They don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Mass Effect worked.

Same. Dunno why the downvotes.

Oh good this is here, I don’t have to post it.

Hell yeah! Thank you. I would have but was on spotty mobile

When no actual people are named no one has to take any responsibility.

Just keep saying nebulous ideas like a company be the problem and then everyone walks away.

Start blaming the people involved

Name the CEO. Image too, or wiki link.

Let’s stop letting scummy people hide behind brands and companies.

Astro bot and balatro make sense. I hope balatro wins.

Black myth is Chinese propaganda or psyOp. Has to be. People did not seem to care for this game?

Erd is dlc which is BS. It will probably win cus these games are cult status.

FF7 is weird. 1 part of many in a remake. People seemed pretty mid about it?

Metaphor felt weird in the demo. These also reach cult status. I could see this winning though with the added recency bias.

Make a torrent, best backup.

If it didn’t have an official demo, I “acquired” it before I bought it.

I don’t buy games unless I know it will be something I like.

I’ll bite. I hate billionaires. Let’s check this out.

Things that hurt indie devs in this article:

• Lack of available talent
• Burnout
• Lack of upfront funding (before a game is ever released)
• Generally bad economy post COVID
• Actual predatory exclusive tactics from epic or gamepad
• The nebulous idea that the entire industry and fans need a culture change

Things not cited in this article as a problem:

• Steam in any capacity. Directly or implied

Now find more metal by a band Kentucky

In before next week’s article that the Montreal office is permanently closed and all workers let go.

Was that dev me?

When it was first made available to the public I played about an hour or 2 and then stopped so I didn’t spill the game. My one big take away was that I really hated all the companions, especially sheart.

I’m glad how well written they all ended up.

There fact that I have been told seriously, more than 0 times, to work more slowly in my life is insane to me.

Yayayyayayayyayayayay. I’m excited. The Fable games never felt truly finished and fully fleshed out, but I loved them all and played them so much.

Or Jack Black. I love him, but this dumb Hollywood trend of hiring Jack for anything comical is absurd.

There kinda isn’t really any definitive science that indicates a specific frame rate that the eye can perceive.

There are studies however that show ranges from 30 to 90hz, and studies that show that human perception can detect flicker at up to 500hz even.

The issue is that nothing that happens in the real world is synchronized with what you perceive. So filling in with more Hz means there are more chance for you to actually perceive the thing.

To complicate matters further, our brains do a lot of filling in for us, and our eyes and brains can still perceive things you aren’t consciously perceiving yourself. So again more frames is always nice.

I was booed out of 2 guilds for suggesting the grind is dumb and that real content is better.

Once in WoW years after release when they introduced dailies. Which are a crock.

And once in Conan Exiles where the server owner kept making content, a lot of being amazing, but half of it being pointless getting dailies.

I was kind of shocked at how many people love dailies for some reason. Easy brain shut off tasks I guess?

A thousand times yes.

I’m so sad they stopped making those. 3 and 4 had SO MUCH character and style!

Surely not, right? RIGHT?!
