My dude missing a point blank shot. That’s some XCOM-bullshit accuracy!

I’ve never been one for the “fandom”. I just like the pretty pictures. Otherwise, the term has so much baggage since it’s so all-encompassing that depending on your social status or workplace, you might not “survive” it coming out

Ah, I have nothing I’m hiding from anyone, and I’m totally not posting this from an alt-account

It’s actually pretty impressive that there weren’t more lives lost. The whole situation sucks and should’ve been avoided, but once it happened, I’m surprised it was “just” five

Am I the only one who feels the whole thing seems so off? Why would gay furry hackers be asking about catgirls? I struggle to see the sense in that. Sure, two women in a relationship are also per definition “gay”, but I doubt a media outlet would use that definition.

Did someone do it for the meme and then blame gay furries because them being in IT positions is another meme?

The whole thing doesn’t add up.

I love the arguement that you couldn’t make blazing saddles today because if you handed the script to a producer, they’d take one look and go “we can’t make this! This is just blazing saddles, and it came out years ago”

Wonder if “One-Eyed Johnson” carried the same connotations then as it does now. I imagine it did and this was done on purpose

Whew. I was almost starting to get worried

I agree with this. I find myself regularly missing the middle of the road games with lower development costs because those are the games that often dares to try new things.

Last one I remember like that was Ubisoft’s “Grow Home” which was utterly charming and had me hooked from beginning to end. Didn’t need to be big. Didn’t need amazing graphics. Just needed a little idea that (pardon the pun) grew to become a really engaging game.

More games like that please! Maybe the development costs didn’t have to balloon that much.

Oh hey, it’s diskun! I dunno why, but I find him adorable!

I understand the point now. Thank you! Good explanation!

It still doesn’t seem entirely equivalent to me. We’re not talking about them giving out the source code. We’re talking about how shit it is that something like software already installed on your computer just no longer will work.

Or let’s use your analogy; why not just abandon the facility instead of shutting it down and chasing everyone away?

Like, don’t get me wrong. I understand that this is the nature about always online stuff and that it can always be closed down like a theme park, but I feel the conversation is more about “why did they design this like a theme park without an abandonment clause instead of a shut-down clause. Historically, most other theme parks have been fine with being abandoned”

And I mean, I’ll agree with you that it’s nothing new, we saw it with Overwatch 1 and countless others, but I feel it’s a conversation one should be able to have without it being dismissed?

(I may have read too much into your comment, but it felt like it was dismissing it as a non-issue since theme parks work like this, when this is not a theme park)

Not often I get to say this, but I completely agree. I HATE the walled garden that is the PS store. 90 usd for FIFA? 130 usd for some random GOLD edition of a ubisoft game? No way. Let me pick those up dirt cheap two months later at a retailer who is having a sale, or from someone who has played it and is ready to sell it onwards.
