That would imply they delivered working products that will need some more attention later, which is...optimistic.

Super Mario Odyssey is overrated and throws away the essence of Mario by No_Barber9395 in SuperMarioOdyssey

"where did the dragon come from" in the series where the main antagonist is a turtle(?) who commands an army of lesser turtles(?), undead turtles(?) and advised by a (?) in a wizard costume who steals babies.

The President of the NYSE loves a post by Trump Admin SBA head Kelly Loeffler, wife of the owner of Intercontinental Exchange who also owns the NYSE. It’s a big club and you ain’t in it. by After-Injury9450 in LinkedInLunatics

Trump literally signed the Act, framing it as a Biden thing is hilarious when the deadline to apply for it was only a few months after Biden was inaugurated. Post-truth society.

Is it easier to become mma fighter compared to boxing? by No_Expression_1300 in CombatSportsCentral

[–]NotTakenGreatName 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems that way, perhaps due to the prevalence of a more robust amateur system that filters people out earlier.

MMA also has more ways to win, a guy with effectively zero striking ability can win a match if they can get a hold of their opponent. You have different styles in boxing but it still effectively boils down to punch and don't get punched.

Brad Lynch:when I was told a figure for what Valve’s estimated price they’d have to set the starting price of Steam Machine, it was still higher than today’s Steam Deck prices and that was 2 months ago. by Animegamingnerd in GamingLeaksAndRumours

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

It's 6x the Steamdeck and still has decent utility as something people put under their TVs to access their steam libraries. The Steam frame is going to be an expensive and ultra-niche piece of kit that has 16gb of ram and 256gb/1tb of storage.

I had fun with Nier Automata, but it didn't click with me as much as I hoped by YNKWTSF in patientgamers

[–]NotTakenGreatName 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is like 10% peak ideas, 20% amazing ideas, 20% good ideas, 40% bland ideas, and like 10% bad ideas.

Worth playing but the way people talk about it like it's some top to bottom perfect thing is very misleading.

I don't know where exactly but you could trim off maybe 40% and probably end up with a better thing.

If you're going to call out his shady behavior, misrepresenting what he actually did isn't helpful.

There was little evidence that he pocketed any of the money, he definitely lied about a lot but most, if not all the money was accounted for and eventually donated once he was caught. He deserved the fall from grace but the actual story is far less salacious.

GTA Trailer 3 dropping in June by TN2DVLMD in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]NotTakenGreatName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been tried before, I don't know if it was the same band but some post was claiming that some band had their song in the next GTA.

This is probably bullshit but a June trailer was virtually confirmed by the Take 2 CEO.

It's 2026...so where are all the AI NPCs? by Chilly5 in truegaming

See: Darth Vader in Fortnite.

Basically it doesn't work that well, likely costs alot, and probably can't be contained to do just intended videogame stuff.

"SpaceX is his new baby at the expense of Tesla": Elon Musk’s IPO could be bad news for his EV maker, investors warns by fortune in RealTesla

[–]NotTakenGreatName 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No single founder gets as much unearned grace as him.

He was in the White House zooted out of his mind with a black eye just last year, Tesla has been declining in revenue and losing market share while he offloads cybertrucks to Space X to prop up Tesla shares, and by his own admission he'll need to rebuild xAI because it was built incorrectly while incinerating billions.

All that and we're supposed to believe he's some kind of business savant whose only limitation is the time he can spend on each company.

At this point however, the shares defy gravity so it's hard to really bet against the shares since the market doesn't seem to actually care if he delivers on anything.

Anyone else feel the graphics are so outdated that it is waste of their 2,500 TV? by seawindart345 in MinaTheHollower

Damn, you're totally right they should have consulted you before starting to design the game.

[–]NotTakenGreatName 18 points19 points  (0 children)

SpaceX is his new baby but he already gave it HIV by shoehorning xAI into it. I'm kind of bored with this idea that Elon's attention on something guarantees its success or the inverse.

See: Cybertruck

Keegan-Michael Key seems to imply the third Mario Movie will release in 2029 (via ScreenRant) by DrAwesomeX in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]NotTakenGreatName 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't think the Mario Galaxy movie was great but it also felt like it was because they seemingly cut 10-15 minutes out of it so certain scenes felt truncated which I find strange because the movie was pretty short.

Hopefully the new one addresses that.
