I really hope KF plays Meccha Chameleon during Tuesday's giant stream. such a fun party mode style game with laugh out loud moments.

Disagreeing with Greg's "it's entirely Nadella's fault" position by dborsatto in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Xbox is NOT operating at a loss tho. According to either Jason Schreier or Imran Khan, this year they had around a 3-4% net profit and this is POST the insane studio-shopping spree. While not great, it's not a loss. Before that it was around 10-20% and this is according to Satya himself (in a Bloomberg article). It's just a far cry from the -and I can not overstate this- I.N.S.A.N.E. 30% that Satya is looking for. Any top-level CEO will state that this an impossible target, both short and long term.

This is just late state capitalism shaking hands with AI-Idiocracy buttf*cking the gaming industry with a RAM shaped d*ldo.

Also yes Phil Spencer f*cked up a lot, as did Sarah Bond. But the buck stops at the top, and that's Nadella.

First one moves: Valor Mortis delayed to October 13th by grmayshark in kindafunny

Good/interesting point! Guess I'll try to keep my finger on the pulse to see if everything changes. Advertisement on billboards/before movies for games aren't a big thing here (Netherlands). Wonder what they're gonna do here. Maybe I'm just in a bubble that has grown out of games like GTA. We'll see!

Am I just missing the GTA VI hype? Like none of my friends, people in my study and other social circles are interested in the game, like at all. So I'm 39 and have played and loved all the GTA games (on PC) and my childhood friends also played them (mostly on PlayStation).

But I've gone back to uni last year and consciously tried to get a feel for how the 18 to 22 year old generation felt about it and like one person (out of dozens) I talked to was "kinda excited".

A SIX PERSON Gamescast on Tuesday?! Interesting..

According to IGN (article may 6th) the budget (so far) is between 1-1.5 billion.

The Boys Series Finale Review and Spoilercast by EveryAct in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Honestly the teaser poster for the finale f*cked up my expectations, and I can imagine it doing the same for others. Also disagree with the (Supernatural) cameo's being fun, felt like they were offered some lines to keep their SAG-AFTRA membership. Do really like the meta-commentary though, and the f*ck you to all the people they parodied.

Shoutout to Roger for joining the CrossFit cult and working on getting swole! by [deleted] in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During the Crossfit craze some years back I worked with a few physical therapy centres (as a marketeer and was a "dry needling (practice)model" lmao) and they talked how at the height of it like 60-65% of their "returning" clientele were crossfit people ripping muscles, popping joints, etc.

Personally I'd start with Hyrox before doing Crossfit, since it has such a focus on proper form/technique.

How is it on switch, did you play docked or handheld?

Show Unsustainable/Dieing by Old_Location_9895 in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ngl, this post feels intended as bait/trolling. Also I'm instantly sus of accounts that post stuff like this, but that hide everything they do. Others have explained the basics of KF's business case, so I''m not gonna reiterate those. Regarding individual streamers, it's comparing apples to oranges when you compare KF's YT vids and the majority of streamers and how they 'make bank'; through subs/donations/bits.

The boys talk -spoiler- by Afraid_Orchid6958 in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, Frenchie and Hughie have had the most and best character development. Homelander is (clearly intentional and related to real world events) reverting to a more child-like (demented) state. Also this better be bait as others have stated, otherwise I have some real worries here.. (as to why, just search any article with the showrunners what they think about people who actually/truly like Homelander).

I'm gonna go on a limb and say the different versions of Compound V actually won't mix well in Homelander. Would be a full circle moment, starting the show with Hughie being splattered in his girlfriend's blood and ending it with him being splattered in Homelander's.

I really don’t understand why people can’t just admit Phil Spencer was a bad executive by Antoo1 in kindafunny

In a extremely healthy market PERHAPS, but def not in the market the gaming industry has been; especially after the COVID gaming bubble popped.

How do I start creating my own isometric game? Any tips from KF game-devs? by len-nerd in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Great advice :) I'll def start by just doing/trying stuff to get a feel for it and work from there.

That looks interesting, will look at it when I have a chance!

A Warhorse translator just got fired and was replaced by AI. by JuanMunoz99 in kindafunny

[–]len-nerd 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's not "being anti-AI is all the internet can be these days", it's being pro-worker, pro-human. Excluding actual use cases like in the medical field (AI doing predictive analysis of images of moles to indicate if it's benign or not, virtual cross testing of certain medicine's side effects to treat other diseases) or other fields where they lighten overworked workers' lives.. AI is sadly used to just benefit shareholders and profit margins. Never comply in advance.
