Goes to show that at the end of the day, the little individuals always lose out when huge organizations do pretty much anything 

They’re a private company, they can totally tell people of ‘other movements’ to shove it. No one has a right to free speech in any Blizzard tournaments, which works both ways. They could openly endorse human rights policies and promote an ethically run HK, while banning people you supposedly believe will appear to…

Looter shooters? If you want pure gunplay and fun and are okay with a lack of anything else, I heavily suggest Earth Defense Force 5. Not ‘technically’ a looter shooter but there’s tons of guns to collect anyway. You could always go back and play any Borderlands game, they’re all fine. I’ve also heard Warframe is good…

If all you’re looking at are major releases by out of touch developers with investors to please, you’re seriously harming your potential enjoyment for games. There are hundreds of releases a year in various levels of corporatism. Get out of the mega corporation grind and play a small project by someone who’s still…

I feel kinda bad for the dead guy’s name being used this way. Honestly, if you look at the progression of the games, the deviation from innovation and a spirit for development kinda coincides with his death. I can’t guarantee that’s connected, but it’s possible that he stopped inspiring Ubisoft to care. 

Businesses tend towards corporatism and bending to the will of their investors over ethics the longer they run and the more profitable they get. Blizzard’s leaders who cared about the ethics and the vision of the company are long gone.

Hm it’s almost like having crappy business ethics comes back to bite you when you alienate your own community 

While possible, it’s almost guaranteed Nintendo has had someone working on a way to legally justify taking this down for years now. Probably an intern level project though since they aren’t getting anywhere.

I’m pretty sure your first sentence contradicts your own point. I don’t watch movies, and I don’t engage with media that has many famous celebrities in it. I know very little about Tom Cruise, but I also know that a lot of people know a lot about him and I know he’s famous in a specific industry. That seems like it’s…

I use social engineering constantly and have been thoroughly trained on using it. I work in healthcare. You gotta do what works 

I only know most “celebrity” actors as people who are in some media I never watched, because I don’t watch movies or TV ever.

It’s pretty funny to see what someone with relatively low knowledge of Star Wars thinks of these thing. It does speak to how some of the stuff is kinda iffy and not very identifiable though.

As far as I know, they all need a Rockstar Social club account thing, which technically means they all have DRM. The launcher itself is sorta a version of DRM anyway since it’s company specific. 

Sometimes, and often it’s more of a collector type item than intended to actually be used. Even if there is a disc, it usually only installs the base version of the game and then you have to spend a day waiting for it to update to the correct version anyway. 

They’d need to update everything so it has a bunch of currencies and microtransactions. Their profit goals are too in the clouds for that to make sense now

They changed to having a lot of loot because they can sell more items to people if there are more items and more grind to convince you to skip playing the game.

Has Nintendo started understanding what people want in online communities? Has Nintendo learned how to make a functional online experience for gamers that’s not marred by absurd policies and weird decisions?

Hospital tech evolves. Slowly and decades behind everyone else, but it does. 

Pagers are still kinda useful in hospitals since they usually still work even in areas where you don’t get signal, but even that’s rapidly becoming obsolete since a lot of cell phones can still text/call over wifi, which most hospitals have now. 

Skylines is one of my favorite sim games ever, but especially early on I definitely got overwhelmed with how many systems they wanted me to manage. I think they did it sliiightly better though since in standard play, new systems and objects don’t unlock until certain population levels, which helped cut down on some of…
