IF no one has thought of it, has it really been rejected?

“You’re the guy who put Microtransactions into FIFA? Come on in and sit down!”

They always knew.

Ooof. I wonder if she was going to try to be a doctor… and I wonder how ethics boards and such will view actions like these. Probably just blew up her entire career with some stupidity.

You don’t need someone to tell you don’t pretend to be a doctor. Maybe you do need to tell people not to be a piece of shit, but let me help.

Stop being pieces of shit.

The board that allowed him to present and push the idea forward is still there. The power structure that wanted this change is still there.

Riccitello is gone (and fuck him for many reasons) but Unity isn’t changed, it just has a different face.

Truthfully Agents of Mayhem isn’t Overwatch… Which is kind of the problem. It wasn’t saints row, It wasn’t a new game. It just kind of existed.

More like "We don’t want to say it was only that game… "

Though actually with it a year later, I would say their follow up effort wasn’t amazing them… which makes more sense. They probably were going through Pre-prod on “saints row too” or what ever it was going to be. And Embracer didn’t want to continue.

I wonder if this is just a Hail Mary to try to stop the fear that the merger will make Microsoft the most dominant face in streaming.

Even if it’s agreed upon, it just means in two generations once internet speeds reach where they need to be for streaming to be feasible, Microsoft will get those rights back. Streaming means next to nothing today, but the fear is in a couple generations, that’s going to be the future of gaming, especially seeing how much publishers want to stop gamers from owning anything.

Said none of those companies.

Listen, all those companies suck, but you don’t have to put words in their mouths, everyone seems extremely positive about Baldur’s Gate, and I would say almost all developer aspire to reach the same breadth and depth as Baldur’s Gate 3 with as much polish as they put on it. There’s a long list of reasons why they can’t or don’t (often publishers… or scope creep… but mostly publishers).

Unless there’s a massive thread of shit talking from other developers that I’m missing, but I’m pretty sure that doesn’t exist.

Does anyone have stats on Afghanistan’s opinions on America’s occupation right before we left? I imagine most of them wanted America to leave…

Though I’m now curious what their TRUE opinion was of the Taliban, because I see people wanting Communism back in Russia, I imagine people wanted the Taliban back instead of the Americans.

I’m sure at least 50 percent of them are like “Fuck no” (women), but when that group isn’t a huge part of the people guarding the country, I wonder if this was inevitable. Even if we somehow destroyed the entire Taliban, there would be another fundamental Islamic group who wanted to take over.

I wonder if it was “hard” or “I want the Taliban to take over.” There’s probably a decent amount of people in that area that can fundamentally agree with the Taliban. it’s a religious and oppression group. If you’re ideologically aligned with the Taliban, and male, you’re probably either as good or better of under them.

Not saying this is everything but I imagine there’s at least some people who are ok with the new government, mostly because they don’t care about others over their own self.

I’m not surprised.

Hell I’m pretty sure people are forgetting Ukraine is at war. This is why I hated the “They’re winning” “Russia is retreating” rhetoric. Because wars take a long time and a lot of people will die in them. People are cheering something they have no part in but by saying “Ukraine is winning” I think many of them also add “And now we can stop focusing on them”.

Part of it is the media diverting attention or focusing on what they want people to focus on (watch how coverage of different shootings are covered. If it’s a white guy with a death toll, it’s covered far more than if it’s a woman, a non-minority, or a low death toll. People will defend that by “It’s focusing on the higher death toll” But doesn’t focus on the coverage changes based on race, gender, or if it’s a gang/drug related shooting.

Part of this is click bait but I think part of it too is a narrative that’s formed. Which is why school shootings are covered more than random alleys and such. But the reason why isn’t the problem, it’s more how the media shapes the national narrative due to what they decide to focus on.

The other part is people have enough going on in their life that they can’t think of every little thing going on in the world, but since the news is covering this, I guess we’ll focus a bit on Afghanistan for a bit again.

Reddit’s decline is greatly exaggerated.

As someone who LOVED the previous two South Park games. This give me no interest.

Can’t really tell exactly what this game is, but it sounds like a brawler, survival game, or just multiplayer focused game.

Not saying it won’t be good, I hope it is, but using Cartman in a wizards robe, made me hopeful for more South Park style RPGs. This feels like it’ll be cheaper (to make). Though I’m sure it’ll find some fans.

You’re correct, still not 36 though.

36 days… July 3rd to August 6… is 34 35 days.

I find it very hard to believe anything that makes such a simple mistake doesn’t have other mistakes.

Exactly, any other time that would be called consolidation … but that doesn’t drive engagement so we will say leaving. …

Ignoring also it’s Australia instead of America broadcast channel… Which most people would assume.

Such a non story.

Ten percent of people didn’t know and now feel bad they were tricked…

The other ninety percent don’t care because they just have hate boners for Twitter.

"But it was a cess pool in the way I like it … fuck it I’m going back to Tumblr … "

I really liked the Nexus Line of Google phones and from what I’ve seen the Pixels are great phones, but the price puts them outside of what I want to pay.

The 3a, and the 6a might be the only ones I considered, but the rest are just “Flagship priced phones” and yeah they may have the hardware to back them up, but paying 600+ dollars for a phone is ridiculous. With them reaching for a thousand dollars is a hard no.

You basically hit on it. They’re trying to make them into iPhones… people are on Android specifically because they don’t want Apple prices, or that type of enviroment.
