Is that not the purpose of a beta? That doesn’t seem like a good sign.

This better not make people dismiss my depression because I run cold…

And the Sony account requirement will be reimplemented in 3… 2… 1…

Holy shit. Completely forgot about rollcage. Wild to me that anyone remembers that game enough to make a spiritual successor.

Hey man, sometimes you try a bunch of shit. None of it works. Then you try a fade out and it does.

Often times I find that songs sorta just write themselves. And sometimes the right ending is just a fade out.

Does miyamoto do business stuff? Always thought he was the creative guy.

Was going to be upset because I played the game through game pass and bought the Lego dlc for it but not the actual game. Looks like they’re sending out free copies of the game if you are in the same boat. So that’s good.

Anyone know if and how this might affect Grayjay or revanced?

According to who? Halo CE anniversary is higher fidelity than the original sure. But the art direction is all over the place and not at all consistent with the original style. Not to mention the fact they changed the geometry of everything without actually changing collision. Making shots hit walls/trees/objects that are no longer in that spot.

They also just took enemy models straight out of halo reach without any consideration for how those designs match the original games aesthetic.

If you like it, great. I’m happy you’re able to enjoy it. But as someone who grew up with the original the anniversary version was a slap in the face and a blatant cash grab.

That being said I don’t have much faith that a new remake would be much better.

Surprised anyone has even seen that. Was a really fun watch.

It doesn’t look like the Utz girl aged all that gracefully. To be fair that’s what happens when you don’t get enough sleep.

Interesting. It’s maybe been like a year or so for me. I have had to repatch a couple times. Good to know I got more bullshit to look forward to.

What’s wrong with youtube vanced? It works just fine for me.

I genuinely do not get why people get so angry about the color of a character’s skin in a work of historical FICTION. I dgaf about things being historical accurate in my video games. Does the guy look cool? Yup he sure do. Is the game gonna be good? It’s Ubisoft so probably not. But let’s assume that it will be for arguments sake.

Why is it so important to you that the character not be black? Assassin’s creed as a franchise has been around for like what? Almost two decades now? And in all that time we’ve basically played as only white characters (with some exceptions). I don’t see anything wrong with increased representation in works of art or entertainment. The more representation we see in media for any minority group the less likely it will be for the kids that grow up playing these games to grow up as racist assholes. And if you belong to a minority group, seeing someone with your skin tone represented in media will make you less likely to grow up with internalized self loathing. Like you might if all you see in media is the white dude saving the day.

At the end of the day these are works of entertainment. Their purpose isn’t historically accuracy. It’s entertainment and escapism. If we can’t escape racism in a fucking video game how tf are we supposed to prevent it in real life?

And music streaming is only as good as it is because artists are getting completely shafted at every turn by both the streaming services and the record labels.

Damn. Hifi Rush was probably my favorite game last year. And that’s saying a lot for a year absolutely packed with crazy good releases.

Hopefully the devs maintained the rights to the IP, though I somehow doubt it, so they can still make the sequel under a different umbrella.

Yes, let’s try to pick apart the one hyperbolic statement he made and completely ignore all of his other valid points. Let’s also link a very biased article about Wikipedia that has absolutely nothing to do with anything as some sort of proof that China is some bastion for workers rights. It’s not like they literally force people into labor camps simply for being minorities or anything.

The US is far from perfect but let’s not pretend they somehow have worse labor rights than freaking China.

I mean, it’s not like cats have a reputation for being kind. Something tells me that the most efficient predator the world has ever known wouldn’t make the best leader.

Eh SDR to HDR is a waaay bigger jump than Mp3 to FLAC. Assuming of course you have an actual HDR display. And not one of those “HDR” displays that only have like 400 nits of peak brightness.

But then how could poor Nvidia ever hope to sell any more gpus waaaay above MSRP??
