Pathetic thinly veiled bribe

Coward. You held the bastard in contempt 9+ times for fuck sake

If you enjoy milsim games, I highly recommend GZW. Yes it’s pre-alpha but they ran out of money and were forced to go early access. They’ve since dropped a major update since that early access launch and me and my buddy have been having a blast.

This isn’t a run around and shoot people game like call of duty, the devs want this game to be very realistic and tactical. You can have a lot of fun with the right mindset both with friends and solo. The discord and community in general are usually quite welcoming so you could find fireteam members that way too.

Yes but China has been rolling out some impressive new ships that the US doesn’t have for awhile now on top of their recent aviation announcements so people are getting a little concerned

At least he didn’t have to live to see Trump take office. This lame duck segment was bad enough

I almost believe it, not because he would have done any better but because America is too dumb racist and sexist

Yeah… we spent it all…. Not the corps who we have no control over…. Somehow I don’t think the sudokus made much of an impact

You truly need top racial talent to…. Stock shelves?

A tale as old as time, just like when those same goddamn telecoms took taxpayer money to modernize their shit and they simply didn’t instead and went with stock buybacks and the like.

Damn so many Nextel push to talk ads just came rushing back into my memory.

Also, how the fuck are AirPods “unreliable”??? I have a 1st gen pair that still works just as well as my other AirPod pro pair. They have hours of battery life and the case itself has an internal battery bank. How does profit have anything to do with wireless audio and the removal of phone jack??? They didn’t take away the jack to sell more headphones LMAO.

I hate wires and I’ll physically fight anyone who says we shouldn’t do wireless simply because some anssholes exist.

The pope is fine with Ukrainian children being murdered tho….

Fuck the pope and his piece of shit “religion”. Obligatory fuck Israel/IDF

I feel like it has to be a wink of some sort

Just in time for nothing to happen when trumps picks defang the FTC (who has already been defanged plenty in the past)

How exactly is the rest of AI a different conversation??? Were talking about the power requirements of running AI at scale and somehow you think it’s not only correct but implied that this convo should just be about colloquial parts AI and anything else is a totally different topic in regards to power consumption?

totally deserving of the hate it gets

Yeah so breakthroughs in chemistry and other sciences for example, deserving of hate eh?

Nothing good comes from AI… when all you know about AI is colloquial lmao

So if that’s true then why did nobody buy Callisto protocol then? If it’s not about deadspace but instead about EA being greedy, then why did one of the original deadspace devs go and make their own legally distinct version of deadspace with a big budget and a brand new studio — just to see it fall on its face and fail?

Maybe the market isn’t interested at the moment as they’ve already turned their nose up at DS remakes from EA as well as spiritual successors from the original DS devs??

Oh, but EA can’t market add-on content? As if DLC story and new modes doesn’t exist?? You seriously think EA is incapable of developing DLC and charging money for it???

They kinda did, and the person you replied to mentioned it — Callisto protocol

given the budget was like 160 mil, not exactly Indy but:

“The Callisto Protocol was a brand-new IP from a newly established studio, but he game received mixed reviews from critics, which may have affected its appeal to players. The PC version of the game was plagued by performance problems at launch, which may have deterred some players.”

True but even the original creator made a legally distinct game that was essentially deadspace and it didn’t sell well either…

Is it a problem with EA or with the IP (or state of the market for the moment) if it doesn’t do well with and without EA?

It’s an old series that has already tried remakes that failed and the original creator went and made their own deadspace but as a totally distinct IP and it too did not sell well….

But yes, EA can’t manipulate kids into gambling so that is totally the reason why they aren’t renewing the series…. Yeah it’s about tricking children into to gambling and totally not investing in something the market has clearly shown to be not interested in at the moment.

Lastly, yeah, EA is a piece of shit for using mtx and the like to trick people in general into chasing bullshit, but I think it doesn’t help anyone to regurgitate unrelated claims whenever possible.

When they’re pushing lootboxes into kid games, then cry about it there. This has nothing to do with that.

People are sick of remakes, remasters and endless sequels over original content, so EA says okay (given that their last deadspace was a remake that didn’t sell well), and now we have the other side of the pendulum where everyone’s up in arms because they didn’t renew an existing series that has seen a long term drop in interest and revenue….

Why is anybody even remotely surprised
