Nah.

I think the advent of 4K has crippled the evolutionary prospects for gaming in this upcoming generation. Imagine if you will that the mid-cycle refresh (which was focused on 4K gaming) never happened and that these 10.28 and 12 teraflop consoles from Sony and Microsoft respectively were going to be focused on 1080p.…

“While recognising the need to retain top executives”

This isn’t a need. It’s the biggest lie in the corporate universe, in fact.

The difference between a “top executive” and “other executives” is literally a lottery pull. The vast majority of them are staggeringly incompetent or ineffectual people that just ride…

Yep. And it’s truly incredible how many people seem to take his shit so seriously and so personally.

It feels like the world population on average is just getting dumber, meaner, shittier. Or probably we’ve always been this way, but we didn’t have the internet around to bring all the troglodytes together.

surely no noble western developers would stoop to such disgusting tactics

I’ve been plenty tough on parts of my body. Well really just a couple parts, and it was more “tough love” than anything.

I suspect this is more of his attempts to look ‘tough’ on China. The problem being, the moron doesn’t understand that China outright owns roughly half the US economy. You can’t be ‘tough’ on someone who owns half your body. The only thing you accomplish is punishing yourself.

My Steam account is coming up to 17 years old next month, and my collection there is just under 1000 games. I’m certain I’d have lost 75% of that at some point through half a dozen apartment moves and a brief period of homelessness.

What happens when developers finally get tired of the treatment and pursue more lucrative opportunities elsewhere?

Because people are really really desperate to be a part of “the industry” and are willing to make damn near any sacrifice to get their foot in the door.

I’ve been playing Classic since day one and I raid every week since day one, and sadly you are not mistaken. I play on Herod, most low level zones are ghost towns because modern gamers have e-sport’d the shit out of Classic. It’s why all the dungeons and raids are a cakewalk and a guild’s skill is defined by how fast…

You put that quite concisely and I exactly agree. I thought it was just me, and that I was being unreasonable despising the last minute game of chicken Sony and Microsoft are playing. Lack of E3 being a huge event for reveals has strung out rumor hype for many months as well, since big reveals more often happen any…

I miss, specifically, the E3 of my youth, when I used to learn everything that happened from a magazine. Oh, those june issues, full of announcements, promises and dreams.

Does Ubisoft has a development deal with Netflix?

You think that’s bad?!

It’s a personality cult.

True, probably because I don’t want to believe I was duped out of $40 lol

I threw $140 at this for the Kickstarter. I view it as one of those hopeful buried treasures where I come back to it in ten years and it’s something amazing.
