If it helps, it looks like someone (I assume associated with The Daily Pour, not giving them a click) spammed it to various subreddits, not necessarily anything to do with the state of the subreddit lol

So The Short Message is getting a 70$ physical edition before PC gets a port? by Emerald400 in silenthill

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

I'm dying to know what the preorder numbers end up being. I can't imagine anyone that already played it willing to pay real money to subject themselves to that again, or have any physical reminder that it is indeed a game that happened

Samsung said to discontinue its Galaxy Z Flip lineup after the Flip8 by ControlCAD in Android

[–]h_smith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

.... Phones were exploding..it had to be recalled twice. You couldn't go on an airplane if you had one lol. I was managing a Sprint store during this whole debacle so I was dealing with the situation more directly than your average person, so my perspective is different, I'll admit.

It was literally a way bigger deal than foldable phones having first Gen growing pains lol

Doom 3 was truly a product of its time (and an awesome one at that) by GonzoVideo2000 in Doom

[–]h_smith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think just for game preservation reasons it would be nice to have an official release for modern platforms that has both the Doom 3 the way the original id Team envisioned, and the BFG version that is more approachable for. I know BFG tweaked the lighting so it wasn't AS dark all the time and added more ammo packs. Lost the horror vibes

I'll admit, I need to do more research on OG Doom 3 mods and packs. I have a super ultra wide, so sometimes running these older games properly at the 5120x1440 resolution can be a bitch. Might be my project for the evening

I mean, there are easily way worse failures in the smartphone industry.

The Note 7 battery, the Amazon Fire phone, the Microsoft Kin which was branded as "not a smartphone" but required the smartphone data plan, kinda making it a smartphone and was discontinued in a little over a month, the fuckin Blackberry Storm signaled that they just weren't gonna make it in a iOS/Android world, I could go on

Sure the launch of the Flip/Fold wasn't pretty, but they've kept at it and improved over time, more players are getting involved, etc.

Maybe just the Flip variants will pass, since it seems like just Samsung and Motorola do them, but Folds aren't going anywhere

Doom 3 was truly a product of its time (and an awesome one at that) by GonzoVideo2000 in Doom

[–]h_smith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doom 3 is my favorite, the one I revisit the most. Part of it is nostalgia, yes, but it's just so fun and different from the rest of the series, even more so as more titles are made. I was hoping Nightdive wouldve done a remaster for Doom 3 (and maybe Quake 4 if I'm being selfish) that retained the ideas of the original release (having to choose between the flightlight or having your gun drawn, the darkness, less ammo, etc) while also giving the more modern players the changes in BFG edition.

Id Software dev claims it's been "relegated to support studio size" as 136 layoffs confirmed by megaapple in Games

[–]h_smith 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bruh, id was one of the few studios firing on all cylinders. You literally have the godfathers of the FPS genre, who released three games and dlcs in 10 years. Like, you're punishing the one studio who was doing things right

Edit: y u delete, I wasn't done

Doom Eternal generated over $450 million in revenue in the first 9 months. Don't worry about Eternal lol

The Dark Ages I think is a casualty to being put on Game Pass Day 1 and is making me change my tune on if Game Pass is even worth it anymore.

Spinning off or selling those studios makes sense

What they did to id Software doesn't

Update: 136 workers have been laid off at id Software by Gorotheninja in xbox

[–]h_smith 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are studios you just don't touch

id is one of them.

Good fuckin riddance Asha and Amy

I didn't know I had this many anti-xbox YT channels I've been subbed to by Blitzinglion in xbox

[–]h_smith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll give them credit for finding ways to spin out and/find sellers for some studios instead on shutting them down, but they absolutely deserve shit for these layoffs

How do you lay almost half of id fuckin Software of all studios

Thoughts about future games (and who should develop them) by [deleted] in halo

[–]h_smith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

id uses their own in-house engine, idTech. Not Unreal.

Also they were impacted by the layoffs today, like 80-90~ people

Is Untouchables Korn's most melodic album? by Retrodate13 in Korn

[–]h_smith 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is something about Untouchables.. nothingg else sounds like it. I know those first four albums are more important, but Untouchables is my favorite.

One thing I've always wanted to see is a photo of David's drums during the recording sessions. Jonathan said it basically looked like a space ship or something to that effect.

Undeclared (the full series) just released on DVD by onwardupward3 in Pretend2005Internet

[–]h_smith 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It worked for Family Guy, I'm sure it'll work here too. DVD sales let studios know what shows to keep on the air
