The point is that audiences keep interpreting his films as puzzles. One bothers to explain it.

“My narratives...[are] not a puzzle to be unpacked,” he continued.

I’m down for coop. I’m honestly not sure how they can top the first game — the spin-off was just okay -- but playing with a friend would help.

It is possible that the remake trilogy is some kind of alternate timeline

Microsoft pitched the agreement before the CMA had even chimed in. It’s kind of like saying I was “forced” to pay $15 for a movie ticket when I had an intention of paying $15 for the movie ticket all along. It’s the price of entry, after all.

Fun fact: unlike every other news outlet and the CIA, Wikileaks has never released a lie.

They didn’t formally agree to do keep CoD multiplatform until they were forced to

I own an Xbox Series X. I subscribe to GamePass Ultimate. I don’t mind.

Do they really think they can just fold her in to the cast?

Go to your profile on Bandcamp via web browser. Download all the music you’ve purchased — you can select MP3, FLAC, etc. It’ll come in a zip file. Put the files wherever you want — laptop, desktop, thumb drive, email it to yourself. Burn it to CD if you still have a burner. I personally keep it both on an HDD, and upl…

“(If) buying isn’t owning” was not said by Ubisoft, it’s a much older response to the idea that digital goods can be taken from us at any time, with DRM that prevents any way of us to actually preserve or properly “own” such digital goods, e.g. my example of Steam games.

Ah, you did not finish reading my comment then — much like your CDs did not disappear, my mp3s did not disappear. The example doesn’t work well.

When buying isn’t owning, pirating isn’t stealing.

Like the totally autonomous robot that was originally just a guy in spandex, and now is just an animatronic puppet being controlled by a human just off camera.

A guy who has a long, substantiated record of just making shit up is probably, again, making shit up.

I feel the reason might be much dumber than following the money. I think tech bros would’ve supported Ross Perot in the 90s. They just look at themselves as “thinking outside the box,” and so reflexively go with whatever candidate is not the mainstream pick in order to maintain their self-delusion that they’re unique.…

Tenet was several months after peak COVID fears. Both Tenet and Dune Part 1 had simultaneous releases on streaming. And frankly, more people talk about Dune today than Tenet. Granted, being based on a franchise helps. My point isn’t that one film is necessarily better than another — I found Dune Part 1 to be underwhelm…

I don’t get why you feel games need to have a “impact” at all.

Look, I’m a Rock Band fan. The news about Rock Band 4 ending its weekly DLC hits me hard. But I’m also cognizant of the fact that the vast majority of people would be surprised to learn that Rock Band 4 DLC was still coming out. It’s a bubble, mate. A bubble I love, but a bubble nonetheless.

Seems like every surprise hit on Steam is just another multiplayer survival game. I see Enshrouded is suddenly popular, and it... it’s a fantasy surivval game. Not to be confused with the pokemon survival game. Which isn’t to be confused with the zombie surivival game that turned out not to be much of a game at all.…
