Does this mean that over half of the signatures were from people not living in the EU?

The Covenant might be religious fanatics but they’re actually capable of working with other religious fanatics, in mutual cooperation.

MAGAs are more like Species 8472, utterly hostile to anything that doesn’t conform to their very narrow and ill informed worldview, even to the point of being hostile to potential allies, thus alienating them.

Surely he knows that Fortnite is itself the clone. He has to know that they didn’t start the battle royale genre they just cutesy it up and monetize the hell out of it.

It was actually a good game when it was in beta and the building mechanics actually had some sort of point. Then they pivoted and went in the battle of royale genre and it became a microtransaction lootbox nightmare.

They’re really aren’t any other good game reviewers. They used to be Nerd Cubed but he doesn’t seem to do game reviews anymore. There’s Sid Alpha, but if he feels particularly frisky he’ll put out a whole two videos a year, so that’s not very helpful.

I’ll say that you state that as fact, but it’s a perception that not everyone shares.

I’ve said this in my own top level comment but it’s worth reiterating here to just make the point. Nobody trusts games media anymore and they don’t trust them because they do things like the above screenshot and engage in articles for access, in real journalism stuff like that is supposed to be disclosed. However the only ones that actually ever seem to bother are YouTubers with integrity.

I think the idea that quality is degrading is not a niche opinion by any stretch of the imagination. It’s basically the majority viewpoint of gamers.

That’s because a lot of the reviews weren’t been read because they weren’t trustworthy, if you reviewed a game poorly (even if it deserved the poor review) the journalist wouldn’t be invited back to review the next game that studio put out or were still the publisher could blacklist you blocking you from potentially dozens of games every year. Nintendo do this all the time.

What skin you want because it may be something that you can change if you are on a different skin but I’ve definitely been able to change it so it’s a browser of my choice.

At least in Europe supermarket seem to have stopped selling games entirely. I think they think everyone’s going digital but I would actually like it physical copy.

So now the only place you can buy physical games is to go into JJB sports (scumbag company, do not buy from them) and go to the small Game section.

So it’s become a self-fulfilling prophecy, no one buys physical anymore because it’s such a pain to buy physical so supermarkets are no longer stocking the games because it isn’t profitable but it isn’t profitable because they’re not stocking them.

All I get is the cookie pop-up. But jokes on them because I’m on the duck duck go browser so they don’t get any tracking info.

At least on Android you can configure whether or not apps use their inbuilt webview or just redirect to the proper browser. That feature probably doesn’t exist on iOS because Apple have opinions about customizability, and it’s that you shouldn’t have any.

Well I’m angry that I didn’t hear the misinformation. No one bothered to tell me.

So now the surprise has been ruined, I already know it’s not true.

I think I’ve turned my PS5 on maybe 30 times since I got it. They just hasn’t been anything released for it that I’ve been interested in basically it’s not been anything released for it.

I think the point is that Chinese review bots are usually trying to dunk on Western games. It seems to be some brilliant new strategy they’ve come up with.

“If we poorly review Western games everyone will buy ours instead”, I’m sure it’ll work brilliantly.

I don’t even really read the reviews I just look at the aggregate score and if it’s overwhelmingly positive I just assume it’s fine.

I probably go and check the reviews only if it said mixed or negative.

There was some military strategy game which was voiced by Will Wheaton. I remember you had to control the characters with voice command, and that was a very new and novel idea and so when playing online people forgot that that meant that you could hear what orders they were giving their units.

The thing is no one ever promised that dwarf fortress would track how much dirt was under your left index finger, it of course does, but no one promised that so when it wasn’t present in the first release of the game no one was surprised or upset.

I don’t understand why he can’t just make a good game and then if he wants to simulate the spin of individual hydrogen atoms he can add that in later.

I have this clever idea for a starship game where you can explore the universe. What I’m going to do to fund development, and it’s totally not a scam, is to sell starships for real money. At first of course you won’t be able to do anything with the ships because I haven’t actually developed the game yet, but in just 10 to 15 to 20 to 30 years there might actually be a game, possibly.

He actually does know how to make good games, but the problems start as soon as he’s put in front of a camera.

Don’t have him going on TV and talking about the game. In fact make it a term of his employment that is not allowed to mention the game at all in any environment. Just take his phone off him basically. If he was just left alone to develop a game it would be fine. All common sense goes out the window as soon as he’s interviewed.

The fact that he knows that people won’t believe him is hilarious. It means he’s fully aware that he has a problem and has never taken any steps to fix it.

He wants to rejuvenate his reputation but the time to do that was about 25-30 years ago. If you make one game and you’ve over promised on it, the very next game has to be your redemption, or you go CDPR route and you fix it, you can’t do it decades later.

Call it Gray and Grey

Really confuse the issue.

I think it’s just the games you play I’ve just had a look at the town to city forum, and it’s fine, as to be expected.

Don’t the developers have moderation capabilities?

The word “only” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

It saves so much time for him to be buying a failed company. It cuts out all the leg work he has to do.

If a company bought EA it would make sense if they were buying it for the IP. Someone who actually knows how to run a business could probably turn it around, but why is he buying it does he have another game studio that I’m not aware of?

They accidentally made a really good Star wars game several years ago, but when they noticed they abandoned it. All the reviews for it were basically along on the lines of, this is really good, but don’t expect any updates.

I don’t understand exactly why but they’re not storing the computed shaders so you constantly have to redo it. But it also shouldn’t be taking that long anyway. It takes the new battlefield maybe 30 seconds to do this, so something weird is going on in the background.

What you on about, there’s always been crappy game releases. There’s a reason “can it run crisis” became a meme. That game is a lot older than 10 years old and it was a unoptimized mess when it was released.

Or I can download, install, and start playing literally any other game in less time.

That wouldn’t protect you either since the risk is fraud not anything digital. None of this would have been able to happen had people not been able to get fraudulent software on his computer. If they can get software on computers that can take malicious actions, then even having it on a virtual machine won’t help you since it still needs to be connected to the internet to be useful.

An active antivirus system would have prevented this. Windows built-in antivirus system is horse dung. I’m pretty sure even the free tier of malware bites would have dealt with this.

I can’t even work out what they were trying to say.

Providing details about their screening process wouldn’t change anything in fact it would make it less secure.

Is not like this sort of thing doesn’t happen on other platforms including the Apple app store.

You get that your phone is a PC right? You’re no more secure if you just do it on your phone.

Your security from banking comes from the fact that the industry is regulated and has fraud protection. Crypto is just as wild west of anything goes nonsense.

This is why services like steam don’t offer bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a method of payment. Because you’re screwed no matter what you do, if you convert it you drive the cost down, if you don’t convert it it stays in this unsecured unverified easy to steal format with insane value fluctuation. You would literally be better off getting paid in roubles.

You lot need to cool it with the Linux versions, there is loads of them and it’s confusing. Why are there so many?

Yeah but this game was in early access for a decade. A decade. That’s giving me star citizen vibes, except in this case the game wasn’t popular.

I’m really not sure why Reddit is on that list. They were already censoring everything anyway all for their IPO.

Oh that Bill Nye.

If I have just bought a 90 series graphics card and a 60 euro game, it sure as hell better than buttery smooth. Since it won’t be ill just save my money thanks.

Have you tried having another kid?

The online mode a not worth it unless your idea of a good time is getting blown up ever 5 seconds
