I think you mean they need to play more.

I think just about everyone has taken the low road and made some unfair insults to another person in their lives. I’ve definitely been on both sides of that. Fortunately, it’s mainly been between friends where you have the opportunity to resolve it and/or be more understanding. What I find stupifying about these…

Yeah, I mean we all know the main reason is that. I’m just saying the optics are contradictory and you’d figure that’s something they’d try to prevent. Since they didn’t though it actually makes their ‘fight for developers’ appear even more disingenuous.

I interviewed with Riot back in May/June of 2021 and they were making it mandatory to move on location and come into the office. I wasn’t against it as I also am not a fan of purely remote work, but I do remember raising a brow at the timing.

I don’t understand why they don’t change it up a little bit to avoid such blatant plagerism. It’s so frustrating to see Epic fighting against Apple in favor of developers on one front and then still allowing this kind of lazy junk on the other. Like now you have to pay lawyers to defend it too. Why even go there??

It shouldn’t ever be the case, but this is so bad it should’ve blocked the release of the game.

*Enter beer, liquor, and wine*

No one wants a gimp card. That’s why they aren’t selling. It’s no surprise that a group of people that have money to make from it made a threat to the company. The only people truly affected have been average consumers because, aside from supply chain issues, miners have been buying them in bulk.

I don’t think I’ve ever considered the meaning. I’m pretty sure my brain just went with “jif” the first time I saw it and that’s that. I’d imagine for most it’s this way.

Actually disrespectful.

Well you know with the war going on...and gas prices skyrocketing...it’s supposed to be a sim right?

I can’t believe how brazen companies are getting with these business models after so much negative reception. I figured Halo Infinite’s botch of the model would make companies rethink or refine.

“Tuning and maintaining your car also cost credits.”

Guess not. A sad state for AAA gaming.

The ignorance!

I think the intention is to make these challenges theoretically possible so that it can be written somewhere that “You don’t need to buy anything”. This game and others have demonstrated that implementing frustration into the game is how to get players to buy sh*t.

Perfect thumbnail for this interview.

“Makes me wonder what the dev would say to any women who plays this game...”

He would obviously go up to her confidently (b/c he’s not wearing a mask) and invite her to contribute her opinion on the manner, which would obviously be “Of course women love men without masks!”. Then he would say “See?”, get her number, and…

I think the idea of spending time at strip clubs or anything similar ‘when it’s appropriate’ reveals how bizarre are thoughts on sex work and the separation of work from life are. To defend sex workers, an industry that contributes to pornography and all of its side effects, but still criticize employees that go to…

“which is also side effect of a materialistic, yet wealthy nation too decadent to see the relations with the world from within their sanctuaries.”

I think this is more of the phenomenon of physical disconnect. The US, is quite literally, disconnected from the Eastern part of the world. Other countries may still be…
