Really excited. Obsidian is one of the best studios around.
Even Grounded, a silly, b-team, honey-I-shrunk-the-kids game, had a surprisingly well written and compelling story that had me tear up at one point.

Imagine if they pitch it as Cyberpunk 2, complete with huge tech trees and stuff, so you start homeless thinking that you’ll grind your way up to a body modded god like the first one, but the actual realities and difficulties of being homeless mean that it’s impossible to ever crawl your way out, and at the end you realize that the only win condition you can hope for isn’t progression, but just survival. Now there would be a bleak artistic statement on capitalism, that would be hated by every player and make none of its money back.
But you don’t have to do those. I basically only ever do them by accident.
Yeah, I’m mid way through my first play through and the lack of birds and animals just feels lazy / a tech limitation covered up by lazy writing, not a real thing to care about that corpos did.
Otherwise the corpos in the story so far don’t seem that crazy bad or evil. Most of the time they enter the story it’s just you stealing something from them and then trying to get it back.
Honestly, GTA V had far more pointed social / political commentary thus far, even if this is a much better overall story.
No, this is just cynical and mean-spirited.
It was an individual developer talking on the podcast about what he wants the game to be, there’s no reason to think he doesn’t feel exactly the same way you do.
If you’re going to be cynical, be cynical about whether or not that messaging would make it through the layers of corporate beurocracy until it’s published, not whether the individual wants to do something meaningful, most do.
Because usually if you end up at the API reference in that situation it’s a code / project smell that other stuff is going wrong.
If I want to use a library to do something, you should be able to search for what you want to do + language / framework, find the library’s docs, follow the install instructions and then look through the highest level API / instructions and then just go from there.
If you find yourself confused at unhelpful API references that just means that they have badly written top level API docs, badly written intros, or quite probably just badly written APIs.
The allegation says nothing about steam keys. The lawsuit is alleging that they are contractually prevented from selling the game cheaper elsewhere.
According to Shotbolt, the developer and digital distribution company is “shutting out” all competition in the PC gaming market as it “forces” game publishers to sign off on price parity obligations - supposedly preventing them from going on to offer lower prices on other platforms.
Like the anonymous whistleblower who went to a lawyer and triggered this lawsuit?
If you have a point to make about why Valves is not abusing it’s monopoly position make it. Otherwise no one wants to hear your dumb ‘but the free market is always right’ statement.
Proof? What would proof look like?
Do you expect companies to just leak contracts they signed while under NDA?

It’s also [the face my cat makes when he’s found a good box.
I heard the latest preview was on Tatooine and immediately soured to the point of curdling.
I cannot express this clearly enough: Fuck Tattooine.
We’ve seen it. It has been done. Its a desert planet with less character than Dune. We get it. Enough. Stop with the Tatooine already, we don’t need anymore tattooine. I hate Tatooine so fucking much, I don’t care how easy sandy rock is to render, tattooine can burn in a pit until you’re ready to make another pod racing game.
In .NET to make a controller you just make a class that extends controller and then a public function that returns a ViewResult, JsonResult, etc.
No black box dependency injection required.
You work a job that uses PowerShell and you refuse to learn or use it. You are creating problems for yourself.

Or is this a battle I can pick to shield my self from ms
Read the post before coming to the comments to reply.
OP is asking on here about whether or not to pick this battle and fight his company over it. Yes, you are probably technically correct that a company can’t force you to install an authenticator app on your phone. However, that is a battle that you will have to fight with them that will accomplish essentially nothing if you win.
In Canada right now there is a major auto manufacturer that is being sued by the union over this very issue. It is a years long legal case that had to be escalated through the union, it’s lawyers ,and now arbitration. Does that not sound like a battle to you?
Because an object is good at representing a noun, not a verb, and when expressing logical flows and concepts, despite what Java will tell you, not everything is in fact, a noun.
I.e. in OOP languages that do not support functional programming as first class (like Java), you end up with a ton of overhead and unnecessary complications and objects named like generatorFactoryServiceCreatorFactory
because the language forces you to creat a noun (object) to take an action rather than just create a verb (function) and pass that around.
Yeah, and seeing the lowest bottoms of the human existence every time you scroll your newsfeed doesn’t make you more sensitive to it, it numbs you to it.
This comic is sad in the way that the Fry’s dog episode is sad. It’s devastating the first time you see it but the more you think about it the more you realize that there was/is no other message, they’re just saying death really sucks, and yeah it does, but that doesn’t mean it’s healthy to relive it over and over and over.
