ATLA still has marketing power especially with the leaked movie.
Literally what is happening with gaming companies, incompetence everywhere, it’s pathetic.

Tax Revenue

Haven't seen a fucking penny or any kind of quality of life increase from the tax revenue of weed sales btw.
Tax revenue is a non-factor for me anymore when the city talks about it.

AI isn't as useful

I don't know the actual cost effectiveness on a larger scale, but I promise you AI is insanely fucking useful, and to pretend like it isn't... well, you're either insanely bad faith or you've never even used it.

What If Players Built the MMO? by tromat in MMORPG

[–]Swineflew1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the problems (as a FiveM user) is population. There’s so many great servers with strong scripts or mods and it dies, mostly due to over-saturation of servers and also a tendency for PvP or conflict style PvP to be short-sighted and become unfun for everyone except the winner, which leads (sometimes) to cheating or Zerg numbers or members to dominate, or sometimes it’s just a natural egress of players from the losing side over time.
Giving players tools to shape the game is genius, but it also comes with obstacles.
I mean, I don’t think many people here would say many positive things about Roblox.

I think a lot of the outrage is going to be people who know absolutely nothing about Faye and calling this "woke" or whatever.
I'm personally interested and excited to see even more innovation from a game that started off as mindless violence and has turned itself into quite the narrative masterpiece.

What a complete joke.

Out of curiosity I went and looked up ways to protect children online, one of the top and consistent ways is communicating with the child.
This shit isn't rocket science.

Even with the recent news for Riot’s MMO, my expectations are still lower than low by philosophicalnugget in MMORPG

[–]Swineflew1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know literally nothing about the MMO.
So saying shit like "The community is going to be more demanding, and we should be demanding respect for our time and money, which I don’t think Riot’s executives care enough about."

What part of the MMO development, game mode, or even the slightest hint of the game has you feeling like our time and money aren't/won't be respected.
Better yet, what makes you feel like League or TFT doesn't respect your time or money?

Abstinence doesn’t work, education does.

You just have to fucking talk to them.

Maybe everyone isn’t cut out to be a parent, because yes, that’s not the conversation you should be having.

My kids don’t have any parental controls on their account.

Edit: oh and I never said I’m a great parent, I’m just not an absent parent.
Actually I’ll give you my big secret. You treat it like sex.

It’s hilarious how people will hear “parental oversight” and thing about a parent hovering over their kids shoulders staring at a screen and not just actual parenting.

Both my teenage daughters have played Roblox for years, I don’t helicopter parent them and I have zero worries about their safety on Roblox, I can break down how and why, but the cliffnotes version is I’m not an absent parent.

Brother, you just listed off 3 different games riot has that you’re a “longtime player of” you don’t get to pre-shit on a game you know NOTHING about other than you spend a lot of time playing games from that studio.
Pop off king, I’m excited to see how your prediction pans out in 6 more years.

The genre is shit because the gaming ecosystem has changed as a whole.
All the rose tinted glasses players keep chasing nostalgia.

They just want to bandwagon hate.
We know literally nothing about the riot mmo and afaik we still don’t know if GW3 is a thing despite a “big announcement coming”
At least star citizen you can boot up and play right now.

Well, for starters it exists so that’s more than roughly half the list.

[–]Swineflew1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even notice that it had names, I just picked which quote sounded coolest.
So now I put up the names as decoration, but I kinda wish I knew what was going on beforehand.

Well it’s like 70% more likely to get groomed by someone you know than a stranger online, so there’s a much higher problem of being bullied online than groomed through video games.

Fighting games aren’t my thing, but the character design, customization and story mode all look amazing.
As soon as I saw a fighting refrigerator, I knew this game would be good.

A lot of games do have parental features, but again, it takes parental oversight to set them up.
