Yeah I think not.

You’ll be welcomed as refugees tho.

If you’re worth knowing, people naturally keep in touch.

😂

If there was a GPS for doing the right thing, annoying the Cheeto, Elmo and Zuckershit would be waypoints in all of the offered route alternatives.

The more you buy the more you save LMAO

Caveat: it’s wccftech, there’s a non trivial chance they just pulled this story out of their arse.

Edit: thx @SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone for the verification. You da MVP

Maybe Wilds will be a launch game and Nintendo anticipated the release to capitalise on it? Dunno, just playing devil’s advocate.

Johnayyyyy

It always irks me when a US American doesn’t know J. John Barker Jr from Livingston Montana

Someone said something less positive about the game that I identify positively with, so I’m going to contribute 0 to a discussion other than ad hominem because my feelings are hurt and I can’t stand when someone does not like something I like.

Peak internet

Cyberpunk is overrated as a visual experience. If they had spent an iota of the effort they did at using defeat devices to hamper competitor performance vs NVIDIA (PT, etc) into creating better NPCs, the game would be much more immersive. Also the lighting with PT is incredibly grainy and there’s a noticeable illumination lag as soon as you move. FFXII had better NPCs (and writing) than cyberpunk and it’s a relic of the past nowadays. Perhaps gameplay/art>>>>>> pseudo realistic graphics with Hollywood stars

It did. Work well -> not officially dead yet

That’s not impressive at all, especially for F1 which needs responsiveness. Framegen is the next “we spent all the money in marketing and art dep so we can’t afford smart engineers”. Carmack saw the writing on the wall and fucked off

Thank you for stepping in.

I’d add

Saas can compound to higher costs due to the recurring subscription, flexibility comes at a cost, especially when unnecessary features are bundled. Much like you mentioned of salesforce, there’s a limited control on your data (and your customer’s) It can’t be airgapped for critical functions You’re locked in to one vendor in many cases Cost creep when features are bundled during the enshitification phase (salesforce again) It reduces consumer/enterprise options since it’s much more profitable so it conducted to the dissappearance of several perpetual license models for scientific software that has now compounded into billions of tax money being buried for use rather than any kind of useful feature addition.

There’s nothing inherently bad or good about SaaS per se as it can make sense, the problem is it became the racehorse the entire industry bet on and *EVERY *SINGLE *FUCKING *PIECE *OF *SW is now fucking SaaS, from printer SW to games on a flipping phone to access to basic scientific sofware. What could have been a great invention to provide scalability and low upfront cost to enterprises spread like cancer and corrupted the entire software industry. For that, Salesforce has been relegated to their own hell circle.

Kallas only got this position to replace Borrell because she represents the US foreign policy. Everyone is worried about Russian interference while failing to consider how a career politician who never did anything of note and never represented more than the equivalent to a city in terms of population, suddenly is representing the foreign policy of a block of nearly 500M people. Fucking manufactured consent in full force.

Go away ad bot.

For those who are not in the know, the cancer of software as a service was pioneered by salesforce. The devil has created a new circle in hell where salesforce employees are sent not to compete with actual demons because even in hell there are unions.

“While some videogames have recently taken the opportunity to embed social or political agendas within their experiences, it is clear that many players do not appreciate this, and as a result, we have seen a number of high profile releases underperforming commercially during the last year alone,” Hill said. “Our games will always be developed to maximise player enjoyment and commercial success, and as such, we will not be integrating any social or political agencies into these experiences going forward having observed the high risk this can present.”

Talk about journos making a mountain out of a molerat… If it in fact was written by a “journo” and not an AI. To be fair, journo is a stretch, journos have journalism degrees, there’s very little separating “gaming journalists” from bloggers. (Schreier and the like being the exception)

Wait, but we had recently a feature from PMG on YouTube showing how a significant portion of the art of devs like the coalition and Naughty Dog being contracted to sweatshops in Asia. So basically game development budgets are to pay a handful of talented programmers and the friends of the art and writing department while sweatshops do the work. Mega lol, we have bay area entitled shitheads playing ping pong in the office and adoring Elon while costing millions while the people who do the work are getting abused across the planet…

Why use a facsimile when you can use the original
