It’s not really a finances vs hardware problem. They have the money, and renting servers is not costly.

The Ancient One explains (this fiction’s version of) time travel and splitting reality as being related to the stones, NOT people’s actions. If the infinity stones are displaced, it forks the universe, and restoring them merges time back together. She’s probably the most authoritative source, which leaves a lot of…

I’ve got a nice portfolio of old PC games.

This is a very non-issue. Borderlands 1, 2, Pre-Sequel are not new games. Their store rating at this point matters pretty much squat all; it’s like review-bombing the original Mass Effect or something. The majority of people buying at this point are likely doing so through a collector’s edition or getting a copy on a…

Yeah to echo godblessE39, that language (post-mortem) has nothing to do with success or failure of a launch despite its morbid origins in language. We use the phrase debrief instead where I work, but the intent is the same, it’s a look back at what you just finished doing, to examine how your processes worked, what…

I suppose I ended up more ‘against’ it than I intended to be, because what I’ve seen is also a lot of complete gloss-over that software development, testing, etc. is not free nor timeless. To put it simply: difficulty modes cost you content. Well-done difficulty modes, that get you to the point where you have a solid…

I don’t think that’s entirely a fair assessment of the ‘other side’. If anyone argued that NO games should be accessible, that’s insane. But it’s also not what anyone is saying, and I’m not sure strawmanning it out to that is helpful. Not being able to participate in an entire medium is awful. Not being able to…

This whole topic is one I’ve wobbled around on myself a lot. I’ve got a pretty diverse background in a lot of ways, and I’ve found myself on both sides of the fence.

This is something I’ve been thinking about playing Sekiro. “I wonder if From Software is sick of the Souls formula yet?” versus “They sure have gotten really good at it though and a big pivot would be just like starting over in talent.”

Bob was super cool, but fortunately her ultimate isnt just a "BOB missile" or something.  She calls him out and he sticks around at an area.  He even counts as a player for capping points or pushing payloads.  So he gets some good screen time.
