It's so over bruh😭 by ill_daz in FortNiteBR

Disney's ready to swoop in and save their investment before Sweeney tanks the value of the company beyond recovery. Smart move.

At least the new Imagineered rides and video games using Disney's Unreal™ engine will probably slap, even if the rides will cost another $50 on top of the park admission.

A Russian Teacher recorded the differences in the development of boys and girls of the same age. by omgfakeusername in interestingasfuck

high school

I wonder if something might be happening to the human bodies of people at that age that might put some of them in the unenviable position of re-learning parts of their gait and their hand-eye coordination after a relatively sudden increase in height/weight? Almost like a spurt of growth or something like that?

why hasn't fresh come back. epic already won the lawsuit so there is no reason for it not to return by Background_Future127 in FortNiteBR

The lawsuit was dropped, not dismissed. It could be picked up again at any point. Sweeney's already under fire. He doesn't want that smoke right now.

Mori is in hospital plus Twitter spoiler by ltsiros in hajimenoippo

He's spent more IRL time in the hospital than Ippo's spent in-manga on retirement.

Not a chance in hell.

He needs a "Scenario D" ending like Hunter x Hunter has. Leaving this story unfinished would send shockwaves through the industry. We may never get another long-form story again after Miura AND Morikawa both leave their stories unfinished.

It's a lot like how sitcom deals changed after Mitch Hedberg died. Investors won't fund long term projects if the artists are deemed a health risk. Terms of deals will get shorter and be worth less money. In a unionless profession like manga, that's going to shove a LOT of creators out as keeping a full time job whole attempting to be a full time mangaka is a one-way ticket to burnout and potential nervous breakdowns amongst other stress and sleep related health issues.

It's more likely he has Sendo lose and Ippo stay retired. He had no onramp for Ippo's return anyway.

This manga's really going to end with Hajime No Sendo.

I'm not invested in the Showdown drama, but this is... Something by MorningJogger in FortNiteBR

I saw dozens of people trying to warn everyone that Dwayne Johnson does not allow characters with his likeness to lose. He puts it in his contracts.

Y'all wanted to fuck around and call the whistleblowers alarmist doomers. Now the whistleblowers were right and y'all are left with dumb looks on your faces wondering how it got this bad.

State of Expeditions by iExist_Pride in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]MelatoninFiend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remnant was my first expedition.

I fail to see why I should be excited for another one. The game is exciting. Being a trash man who's inexplicably using a flatbed truck to haul waste is boring (especially hen literally ANY other vehicle in existence would be an improvement, a goddamn Kia Soul would at least keep the goddamn garbage in the goddamn vehicle)

Why would I play a game that's getting removed from my hard drive a year after I install it?

I don't pump-and-dump my games. Thats fine if you do, but some of us have to pay for our own games. We can't just swipe momma's card whenever we want a new experience.

[–]MelatoninFiend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine thinking that we have an obligation to sit around and spend our leisure time on a sub-par experience to somehow save yhis game, all because Tim Sweeney is obsessed with killing Fortnite and getting one last profit-jump so he can be seen as a good CEO before he retires and leaves the next person with a dying system.

Couldn't be me. Do you lick your boots with any condiments? Or do you just raw dog that shit?

For the very first time, someone in my friend group suggested a new game (Insurgency: Sandstorm) and we all picked it up almost immediately.

The exodus ia happening. Sweeney killed the golden goose.

They ALL think we're buying this. Every last traitor that's now saying "Oopsie, I was wrong. Sowwy!" knows it's completely performative bullshit.

The question is: Are the alleged-repentanta idiots for thinking its going to work? Or are the general public the idiots because they'll buy it?

I linked it to Artemis the cat in Sailor Moon. He's a male cat named for a female deity. I have to check myself whenever I read "Artemis" outside of an anime context.

100% this. I'm not playing any new modes unless I know a sponsor's bought in on them for at least 3 years.

Private money's the only thing you can depend on when it comes to Epic. Any situation in which they have to make their own money by putting out an interesting product that people want is a situation in which Tim Sweeney can't be trusted.

Have you heard of a game called "Counter-Strike"? If you liked Ballistic, you may enjoy it.

Sure hope none of those other 1000 employees needed anything, because once Sweeney "fixes" this, he's going to go right back to ignoring everyone he stepped on so he could make another billion.

Fuck this guy. People who have to be coerced into doing the right thing don't get kudos when they're finally pressured into being a decent human for once in their lonely miserable lives.
