I definitely did not think I’d come into this with the same car as Erik. He’d probably even agreed with my lottery goal of doing a BEV resto mod swap to a 3rd gen Camaro. 

But Mods do not play well with: Microtransactions, Seasonal content, battle passes, and Multiplayer. ALL things that devs are probably mandated to include.

You have a minor point regarding 3rd party assets. However, both Skyrim and Fallout 4 use them, and while those 3rd party assets did complicate getting the customer version of their toolsets out (certain parts had to be disabled), they *STILL* managed to do it without real issue. Which, ultimately, invalidates your…

There’s a lot of things that many developers just can’t ‘grok’ about gaming. This is just one example. Another is modding. The Elderscrolls series is proof that *IF* you design your developer tools around providing access to them to your customers, the time and manpower spent on those refining those tools pays for…

Obviously no arguing with the man. He’s right, and he acknowledges the problem right there too. It is absolutely one of those things where it’s super easy to want and acknowledge, but way harder in the execution within the triple-A game space. You’re kind of flying by the seat of your pants most of the time, and…

Translation: “The 911 is a fantastic, attractive, charismatic, and enjoyable car, and if it was a person, it would likely have lots of sex.” 

I would have loved to have overheard that conversation.

Well I guess I’m toxic because I use it as a “good game” emote when the game is good.

It’s advertised in Los Angeles as well. It would fail CA visual inspection immediately from the bypassed air pump (probably locked up) and missing converters.

Report them.

I was going to be NP... then I noticed the bypassed smog pump and no catalytic converters.

By the way, I believe that the Fox Body Mustang and its SN95 offspring are the only ones in the model’s history to wear the Ford Blue Oval badge. All prior versions used the FORD block letter badge and every one since (including the electric five-door Mustang-in-name-only) has used Mustang badging solely.

It’s far easier for the motorcycle ignorant to just rag on Harley. I’m not a Harley guy, have never owned a Harley, but to think HD is just some poor performing t-shirt company is some old-ass, ignorant trope that gets trotted out by dumb writers and commenters.

“Go into a Harley dealer looking to buy a LiveWire, and the sales staff will steer you away from those “candy-ass” electric bikes because they’re sure you really want a throbbing V-Twin between your legs.”

Not really on the Livewire. I am not a Harley guy, I like ADV bikes and the PanAm doesn’t appeal to me at all. However, a buddy went and took the course to get his license at a Harley dealer in Massachusetts, so I went down to check it out with him on my Honda Africa Twin.

Crap lede. Here’s a rewrite: “HD Core business performing, e-bike business may take years to be profitable.” Hey! Kind of like the auto business.

They’re going to have a very hard time shaking their reputation.

It’s the only reason there’s not one parked in my garage right now.

Brand loyalty is a mental disorder.

It used to be the auto-only but the manual was added so no excuses anymore. If Toyota made it themselves we’d end up with something like the new Z. Great on the surface but pretty unoptimized and kinda rough underneath
