I just noticed I don't use much Gen Z slang... despite being Gen Z. This is a momentous occasion. For relevancy, Ps2 nearest neighbor graphics are getting popular these days aren't they.
Man I wish I lived in a world where intellectual property was looser so many creative things are in danger of being struck down. Also game preservation is just keeping a copy to be reused if the company wants it, it's not actually playing it, so pirates have it wrong.
I think I'm the type to really like something unintended or not designed just happening, just a feeling of "I was lucky wasn't I?" so I'll be sad to see the bugs go.
I know full well that many of these irritate people though.
That seems bit sus. Perhaps the director's crewmates are summoning their innersloth? I'd eject the idea. It seems impostirble, any overwatch 2 fans among us? I've heard that the lobbies are filled with people faking their tasks. I'm going to go back to electrical, don't vent @ me.
@PoeTheLizard and those disney bucks are earned by completing battle passes bought with vbucks in Fortnite, which are awarded when buying rubies in Mario Kart tour, which are only purchasable if you pay the monthly subscription for Ubisoft's online extras service, which is an opportunity awarded through an overwatch lootbox which is rigged to make your subscription cost less if you make wishes through genshin impact, which are awarded for completing every Nintendo produced first or second party release.

@Maxz I think it's to ease the dev cycle, and to create better feedback timing. I think there should have been some sort of non season tied content update every week, something like, new gear piece, and an item added to hotlantis. or something to do with changing a bit in the plaza.
@FishyS The motion is definitely the culprit. the marbles are something I made up as a horror example of black beady things. I made them chivalrous because I didn't want you to have nightmares about them coming to consume you in the middle of the night, no they'll approach you, wait for you to get a weapon, and attack.
@FishyS I don't get how black eyes are creepy. I mean I sorta do, but I sorta don't, they're not spiders, flies, a hive of chivalrous carnivorous black marbles coming to consume you.they're a mice a cat a dog a duck. I think the motion though and the eyelids are a different story. sometimes they are creepy
@eaglebob345 Rather than the games being vampiric, I think it is the fault of the comparison. The comparison of games to a brand's heavy hitters can feel vampiric, even if the game intends not to be or isn't at all.
This is the best RPG trailer I've seen in a long while, it doesn't try to sell me on the epic story with a bunch of dramatic cutscenes and cuts to gameplay. Good trailer.
@Ogbert Bring GladOS and the lab to the outside. I think that would create new gameplay opportunities too.
She wants to test stuff outside, so she does, and some people get involved, and that's that.
@Vix On the matter of heart in these games. The problem could be that the care or attention the developers put in fails to reach the audience. It fails to reach the audience's hearts because many of those hearts disagree with the feeling of paying to win or playing to be beaten. I disagree that the presence of uncertainty and gambling randomness brings out a lack of passion or heart in the developers. The hearts of the devs and the gambling are separate factors to a degree, I think putting all of these games under (no heart/ no passion) is not correct. I think this next statement may be faulty, but the money to continue supporting a game they want to make could be a passionate developer's hope.
