It’s still on creation engine, right? Don’t worry Todd, we’ll do the heavy lifting for you again.

What is this word salad supposed to mean?

I’d rather see Slytherin be redeemed than abolished. There’s some interesting things to examine there that I think would be more powerful than just getting rid of it. 

“Looks like you’ve got egg on your face.”

We can’t keep supporting old hardware forever. It’s time to let the PS4 die so that the PS5 can fully shine...by...running remakes of gamecube and PS3 games.

They either roll out Cata and lose their ENTIRE classic playerbase, or leave it at the final patch for purists to go back and enjoy for $15/month.

If Sony’s opposition results in more regulator scrutiny of the gaming industry, then that’ll be good for consumers, bad for Sony. This merger is going through regardless but Sony’s own anti-competitive practices may get more attention than they would like.

Hi, just a friendly reminder that Bobby Kotick is a piece of shit and the world would be better off if literally the entire fleet of Greyhound busses ran over him (and the rest of Activision-Blizzard executive leadership, for that matter).

The technically correct nerds will come for you, but this was one fucked up “beta,” what with selling season passes and all and not making it clear when it would all end.

I didn’t play it, but I can see why people are pissed. Seems like it was more a test to see how much people would spend, and now that interest is dwin…

ok, thank you for that because i felt like i was going crazy that they had actually released the game

“The game just felt so soulless and mechanical to me.” this is exactly what happens when you take the kind of smash players who hate the chaos of smash bros and have them design their own smash-like game. 

The July launch you referenced was the actual beta period. I participated in the closed alpha, which was last May, and then the game came back in July for an open beta before launching with season one in August. They have just now decided that the game was in beta the whole time because they fucked up so bad. You…

Of course they did. Have we forgotten Embrace, Extend, Extinguish? Looks like they jumped right to Extinguish.

The LEGAL presumption is innocence. He got the benefit of that presumption with the domestic violence allegation, and now he’s a free man. Doesn’t mean people who aren’t a judge or an empanelled member of his jury can’t look at his other skeevy behavior and draw their own conclusions.

The presumption in this country is innocence.

I mean, there’s still all that horrific shit of him sliding into underage girls DMs and telling them they’re hot jailbait.

That’s where maching learning could be really useful. It could be used to generate dialog that does react to the world and what the player is doing. Instead of the developers having to plan out and explicitly write dialog for a finite set of situations.

I’ve already finished it so I’m good. Hope your day is better

Agreed, this game is super addicting! I love that feeling of seeing my strategy fall apart due to the effect of a random location and improvising a new one to pull off a really close victory like, “Oh no, this is bad... wait, I can salvage this... they did what!?!? Oh, that played out perfectly actually!”
