They said they closed it as a “cost-cutting measure”… The only costs that increased was that the studio unionized, and unionized studios “cost” more.

Right… They closed it as a “cost-cutting measure” and “not because the studio unionized”. This is where the lawmakers are just letting everyone know that they are garbage to be walked all over. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that “cost-cutting” a studio that just unionized is because they unionized, because a union means they have to start paying their workers their fair share, which means “higher costs” to them, when it should’ve been like that from the start.

The nuance is that Tim doesn’t give a shit what players want, him and his cronies don’t want it because it’s harder to convince someone to play AI slop when they know it’s AI slop before they even try it 😂

Seems fun, might try it later.

Game looks and sounds fun. A different take on the rollercoaster tycoon genre. I will definitely get it

Showing that even a small non-issue use of AI will be detected is a pretty strong incentive for other games to disclose that willingly. Otherwise, why would they admit to it if no one can tell? Morals??? 😂😂😂

Hey you! You’re finally awake!

That’s a good one, I 100% see YouTube complying with those takedown requests if they try.

Will they sue people who wake up from using the alarm clock because these people would be making money (their job) from the effects of this alarm clock (waking up)?

I’m gonna take a wild guess that the games with high budgets that aren’t “selling”, are just not selling “enough” to cover the “costs” of the executives. I guess it wasn’t much of a guess:

and they’re not selling nearly as well as expected," Sweeney said. "Whereas other games are going incredibly strong

Do they think that these other games “going incredibly strong” are making the money they hope to make? They’re probably making much less but managing it much better. The savings are almost infinite when you don’t approve every executive bonus pay package.

“new experience” = new mtx experiences

… “bad for the stability and longevity” of the shareholders. If a publicly traded company tried anything other than “line go up”, it might still be stable and long lasting.

Valorant has skins that can only be acquired in their $80+ bundles too. Following the valorant trend, they know some people will keep paying, no matter the price.

Dang, I might setup a new run with Skyrim Together to make it interesting

Damn. Perfect time to map some of those new worlds and creatures for the Hub👨‍🔬 🦑

An upgrade on that technique is to put the slice in a pan, and pour some water while it’s frying, and put a lid on it to let the steam melt the cheese 👌

Looks fun, never heard of it before.

That “did” cut our costs. Like the first year. The next year that’d be a net increase of 0%, and you can’t have numbers not go up every year

Well, duh! How else will they get ever increasing bonuses? WILL NO ONE THINK OF THE RICH!?

So… Water is wet. Great news.

I hope it would also mean that the multiplayer ones are cross-platform too, that would make it much better.

Mecha and subs and bases… and Multiplayer. The galactic hub community in NMS is awesome

These games are really good! I completed the first game like 4 times, only got platinum the second times and the other times was for the dlc and fun of it. Amazing game!

Sounds fun, I’d give it a try!

Wtf were they thinking? They’re asking for money for a mod that uses actual assets from other Pokemon games… Surprise!

Gotta make them count with unofficial demos: 🏴‍☠️

I don’t think that’s enough time for enough people to play it, to call it one of the “best games of the year”

That looks fun! I wonder if it has multiplayer 🤔. It might based on that trailer

The modder also locked the DLSS3 mod behind a paywall, and players also pirated that 🤣

This article is talking about how Sony’s service is “only a year old”?? What are they talking about? I thought this was about PS plus, which I’m pretty sure I had bought many years ago, not 1 year ago.

There are stretch goals that go all the way to 65 million, and then it stops there. Since it’s obvious those goals were reached a LONG time ago, does anyone know if those are already in the game?

Definitely not even close to parkour. The only jumping in that game is going over obstacles like windows; you can’t even jump.
