No, thank you.

Mine is currently working fine and without a hitch and has been for a while now since the failed attempts at punishing adblockers. I can’t vouch for everyone, but you may be right about your account being flagged for some reason.

And it’s always so awkward when he’s continually telling people they are so intelligent. Or when he asks people if they like their job, while having a camera in hand, at their job, while he’s scrutinizing every single aspect of their work. He does that so fucking often to everyone he meets it’s kind of uncanny. I can’t remember anyone else who’s made me feel that way by simply talking. I guess he’s a youtuber and he might do it purposefully but I don’t think I would ever enjoy being in his presence IRL. He kind of bullies people with very uncomfortable phony kindness and triggers some thing in my brain that I only get with very manipulative people usually. And a lot of people he interacts with just don’t engage with his hype and look like they are in fight or flight mode.

But anyway didn’t want to turn this post into a Destin study. I hope Dianna gets well soon.

I have done all of this. but thanks for posting this. Somehow venting about this kind of anonymously did more help than anything you just listed.

Destin just creeps me out all the time to be honest. I like his content but I just cannot believe that’s who he really is.

No, not even remotely. I actually feel worst than ever. But I also feel so paralyzed and hopeless.

I think samurai champloo would be amazing.

Probably because they wanted to show the variance over time which one pie chart cannot visually show. And it’s easier to compare a circle vs a circle than a pie chart.

Not all of Starfield is randomly generated. This specific example is from one of the main big cities that are definitely hand built. The random stuff is mostly deserts and outposts like what players can build. So even according to your standards, this is a correct and legitimate comparison.

They’re not thinking about these things as games, generally, but specifically how they’ll be perceived by the Xbox audience. It looks to me like they discounted BG3, at least in part, because it couldn’t split-screen on series S. They’re thinking about games you play on the couch, in a group, maybe during a party - not games you play solo for hours or days on end.

And that’s what I mean. They are wrong on all counts because they don’t understand what makes a game successful. They only consider the monetary success of their own. They also think “xbox” audience is somehow different and want something else than other platform users. Sure couch is cool but let’s not pretend that this is really how people are gaming nowadays. People like all games when they are well made, complete from the start and just fucking work. Throw a bit of good writing in there and you have a GOTY contender. BG3 is just far above that only and that’s why I’m saying if anyone an MS looked into BG3 and Larian and chose not to sign, they are incompetent idiots.

How could joysticks replace keyboards apart from forcing you to use a virtual keyboard with a joystick? Is everything else about computing the same or is it some form of fantasy joystick centered computer? Anyway what’s more important is that joysticks already exist in computing and we know they serve a specific purpose and really suck for the rest cause we tried. We designed the computer after all so we control how we interact with them. Not like we found them in the wilds and they somehow only had a joystick.

I know, but DOS existed. Larian was already well known for their sprawling rpgs. BG3 isn’t an outlier here. Point is, it was foreseeable if you actually looked and knew what to look for.

And all of this is because Microsoft execs, or almost any exec, cannot even judge the market they are in properly. They only understand once the money starts coming in, after the selling data is compiled, and then claim it was impossible to predict. They have 0 foresight and imagination. They just cannot fathom a new game can be successful if someone involved hasn’t already succeeded to the same level. They don’t understand progress and cannot see signs of a good product if you don’t tell them how much it sold.

Look at the product, not just the previous financial success. Look at the following (YES kickstarter success IS A GREAT SIGN IT WILL SELL). Look at the actual fucking game they are making since you had three years to check it out before. But they don’t because they don’t get it, they don’t understand their own market. They, like always, based their entire opinion on past financial success and some arbitrary “niche market” they invented anyway. The market is much, MUCH wider that this. Every single gamer in the world plays a wide variety of genres, that is not what makes a game succeed of fail. The quality of them is.

Nobody who looked into BG3 before had doubts about this game’s quality. Hell a lot of us are not here because of DnD but because Larian already made extraordinary games in that genre.

They are just proving they don’t understand what makes games sell at all then. Anybody who had experienced the early access (they had like 3 years to do so) knew this was a special game. Anybody who tried the DOS series also knew and are probably here because of those anyway. The success of this game was obvious way before it came out. This is just another proof that the people running the business have no idea of what they are doing. They just cannot judge of stuff before they have numbers and it’s why we should get rid of these leeches. So again, the only surprised people are the idiots that don’t understand shit about modern games.

That’s sandalous.

That looks like a consulting firm power point. This is tips to sell games not toake them better.

That’s not the point of the tomb.

I was speaking of aero issues mainly, not only wet racing. And is there really no other places where cars could be lightened? Like the whole hybrid drivetrain has to be heavier than two thin carbon fenders no? So sorry but I feel like the weight argument is so easily worked around I can’t believe it’s the only reason. And they would be what 30kg and that’s pushing, this is not formula breaking weight.

And formula e has wheel fenders.

Ahhhh traditions. The anchor of progress. I would really like if someone gave me a proper reason as to why open wheels are desirable apart from, and even that would be a stretch, looks. Not that it would be proper anyway.
