If anyone here is desperate to suck at the teet of a corporation, it ain’t me.

And yet…

Or contribute to society at all really

I like having the work I’m procrastinating up on my second monitor so that if I happen to feel a 30 second burst of productivity it doesn’t go to waste.

Also Tom and Will are both Scientologists (or were, I don’t keep up) so that part at least cancels out.

I think it’s that 10 years is a long time, it isn’t when it comes to something we love. A truly loved game is a game you’ll want to go back and play 20+ years later. 10 years is when games just start feeling nostalgic.

Markup language vs programming language is similar to the difference between a font and a typeface. Sure, they’re different but to the layperson, they might as well be the same thing.

Clearly yours is because that’s not a normal response to someone asking a reasonable question.

People think you can slap on an “in development” sticker to anything and absolve it of all criticism.

It’s sad that people think like this

Maybe when StarCraft 2 came out or the first couple years of Overwatch. Although in hindsight they were doing some pretty un-legendary things behind the scenes.

This world is an illusion, exile.

There are still good AAA releases, it’s just that 95% of AAA games are not worth the price.

I would argue the old business model still works, it’s just that most AAA games studios don’t follow that model anymore. Back in the day, a full priced game didn’t have DLC or MTX, was an actual complete game, and focused more on the fun than the profit making. Games tried new ideas, they innovated instead of chasing whatever fad is popular at the time. It’s the modern AAA game business model that is the problem and doesn’t work anymore.

That’s false, the mistakes are part of the experience.

Halls of torment is really fun. Not only can you keep unlocking stuff for a long time, you can run multiple different builds on each character to keep things interesting.

It wouldn’t feel right if it didn’t have the exact same bugs as the last 4 Bethesda releases.

Damn, and I i was actually excited for this game. Oh well, maybe in a couple years they’ll remove it and then it can be seen a viable product.

What do you mean, AAA games expand upon the formula…

When small indie studios create unique smash hits and then all we see from AAA studios are clones of that game with more monetization. If that’s not capitalist innovation, then I don’t know what is.

Coldest would be -60C, warmest about 40C. Funnily enough, these were in the same place (Canada).
