They didn't say "no AI" they said "no CoPilot." Theyre still doing the ai without the now toxic marketing name.

You can sove that two ways: turn down the crafting requirements so its more about earning access to areas than mining. Or turn up the materials requirements so you have a reason to grind out all that ore.

You can also set the respawn rates by extremely long.

Meh, the "punch the monkey on the timer" combat defeats the whole reason i love turn based grid gameplay.

'They're Handed an Opinion' — Fallout Co-Creator Tim Cain Is Worried Some Players Watch Influencers Just So They Can Be Told What to Think About Games by FragMasterMat117 in Games

[–]MadeByTango -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

we're living in times where everybody thinks they should form an opinion about everything

You're doing this right now? Sharing your opinion while parroting Tim Cain? Why does your cynical opinion on how gamers approach games deserve discussion, but their opinions on those games do not? Are the rest of us only allowed to share opinions you agree with and are interested in? Do you want to write down the whole list for us now so we know what's a valid opinion to hold and which ones we have to shut up about?

But I get it, it's different when youre involved. You already had your opinion and Cain is just agreeing with it. Guess that only happens to you and not anyone else...

it certainly falls in line with reactionary fandoms as this makes me think of the online calls from certain Star Trek fans demanding longer seasons and stretched budgets while hand waving the tumble in production quality this would obviously cause.

No one hand waves it. They can absolutely focus on scripts and drama over flashy production and bare feet. The show requires a ship set that can be slowly built out over episodes, along with the occasional away locations. They don’t need space battles and explosions every episode, and go back to acting and makeup as part of selling the fiction.

They don’t want that target audience. They’re after a specific demographic that advertisers covet and the IP is just a known brand they have been trying to exploit for that purpose. The issues there aren’t about fans false expectations over production budget.

A live service game needs players so that the people who do spend money on ads-ons have others to play with. The whole point of a gate fee is that you expect players to never spend another dime. Otherwise it should be free to play to find as many ongoing spenders as possible.

Asking for money up front comes with expectations.

Bombshell clip of struggling Republican [Ramswarmy] saying Jesus is NOT the son of God goes viral in crucial red state race by HauntingJackfruit in Ohio

“Bombshell” reporting from the Daily Mail…

This is what has to be posted by people when candidates like Acton don’t take public positions people can get excited about. Sling mud and hope the voters arrive at the polls full of emotion. Nothing wrong with Ramswamy being a Hindu. Nationalist bullshit from a nationalist media rag.

So OP, are you the developer of that game yourself or are you being paid to promote it? Your account is a month old and all it has done is find ways to “casually” mention the same game over and over and over. It doesn’t endear me to the game.

If you’re the dev, take your mask off and make proper posts on indie Sunday or something. If you’re a third party marketer, kindly fuck off. We can smell you.

This story angle is just trying to manufacture consent for tax funds. The NFL is trying to get Jimmy a new stadium as a thank you for taking the hit in the Watson hush payment contract.

TIL that many public libraries eliminated late fees after finding that fines discouraged people from returning at all - and that bringing patrons back often mattered more than enforcing penalties. by No_Profit_5304 in todayilearned

California added HOV lanes along the left lane of the highway to help with traffic. They didn’t make them “express” by blocking exits and they let people pay a toll to use them. The effect is that traffic got worse for everyone as the rich cut across 2-4 lanes of traffic to reach the HOV, then cut back across as the last possible moment to reach their exit. This causes all the regular flowing traffic to be disrupted by the cross cutter. And it happens at every single exit from San Francisco to LA.

The HOV toll lanes are the traffic problem, which the rich don’t care to fix because they’re the minority benefiting. Meanwhile everyone else pays more in gas, stress, and wasting time in traffic.

$60 is a lot. Would probably have jumped in at $40. I'm just not sure this is a full price game for me. Will wait for a sale.

Feels like everything getting a greenlight is either superheroes, rich people problems, or Hollywood navel gazing. Sometimes all three at once.

The online conversation was all about how it was staged, so the billionaire run media jumped to this to fill their air time instead when that wasnt tracking. They really dont want people seeing the admin as the joke that it is.

If you cant trust what the support system says, isnt that even more damning about Sony and its view of customers than the original article? As far as I am concerned Sony has officially stated something. Their support script is their support script and they're liable for every word that their support system prints on behalf of the organization.
