Reviews

Variety reviewed is as "the script proves unable to make Di Di’s journey interesting or credible, while the uncharismatic Pataky is unconvincing as star material."[4]

gollark: Oh, Lua libraries.
gollark: There are good libraries available, so that doesn't sound very problematic.
gollark: It is not as if everything has to be a full node in a distributed one.
gollark: <@114827439070248961> You could just use multiple out of game servers.
gollark: Given that it is not decentralised and just stores a transaction log on a central server I'd hesitate to call krist a cryptocurrency.
