Not that I disagree a stable studio has it benefits for all the reasons you listed, but even in the best of times most AAA is still not a normal 9-5 environment. Your expected to crunch just for your team to be laid off immediately after releasing something. Those studios were shedding labor like snake skin even before these bigger cuts. AAA has also been creatively bankrupt for literal decades at this point, executive boards churning out the same game year after year, with lootboxes and micro transactions being their greatest innovations in recent memory.

I can agree we need stable studios, with leaders who prioritize their employees, creativity and passion - but come on, glazing these corpos as shepherds of some golden age of gaming is absurd. Innovation WILL continue without them.

Nice catch. Very hard to see against the snow

Split fiction was great fun for my partner and I, the story is mid but gameplay is probably the best action adventure coop I’ve played. It has so much variety to offer.

We’ll have to agree to disagree. To go through your points, spell check I don’t find particularly impressive. That was solved previously without requiring the power demands of a small town. Grammer, maybe - but in my experience my “LLM powered” keyboard’s suggestions are still worse than old T9 input.

I’ve had no luck troubleshooting anything with AI. It’s often trained on old data, tries to instruct you to change settings that don’t exist, or dreams up controls that might appear on “similar” hardware. Sure you can perhaps infer a solution, maybe, but it’s rarely correct at first response. It’ll happily run you through steps that are inconsequential to fixing a problem.

Finally, it might be better than indexed search NOW - but mostly because LLMs wrecked that too. I used to be able to use a couple search operators and get directly to the information I needed - now search is reduced to shifting through slop SEO sites.

And it does all this half assing while using enough power to justify dedicated nuclear reactors. I cant help but feel we’ve regressed on so many fronts.

Hell I’d almost settle for just “making it work”. No disclaimers, no bullshitting. Computers should be optimized and accurate. AI is neither.

To be faaaiirr ROG phones had lots of unique features. Dual USB, shoulder buttons, active cooling, high refresh screens years before competition… but they’re also priced higher than mainstream flagships which isn’t a great spot to be.

With numbers this bad, no chance he’ll get reelected!

Promises made, promises kept. Lul.

Don’t believe in God, until you’re standing at the pearly gates. St Peter hates this one weird trick

Here ya go, enjoy

You couldn’t leave, you’d be less than a territory, at best. You’ll get no representation, no voting rights and certainly no citizenship. We’d pillage your resources and you’ll live in a fucking shack to support my lifestyle. We won’t help you when a natural disaster strikes, we’ll ensure you can’t get the help or supplies you need in a famine. You and your future generations would die in the streets begging for sovereignty.

Stop advocating for this stupid position or it might just happen. Fair warning.

Get the FUCK out, specifically.

NSFL, but everyone should see it. Murderer.
