Evolve tried to do too many different things - it was 1v4 instead of 4v4, had a whole leveling system and skill trees, character classes and loadouts, etc.

That’s a fair point, but you’re expecting every character to be acting 100% rationally and that’s just not how good storytelling works. In real life, people forget things and fail to make connections. In storytelling, this is often used selectively to advance the narrative but that doesn’t necessarily make it…

Too late to edit this in but there are also a lot of parallels between how the northers are acting toward Dany and how the Night’s Watch were acting toward Jon before they staged a coup 

My money’s on Sam either trying to assassinate Dany or start a rebellion.

and thus Jon should be questioning what it means that he can.

Dragonstone was a tropical (and likely uninhabited aside from Dany’s crew) island and Meereen was an insanely rich commerce hub, though.

Flight’s supposed to begin sometime this month, and there’s only 2 weeks of April left... Soon, comrade.

Yes, and in that time the cost of development has increased by several orders of magnitude as hardware improves and gamers demand more. Fortnite’s dev team is at least a hundred people, constantly cranking out content. The average game dev salary in the US is $83,060, which means they need to bring in roughly $8.5…

PUBG uses a F2P business model with an initial buy-in, though - people who buy the Season Pass and other microtransactions are funding their continued content updates.

m8, I literally majored in UX/UI design. I know what a dark pattern is, and this ain’t it. If you think I’m naive, it’s because there’s some strong Dunning-Kruger at play here and you only have a fraction of the full story. The YouTuber you are getting your information from also has an ulterior motive - he is…

To an extent you’re right, but I think you’re overplaying just how much we know about these things and our capacity to manipulate behaviour through UX.

Sure but that’s not some psychological trick, and certainly not inherently evil — it’s just how they’ve tied their progression system into their business model.

That does make some sense. So the issue is with the scaling, not the display itself - it’s a problem unique to playing old games on technology they weren’t designed for.

Literally every other competitive esport in existence manages fine with regular monitors.

This is fucking hilarious, Smash is full of petulant manbabies. Perfect example of why nobody takes that community seriously.

This is good for Bitcoin.

Bought it as soon as I saw the notification and played a few runs before bed, game’s fantastic.

Wasn’t, like, the whole point of District 9 that it was an introspective movie about apartheid? What’s next, a Schindler’s List Battle Royale game?
