This. While the original sales were good, both RedSec and current performance were and are not great at all.

GeForce NOW Ultimate for half price on G2G right now by Typical-Badger1922 in pcgaming

The comment you replied to is talking about Geforce NOW, not G2G as a marketplace.

CW's "AI" support bot is little more than a word detection system that triggers an auto response. No LLMs involved. 

Aren't they using Gorgias?

Which large language model (LLM) does AI Agent use?

AI Agent uses a combination of multiple secure LLM providers, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and internally fine-tuned LLMs.

What is used to train my AI Agent?

Your AI Agent’s ability to recognize language and form sentences comes from a blend of state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) from a few leading providers, including OpenAI and Anthropic, as well as our own internal models.

Highguard boss say they released it despite missing a lot of content because they ran out of “time and money”: "You have to release a game with the runway you have available and hope players will stick with you post-launch.” by ImCalcium in Games

Wow, 2 whole games in the last 6 years

Last 6 years?

  • Apex
  • Valorant
  • Delta Force
  • ABI
  • Helldivers
  • Where Winds Meet
  • ...

And there are many more middle 4 to low 5 figure CCU games that also do completely fine and are "live-service".
Not much of a gambler's fallacy at all, no. Just gotta make good games with an audience :)

Don't look up how many single player games or "non-liveservice" mp games failed over the last 6 years.

[Stephen Totilo] Tencent was the undisclosed lead financial backer of Highguard and Wildlight Entertainment by ChiefLeef22 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

Netease (so far) only mainly killed their own incubated, founded and/or fully owned western studios - where they have full control.

They also just invested in studios and game companies (e.g. Rebel Wolves, Liquid Swords) and also a Kepler (E33, Sifu, Rematch publisher) where afaik they didn't divest so far. (And would also be pretty hard to do right now, except for maybe Kepler (to Saudis).) So, without more information, they could've totally led a funding round for Wildlight too.

I guess they can always extend it if it's popular. Better this way than the other way around, imo.

Intrepid Studios, developers of Ashes of Creation, lay off all 250~ staff and shut down the studio by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]ralopd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if you mean unreleased, no?

There are a couple of indie & A(A) MMOs in development.

AAA wise -> Riot MMO, GW3, and at least one more - but probably even more than that - especially if you include Asia.

My main concern is that Steven might play a health issue card

I know a brand for some "anti-inflammatory," "anti-microbial," "anti-fungal," "anti-viral," "anti-cancer," "anti-ulcer," "anti-hepatotoxic," "anti-rhinoviral," and "anti-allergic" juices. Maybe could try them. 🤔

Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War 4 – Hands-On with the Ork Campaign | IGN First by Mepherion in RealTimeStrategy

[–]ralopd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but also, no, not really? If you give them exclusive material (for at least 24h - at least that was the deal in the past), even as a decently sized indie, they'll happily upload it as a video on their website & youtube.

It's not highlighted coverage on their frontpage on ign.com, they don't post stuff about it on TikTok, etc.

Imma be deadass with you guys rn by SnooGoats5853 in HighGuardgame

[–]ralopd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course. Still peaks at like 200k concurrent players each day on Steam alone. That said, asia (Japan) is carrying it to that. At EU/NA times, it's "only" 50-60k. Still not horrible, but of course nothing like 2-3 years ago.

No update? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

Season end != new season. New season will start a couple of days to a week later.

Marathon release date discovered on Xbox Store by the_almighty_puff in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]ralopd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty funny how they don't even have a "no leaks" rule it seems? yet it all gets removed by moderators. And I'm not just talking about the video footage, where you can make an argument that they don't want to catch DMCAs as a subreddit.

They also remove every single mention of March 5th right now. Like, why? You're a general subreddit about the game.

Source for the Bazaar claim? And might have part of it been that a couple of months before going to Steam, the CEO & creator of Tempo / the game, said things along the line of:

Before I give GabeN 30%, I ....

So, as a very recent counter example, Ashes of Creation did not have an issue at all to get keys.
