  Yeah I’m concerned about that.

  Please be reasonably priced

  Well, I mean, I don’t advocate for anyone to subscribe to Gamepass for a couple different reasons.

  But, like…yeah? Like, why would you shit on pricing coming down? That’s objectively good for the end consumer. It’s always up to each individual to decide if they want to pay, but for anyone who does or is considering, this is a good sign. Unless you exclusively did it for COD I guess, but that’s a different issue.

  But, why? I’m not defending their actions, but why do their actions have anything to do with you enjoying it?

  Well try aren’t brute forcing 150 chars, that’s for sure, but don’t mistake that as the same as “they’re not getting in”.

  using it correctly

  I’m not entirely sure what you mean here, as I think a lot of games use it well. I do wish more games would though. The adaptive triggers are so fucking cool.

  What statistics that they show you for year in review are very very wrong?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Evercade Nexus - Announcement Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also seems like the cartridge system is prime for getting sued by companies.

  Why?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please help me remember the name of a game.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally any more information than that would be helpful. Genre? Graphic style? What console?

  Also, try TipofmyJoystick community. Genuinely made for this.

  That’s a shame. I have it on the wishlist but I admit I didn’t feel super grabbed by it. I hope the devs can land on their feet elsewhere, there’s a lot of talent there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Rumored Xbox Game Pass Tier Includes Only First Party Games⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey you know how we haven’t made a great first party game in over a decade?

  I personally don’t think anyone should pay for xbox game pass, but this is a bit of an exaggeration imho. Xbox Game Studios have published some great games in the past decade. Among them, in no particular order: * Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition * Age of Empires 4 * Psychonauts 2 * A couple of Forza games * Ori and the Blind Forest * Ori and the Will of the Wisps * Hellblade 2 * Grounded * As Dusk Falls

  I have a feeling the folks at Owlcat were Mass Effect fans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Jason Schreier] AAA game budgets estimated around $300 million. These budgets are almost entirely dev salaries + overheard and have nothing to do with executive compensation (which is mostly stock)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry that I was not more clear. The company is paying the employee 120k gross, yes, but then also paying other things behind the scenes like other taxes and unemployment insurance, etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Jason Schreier] AAA game budgets estimated around $300 million. These budgets are almost entirely dev salaries + overheard and have nothing to do with executive compensation (which is mostly stock)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And taxes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google's Gemini will make its way into Dragon Quest X to power a "Chatty Slimey" AI companion, Square Enix has announced⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  GenAI is a fancy text predictor. It can and will make shit up, because it simply does not know what it is saying. Why would an assistant the likes of which you suggest not just be scripted “traditionally”?

  You don’t have to like Fortnite or even Epic to sympathize with 1,000 people losing their livelihoods.

  I grew up with them when they were still two different companies and contrary to most fans, I still like their games.

  Long press is by far more annoying to me than the disguised loading screens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've had enough shimmying along ledges and squeezing through cracks sideways to last me a lifetime⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The user is correct in that the modularity of a home PC is not the most efficient way for the electronics to communicate, and therefore some performance is lost.

  I would also point out that while a PS5 has known, defined specs that a developer can plan for, a PC could be pretty much any specs. And while yes the dev can state a minimum spec requirement, but if they are launching on PC they are going to want to target a wide audience.

  A promise from Microsoft? Now that’s a valuable thing indeed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crimson Desert Surpasses 2 Million Sales, Fixes And Improvements Planned⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll wait for all the fixes and improvements, then.

  Does look like a dope game though, probably a 50% off pick up for me in a year.

  First cousins share a grandparent.

  Second cousins share a great grandparent.

  Third cousins share a great, great grandparent, and so on.

  Nth cousin = greats + 1.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Using genAI to make fun of genAI sure is a position to take.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Street Fighter 6’s Latest DLC Ending Is Upsetting Fans Because Alex Marries His Sister-Cousin⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That would be first cousin and step sister, actually. A second cousin and step sister would be your dad marrying your mom’s cousin’s daughter.
