Fire Temple should be second - using that ability to break walls / mine stuff instead of wasting your weapons is the way to go.  Lightning and Water aren’t useful.

“easy new dupe glitch”

Nah, not really.  Only good for towing stuff.  Otherwise, just port to a tower and fly around.

A “shelter” would imply that someone could stand under it and receive protection from inclement weather.

Brain drain is real. The problem with out of touch C-suite folks is that they’re not game developers. They only know the P&L’s, and they will do anything (literally anything) to ensure the stock goes up in the short term.

“Fully romancable character” is... not really accurate. It’s not like Mass Effect where there’s this opportunity to flirt / not-flirt. It’s just hinted at in non-optional cinematics, and then at the end of the game, you have a choice to get down, or to turn her down.

they changed the kissing picture, but left the headline as a spoiler.  so inept, lol

Jesus, this looks incredible.  I wish they’d ditch the weapon durability though.

“Breath of the Wild has been a fulcrum point for the open-world genre ever since it launched alongside the Switch. Every developer has been trying to capture the same lightning in a bottle Nintendo did in terms of integrating deep systems that make its world feel alive rather than just a map with icons to clear.”

Go see Cal, go see Cal, go see Cal.

Written like a person who has zero experience in software development and hardware infrastructure capable of supporting millions of simultaneous users.

Yep.  The amount of folks who would actually do PC couch co-op is insanely small.  Not worth the time.

Driving in DC / Baltimore is straight up Mad Max.  It’s awful

...so you want the worst for tens of thousands of employees?  Cool man

as someone who does management in game dev at a fully remote studio, this ain’t the issue

What a fucking boss.  

The link you’ve posted about JK profiting from the game has absolutely ZERO information about how she is profiting, by the way. It’s an article that is completely devoid of information or sources.

putting Beyonce over Prince is a fucking war crime

Crazy.  I was in to these in the late 90's (anyone remember bigmog.com?) and I had no idea it was such an old concept.

What did they do to my boy?  The last model looked dope.  They removed any and all character from the car.  Their design cues feel like an extreme overcorrection from the last gen transformer-ass lookin Civics.  Bummer
