Hades 2 is exceptional. Their best game yet.

No but if you “just want to make cool and fun games” you wouldn’t fund Gears 5 or Halo Infinite now would you?

I don’t think that :/ I think his statements and the games he chooses to back sort of prove that ultimately profit is what he is interested in. I don’t blame him for that. But don’t make him out to be what he isn’t. He is a CEO first, being a fan of games falls lower on the list.

Yeah and there are tons of angles and gestures for human subjects that AI just can’t figure out still. Any time I’ve seen a “stunning” AI render it’s some giant FOV painting with no real subject or the subject takes up a 12th of the canvas.

I haven’t played Timberborn but I almost did pick it up on the spring sale, decided to get dotAGE instead to see what all the fuss was about and damn I love it. It’s a lot more of a worker placement game and is a roguelike so if that doesn’t interest you it might not be for you but damn it’s good so far.

If it helps try thinking of it as a “boomer shooter” because of the proliferation of rockets and rocket physics in classic games like Unreal and Quake

This is now the 4th time they’re trying? Give it up already…

I dunno I love Disco Elysium but that company can fuck right off. They wrestled away the IP from the original creators and the sequel was certain to be a confused hack job with no sense of what made the original so special. The game is definitely worth playing but it’s hard to advocate giving them any money when none of it goes to the artists who made it :\

Pretty sure that was a teaser for OD, his upcoming horror project currently in dev. I don’t think Physint is yet being made.

I definitely would love to see a rework of the network stack at large but idk how you’d do it without an insane amount of cooperation among tech giants which seems sort of impossible

They “supported” a bill that they immediately circumvented, yeah. They had no interest in protecting right to repair they just wanted the PR. It should surprise no one that they’re opposed to actual bills that force them to alter their business practices.

These companies tend to own or have long term leases, so either they are stuck paying rent and have to justify the expense or they own an asset that is depreciating in value and they could stop that from happening by spending no money to force their employees back into the office. You have to think about the big money, too. Real estate is a cornerstone asset for big money, many banks and real estate empires hold these enormous office buildings and society trending towards WFH means those buildings are rapidly losing their value.

God I loved that game, my partner loved watching me play it too which is super rare lol

Yeah I’ve been really enjoying the building in single player but I’m beginning to feel like I need to hit up multiplayer to get as much as I can out of the experience as it is now. I wish they would release a road map

Been playing a lot of Valheim and Trailmakers this week to get myself in the mindset for the upcoming Enshrouded EA release

Ah, there’s the rub. Thanks I was having a hard time figuring this one out.

Get it’s ass in gear? Apple has been actively fighting RtR and expandability in every way and only ‘supported’ the last RtR bill in Cali because they already had a circumvention in place using versioning. This is the exact same thing, PR gets to say they’re carbon neutral while they pump the exact same amount of CO2 into the air each year. It’s not just bad practice it’s deceitful.

Yup. That has to be it honestly. I’ve mulled it over a lot and if Musk knows a single thing it’s finance. These moves have all been financial. Twitter, I suspect, was not profitable when he bought it. Rather than admit he did a mistake, he tank it. Tracks with his egomaniacal moves so far.

I’m pretty interested to see the prompt they use for Unreal

Wow well I guess I’ll eat crow. I never thought that was possible to automate but given the use of LLMs I guess it is… Excited to see how it turns out
