Bummer. I used to work for a Sega Studio, and Creative Assembly was always held up as the star pupil. I met a couple folks from there to do a joint panel at an event, really enjoyed hanging out for them. I even fondly remember their marketing peeps, who defied all negative prejudices I had for the people from that…

Harmon definitely talking about Roiland leveraging his position to try and pick up minors in DMs.

its definitely an allegory with artsy fartsy people doing some swashbuckling. but ask marvel and sony if gwen is CIS or not and know the answer isn’t going to light anyone’s world on fire.

at what point is this chatbot is contaminated by its interactions and morphs into a conservative american’s idea of jesus. they already got a blond white guy there.

Most people who care wouldn’t be able to tell if they turned their fps counters off, either. Largely this trend is driven by folks deriving a sense of satisfaction (& in some cases superiority) of seeing a number climb higher.

I mostly agree but want to point out the 60fps thirst is from a vocal niche & not 'consumers.' 

Its not poor performance. 30 fps is a fine standard. 60 fps is a waste of processing resources & thats understood by people who actually make games. 

I do it while walking out doors usually, not inside. I just hate headphones, i have a complex about using buds or headphones.

Soon we shall rule and make everyone listen to their podcasts from their Phone speakers

and people laughed at me for outputting my sound from built-in monitor speakers but guess who is laughing from his perfectly shaped skull now.

Americans struggle with the abstract and allegory. While i don’t doubt this a an intentional trans allegory, cynically, i don’t think marvel or sony will let gwen be anything else but cis.

Trans and trans icon are not the same thing. Trans icons are people or characters trans people might identify or admire despite not being trans. Lady Gaga for example might be considered a trans icon even though she is she/her. In Links case, they identity with the androgyny of his character design.

Just an example of how futile and stupid this culture war conservatives insist on fighting is. This game has already sold tens of millions of copies.

I just skipped the first set of rails by building a shelf and put my vehicle directly onto the second set of rails (boarding it with ascend from my shelf directly below

Ah, i was kind of boring with the final rails in this one. I basically built my vehicle with fans (with a fin to guide it on the rails) and then skipped the first set of rails by building a shelf to stand and hoist my vehicle on to the final set of rails (boarding it with ascend, because my shelf was directly below…

game companies becoming sports league is wack. 

i saw some former colleagues jump into this yesterday and decided to not join in on the off-chance my handsome mug got aggregated into some Kotaku article. HAH!

well we’ll see what difference a union makes for the writer strike. translation has the disadvantage of being a work-for-hire sort of thing, as well.

I tend to think as long as labour is involved, labour will adjust how they are billed. People charging premiums around time spent, % changed. I wouldn’t be surprised if rates for re-writes end up much higher than new scripts. An analogue i can think of, in voice acting it is cheaper to re-record an actor for the same…

“given how mediocre the standards are for NPC dialogue and quest texts in games, it’s absolutely inevitable that the majority of such content will be AI-written in the near future”
I am debunking this. An AI cannot handle all the parameter’s, variations of this. It all dissolves into generic gobbly goop where it stars…
