Code is the one thing Mixer did better though. Better tech but the service never picked up any significant users/viewer numbers. See: Hipstamatic vs. Instagram. IG won because the social features are what kept people coming back even though Hipstamatic did the technical stuff better 

The infrastructure is going to keep improving as the tech driving streaming improves so this just comes off as a bit of a moot point while you also ignore that plenty of people, especially those in major cities, can take advantage of this right now.

Yep, there were some real attempts to combine this with legit art early on, but after the fad quickly faded after the first month all that was left were people who were easily scammed so don’t care about the actual work and just want to say “look at me I can afford this NFT.”

I’ve played several AAA games, including Destiny 2, that are totally smooth. You’re talking about a different services and your router might have bufferbloat. For local streaming I’ve done that via Steam and AMD and that’s also smooth (though video is still obviously compressed so fidelity isn’t 100% but is better…

I’ve played 20+ hours of Outriders that have been smooth the whole time. It’s not a problem with the service it’s a problem with 1) people’s internet connections 2) bufferbloat on their routers 

While it’s 1080p, it’s a very compressed 1080p, so it’s like how YT videos from a few years ago looked where sure you were given that specific resolution but the quality wasn’t great. AAA games with high graphical fidelity play smoothly (I’m on a gigabit wired connection and don’t have bufferbloat anymore) but they…

This is simply not true and is quite condescending. It’s quite responsive with a proper connection (and ensuring your router isn’t causing bufferbloat)

“By John Walker” didn’t tip you off? He’s only been doing this for a decade or two

We’re dealing with capital G Gamer here. After seeing how they’re replying to you I’m not going to bother with responding to this asshole without any self-awareness any further.

It’s sad you see your responses as some sort of normal and not the extreme viewpoints they really are. Imagine if you said any of this to someone in real life. It would not be taken kindly.

That’s not true, I’m interested in checking out D2 again when I don’t have to pay money to do it. IDK why you’re so incredibly negative about all of this. Not everyone has the same preferences as you.

You mean one of the Japanese producers who we have no idea their exact involvement in making the trailer and what level of involvement they have in what this dialogue sounds like when translated to English? Localization is then another separate team from marketing on top of that

The marketing department not understanding US internet culture means the game will be bad? What a poorly thought out take 

“It’s not just EVGA GeForce RTX 3090s either. Gigabyte cards appear to be in the mix as well.”

Considering this guy is one of the biggest public faces for the game I don’t think that’s a good way to draw that conclusion. While Balrog and others are clearly passionate it wouldn’t be the first time that this has resulted in massive crunch for the people under them. Though, they are taking 5 years per game, so…

What does the “S” in MSRP mean? I’m not saying the price should ever get doubled but I think there’s a fair amount of leeway to respond to market trends that should be allowed. I work for a company where some of our cheaper product lines actually don’t give a reseller much profit at MSRP (like $10 on a several hundred…

Amazon Warehouse is Amazon selling returned items. You seem to be confusing that with 3rd party reselling which is when the seller is listed as someone other than Amazon or “fulfilled by Amazon”

IME it’s something like this. Sometimes you can see the algorithms fight each other and keep rising prices back and forth on stuff that isn’t actually rare. In this case there really is scarcity at least.

Did you look at the article at all? It’s Amazon Warehouse, not a 3rd party, Amazon is doing this.

That’s how I feel, though that 30 hours or whatever it was also felt a bit padded, but I got my $15 worth and put it back on the shelf. I’m also the guy who liked Destiny 2's first year because it was actually a fun game front to back and I didn’t feel the need to play it for 1000 hours. Then after that they changed…
