Easy Red 2 is SO slept on right now relative to its quality, the work the team is putting in it, and its future potential

Always nice to see anothe ER2 enjoyer

I don’t remember names, but many users around here called this to the letter

Wanted Dead

But I don’t agree with the general perception that it is “bad”, because in all the aspects that actually matter for making an action game fun, it was actually really good. It just got blasted for being lacking (admittedly, very lacking) in production value because somehow we are still giving importance to that in the 2020s…

Well shit… The last time I saw memes about how ridiculous an Apple product looked, they were about the AirPods and they ended up being ridiculously popular.

It doesn’t matter how silly it looks to us at first, Apple could convince people that wearing dog feces on their face looks cool. Unfortunately.

Well surely this means that archive.org will be allowed to exist in peace, since it would be ridiculous to make the information and culture produced in the year of our lord 20fucking24 the most ephemeral it has ever been in human history, right?

Right?

oh my god

That’s true, I have to imagine a significant amount of the people driving the push for the IPO are only doing so to drive value up, cash out and vanish

I think there are a lot of extreme measures that would theoretically increase its profitability that they have not yet taken, most of which I have to assume are in the cards in the foreseeable future.

Most of them are, of course, measures that would severely impact user experience in a very negative way, but it’s clear at this point that they are drunk on hubris and believe users will stay no matter what.

those are some fat bois

because every additional layer of abstraction disrupts communication with the Machine Spirit even further

You can say that again, at this point of my career I’m convinced that the concept of pre-production is a myth.

Lord of the Rings Conquest without the stupid magic, without the stupid fire effects and with combat that doesn’t suck.

Also Lord of the Rings Total War but you can argue that it sort of exists through mods

Yeah, I think we are at the point where if it has a PS5 version, it’s releasing on PC sooner rather than later

Well, this is very specific, but the Windows 3D Builder repair tool is probably the best error fixer for 3D printing I have encountered, so at least they got that one right… I couldn’t believe it when I saw it actually worked as intended lol

goddammit even the silliest memes become real, I’m done with this reality

It’s fascinating in a certain way. Massing dudes armed with the spear, one of the most basic concepts for a weapon possible, remained viable for millenia; but massing tanks and planes, which are marvels of advanced engineering, has been made obsolete in a century. XX and XXI century progress has been absurd.

That MSoft will go back to earning exactly what they deserve for Windows installations

1. Reduction of fixed expenses

We will implement reduction of various fixed expenses at several group companies in relevant region, centered on the Creative Assembly Ltd. We expect to incur one-time expenses related to reduction of fixed expenses.

The only “reduction of fixed expense” necessary here is whoever was supposed to keep their finger on the pulse of the industry, yet still decided to greenlight such an obviously late-to-the-party pitch in such an oversaturated part of the market, and chose to waste the time of a studio that has a successful monopoly in an underserved niche and could have been contributing to that kind of project instead.
