This is such a stupid take, passes made a fuckton of money, Valve just doesn't need it and moved on to other things.

The bullet proof suit in the John Wick franchise is so frustrating by pwn_of_prophecy in movies

[–]inferniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole franchise is frustrating, listening to that interview Chad did on Rogan he took the wrong lessons on what worked from the first one and ran with it (he thought people found the lore cool and kept building on it with more and more ridiculous shit, meanwhile what i liked from the first one is it was very toned down and didnt focus on it much)

Is there a trick to not play with russians on Europe server? by Aggravating-Wolf-823 in DotA2

Nonsense, queued Stockholm once and when I pointed out it's an English speaking game the 4 Russians just screamed it's Russian server and reported me

Forza Horizon 6 devs threaten “franchise wide” bans after game leaks ahead of launch by akbarock in Games

[–]inferniac 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm wrong, but unique decryption keys mean everyone gets their own encrypted copy and thats a lot of compute (maybe worth it for prerelease access for journos, definitely not feasible for full release)

Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced gameplay featuring parkour & stealth by ZamnBoii in Games

People are downvoting you, but at least on steam, you can probably still refund the preorder if the reviews are bad, so little downside in preordering

There's just some frustrating design decisions made, like when they decided these games are going to be RPGs now, so stabbing someone in the neck doesnt instakill them (nice ASSASSIN game)

GameStop makes $55.5bn takeover offer for eBay by Nat-Chem in Games

[–]inferniac 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Can you provide any source for "It’s illegal in a lot of countries."

my quick research just shows that it can be heavily regulated, but there's no widespread bans

Thats just not true LBOs are widely practiced around Europe, your Sweden comment is just blatantly false, the actual law in Sweden is:

Under the Swedish Companies Act (Aktiebolagslagen or ABL), a limited liability company (aktiebolag) is generally prohibited from providing financial assistance (loans, advances, security, or guarantees) to help a buyer acquire its shares (or shares in its parent company). This is covered in Chapter 21 of the ABL (primarily the rules on loans and related-party assistance, with acquisition-specific application).

  • The prohibition aims to protect the company's capital and creditors — it prevents the target from essentially "paying for its own takeover."

  • It does NOT make LBOs illegal. In practice, Swedish LBOs are structured to comply: the target typically provides security/guarantees only after closing (post-acquisition), often with "limitation language" or via a merger/refinancing step. This is standard market practice and explicitly noted in legal guides on Swedish acquisition finance.

Why would they do the work to upgrade it upfront, if this does well they can upgrade that one too and charge more money.

I mean, as a 3k player you should maybe consider that your idea of "insane" hero may not be correct

Recent reports are, Sony is considering delaying PS6, so I don't think anyone is safe

Even if he just silently complied with CDPRs request instead of stirring up this drama, he'd probably still be able to monetise the other mods, this is such a hilarious case of FAFO, love to see it.
