Yep, the guy is a liar.

As someone who has never downvoted a video I would approve of this change. I never understand why any video, no matter how inoffensive, strictly informational, and slickly produced, will always have a bunch of downvotes. I don’t need to be reminded every time I click on a video of puppies that the internet is filled…

Or really any of those classic water racing games: Hydro Thunder, Wave Race, etc. Why don’t they make water racing games any more?

I loved the Mad Max game. The driving is so satisfying, I also played it to death chasing down every icon on the map. I am also a big fan of AC: Syndicate. In terms of story, setting, and gameplay it’s probably my favorite of the last four games in the series. It has a grappling hook!

Well I know what I’m playing tonight now.

In Canada, you could pre-order these from multiple stores. I ordered mine from BestBuy.

The problem is building a PC that can run these games at the same level as a console without spending 3 times as much (or more) especially with graphic card prices going insane and no stock anywhere.

Indeed. His entire chain of arguments could be used as an example in a textbook of logical fallacies, he hits so many of them. I don’t know why I wasted my time replying to him.

So I looked up Equatorial Guinea and I’m still not sure how that makes the ethnic cleansings in both Myanmar and China manufactured outrage. I also don’t know what news sources you read but my main news sources: CBC, BBC, Washington Post have covered all of these things (including Equatorial Guinea, so that’s on me.)…

I sincerely doubt that the people who are outraged about racism against Asians (and rightfully so) are the same ones spreading conspiracy theories. Also, because I don’t know what’s going on in Equatorial Guinea, I’m not allowed to comment on human rights abuses elsewhere in the world? Come on now.

I guess I’m not so much blaming the low-level devs as the management.

That’s a fair point. It just seems like such a longstanding and significant performance issue shows a failure of management at that company. Have they not released any updates for GTA Online in the past 7 years?

I discovered The Horror because of NIN. I saw them open a show and bought their CD from the merch table, back when live music and CDs were still a thing.

Sounds more like Skinny Puppy then NIN to my ears at least. Either way, I can dig it.

This isn’t some obscure exception or memory leak that affected a minority a players and could only be noticed after release, it was a blatant beginner-level programming error that affected nearly all players and should have been caught much sooner and if not caught then at least fixed in a timely manner (i.e. not 7+…

Same, enjoyed the first half of the first season, slogged through season 2, and noped out one episode into season 3. Good riddance.

I disagree. I’ve worked in software engineering for 15+ years and there is no way I would accept 6+ minute load times for a piece of software that I worked on. You don’t need to look through millions of lines of codes to find an issue like the one documented in the blog post, you just need to look at the part of the…

Yes. He documents how he did it. It’s amazing how such a simple problem got past code review and that such a big company never bothered trying to fix it.

Hopefully they also fixed the constant crashes on PC that prevent me from playing more than 15 minutes at a time.
