“Another key to why this new system is so satisfying is that Fuse only works once on each new weapon. There are no takebacks, but also no juggling endless upgrades to the same gear.”

Witcher games specifically, or sandbox RPGs in general?

While I don’t think Nintendo planted the torrents, I also don’t think that would be ‘implicating’ themselves. They own it, they could torrent out their game if they want to.

No worries, there’s a lot vying for our attention these days. The first sentence really was the important part. The rest was just brainstorming helpful ideas.

‘Better’ generally indicates there is a preferred outcome that the ‘better’ thing is bringing us closer to. Even unrelated things can be compared with this lens. What’s better, a cheese grater or toothpaste? For grating cheese..., for getting the majority of dentists to agree on something..., you’ll get different…

That doesn’t quite work in response to his comment. Sort of like saying ‘you too’ when someone says ‘enjoy your food!’.

Distributing a test copy of content with the express goal of obtaining feedback is not primarily concerned with making money as a direct result. The money would come from the released final version of the game, or perhaps an early access version, that takes into account the feedback.

Simply to help illustrate the strangeness of what you’re implying, pretend it was gamestop who decided not to sell the game, and they decided to distribute through Steam a demo until they could sell through Gamestop again. You would be in this scenario saying that Gamestop might not like someone ‘going behind their…

This is one of those times you might just want to respond to yourself with a facepalm emoji. You’d actually save a ton a face with just that one self-aware moment.

When will some brave company go the other way, and add an additional ‘the’? “The the Lords of the Fallen”. Someone has to take this important step!

It may be only ‘near-mint’, but to be fair, it is the best minted ‘Tyler’ card out there. They don’t come any mintier than this one.

Seems it should be easy to just include the emote as an alias for the letter it’s representing so that it can’t be used to avoid moderation.

“decent anti-anti-Semite”

Would it be more ok if the 16 year old bounty hunter was a plumber?

“Checking out your health bar also lets you know how urgently you need to pick up the loose orbs of health and ammo enemies tend to drop.”

Wonder if the Brand’s opinions would change given a slightly different perspective:

Do you want your brand associated with high quality simulation, the best physics and gameplay, or do you prefer being associated with what some will call low effort and poor quality aesthetics? Upgrading to the premium high class level…

There must be some fascinating insight underlying this opinion. Since Wreckfest doesn’t have licensed cars, I’m genuinely curious how we get to “developers making excuses”. I’m always excited for an educational moment, and considering the uphill battle you must have had in making this connection in the first place,…

The videos fund the next charity. Doing something with the money that doesn’t generate more money ends the train, and the advertisers instead give the money to racist let’s-players or other stupid garbage that just collects the cash.

If a protagonist is going to be silent, it needs to be fully (not tongue in cheek, unless that’s the general tone of the game) recognized in world, as in, the character is formally non-verbal. The alternative I’m personally ok with, is choosing written dialogue that isn’t voiced. (No need to hear me speak what I just…

Considering a spoiler warning takes effort bordering so close to zero there is no meaningful distinction, a spoiler warning is always merited.
