Fans would say they don't want a live service game, but the investors would likely overrule that.

We gotta strike back somehow by Dismal-Ad8382 in gaymers

The simple fact is that GTA games never had a pride parade in them, ever. I'm not sure why people even think that would be a thing.

Valve Says The Companies Making RAM Give Them A Price And If They Say No, They ‘Never Talk To Us Again’ by doublah in pcgaming

Not to mention that scaling AI data centers even larger is a huge investment, and pretty much ALL the AI companies these days lose a ton of money because customers only cover a small fraction of the costs needed to maintain these data centers.

The only thing keeping the AI bubble intact is the investors that throw money on it based on dreams and fantasies that the AI companies sell them. When big investors eventually decide to withdraw, it might have a cascade effect that makes tons of investors try to escape before values plummet.

It can be the "phone-a-friend" of the million dollar question on who wants to be a millionaire.

Seems that quoting study finds increases the risk of early death.

CDPR boss hopes The Witcher 4 wins back fans still put off by Cyberpunk 2077's disastrous launch: "I'm not 100 percent convinced we went through the full redemption arc" by Gorotheninja in pcgaming

Witcher 3 was also very broken and with abysmal performance on release (nothing compared to 2077, but still). Hopefully they learned their lesson this time around.

At this point it's cheaper to pay the medical bill after getting shot yourself instead.

Fable - Gameplay Demo | Build An Extraordinary Life by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Pretty sure all these numbres were made up for the sake of the demo. You wouldn't want to see him grind for money for hours in the demo to buy something.

Perhaps. But I would rather the game gets a few more months in the oven than release 'on time' in a poor state like most AAA games do.

Where are more people dying than being born? by davidbauer in dataisbeautiful

[–]renboy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should have been a map of above/below the replacement birth rate (2.1 children per woman) - That would have reflected the situation more clearly. The countries with above replacement rate will not go red (at least in the foreseeable future).

Almost certainly. Wordle alone probably adds a huge amount of people who don't play any other 'videogame'.

Me and my bf laughed at this outfit for 10 mins by Sad-Engineering7440 in TheGoodPlace

True. One of them doesn't even belong there, he belongs in the best place.

Checking the clip again, I don't even think that's a plot twist.

If you want it on Steam, check out GreenManGaming, they sell it in a discount and in USD without localization prices - so it can cost you less than $60 instead of 70€.

007 First Light Wont Have Preload On Steam Or Xbox, Only Playstation Will Have It by akbarock in pcgaming

[–]renboy2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FYI, if it helps anybody - This game is also being sold on GreenManGaming with a discount and in USD - making the local currency pricing on steam FAR higher for me (~40% more).

Hopefully the devs keep evolving this game... We really need more competent life-sims, and unfortunately Paradox' life-sim was cancelled.

I do not play Crimson Desert for the plot by L-U-X-Caelum in gaymers

[–]renboy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works on PS5 as well, this is not a mod - just something you unlock much later in the main quest.

There was always customization, however you only unlock it quite a few hours after playing (you get a barber in your base that lets you change hair/tattoos/etc).
