It’s a niche game in an already niche genre. Sure, Elden Ring was the first one to crack into the mainstream. But seen as FromSoft somehow managed to sell Souls fans a network test disguised as a game I’d say even if it flipped it’d be a financial success for them.

MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Embracer has reduced its workforce by over 1800 people in the past yearEnglish51·1 day agoAs much as that blows, it does make sense. They bet everything on being bought out and when that fell through they were massively overextended.
I feel like it could be. It could also just be a remark that the people who live their preferred religious rule. Without more context it just seems like poorly worded critique.

No venture capitalist has ever taken something that could be monetized but wasn’t, bought it out, and then proceeded to monetize it into irrelevancy before…

MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the big deal about Kick.com ?43·8 days agoI haven’t looked into it but if it’s anything like the Rumble “controversy” it’s that streamers/personalities they don’t like/disagree with/despise aren’t immediately banned/blocked/cancelled.

MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Inside the 'Dragon Age' Debacle That Gutted EA's BioWare StudioEnglish11·9 days agoHonestly all this reads to me is “The people who made the BioWare games you liked left long ago, and the new people can’t hack it.”
MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Games@lemmy.world•Spiritfarer Developer Thunder Lotus Reveals At Fate's End, An Action Game With Dialogue-Driven CombatEnglish3·9 days agoI was on board right up until “You’re acting like Mom!” and all I could hear was some 30-something year old child still trying to tell about how it’s not a phase.
MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Games@lemmy.world•As The Outer Worlds 2 hits $80, director says "we don't set the prices for our games" and wishes "everybody could play" Obsidian's new RPGEnglish6·9 days agoAbsolutely. Sure Publishers want their cut, but it’s an agreement between Dev and pub. This just feels like Bungie blaming Acti-Blizz for all the things people didn’t like about Destiny.

MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Games@lemmy.world•This new game Jump Ship looks interestingEnglish2·16 days agoFrom the videos I’ve seen I’m interested Unfortunately I’m only on XBSX so I’ll have to keep my fingers crossed that they bring it to consoles. They said that they are going to buy will be day and date or later on?
You read the meme champ?
Hi, I’m respectable conservative. I am deeply sorry that you are having to deal with the worse version of us.
MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have your parents ever said something so unhinged that you’re just left standing there like🧍♂️?2·18 days agoSure. But I am unwilling to just throw away people who have been my foster parents since I was seven, saving me from a drug fueled abuser who had already tried to kill me once. As such I am willing to stomach a bit more than some of my contemporaries.
MyDarkestTimeline01@ani.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have your parents ever said something so unhinged that you’re just left standing there like🧍♂️?13·18 days agoBasically anything full on Cult of Personality for Trump plus steadily increasing levels of fundamentalism Christianity. Holidays have been getting…tense to say the least.

Buddy, this isn’t the navy. The captain isn’t going down with the ship. As much as we would all want or hope for them to. If anything, them chopping their workforce down will be seen as them improving the value of the company. The investors are who they actually answer to. And they are going to want them to make them money before they pull out all their investments and crater all those studios.
