I LOVED control and the vibe in it, I read every dossier and listened to every audiolog and projection and I just wanted more by the end 😁. I really hope a sequel is being made.

But… they are literally the mods of r/antiwork, a community based around calling out unfair treatment by bosses and gathering strength to quit and find better employment.

You can’t make this shit up, it’s so stupid - it’d be unbelievable if it weren’t for the fact that it actually happened.

While they’re still mods they can still affect some level of change.

If they can’t endure even a 1 week strike on a social network then they cannot affect any change anyway because they are a completely powerless farce. Imagine how quickly they’d fold if this were a RL thing with actual consequences beyond their moderator position.

I mean have we forgotten when last year the mod of that sub went to a live interview and the whole subreddit was so ashamed they had to distance themselves from it? I think the day later they said nobody will interview anymore and they removed the person as a mod and wiped any trace of it? They are a joke, this is just another event that proves it.

Trying not to get sucked into the hype since I only game on PC and it will be years before it’s available here ;(

I used to think that too, give them the benefit of the doubt and attribute it to ambition and lack of experience. I just don’t buy it any more, there’s a years long list of evidence pointing to outright lies and misinformation done by CIG, cases of nepotism within the company and overall mismanagement. Even few years ago youtube videos documenting all of these in detail started popping up, not that I need them since I was there in 2016 for the “SQ42 demo was only hours away from being ready but canceled due to animation issues lie”, followed by a sob story weeks later and then years of silence about state of sq42.

It’s just too much to excuse at this point, at least for me. If other people don’t mind it good for them but I’m done with CIG, even if the game is completed one day I don’t see them successfully managing and maintaining it so it’s fun to play.

She’s doing the same thing as always, taking advantage of vulnerable people while playing herself off as a victim. This is hardly news or something positive about AI chat bots…

If piracy is even still a thing by then. The major pirate sites are dropping one by one and drm software is getting better and more insidiuous with every year, as well as always-online games. It’s a losing battle at this rate…

Ohh, it’s a small toggle only visible when searching by text. Completely missed it so far, thanks.

Is there anything like newpipe but for yt music? Ideally on fdroid, revanced is… confusing… to maintain.

Ffxiv? 😁

I really don’t know how to feel about him. He’s either the world’s greatest liar since people keep falling for it, or he’s genuinely just that passionate but keeps overpromising (the Peter Molyneux syndrome).

The thing is, there is no “actual game to play” that fulfills the dream that star citizen promises.

Well, at least maybe until starfield comes out.

I was so excited 10 years ago for star citizen. I played eve online and was in a corporation there with my best friends at the time, I couldn’t wait until the day we’d all be standing together on the bridge of a ship and actually fly together for a change.

It’s just been a downhill disappointment since then, with CR seeming more of a scam artist with every lie he’d make over the years and SC getting further away from that initial dream. I tried it a year or two ago and it’s barely functioning, and even less of a game. I thought that by 2020 we’d have at least SQ42 for sure, but not it looks like they can’t complete even that.

And the community still eats it up and defends the project vehemently. I’ve never seen such a fanatical fanbase that can’t see what’s in front of their eyes. And I’m still not even angry about it… just sad and disappointed.

But even that was like 5+ years ago, ancient history by software dev standards. It’s hardly an excuse for the state it’s in today.

It’s pretty good, agreed, but we’ve had procedural generation since before minecraft. It doesn’t have anything to do with ML/AI afaik.

Exactly, we’ve been getting better engines, tools and educated game devs for the past decade too and it’s what led to current situation. I don’t think AI is going to help with anything, it will just result in more soulless cash grabs if it’s used the same way ChatGPT has been lately.

So you just arbitrarily decided you want to make it harder for other people to interact with you, to bring down the quality of content here, just to feel special or something? It’s just going to get you blocked, nothing more.

I dunno, I don’t really get the appeal of everything having to be so dark and gloomy and hopeless. It felt like they had to go out of their way to make everything look shittier than it actually is in cp2077, more than it would actually make sense.

Story spoilers:

I really wish I was good enough at the game to actually see all the amazing stuff people keep talking about. As it is, it’s just frustrating and boring whenever I try it.

Please give sekiro a try if you ever get a chance. It’s like dark souls but for people like us that want good fun gameplay instead of constant bs :D
