What about a Crazy Taxi-style game featuring Radagast?

I love stories like this!

Better to draw from the design of the LotR movies than The Hobbit movies anyways.

Right? That’s a mistake I’d like to make.

Wow!

How? They get to keep the money they got and can go wherever they want

Sony removed Facebook integration from the PS4 and probably all future consoles.

This. I don’t really care about Mixer as a platform, but I am vehemently against Facebook integration with my Xbox. I shut down my FB account nearly two years ago and it’s honestly been a relief to not have to deal with.

The Dark One take you, Matt. Now go bother someone else before I tug my braid at you. 

I have to wonder how long this has been in the works though. I used to use Mixer for streaming things with friends, because of the really good latency, and because originally, you literally just had to press a button in Windows and start streaming, including being able to stream only game audio without getting a PhD…

The sad thing is now nothing will be learned from those revelations. Racism? Contempt for the community? Doesn’t matter, we’re jumping ship soon so nothing needs to be learned! And our staff will now join other teams, ready to continue the circle! It’s as brilliant as it is despicable.

This article is missing a lot of events that immediately preceded this announcement. This includes a huge series of recent accusations of sexual assault against partnered mixer streamers, plus some very problematic, racist events, courtesy of Mixer higher-ups. Apparently this was all over the place over the weekend.

Man, that’s too bad. I guess it wasn’t working out, but Mixer was decent, and competition is good. Same thing that happened to Groove music, which was way better than Spotify (it played music videos for the songs, and was far more full featured).

Going broke after bribing so many streamers to move over?

...partner with Facebook Gaming...

Wait, Facebook Gaming is still a thing? Like, a real thing that people actually use, not just a ghost town of long abandoned Farmvilles?

Kinda seems like they jumped a sinking ship and got rescued by a ship that’s also sinking, just slower.

This is awful, I’ve been using mixer to stream games with my students because it almost doesn’t have delay, besides the fact that you can share your controller it’s amazing.

Wait wasnt it a few months ago that they signed Ninja to Mixer?

This isn’t false advertisement. It’s simple— “fans” were expecting something that was never actually confirmed; all the dashed assumptions that lead to disappointment was basically self-inflicted.

Your perspective on this is very acceptable but if you’re really into LOU and I mean, you really are a fan. There is no possible way you could have thought Joel had a big role in this game. Maybe I pay attention too much but they never once gave me the impression that Joel mattered in this game, not once.
