I think you’re right on all three accounts.
It does, however, become very finite solution in the scenario that the new game flops. It’s having two baskets, putting all your eggs in one and burning the other. So now their entire income is dependent on that one metaphorical basket carrying the weight.
I don’t get why sequels now have to come at the cost of the originals death.
Yes, they have nuclear weapons.
They quite like threatening everyone with them, but haven’t actually dropped a bomb on anyone yet.
They like testing them often, to make sure we know they still have them.
I mean, “playing nice with others” is kind of a new thing for Sony.
They’ve leaned in hard on the Exclusivity concept up until now.
Engaging in the democratic process and overhrowing a government aren’t quite the same thing. But I’m guessing you’re perfectly aware of this.
And when it comes to toppling a man like Putin, method matters.
Just straight up killing a person like him will likely have consequenses. And not the “sunshine and rainbows” kind.
USA has quite the history of shooting their presidents. But for some reason it doesn’t seem to change anything.
So it kinda makes sense that others would be hesitant to attempt the same when the results are so poor.
I think you are in the minority.
Dude had a solid carrier in rom-coms and he’s only seen increased success since. People love Renolds.
The article is just trying to sell itself with a wierd angle that holds very little water.
Do what, exactly? It’s the same story all over the world, including China and USA.
It takes a lot to make people actively rebel. And then what do you do afterwards? Very few normal people wants to rule a country and they sure as shit don’t want risk dying or worse in the attempt.
I’m just saying that you’re unlikely to see the Russians do it before you do it yourselves.
Don’t overestimate what unions do. MS is still perfectly in their right to close down the studio and fire all it’s staff, if they had a mind to.
It’s just a matter of doing it properly. Severance Pay, Pensions and such. Which I honestly don’t think Microsoft cares too much about.
I mean, if they can avoid paying it, they would. But they do actually have a legitimate business side. And severance pay for the entire Blizzard staff would likely still cost them less than what they had to pay Kotick to get rid of him.
It’s not incorrect though. It is all Microsofts. The IPs, the staff… everything.
I dunno, I haven’t been able to get Subnautica to work for some reason. It’s likely due to the games own spaghetti code barely being functional on the intended OS’s as is…
But it’s a bummer nontheless.
Same goes for XCOM.
Satisfactory is such a great game. I love screwing around in that world.
Nuclear stage breaks my brain though.
Given that the only console games I play are old Nintendo platformers, I’m gonna have to go with the NES Controller.
Trying to play Megaman 2 with analog sticks is an exercise in anger management. XD
Tell me you mean that you have played 1 & 2, just not on the steam deck.
Anything otherwise would be a shame.
Pretty sure I saw an animated short of a Game Grumps bit about this.
Isn’t the entire point of the newer versions of Windows just to force the engagement with applications you normally wouldn’t use?
I just started dual booting to see what Linux could do nowadays. And yes, there’s a few games I have trouble playing, but it’s mostly games like Subnautica that gives me trouble. And in all honesty, that game barely works in Windows as it is.
I haven’t had problems with anti-cheats at all. Like, Helldivers 2 runs as well on Linux as in Windows.
Well, just finished it.
And although it didn’t match the first game, it’s still a nice chill game in the same vain as the first. Same feeling and all that.
As suspected, it’s tough to attempt a continuation of the first story. They dipped a bit much into a few themes that really didn’t seem to fit very well and there’s a distinct lack of interaction with other NPCs. There’s a few random characters you talk to over the radio, but not anything that has any impact on anything.
So it’s a fine enough game if you just want a bit more of the Oxenfree flavor, but don’t expect too much from it.
Just got into Shantae and The Seven Sirens. Haven’t had a good new side-scroller in quite a while. I’m enjoying it very much so far.
And ofcause, running around on Helldivers 2’s new difficulty being stupid. Getting caught up in that whole debacle (what is life without a bit of drama). Fun, if a bit unpolished.
