's code, figuring out how they worked and what not. He had a contact on a company that actually builds these machines and programs them. They had an opening and I took it.
If you have a masters in any field related to programming, I'm afraid to tell you: you're shit out of luck. That subcontracted guy? He was sub-contracted for 5 years before I was there.
Noone wants to hire someone like him, even if he works the full 8 hours per day. It's bizarre as fuck, having a resident programmer can do wonders, but it's one area where the worth of what you can do isn't really appreciated. I feel for you man, the only place I've seen your sort work at is free-lancing companies.
You get a project, work you ass off for months, get paid really poorly, no benefits and still risk having the client rant off because "this button is grey, not light-dark" or "why can't I right-click this thing?"
You ask me, everyone should take programminig in HighSchool. Would teach them a thing or two, even if they don't pursue it anymore after that.

And for prospecting anons thinking "gee wiz, PLC's sound like a great job", yes, it is, there's very little people working with them nowdays, but for the love of anything you hold dear, don't let ANYONE in your workplace know you program in C#, Perl, Python or even fucking Java in your spare time as an hobby.
When you're between projects, they'll ask you to code miscellaneous shit for them.
When it was Visual Basic shit, it was sort of tolerable, but the moment they get you working on an app for their fucking phones, the moment you have to put up with Android fuckery, googles shit references and codes and the mountains AND MOUNTAINS of pajeet replies of "just copy this and tweak it, lmao", you'll wish the second amendment covered suicide.

The user typically doesn't install the software. That falls to the company's resident tech support dept.
>Why if that's the case, would the developer assume the user would have read, let alone write, access to the installers user folder to access the AppData folder
Because the AppData concept didn't exist before XP, and a lot of Win9X programs who wrote to the install dir needed to continue working in XP if it was to be adopted by businesses within this solar cycle. So M$ kicked that can down the road by continuing to allow reads and writes to the install dir, but making a special "VirtualStore/YOURPROGRAMNAME" folder inside AppData that the install dir is essentially symlinked to.
>Both of these scenarios combined form a paradox which shows the obvious retardation of early software developers.
