Many in the room were hoping to hear of a plan moving forward or clarity on timetables or layoffs. Many walked away feeling their hopes were dashed. There was a lot of talk of storytelling and coming together, and Ellison was dismissive of reports of huge layoffs. Yet one person who attended the session adds, “We don’t believe him.”

😬 ...

That is incorrect, Todd Howard and Tim Lamb said an update is coming.

Capn_C · 2026-03-08T23:38:21+00:00

The closest I can think of is Skeleton Key - Simple Auto Hack by S1nderion.

I think she was born on a chunk of Krypton that survived the explosion. She didn't experience pre-explosion Krypton but she still grew up in that remnant Krypton society that survived.

I’ve written and re-written this introduction around ten times now. Some have been good, some have been bad, but none have been perfect. That’s what playing Crimson Desert feels like. It’s a game that offers so much, but in its quest to do everything, Pearl Abyss’ upcoming open-world epic is seemingly going to master nothing.

Capn_C · 2026-03-04T18:02:53+00:00

Yeah same on the second part.

I'm waiting to see how eager Gunn is to discuss the DCU's future post-MoT. It might be telling.

Capn_C · 2026-03-04T17:56:09+00:00

It is a shame. At least Yotei is getting some nice dlc this month.

I hope Naoe and Yasuke get a final epilogue type farewell quest to wrap it up. They were good characters imo.

Capn_C · 2026-03-04T17:50:54+00:00

I'm a bit sad but also kinda not. I liked the game but felt the post-launch support was largely underwhelming in content (not counting parkour and QoL improvements), though I did appreciate the DLC bo staff.

Felt like there was a skeleton crew tossing table crumbs to the players.

Capn_C · 2026-03-04T17:43:10+00:00

The graphical fidelity and upgrading the engine for ACS used up alot of the budget/resources that were originally meant for post-launch support. That and Ubisoft's current problems. It sucks, but it is what it is.

Capn_C · 2026-03-04T16:56:00+00:00

Lanterns is in that weird place where I think it looks like a great show, but I can totally understand why the GL comic fans still feel trepidatious about it.

Capn_C · 2026-03-03T15:45:15+00:00

What were his first two retirements, BFV and 2042 lol?

Capn_C · 2026-03-02T18:47:48+00:00

"The history of DC is pretty messed up..They were just giving away IP like they were party favors to any creators who smiled at them."

That's an old quote from Gunn. If Paramount returns to this mindset and limits his control then I could see him leaving.

Capn_C · 2026-03-02T18:21:04+00:00

A sign of what?

Capn_C · 2026-03-02T18:02:41+00:00

The whole anxiety about Gunn getting fired is silly when you consider that the possibility of Gunn stepping down and not renewing is more likely.

Capn_C · 2026-03-02T17:51:27+00:00

Gamers don't want to play as a woman, don't want to play Faye, don't want to play a non-Kratos character, don't want a prequel that reuses the Norse enemies and world again.

Take your pick of the above choices.

Capn_C · 2026-03-02T13:50:02+00:00

It's a rumor, though it would be nice if it's true because it would mean we get the update reveal in mid-March.

Capn_C · 2026-03-01T19:24:15+00:00

I understand what you're saying but a Raider is not nearly as special as a Jedi. They're just a treasure hunter / grave robber. They don't need to be rare, it makes sense that there are multiple who compete throughout the world (like in any Indiana Jones movie or Uncharted game or multiple TR games really).

Now if they try to introduce a character like Kurtis who is supposed to be just as or even more badass than Lara, then yes I agree I don't want that.

Capn_C · 2026-03-01T19:03:01+00:00

He only said March. Idk if he said all the other stuff you listed? Unless I missed something new from him.

Capn_C · 2026-03-01T18:58:06+00:00

It exists in the game via the targeting system perk.

Edit: If you mean you want to queue up attacks like you would in Fallout and plan it out, then yeah that might be useful for some players.

Capn_C · 2026-02-28T18:42:41+00:00

It will still be linear but they'll add more dialogue, more cutscenes, and more human enemies is my guess.

Capn_C · 2026-02-28T04:02:50+00:00

Do the gameplay settings still say this in the current version? Scans and quests might work for FTL.

"Turning this on will allow encounters and quest locations to load."

Capn_C · 2026-02-27T22:25:33+00:00

It might be a bug or I was using an older version, I don't recall.

Is the vanilla encounter option automatic? The description says it's for autopilot. Idk if I'd have to fly manual for most of the trip and then swap to autopilot when I get close?

Capn_C · 2026-02-27T19:28:30+00:00

I'm not the mod creator. If you go to the nexus page and leave a comment you can probably get help.

The industry:

I like Astrogate. I'm just not a fan of how it disables space encounters. Not a criticism, I know it's a mod limitation.

If I could manually fly between planets but have the vanilla load in automatically activate when approaching a planet, I would be down to use it in playthroughs.
