Well, if we use your car analogy, in TV, movies, music videos, and video games, the usage of cars requires licensing and permission from the car manufacturer.

Value of the currency. In Russia for example, the average IT worker earns about a third of the pay of western Europe, therefore the price of goods to purchase are scaled down accordingly. Games tend to always be unproportionally more expensive for those people living in countries with weaker economies though.

ME1 has not aged well, whether you play the original with mods or the new LE version. Burn through it for the story, the characters and the virtual pin saying you’ve played it.

There are obviously many ways this could go, but consider owning a brand or IP through all media.

Roblox’s IPO valuation was based on it being a technical platform/service of some kind rather than being a game company. The stock market (whoever this is), sees it as more in line with Facebook than EA, for example.

Could be worse, could be EA.

Steam doesn’t control this, it is set by the Publisher/Developer in the backend.

I guess this could go one of three ways.

Don’t think so production companies from multiple countries, though Tencent did invest in it and China is the first opening country for it, so its a pretty big screw up.

This is a better take. I mean, serious if you wrote a five page high level concept and shared it with ten gamers, you’ve get ten different games described back at you. Imagine putting that in the hands of executives with limited or no development experience.

For a European, like these developers, the Democrates are right wing, the Republicans are far-right, at this time.

FIFA is one of very $billion games. It does it every year without fail, so I don’t see them giving up on that.

Because the other streaming services will pay Publishers for their games to be included in the service. The nVidia service doesn’t pay anything to the Publishers.

Epic are basically paying all the revenue up front. So, if they and Deep Silver think Metro will do X revenue in 12 months, Epic pays that for exclusive in the beginning.

This is how Rainbow Six Siege currently does it. The Season Pass gives you early access to new operators, plus you don’t need to spend in-game currency to unlock them and you get a bunch of cosmetic loot boxes as well.

I don’t actually get this. I came back to D2 for Warmind but the controls are intuitive and most actions in the menus are explained on the screen (like dismantling or upgrading).

Stellaris: Apocalypse expansion, because I can and also My Time at Portia, because I’m still looking for something Stardew Valley like, with less grind and graphics that suit my tastes.

I think its fine if there is some kind of emotional connection between them. I doubt it could be any more than that though whilst they remain on two different sides of the war with very different perspectives of what is right and what is wrong.

I’m not sure the advantage exists. Currently the PvP on PC is pretty broken, as there is a setup that allows you to get aim assist whilst using mouse and keyboard. This means those that have it absolutely dominate in PvP.

Military designations are public domain, along with the vehicle appearance if actively used by the military. Activision isn’t being sued for featuring the vehicle, but for using it’s trademarked commercial name.
