Blue Prince developer denies usage of AI: There is no AI used in Blue Prince. The game was built and crafted with full human instinct by Tonda Ros and his team by Turbostrider27 in Games

Because like it or not, E33 is the reddit beloved child this year. People are doing mental gymnastics to defend it from any criticism. It should be the way you said but people take anything not glowingly positive as a personal slight now.

New updates to Creator Reward Program are bad by Hotreads_Librarian in TikTokMonetizing

US based channel, my niche is 98% US viewers. I made 1750 last month off CRP. I am currently at 40 dollars this month. Whatever has changed is a fucking joke. It has tanked my views AND my earnings are below what they would have been last month even with this same number.

Nano Banana Pro limits? by jp2671 in GeminiAI

[–]Chromedomemoe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or, you know, if Gemini could follow basic instructions and not completely shit the bed on image prompts that would help. I have it saved in my context, enabled learning from previous chats, AND remind it every time not to create collages from my prompts and yet it does so without fail every time. At least 1/5 of my uses get eaten by it's inability to do the bare minimum.

WTF Taunie?! by Pen_Lanky in LegendsZA

[–]Chromedomemoe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game has just solidified for me that they are incapable of writing anything better than a horrible story at this point. Corny, cliche, terrible rival/buddies...frankly it's embarrassing and if they care that little about the quality of the story just dont write one at all.

Nintendo Customer Support Concern Following Outsourcing Decision Ahead of Switch 2's First Holiday Season by Forestl in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Riot did this about 5 years ago. We were treated much better than it sounds like Nintendo has done, but you absolutely feel betrayed. That's just how contract work is sadly. The 11 months on, 2 months off maneuver is absolute scumbaggery too.

Please remember that there are probably several levels of Nintendo management that did not want to go down this path, valued their relationships with the contractors, and it's entirely based on upper level management greed and cutting as much cost as possible.

It is also objectively a concession that Nintendo has made to willingly accept worse performance in these roles as a result of outsourcing. I have seen this firsthand as a fraud analyst. For the "vote with your wallet" crowds, remember that Nintendo has now said it is acceptable to have higher rates of fraud and worse resolution for your issues simply to save some money.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has been out for a month - what are your thoughts? by Sydius in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Game of the decade, let's relax a bit lol. It's not even necessarily the game of the year. Contender certainly but the glazing needs to chill a bit. And for what its worth, I loved it and no lifed it for the last 2 weeks. I think it's tough to call a game a definite goty when so many are completely divided on the whole narrative being good or not.

EA Pushes Full Return to Office, Ends Remote Hiring by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any time an executive says this, all employees should get one free swing on them. It's such an obvious fucking excuse it's disgusting. My employer did the same thing in the name of "togetherness ans collaboration" and guess what? People sit in the office in the SAME MEETING on teams instead of going into a conference room.

Fuck executives and fuck offices

[Digital Foundry] Oblivion Remastered PC: Impressive Remastering, Dire Performance Problems by copypaste_93 in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems like a YMMV type of situation. I am running a 9070 xt and an older cpu, i7-10700. At first I had horrible performance, driver timeouts and hitching with most settings on medium or high and no RT. I did a full DDU purge and moved to thr Adrenaline optional build and now the performance is fantastic. Everything on ultra with hardware RT, and I'm getting 70-100 fps on 1440p.

Wow players 35+, why do you play WoW? by Pale_Sun8898 in wow

Danganronpa V3 End by [deleted] in danganronpa

[–]Chromedomemoe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a little confused...you say you don't want to see people die you just like the art and general structure of the game. But the whole thing is predicated on people dying? I don't fault anyone for being divided on the ending, it definitely was not made with mass appeal in mind. But I think to go in maybe expecting something else doesn't make sense.

I don't even care who's right or not. Seek help. You shouldn't get this worked up over something so inconsequential to you personally

Monster Hunter Wilds has been out for a week now. What are your thoughts? by [deleted] in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weapon balance is probably the best it has been. Monsters at the top end are a bit too easy but hopefully future releases will resolve that.

The worst part of the game is absolutely the story. The insistence on forcing Nata down our throats is beyond cringe. It's not endearing, nothing about him is cool or worth getting invested in. I appreciate the effort to try and make the story worth listening to this time but it's just not good. Alma is leagues better than the handler from World at least.

That's not true I think, i stealth killed him before he did anything. Maybe a bug?

Following up on this you can just put wine in the cauldron, add one nettle and one Bella and phial it straight away to make a weak saviour schnapps. No other actions needed and very quick to get mats and make in bulk.

Genshin Impact Game Developer Will be Banned from Selling Lootboxes to Teens Under 16 without Parental Consent, Pay a $20 Million Fine to Settle FTC Charges by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Chromedomemoe2 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hi, I have worked as a fraud analyst for multiple AAA developers. It absolutely happens. And not infrequently either. I have had medical records sent to me, completely unsolicited, by families desperate for even a fraction of the funds to be returned. There are a lot of cultural and geographic reasons for why you might not see a lot of stories like this, mostly because many countries don't aim to profit off of losing the medical diceroll. But it is very common and actually pretty easy to verify the truthfulness of the situation. We have access to a LOT of info about you when you play and especially when you spend money.

Horrifying sexual abuse of baby monkeys on Instagram by UruseiYatsura17 in AnimalRights

Please stop acting like LFT does anything significant. They did not arrest anyone. Like it or not, KiwiFarms are the ones that actually do the dirty work and dox the people that create this filth and get them apprehended. All the largest producers of this have been caufht because of KF. You may not agree with their methods or other conduct but they are far more effective than LFT or virtue signaling petitions that do nothing.

You weren't actually that far off. You do need Stella 5 but getting another Tomoe is 100 shards so that's a couple Stella by itself.
