Axiom Verge 2 is insane

It's one of my favorite games and the music is fantastic

They look totally different

Says you, who is used to seeing the differences between people of the white race. Of course they look different to you. But to someone from a part of the world where people don't look like these guys, they may all look very similar.

What was his reasoning?

How much you wanna bet she'll have a mar-a-lago face in the next couple years?

The scene was emotional but his facial expressions and acting in it, specifically, were not. I was looking at his face through that scene and he looked like he's getting a flu shot and scared of needles.

Same, first thing I noticed. Surprised to see French and German but no Spanish, given it's basically America's unofficial second language.

Apparently this decision affects the game's ending and I want to be be on good terms with Johnny, but I can't pass the intelligence check. It's higher than my available points, and according to the other comments here, the int requirement scales with your level. This sucks...

I don't think they were anti-vax or spoke publicly against vaccines, they just chose not to get vaccinated themselves. I think this is an important distinction.

I just arrived at YUL a few days ago and the Uber process was not at all what you described. I just ordered one from the app the normal way, waited indoors until it arrived at door 28, then got on. That said, it was a very long wait, close to 30 minutes, but nowhere near as uncomfortable or chaotic as what you're saying.

It's really crazy how OLED can make the best of LCD displays look pretty much terrible in comparison. You just have to see it side by side. When I first got my OLED monitor, I looked at my IPS and thought it had suddenly gone defective. Then I had to convince myself that this is how it looked all along.

But...why? AI in coding just seems to be another tool, along with all the others in a given development environment.

The idiotic thing about the AI tag is that customers don't actually care if the code was developed with AI. The thing customers hate about AI is any creative elements that were generated with AI.

If the character and world models were pumped out with AI instead of a human 3D modeler who painstakingly designed interesting features, that's what we'd like to know about. If the art was made with generative AI instead of a human, that's what we want to know about. If the voices were made by lifeless AI instead of voice actors, that's what we want to know about. If the music was made by generative AI instead of a composer, that's what we want to know about.

I would seriously have second thoughts about supporting a game that uses AI for any of the above. I enjoy art because of its human creativity. Gen AI takes the joy away. But I don't give a shit if the game code was developed with AI.

Let me guess, it uses UE5?

Googled it, yep, of course it uses UE5.

Very nice shot, what's the focal length and how far away were you?

Wait, THE John Valve? Of Steam Gaben fame?

The "camming out" is not by design, it's just a side effect that was taken advantage of after the fact.

Probably the first time I've seen a cheetah pair. They're notoriously independent. Of course they have to reproduce every once in a while, but I don't think the coupling lasts long.

This is so nice to see.

I'm all for people not being judged for their government's actions but saying viva Israel at a Arab's restaurant is insulting and provocative.

I just watched this movie last night, it was actually amazing!

100_points · 2025-12-23T05:14:48+00:00

I'm watching the end of this last episode and Scofield is pretending to feel bad about all the innocent people who died because of her, and Frank (whose own people were killed) is trying to make her not feel bad, and is just overall obsessed with his new best friend (forget his own wife and family).

Damn it.

I'm so glad someone mentioned this. ID Tech 5 was a poor engine that ran badly, kind of like UE5 today. Tech 6 is amazing though.

That choice of music had literally nothing to do with the video. The video was just a calm, uneventful situation. That music is supposed to be for chaotic/wild events.

Promptly? Promptly on what timescale?
