With out Tim it would never be the same even if the rights were not in limbo

A sequel to Arcanum that moves the timeline forward into the information age?
- Comment on Embracer to spin off Coffee Stain Group – remaining business to be renamed Fellowship Entertainment 5 days ago:
To answer your question yeah everything else is everything not going with coffee stain. From other sources I read coffee stain is spinning out and going independent and embracer is getting stock. So I expect an IPO soon.

If I’m reading this right it sounds that coffee stain Studios is being left alone for now. It’s just everything else that looks fucked.

Im pretty sure that was in Pitch Black. I was disappointed with the sequel but the Xbox/PC game where he is in Butcher bay was great. It sucks it got delisted.

I think editors are the ones that make the headlines i don’t think the person gets much say in headline. But yeah ooof it’s bad.
- Comment on What are some of the worst acted main or supporting characters in a TV series you've watched? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah apart of me wonders if it’s just type casting that she can’t break out of. But it’s on her to not try to push the boundaries of what she can do. Jack Quaid has the same problem but at least he is trying to break out of it even if the results are mixed.
- Comment on What are some of the worst acted main or supporting characters in a TV series you've watched? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah i don’t have a problem with her as a person or her orientation. She just seems like the standard nepobaby. That got setup to do everything from modeling to music to acting. I don’t know about the other stuff but her acting is flat like she is always reading her lines from a card just off screen her face flat all the time. Comparing that to someone like Charlize Theron where in some roles I can’t even tell that it’s her i just see her character.

Ruby Rose in batwoman was pretty bad.
- Comment on The End of ‘Andor’: How Diego Luna and Tony Gilroy Revolutionized ‘Star Wars’ Storytelling 2 weeks ago:
By revolutionized you mean go back to having complex multiple storylines that tell an overarching theme. That’s how you can tell TV writing is in such a sad state when doing what was normally the bare minimum before vs the lazy writing that’s no better than a lazy D&D campaign of go find the McGuffin that will stop the universe from ending or will destroy the universe take your pick. That we see in most franchise storying telling. I know it’s not everything and there is some good stuff out there. But star wars and star trek other than andor is boring as all hell.
- Comment on Why is coal and fossil fuels still used? 2 weeks ago:
Also there are a lot of nation states that have little to no natural resources other than oil. So if there is ever a day that oil how’s bust. Those nations will be irrelevant and their whole economy and purchase power on imports goes back 200 years.
There was a quote that is sometimes attributed to Sheikh Rashid but most likely not a real quote but it speaks the truth about those petostates.
“My grandfather rode a camel, my father rode a camel, I drive a Mercedes, my son drives a Land Rover, his son will drive a Land Rover, but his son will ride a camel”

As long as you are not doom scrolling the device itself is not the problem. We went from 10 devices doing different functions to 1 that replaced them all. So using that device to play games, to read books, watch tv, listen to music, take a photo. The problem is from the outside all those look like you are looking at a black rectangle.
- Comment on ‘Night Court’ Canceled By NBC After 3 Seasons 2 weeks ago:
See i find 6 seasons and a movie work best as long as the writers have their ending figured out before they begin the show we’ll really two are endings one to end the first season if the show doesn’t get picked up and the second ending to end the series.

You can link your steam to your Playstation account maybe that’s what you were thinking.

Not always the show would be boring if that was the answer every time.

Agreed it’s was a great horrible concert that didn’t have any pay off. It’s like he got to the end and was like let’s just kill everyone to end it.
- Comment on 'Andor' creator explains recasting major 'Star Wars' character with Benjamin Bratt 4 weeks ago:
Honestly it should not be that big of a deal just tell the story you need to tell with the resources you have. But for all i know the lore nerds will want some storyline that explains why Organa looks different. Like how’s we got the stupid storyline of why TOS Klingon’s have smooth heads and look human.
- Comment on How can we make lemmy have more relevance? 4 weeks ago:
It’s interesting you bring that up i think the star trek instance are one of the fewer instances that get federation right. They carved out their niche and stuck to it. I kind of wished we would have gotten more of them like that.
Like the comics instance or the retro tech instance. Like you would go to the retro tech instance to the C64 community. So it would be logical how everything is broken out. Like old school forms for different subjects but they can also blend by talking to one another.
So many just want to be generic catch all’s and it could be so much more.
- Comment on How can we make lemmy have more relevance? 4 weeks ago:
I could not agree more like the early web before it became popular enough for corporations to take notice and start exploiting it. Cherish being under the radar and enjoy the community that’s already here. More will come when they are ready just be ready to welcome them when they do.
- Comment on Are your parents "supposed" to be your role models? 4 weeks ago:
Also parents can still be role models even if they are shit parents. You just flip the script from be like these people to a list of what not to do.
The fact you are asking this question shows great self awareness and that’s half the battle right there.
- Comment on Oblivion remake is... really making it apparent how outdated Bethesda is in its approach to making games 4 weeks ago:
Just to clarify one thing while i agree with you on some stuff this is not a remake it’s a remaster. the OG game engine is running underneath and UE5 for just the updated models and terrain. The fact they are charging so much for it is what kills me. What this should have been is a $30 game of the year edition and maybe an discount or a free upgrade of you owned the original like they did with doom and quake remasters that nightdive did.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
The architecture uses two distinct bus subsystems: the chipset bus and the CPU bus. The chipset bus allows the coprocessors and CPU to address “Chip RAM”. The CPU bus provides addressing to conventional RAM. So it’s way different than any other machine at the time. So doing this before you got your hands on the machine to debug and test on is very impressive.
- Comment on How do some communities get like 50 members minutes after its creation? 5 weeks ago:
Person creates community for an agenda purpose. Creates a bunch of accounts or has a following on another platform to create accounts for the purpose of making the community more active than it really is. To reinforce said agenda. Thank goodness we have the ability to block and mods can shadow ban.
- Comment on Did the western world just suddenly go back to pretending wrestling is "real" for some reason? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah from a physical aspect yes you are correct but wrestling has the storylines that the circus doesn’t. The Jerry springer like drama and feuds that people really get invested in with the same level of chair throwing.
