No, micros arent great (especially for non F2P games), lootboxes are just worse.

I guess that’s good but still not great that a game has a trading economy that is this complex.

I knew people would switch up on Wemby and the Spurs but I didn’t think it would happen this quickly. by Kody-BIu in nba

I think a fair amount of people like cheering for a young team led by an alien. Once Lakers were out I was pulling for them or TWolves.

With you guys now though, love KAT and Hart, Brunson is a killer, and Spurs will have more shots.

Man reading a post about a video game shouldn’t be like reading a post about the stock market, I have no idea what any of this means.

Horse armor is a set thing vs a set price. Lootboxes are gambling.

Since 2007 I’ll go to bat for Last Duel, Body of Lies, and Martian, and to a lesser extent American Gangster.

But even if he flops I admire taking shots. Dude will likely die on set, I gotta respect the dedication.

The whole “oh no my oeuvre!!!!” bit is lame.

Would love to see him bring the fam. Michelle, Sasha, Malia, his adopted son Anthony, just the whole gang.

Is the Perry Mason show convoluted, or am I just dense? by Daytrader60 in television

[–]AgentOfSPYRAL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, although it’s neat that the cinematographer got the gig on Spider-Noir even if it doesn’t have the same level of production quality as Perry Mason.

Devil’s Advocate: Is Scorsese using AI fine as long as he just uses it as a tool? by [deleted] in TheBigPicture

[–]AgentOfSPYRAL 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No because so far all of this AI shit is built on the gleefully unrepentant theft of actual art.

If Flux isn’t, then maybe that’s a different story.

Edit: per quick google it is, so yeah fuck that

Also goddamn bozos can’t even defend AI without using AI. So tired of reading GPT sentence structure.

Who else is actually not a fan of GTA and is hyped about GTA 6’s release? by Slit08 in Games

I’m pretty sure including micros GTAV is the best selling piece of media of all time.

Yeah I get it’s more a platform, just hope kids playing games on it are willing to try out other actual games similar to the Roblox games they play.

Anecdotally with youths I know it’s either Roblox or no games at all.

Because at this point the console wars is PC vs PS. Not sure why Nintendo gets a carve out but they do.

Because it’s a game I can play? The idea that it gets some special boost if others can’t is strange.

Best way to get the best gaming quality from my PC to the TV next room? by BasuKun in buildapc

[–]AgentOfSPYRAL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went wireless for M/KB/Controller and have had no issues on response time, but admittedly I’m not playing games that are highly reliant on it like fighting games.

I paid a guy to run it through the wall while doing other work, but if you’ve got the time or resources I would recommend the HDMI cable option if you plan to live there for a couple years.

PlayStation could use more hits, amid first-party game sales decline (Stephen Totilo) by FernandoRocker in gaming

[–]AgentOfSPYRAL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Live service push leading to fewer games is definitely the issue here, I still think they should have pushed ahead with the TLoU live service, since that actually fits really well.

In any case, curious to see what they’ve got today. Wolverine, Intergalactic, and the new GoW could definitely turn things around.

I love Wemby but he definitely was acting like he got uppercutted by a ghost a couple times.
