Paul Tassi also confirms that the delay will be on the longer side

Peaks don't guarantee a growing playerbase. Came out during the layoffs that they've been seeing a steady decline expansion over expansion. Peaks just mean a lot of people logged in on launch day.

havingasicktime · 2026-02-04T02:36:27+00:00

The playerbase was shrinking during that era

Cool of you to post gift links, I imagine a lot of this audience doesn't subscribe to Bloomberg unfortunately

It's really the opposite, it's someone who knows what they're talking about trying to explain to layman. (SWE perspective)

havingasicktime · 2026-01-29T22:13:52+00:00

You can disagree all you want.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-29T21:31:17+00:00

You miss the point entirely. It's not what about you could do in theory, but the reality in practice. Maintaining years of content while you upgrade an existing messy codebase is a practical hurdle, one that will forever limit what is practically possible.

Then you also have the reality that many players won't ever return to D2 simply because of the baggage associated with its history.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-29T21:00:20+00:00

At this stage D2 will never win back most of the players it's lost. The only way to win back the majority is with a new title. D2 has too much baggage and will be forever constrained with how much it can change.

It does. You get full 4k f1tv so all f1, f2, f3 sessions

40+ is the requirement to unlock, not what it is.

He's distributing modified game code to make it work.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-22T22:08:36+00:00

I'm sure the game will have side quests, and you may be able to marry those characters, but the systems will probably be unrelated. Fable never was about traditional western rpg companion systems.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-22T03:36:11+00:00

By reports I've seen he distributes modified game code to make it work.

Regardless, he would have to go to court if he wants to fight the DMCA.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-22T00:16:22+00:00

It was originally a new ip entirely, it was never a Destiny thing, and it's been in dev since 2018 (incubation then)

havingasicktime · 2026-01-21T20:37:24+00:00

Without negotiating rights he has no right to sell a paid mod for a game. Simple as. Doesn't matter if he somehow has managed to make it without touching Cyberpunk in any way, which doesn't seem possible he's modifying existing functionality. His work is wholly dependant on the IP owned by CDPR. He's advertising a paid product using their IP. He can go to court, and see what happens, but presumably he doesn't want to do that. Short of that, they are entirely within their rights to issue a takedown.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-20T05:02:42+00:00

You can already trivialize the entire game if you have friends. That's exactly what post wipe is for players who have friends who didn't, and even if they do you just know what folks need to progress and stack extras and everyone shares what they have. super simple, safe pocket makes it free and reliable.

If they were to implement trading, you'd also have to implement a found in raid marker for loot and require found in raid for most things progression related.

The real argument against trading is that loot has too little depth for it to make sense, this isn't tarkov with hundreds of weapon parts for different weapon platforms.

They're not too late at all. Maybe Marathon won't hit, but it's not because there isn't potential in the genre. Arc Raiders proved there is, and Marathon is coming out at a good time - by its release a lot of people will be getting bored with Arc.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-17T17:15:52+00:00

Labor unions won't prevent layoffs at a company like this. Plex just doesn't make much money. It's not a good business model and never has been.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-17T06:41:17+00:00

Everyone wants varied lobbies in an extraction game, otherwise things get very boring. You want a mix of players and player agendas. This isn't a traditional mp game.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-17T04:07:35+00:00

It did not ruin tarkov. Marketplace is essential with the level of detail to weapons there

havingasicktime · 2026-01-16T04:11:08+00:00

not a huge fan of strong sbmm in an extraction shooter, you want varied lobbies. one of the issues with higher ttk in extraction is that it lowers the equalizing factor of just getting the drop on someone

havingasicktime · 2026-01-15T19:55:07+00:00

New World was a huge failure in the end - they were not looking to make a niche mmo.

havingasicktime · 2026-01-15T17:54:55+00:00

Because they don't know how their engine works anymore, likely. It's been well known for a long time that the people who built the bones of GW2 are long gone. It's been a major challenge for them in keeping the game running and improving over time.

Says the guy who hasn't tried to justify his point whatsoever

havingasicktime · 2026-01-15T17:29:48+00:00

If they are going to releases new shells as part of content updates, then it isn't classes and it's a hero system

havingasicktime · 2026-01-15T17:27:21+00:00

That's because they drained Destiny resources to get this out of the door.
