It was that VoLTE wasn’t supported for that particular model of phone. VoLTE is very much the norm here although I’m unsure if every phone uses it now. My flip phone probably doesn’t, but it’s hard to tell with how stripped down its manufacturer-customized Android is.

I held onto my Sony XZ2c for months after calls stopped working on it after the US 3G shutdown. I got a flip phone for making calls.

The worst part? The XZ2c has VoLTE calling capability, but all the US phone companies refuse to support it on their networks.

Now I’m begrudgingly using a OnePlus 6 and praying that I don’t drop the massive thing >:[

Basically, even if we want to use aging tech we’re held hostage by telecom companies, who obviously would prefer to rope people into new devices on credit plans. ARGH

don’t even need to be sentient. just mount a rail gun on a Spot and then we’re off to the Skynet races 🤖

Jak II (and probably the others after it but I haven’t gotten to them yet so can’t say for sure). Not Precursor Legacy though, it’s perfect and nobody can tell me otherwise
Edit: jk I forgot Precursor Legacy didn’t have subtitles, it could do with those.

Half Life 1 (and 2 at this point, tbh) Actually fuck it let’s just re-do all the Valve Source FPS. TAKE MY MONEY

Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 would be an awesome candidate for an AOE Definitive Edition style remake where the mechanics are virtually unchanged but it’s given a 3D graphics overhaul with unfixed zoom levels

Tron 2.0 but it’ll never happen because it’s a split timeline from Tron Legacy :[
