E3 2021 will return this June in digital form, and has been backed by Nintendo, Xbox, Capcom, Konami, Ubisoft, Take-Two, Warner Bros and Koch Media.
It's a strong line-up, especially with the two platform holders on-board, however there are some notable absentees, including Sony, EA, Activision Blizzard, Sega, Bandai Namco and Square Enix. The event takes place between June 12 and June 15, so there is still time for other publishers to sign up.

I believe the restriction is there cannot be depicted any beneficial or positive effect of doing drugs, and you can get various physical and mental buffs from them in Disco
So is Fallout out then too?

Bethesda infamously changed entire drugs in Fallout because of Australia (from real stuff like morphine to fictional names).

Is there any game folks like that's like a building/management game but for green spaces instead of paving things over? Playing Subnautica has me wanting to build a gigantic aquarium or something. I feel like Among Ripples is the closest to what I'm looking for but it is also both not out yet and seemed a little too simple.
@durandal4532 there's Megaquarium that has you managing an aquarium. I haven't played it, but the steam reviews seem to be pretty positive.

In Cloud Gardens players must harness the power of nature to overgrow lo-fi scenes of urban decay and manufactured landscapes. By planting seeds in the right places, they’re able to create small overgrown dioramas of brutalism and beauty, salvaging and repurposing hundreds of discarded objects to create unique structures for nature to reclaim.
20200909 Cloud Gardens EA (chill, gardening, nature, lo-fi)
this is kickstarting now, there's a demo for it coming today as well
the style looks kinda cool! reminds me a bit of FLCL and jet grind radio
The demo hits Steam in about 2 hours from this post, every week for the duration of the Kickstarter it will be updated with more content and become a stand-alone side story for the game.

My first computer for whatever reason came with an Awe32 sound card. I kept that thing around until motherboards stopped coming with ISA slots. It had such good sound quality.
Creative have always been a garbage company, they repeatedly removed features from older cards in driver upgrades, so they could push sales of their new cards. Personally I have a nice pair of headphones and a FiiO to drive them- onboard soundcards are way, way better than they used to be, however they mostly can't drive meaty headphones (mine are 250 ohm, so, they need some juice) and over the years I've grown paranoid about coil whine and crosstalk. I've just had too many bad soundcards and onboard cards where I upgraded my headphones and could suddenly hear them kick in under load. No real risk of that when the bit that generates sound is external to the PC itself.

Classification in Australia is also a state matter, so while there's mostly a consensus (if still a restrictive one) since R18 for games came into effect in 2013, Western Australia and South Australia still restrict promotion of R games and it's been that way since 2013.
But yeah, the Fallout example proves how much of a joke our classification board is.

The recent Yu-Gi-Oh games allow you to mess with the developer logo (it's a fish so you can spin it with one stick and the eye with the other) and I always do it without fail when I boot it up.

Fallout was a dumb situation, but understandable.
You’re not allowed to show drug use , particularly with positive effects.
Chems were too close to real world drugs - med-x was even called morphine and had a very obvious intravenous system in view, which immediately was a no-no to the board since there’s already a system in place they don’t like, but then they just straight up used a real world drug.
Seems renaming med-x was enough to convince the board to let it go.
I’m not familiar with Disco Elysium, but I know enough about it that this might be a similar situation, though why they’re picking on consoles might be about age demographics (even if they are very outdated ideas of who plays console games).

a drug is anything that alters the mind
so if a nice symphony creates a calming effect on you it's a drug!

I guess I have lost track of when game releases are, in general.

they always made my system unstable, and they'd stop supporting them really quickly as well
these days I just buy gaming motherboards and use built-in audio
I do miss my old Klipsch 4.1 Promedias for regular speakers, but I have a decent set of Logitech's that get the job done.

didn't Lorne Lanning say once that this whole trailer was essentially a very clever get around through sony's tech NDA?
