I can’t believe that he got up on stage and said the same kinda stuff he said before NMS launched. Even if it *does* actually come out with the quality and features he promises, that’s still a wild thing to do after the whole kerfuffle last time.

This. Florida is beyond parody. Like, if they have a short male governor in heels picking a fight with the biggest employer in his state because they disapprove of banning men in heels, that’s not even the wildest thing to have happened this year. It’s hard to make a caricature of something that is already a…

GTA6 will have a hard time living up to the insanity of real-life Florida. Maybe a Saints Row game will come close. Right now, the trailer just plays like a tourism ad.

I worried about substance. Many of the adaptations for these kinds of things have looked great but the writing was mediocre. I’m cautiously optimistic though, many because I am curious about how this story is going to work vis-à-vis the NCR.

I am mainly wary of two things:

You’re making the odd assumption that everyone who will watch the show has played FO1 and 2. Maybe 1% of the modern Fallout fanbase has played the original games and maybe 5% of the TV show’s audience will have played any of the games.

Man, I am just so done with the cosplay aesthetic of adaptations lately. This slavish devotion to trying to match stills from your live action thing to rendered/animated screenshots such that it destroys any sense of verisimilitude it might’ve had. That does not look like a suit of power armor, it looks like a…

We don’t talk about Fallout: Tactics or the console one.

I feel like you’re being intentionally dense. Again, both Sony and Discovery had to sign a contract for Discovery’s content to be distributed on PSN. That means they both had to agree to terms and conditions within said contract. As the company directly dealing with customers, it’s Sony’s responsibility to provide…

That should make it easy for Sony to sue them for breach of contract, which will allow them to recover what they’ll be paying out to the customers who got screwed.

It’s not that complicated. Contracts are written and signed for these deals. As the content provider, it’s Sony’s responsibility to specifically stipulate in the contract that if content licenses are revoked by the license owner, customers who have already purchased said content will still have access to it even if…

If Sony couldn’t guarantee they could continue to provide the shows, they shouldn’t have sold those shows in the first place.

No, I’m saying the storefront is liable for damages to the people who own the product that the storefront is repossessing.

Discovery owns the copyright. I own an instance of the show. Don’t gaslight me.

Because the customers bought the shows from Sony. Therefore Sony is the only party with an obligation to the customers. Sony, in turn, has an agreement with Discovery. If Discovery is the bad actor, it’s Sony who needs to resolve it.

might not be sony’s decision, but it was sony’s junk contract that is allowing this. When HBO? wrote off Final Space, they removed the ability to buy it, but I can still stream the episodes I already purchased, not sure why it would be any different here, other than sony’s lawyers being bad at their job...

>But there is no logical reason for her to be a Paladin, even with 5E’s loosy goosy half assed requirements.

She’s a Vengeance Paladin.

She’s such a complex and interesting character for someone so adjacent to my planted explosive barrels. 

Thanks for the auto-play Twitch embed! I love it when my work computer suddenly starts making noises!
