I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone say that upscaling OPTIONS are bad but I’m worried about games like monster hunter where upscaling and frame gen is used to make the game playable in most cases.

Didn’t even know this existed lol, crazy how decentralised the game industry has become now that e3 is gone. There’s no official “time to announce your games” part of the year anymore.

Don’t really care that it’s genAI but It’s really weird that the only part of the trailer that’s obviously gameplay is the first few seconds…

I’ve thought about this before, I think it’s because the devs/publishers want to have their cake and eat it. They release a new game every year at full price for that up front cash then they nickle and dime you all year and then reset with a new full price game.

I’m pretty sure the amount of money EA makes from FIFA or Activision makes from COD would go down dramatically if they just had a single live service game.

My understanding was that this little 6 man team did work on the game in an r&d role, testing stuff for levels, characters etc. So they weren’t a useless team, but I doubt they were as big a deal as the media is making out.

I’m going to preorder monster hunter wilds, I’ll do it the day before and pre-download it. Does that count?

I hope they can do it, I’ve always adored monster hunter but I remember playing DD2 on release and the game struggled at 30fps, default settings. The game has gotten better by some amount since then, I haven’t been back to that game though.

I assume RE engine was mandated from on high but if DD2 and MH6 struggle with performance, I’m assuming that the next open world game from Capcom will probably run on UE5 like the rest of the industry.

Sony owns Bloodborne, Miyazaki can only be as involved as Sony allows. No way an exec doesn’t know this lol.

If it wasn’t for the game awards section at the top of the page I would’ve dismissed this as “they bought the domain from someone else” wtf it looks like some kinda cat fashion webstore.

Maybe that was a website template? IDK how to explain this lol.

Currently the game doesn’t have any AI disclosures on its steam page. I don’t know if you need to do Crypto disclosure. It doesn’t look like there is any info about this game other than a pair of CG/“in engine” trailers

I could swear it was higher earlier this year/last year but looking at the survey results, Linux climbed to 2% this survey. I think maybe that half remembered headline was something like “Linux is higher than MacOS at 1.5% market share” or something like that instead?

Ahh! Of course! The problem with Concord was the price! That’s why no one cared during its free beta weekend!

My phone app(also google phone app) is only 91mb’s, Google Pixel 6, everything up to date.

Man I just realised there’s a Gemini button! I never actually open the app, I use shortcuts from notifications! Good on google letting users opt out of something basically no one wants!

The AOSP is a huge success and phones are really only the tip of the iceberg, android runs everywhere and is basically responsible for the mainstream adoption of “smart” devices.

It’s a small OS that runs on basically anything and you can stick it on most computers regardless of how strange the hardware setup is.

Is it perfect? No, as a project android is basically maintained by Google alone and Google obviously doesn’t think it’s perfect, or fuschia wouldn’t exist.

I’m not sure this is a fair comparison, since this is only coming to RCS and not SMS my (completely unsubstantiated) guess would be that this is a message protocol issue.

On the other hand Signal is an encrypted internet messaging service and editing internet messages has been easy for everyone not named twitter for years.

The title is a bit misleading, the summary on the article makes it clear that YouTube kids functionality is being rolled into the main app rather than being its own thing.

I’ve got a pixel 6, never had any issues with it. I would recommend all the usual suspects: turn it off and on, update, factory reset.

If you are up to date I remember people complaining that the latest update broke some stuff for them, that might be your issue?
