Dunno if it changed anything, but I did a reverse search using Google Images too, but through the option "All Search Engines" with the default ones selected in the plugin Search by Image.

Some other engines from the default selection also found the site through the plugin above.

For finding content creators on alternative services, maybe use Grayjay for Android? It aggregates multiple services into a single, mostly concise UI, and when you do a search, Grayjay can search all services at once. Also recently it added a recommended tab, which should help finding new channels on the go.

Not much preference on the work's medium. Rather, to me, it'd be whichever as long as it's concise and entertaining.

Was planning to play Leisure Suit Larry 4 instead. 😬

Whether it's a rage-click community, a community made for an agenda, or both, I don't know, but in either cases, I wouldn't see as surprising for the mods in such a community to be very trigger-happy. Best you can do, I think, is to block communities and individuals with such a profile, and to recommend others to not engaging (remember to explain why if you do it, btw).

At least Sega and Sony mostly dropped their fearmongering/correlation fallacies ship after the Bleem situation, but companies like Nintendo and Irdeto insist on being setbacks to the market. And with devices more and more closing down on what the user can do, despite being glorified computers, a friend of mine would even say that "console modding is an act of self-defense". Furthermore, if piracy is as rampant as such companies insist on saying, I wonder how much wouldn't be a "problem of service", as GabeN once said, and/or if perhaps they're using correlation to justify limiting what people can do.

I'd have 4 main solutions I can think of, and that can be used together if needed:

• VMs for running Steam and for games that MUST use Steam.
• Emulators, wrappers and source ports for games that allow that, e.g. BSNES for running River Girls Zero, Joiplay / Artemis / EasyRPG / AquariaOSE for games that use compatible engines, etc.
• Having a separated computer you can use 100% offline (requires sideloading games)
• The annoying idea some users give that strays from the original question, but that I think that is valid for once - to get the games from places that openly distribute it DRM free

Alternatively, it could be a way to kill what people look up to by fatigue through fatigue and disappointment through less than ideal re-imaginings.

Mint seems decent all around. No cutting edges nor it's specialized in any areas, but it's a jack of all trades, and rather stable.

Can't remember many either, specially when ignoring characters like Alucard, that don't seem to have the archetype of an older individual, be it emotional or physical, despite the character's actual age.

Now, the few cases of older protagonists I can remember:
One Strike, if you consider games with a simulated old style, has an older playable character among the roster of characters.
And though also not an old game, but heavily inspired by Castlevania 3, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon has an elderly playable character, and his play style reflects that.
And one of Gunbird's playable characters is also an elderly individual, and... (spoiler)

in the joke ending, he even wishes to be young again.

Dunno if that'd be too young, but Gall Gruner from Tales of Heart, which according to the wiki is 45 y.o., does give a strong "older person" impression throughout the game. Final Fantasy IV and V have older protagonists too, and in IV specifically, the character's age plays a role in gameplay.
