He has tarnished our agency and the image of all law enforcement.

Being a bonesaw apologist is certainly a choice.

I’m curious how/why the deal fell apart. Money seems unlikely to me, since Saudi Arabia seems to be able to easily throw around such sums, though I suppose it’s possible that something about Embracer’s proposed plan(s) looked too questionable even for Saudi Arabia. Also, both parties seem to be varying levels of…

So in other words, a good thing happened. A publisher failed to make a deal that would have likely generated money for a tyrannical, mass-murdering regime that oppresses the freedoms of countless people... and has a penchant for literally chopping journalists up into pieces and stuffing them into suitcases.

Anyone, individual or corporate, doing business with Saudi Arabia under the current regime should be ashamed of themselves. Complicit with murder, torture and misogyny, KSA represents one of the worst of human societies.

Yo that’s absolutely wonderful news. Fuck the Saudi royal family and the companies taking money from them.

Right, I don’t get why the NFT aspect is involved in the crowdfunding other than to shoehorn it in. There are other easier, less convoluted ways to crowdfund, up to and including just asking for money.

Having your audience vote on your creative decisions is a fantastic way to get them deeply emotionally invested whilst inevitably setting them up for disappointment and absolute spittle-flecked rage directed at you for not giving them exactly what they expected.

I think the problem with this approach might simply be budget and scope. BG3 took 5-6 years to develop (they started in 2017 having secured the license in 2016). Some of that time was certainly spent in building the engine and systems and so on but the majority of it was likely spent creating and testing all the game…

It’s literally a Giant Douche vs. Turd Sandwich situation. 

I mean, it’s not a problem “nobody has,” there’s literally a link in the article to another Japanese developer who doesn’t like the term

Fighting game patch notes tend to be pretty long.

That looks like a contender for longest patch notes ever. Anyone know of any longer ones?

Awful man doesn’t like awful people he attracts.

Like most things in late-stage C-word, ghost kitchens have had a horrible impact on the restaurant industry and only provided an extra mechanism through which major brands can take advantage of additional resources to further squeeze out smaller local businesses while pretending to be small businesses themselves.

Dude has the most unsettling and uncomfortable smile I’ve ever seen. He’s like a cryptid. 

I dunno’, they sound on-brand to me.

He seriously should. He and Aka Akasaka are too good as writers to lose just because they’re completely overwhelmed by taking on the drawing as well. There are tons of great artists (it just takes technique), but great writers are extremely rare. 99.9% of manga is just copycat crap (99.99% if it’s isekai or harem) and…

Mr. House also doesn’t have a fragile ego and doesn’t hinge his plans, views and actions on whatever people like him that week, and what those people want to hear.

I didn’t read the first slide and I am far too lazy to go back and check. is there a reason that only Creamy was chosen for this list? because crunchy is the way to go and the lack of crunchy offerings means the headline is just straight false.
