In this context “no longer supported” just means “no longer receiving active development support”. Not “doesn’t work with the service”.

So actually no, that’s not what “no longer supported” means here, at all.

Here’s one source.

Apparently elsewhere in the thread people are saying the AI may not be as good.

I remember seeing Half-Life on my friend’s older brother’s computer as a kid, and I never played it. I did play 2, and by the time I considered playing 1, I grabbed Black Mesa because it just looked so much nicer. I enjoyed it for sure. But I also played it before they finished so maybe I should go back and play it again.

Yeah I’m fairly certain exophase just charged for Drastic because they knew it was leagues better than every single open source emulator for Nintendo DS on the Arm platform, and people absolutely would pay for it.

I mean, I guess it’s fair for people to charge for their work. But I do have to wonder if the entire project was novel, Y’know?

If it helps at all, Drastic DS is developed by Exophase, the developer behind the gpSP emulator, which is open source. Drastic is safe, and has for years been the only decent choice for Android as far as performance goes.

That said, from what I’ve just found, they’ve dropped support for Drastic, so pirating it is a good idea regardless.
