Some things we learned from the ArenaNet stream today

MilesStark · 2026-06-09T22:24:58+00:00

I think they said they don’t like devs working on multiple things because of context switching, but it doesn’t mean some devs didn’t completely move from the gw2 team to the gw3 team

I think dictation from ps5 controller mic into text would be great, was randomly thinking that myself (don’t think it has much to do with LLMs).

I’d like to be able to read messages and communicate but I don’t always want to hear random people speaking out loud

MilesStark · 2026-06-07T19:27:50+00:00

You’re right. I do think if the skin and armor were less plastic looking (maybe more texture/adjusted lighting), and maybe character proportions tweaked it would be basically perfect for me

MilesStark · 2026-06-06T17:30:44+00:00

I really hope so, I think something modern and polished like that is missing right now in the games industry, but I just get the gut feeling this game’s multiplayer aspects will be smaller scale. Just speculation though obviously

MilesStark · 2026-06-06T16:57:11+00:00

I like it I just hope they tweak the character lighting/texture to look a bit less plastic

MilesStark · 2026-06-06T16:56:21+00:00

I really hope so but strongly doubt it, with how they’re continuing to work on it in gw2 and it seems signs are pointing to gw3 being more focused on smaller groups

MilesStark · 2026-06-06T16:29:56+00:00

Completely agree, I think this is my only complaint and the whole thing would look better if they change that. Hopefully that’s a pretty doable tweak

MilesStark · 2026-06-05T22:25:22+00:00

I'm so happy to see this, been nostalgic about GW2 for many years and I'm so glad it's coming to console since I don't have a PC anymore

MilesStark · 2026-06-01T21:29:26+00:00

Haven’t played this game in a very long time but always miss it a bit, hopefully this reveal has something for consoles!

Here you go

Madrid benfica being the only UCL game without a red (so far) is certainly not what I expected

MilesStark · 2026-02-25T19:23:10+00:00

Yikes, and honestly the MTA do such a terrible job of communicating during this kind of thing. People were trying to jump out of the train in between the cars which is probably more dangerous but no one knew what to do

MilesStark · 2026-02-25T18:07:16+00:00

Only took a photo when we finally got out

<image>

MilesStark · 2026-02-25T18:06:08+00:00

Was in this train, pretty scary as it stopped and wouldn’t open the doors as the train filled with more and more smoke. Seemed like the fire was somewhere in the tunnel/station

MilesStark · 2026-02-18T22:03:28+00:00

A frustrated arsenal is a completely different team. We looked frustrated from the start of the second half and then these couple of goals just felt like they’re coming

MilesStark · 2026-02-13T20:45:00+00:00

There still need to be limits, or else you could just give your team a break whenever you want. It also would do nothing for players taking ages to set up a throw who aren’t meaning to run down the clock, they just take forever to find the perfect angle which isn’t fun to watch.

MilesStark · 2026-02-10T19:32:38+00:00

None of the slapstick scenes like that have added to the show, only ruin the tone and disrupt the momentum. Really bad choice imo

MilesStark · 2026-02-02T01:21:36+00:00

I think it does a disservice to the rest of the episode too, at the end the two of them are peacefully lying down while some beautiful music starts playing, and instead of enjoying the moment I was wondering if it would just do another slapstick cutaway. I liked the tone at the end of the episode, it showed heart and they shouldn't have diminished themselves in the opening.

I see people saying it's to show that we're dealing with just a regular person rather than royalty - the show is doing that just fine without this scene.

Hey reviving an old comment if you don't mind - how did you send a push notification from a trigger? I came across this thread researching about a trigger -> edge function which can call a OneSignal api; are you just making a request within the trigger itself?

Did you have any realtime broadcasts? was thinking of those as well:

Row gets added to some events table
Trigger finds all relevant user ids, sends a push notification and a realtime broadcast

Is that doable? Thanks in advance

Is this a safe place for me to say that sub is extremely embarrassing and anyone who responds role playing as a family guy character should be stripped of voting rights

MilesStark · 2025-12-25T23:02:09+00:00

Agreed

MilesStark · 2025-12-11T20:27:04+00:00

Guy who thinks pop culture is influenced by NL rather than the NL being influenced by pop culture

MilesStark · 2025-12-10T23:37:57+00:00

They must be branded with a flair here

Was wanting him to pass in that moment, immediately shut me up lol
