Gets carried away in overly rambly rants about unimportant bullshit, uses fancy words without understanding their meaning, has a complete lack of self awareness.
Likes budgies.
I wonder how many times I will have to see a publisher significantly harm their reputation in the PC market in a yolo bet to set up their own ecosystem and store.
I thought Sony had been conservative and decided against it when their first steam releases hit but with this move it seems possible that a Sony PC ecosystem was always in the works and it just wasn’t ready for those original releases. Oh well.
Easy Red 2 is SO slept on right now relative to its quality, the work the team is putting in it, and its future potential
Always nice to see anothe ER2 enjoyer
damn, I knew that Sega had had a few big blunders lately, but having to straight up sell Relic is pretty huge… Wonder how their output will look from now on, it’s no secret that some of their output under Sega was questionable (primarily Dawn of War 3) and one has to wonder how much of their failings were due to Sega’s directive.
Wanted Dead
But I don’t agree with the general perception that it is “bad”, because in all the aspects that actually matter for making an action game fun, it was actually really good. It just got blasted for being lacking (admittedly, very lacking) in production value because somehow we are still giving importance to that in the 2020s…
The tradeoff kinda made sense at the dawn of streaming, when the transaction was basically trading quality for better pricing and convenience.
Nowadays? Yeaaaaah I don’t know about that chief
Crazy to think that we lost all the advantages that streaming offered, kept all the disadvantages, piled on a few more disadvantages on top of that, and people went “sure that makes sense 24 bucks a month worth it bro”
I just hope that these companies don’t have the gall to complain about a lack of manpower or expertise availability a few years down the line. Because by coordinating all these layoffs, they are currently creating a vacuum in which a lot of professionals in the industry won’t have any chance to acquire experience and develop their skills, and many will probably have to change their career trajectory significantly just to ensure their economic well-being. And once they see how greener the grass is outside the videogame industry, let me assure you, they won’t be coming back.
If you are not willing to stick with your professionals through your thin, you don’t deserve their availability and effort through your thick.
If there was a significant amount of resin inside the printer (which I have to assume since you report strong smell), your boss is either a negligent asshole or somebody irresponsibly ignorant.
And if the printer was working and actively printing something inside an enclosed unventilated environment, then your boss can’t be trusted with crayons or scissors.
I feel so bad for them, there are few things in software dev worse than having to devote significant time and effort to a project that is failed at a concept level
nice, I’m waiting a bit to see if there’s a steady stream of ongoing support before buying, but it’s looking good so far
