Yep, his battery factory in Germany got into lots of PR trouble for poisoning ground water and having a three times higher rate of work related accidents then is normal.

I don’t doubt that it looks amazing on a good PC, but it’s also one of the best looking games on the PS5 and runs very well.

I never played Alan Wake through to the end until recently when I got the second one.

Then I played through the first one, followed by Control including the DLCs and then Alan Wake 2. I can’t recommend this enough, it’s an incredible ride.

Well, the UX Design Team has to justify their existence somehow. And if there’s one thing they’re good at, it’s wowing management with snazzy presentations.

Making a snazzy presentation about the necessary overhaul of the data structure of the ingest system architecture is also just generally harder then just showing a flashy, colorful click dummy of the new homepage.

For example this: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/08/08/disney-reportedly-creates-task-force-to-explore-ai-and-cut-costs.html and this: https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-news/sag-aftra-amptp-studios-contract-artifial-intelligence-details-1234877093/ The second article details how due the strike the actor can consent to digital copies of themselves or not and reimbursed for their use but those digital actors are still coming.

Oh I know, that’s what I was refering to.

It doesn’t work like that. It will soon if Disney has their way, with actors selling away their likeness rights for perpetuity with their contracts.

I’m hoping for Sci-Fi and the next Mass Effect.

15 percent for banner ads is actually pretty good.

They are trying to create the narrative that Biden is helping Putin too because Trump so obviously does it. It’s whataboutism.

That game might have had a chance to find its audience but with the surprise success of Palworld it’s now definitely DOA.

Fascists and bad haircuts, name a more iconic combo.

I mean it also fucks up the city if you kill the community pillars.

Michelle Rodriguez might have him beat at this rate!

EDIT: Okay, he’s still ahead by quite a bit, 10 opposed to over 30.

Since the Oblivion and Fallout 3 remasters will be on the Creation Engine, they will probably just be the old games with HD textures more or less. So basically what is already possible with mods.

EDIT: Also, I wonder if the Skyblivion project will finally be finished just to get a cease and desist letter by MS because they do their own remaster of the game.

I agree, and the fact the NPCs have conversations and stories that play around you which are not automatically turning into quests for you to do (sometimes even chiding you for eavesdropping) makes the world feel much more alive and less player-centric.

I still remember playing the first game thinking computer game graphics couldn’t possibly look more realistic.

Baldur’s Gate has some of the best gaming moments in my recebt memory, but those are more character and story moments. On the other Hand, FFXVI has the most epic boss fights I’ve ever played, basically Kaiju beating the shit out of each others.

The AI in black fled into the desert and the wordslinger followed.

I thought it was fake because of the typo, then I remembered that it’s Xitter and they probably don’t have someone proofreading stuff anymore.
